I swear I was going to TRY to garden for the next year. With recent approvals to USAA Platinum Rewards, Discover IT and Chase Freedom as well as an CLI at Cap1 I was done. Went online to check my USAA account and there it was, a pre approved USAA American Express offer staring me right in the face. Next thing I remember, was seeing......

First, congrats on the new TLs. You have some great cards.
If you are going to be house hunting, which means a mortgage, then yes, it is definitely time to make your way to the garden. You need to let the new CCs and inquiries age.

I am definitely going to garden now. Im actually starting to feel a little app remorse now. 4 new cards in a period of 2 weeks is making me feel guilty. I am excited to get in with some fine prime lenders and my dream came true to get in with AMEX but there is always this little voice telling me "tsk tsk tsk".

CONGRATS!!!
Gardening is something you have to WANT to do, if you don't want to do it you'll never achieve your goals.

Congrats on your approval. Just like the others have posted- gardening is a mindset.
