Getting Settled

Slowly getting situated and realizing that this isn't just a vacation, this is a new life. Still shocking to run to the grocery store just for a few things and end up spending at least $50. Spent the afternoon touring town and searching out real estate FSBO. After an exhausting search I think we have it down to 3 different houses that we affectionately refer to as the dapper house, the green house, and the cranberry house. We still need to tour the cranberry house to ensure it's spot in the running, otherwise we are down to the pros and cons list of each property before making an offer. It's amazing what the variety is in real estate up here and justhow much your decision is based on curb appeal and location in this town. We drove by a couple listed as for sale, and scoffed at a few more asking prices. Also trying really hard to fight the temptation to buy more house than we really need. It is exciting to be thinking of wall colors for painting, potential layouts, and actually having matching furniture pieces! Say good bye to those college days and hello to the young professional life stage.
