I finally got a piece of the piiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee!

I know, I know... it's been a while... but I've been busy and the weeks have stormed by. Anyway... about a week ago I celebrated my 1st anniversary as a homeowner. Last May I decided to give it a go and stop paying an enormous amount for rent. It took me four months to find a place, and get a mortgage. What an experience that was. I swear my mortgage broker was the most incompetent person in the whole wide world! He was a nightmare! For months I followed up on emails and calls.. his customer service was at an all time low. But in the end it was worth the wait. Few things have ever felt better than the moment I picked up the keys to my condo. My mom was with me, I just wish my dad could have come to town to share the moment as well. To some my place is rather small. But it's enough room for me, and it's mine. It's in a great community, and everything I need is just a hop, skip, and jump away. (except for the mall... but that doesn't matter cause where there's a will there's a way!)When I moved in the walls were just white.... but with the help of my imagination, betterhomesandgardens.com, and The Home Depot... I transformed it into a jewel box.
Welcome to my home!
