We Are Homeowners Again

We closed on our new house today. For the first time in almost eight years, we own a home that is not a business. I have been looking forward to this moment for . . . almost eight years.

And yet, my overwhelming feeling tonight is not elation or excitement, but exhaustion.

We first saw the house during Memorial Day weekend and made an offer within the week. That was when simple and easy ended. I hadn't realized fully how stressed I was until I walked out of the attorney's office with the key in my hand.

Hopefully, I'll snap back to normal by tomorrow morning, because we have a lot to do!

Congratulations! Judging from the pictures I saw on Facebook, all the stress will be worth it, that house looks awesome!
