Well actually I bought a house a while ago and have been meaning to get something like this up and running since early on. But for anyone out there who has also purchased an older home that "needs a little work" you'll appreciate how little extra time there is for frivolous things like blogging, sleeping, etc.
So while this endeavour is starting out maybe a bit disingenuously with what will be in the following few days a series of postings recounting some of the disasters ehrm.... milestones that have occurred up to this point, going forward it will be more of a day to day or event to event rant about the cruel injustice and staggering economic burden associated with homeownership. Not that the upcoming posts won't also be along these same themes but they won't have quite the same intensity as what is likely to come up in the future as I've had time to calm down and collect my thoughts on what has passed but in the future will be sitting down while my eye is twitching in the middle of my blind rage and frustration at whatever further disaster or injustice has befallen me.
Although I may whine and complain and wheedle and grouse a lot (because I stick to what I'm best at) I am truly happy to be in a place that is mine and to have escaped from the drab world of beige that is apartment living.
