I'm finally settled into my new house. I've still got to hang pictures on the walls and finish breaking down the boxes for recycling, but that's it. It's so nice to be in my own home again. I was never comfortable renting. It's not your house, even though it's filled with your stuff. This place is all mine (mortgage included, which I don't mind since it's a hell of a lot less than what I was paying in rent).
I've got several long-range maintenance issues that I'm facing - A/C, roof, and water heater replacement- but I've got a few years to save for those. New furniture is another big-ticket item on the horizon. I'm sure I'll paint the rooms to add some flair to the place. The flower beds in the front and the back need some work. But right now, I'm happy to just look around and know it's mine.
