I've started this blog as a place to share what is happening with the purchase of our first house. Consider it a way to know what's going on. I know you are all just dying to know anyways. So bookmark the site and check back for updates. Who knows where this will lead.
Where do I begin? You have already figured out by now that this a collection of my thoughts, stories and the tale of how found and bought our first house. I should have started this weeks ago. I've always kept a journal. I may not write in it every single day, but it has been something that I've done since about 4th grade. For Christmas that year my Aunt gave me my first diary. At first I wasn't sure what I would write about but I soon learned that even writing about your daily activities could provide some relaxation and closure for that day. In 7th grade it was a requirement that we keep a daily journal and it was then that I really started to write and record my thoughts. I still have that 7th grade journal, I filled 2 compostion notebooks that year, and I love to pull them out from time to time to read about what I wrote. I also started at this time a personal journal. I used a composition notebook this time instead of the small, teal, cat covered diary. I've kept all my journals that detailed my first modified soccer game, the first "real" dance, friends, first love, graduation, college and pretty much just life as it happened. I've not written or reflected in a journal as much as would like in the last 5 years. That issue of "not enough time" seems to be the cause but it's time to change that. So I'm upgrading my journal to a Blog and sharing it with all of you. Because I know you are curious to find out how things are going with the quest to make our first house our home.
