This weekend was relievingly work-free, so Katie and I spent a good portion of time yesterday tending our front and side yards.
Today, we both helped make a delicious meatloaf dinner.
Overall, it feels really good to be homeowners. Our roof’s insulation is fantastic – we have not felt any of this year’s hot days while inside our house.
And it’s great to know that the money that leaves our bank account each month goes toward something we own, instead of making money for a faceless landlord or rental agency. Even I’d mortgage rates have fallen since we locked down our loan.
Also, it’s fantastic to be able to accidentally create a hole in your wall and have it be no big deal.
I need to cut my fingernails. Like my hair, I never cut them with any regular schedule. I just wait until they’re an inconvenient length and the cut them out of spite. I need to work on that.
