House Depression
Last week, I was beginning to feel major house depression. That is what I am calling the feeling that you'll never have enough money or time to renovate your house the way you would like/feels it needs. Combine that with the fact that I have NEVER wanted to live in the same place for the rest of my life or even a good portion of my life. I moved to Miami 6 years ago, fully expecting this to be a temporary location. Now, I am married & we've bought a house. For the first time in my life, roots are starting to sprout and I am not sure I like it. I have always enjoyed the adventure of moving to a completely strange place & meeting new people. Don't get me wrong - Miami is a STRANGE place, but I am not too impressed with the people. I have a couple of friends here, but in general this isn't a place either Steve or I would pick to settle & develop long lasting relationships.
Back to the subject - last week several of my friends from all over contacted me to congratulate us on the house. I really enjoyed talking to them and began to feel that desire to flee this place. Then realizing that we are strapped down to a house was quite overwhelming. After a long weekend of manual labor, I am too tired to care. I just want to finish the initial fix-ups and move in. Perhaps, next month I'll start dealing with the other wish in my life - a baby. :)

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
