It's official. Chris and I are homeowners! We closed on our house in Poulsbo today. I am half dazed by it. I have wanted my own home that I could paint and change as I see fit, for so long. A place to honestly call our own. But with military life, that's not always a reality. Until now. Finally we are moving home. Even if we have to move again (which we will....because it is the navy after all) we can still rent it out and move back when we are done.
In the past 9 years that Chris and I have been married, I have lived in 5 states (he has lived in 7) and I have had 7 different homes. You don't want to know the tens of thousands of dollars we have wasted on someone else's mortgage. Not any more!
Never again will I have to deal with white walls. Or mini blinds. or ceiling fans! Finally I can put my interior design degree to good use! Oh happy day!!!
So, today we join in on the American dream, suddenly a few hundred thousand dollars in debt, but totally overjoyed.
BTW, if you need a good realtor....I know an awesome one!
