A year ago I bought a house.
It was definitely the biggest financial commitment I'd ever made and represented a major life change. After spending the 5 years after college renting in Boston and living with roommates, I was moving back to Maine and living alone. But, it all felt so right that I knew it was the right decision.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE being back in Maine. I mean, I can see this every day of my life.
And it has been wonderful to reconnect with old friends. There is something special about a friend who has known you since you were a dorky kid.
And, I have learned so much about owning a house. I have constantly amazed myself with the things I learned to do.
reupholster chairs? no biggie. |
refinish my kitchen cabinets? okay it sucked, but was so worth it! |
