Homeowner’s Paradise

What is the paradise of a homeowner?  Some would say, it’s to never own a home again.  Why else do you think retirement communities exist?  However, for a new homeowner, the paradise is the home.  I’m not gonna lie, there are definitely times when I would look at others my age and think, “Why the heck do they have a house? I don’t have a house.”  Clearly, I should have been working a lot harder to get a house quicker.  Well, that’s all done now, because I own a house.  For a cheapo like me, it’s not the easiest thing I have ever done.  I enjoy holding onto money and homeownership really sucks it out of you quick.  I digress from the true point of this post though… and that’s to show some pictures, which people wanted…

Thanks for the pictures...Congratulations! it looks like you have done a good job of settling in. Have you checked out antique stores for chairs? Not knowing San Antonio I have no other suggestions...

"For some reason Molly really wanted this picture"... That closet is made up of awesome, long walks on the beach and rainbows. It's a girl thing. Also, I covet your fireplace and kitchen table. That would look amazing with high back chairs covered in mismatched fabrics. Congratulations!!!!

Oops. I meant dining room table. Guess who still lives in an apartment with a kitchen/dining room? :P

Though Dimiter and I count ourselves in the "never want to own again" category (see comments about sucking out cash. see also: our griping out leaves/gardens/mowing etc.) This is CUTE! Very nice. Congrats!
