Today I said “This first time homeowner thing is hard,” and Serin said “So you should blog about it.” So, I’m blogging about it.
The first couple of days I was in the new house it didn’t feel like it was ours. I have been a renter for so long that the simple idea that I [...]
Serin and I have been homeowners for 2 days now. I signed the closing paperwork Friday afternoon.
(More pictures at my Flickr.)
Serin will be coming in on Friday, and we will be moving the bulk of the stuff from my storage unit on Saturday. I’m spending this week moving stuff from my mom’s house and getting [...]
Things are moving fast lately, and I’ve been at something of a loss to know what to write about. I mean, there’s plenty of stuff to write about, I just don’t know where to start, and I don’t know what to say.
Serin was in town this past weekend. On Friday we went and looked at [...]
I’m a technology girl. I work for a company that makes its money off the sale of technology products, and I am an avid consumer of these products myself, particularly computery stuff and wireless communication stuff. Meaning I like laptops and cellular phones.
This past October I upgraded my phone from a sturdy Samsung model that [...]
Like Serin said in his writing place, it’s hard to top an entry like the last one, so I’ve been sitting on it and just letting it linger there at the top of the page.
Serin will be here in about 5 days. I can’t wait to see him. We’re going to look at houses together [...]
The title of this entry seems fairly unambiguous. I said yes.
(If you’re new, go here to catch up.)
You know, I was going to go into my reasons for saying yes. I was going to talk about my thought process. But the only person those things really matter to are Serin. What it comes down to [...]
Apparently I like taking pictures. And my new camera makes it ridiculously easy to take good ones.
I was going to stop at the Riverwalk on my way home from work, but I decided I was tired and didn’t want to have to find parking, so I came straight home instead and took a walk around [...]
I’m enjoying my little nature walks. I don’t feel like I’m getting a lot of privacy lately, and walking around taking pictures affords me a few moments to be introspective and introverted. Of course I realize most beginners focus on flowers and whatnot. They’re easy subjects. I think I might take a trip downtown Saturday [...]
I was feeling pretty stressed out and overwhelmed this morning. There was no particular trigger, just a sense of hugeness in the decisions I have to make in my life right now. I had stress dreams last night, so I know my mental state is really quivering, because I only have my stress dreams (usually [...]
A couple months ago I used a gift card that I got for Christmas to buy a new digital camera. My previous camera was a 4.1MP Nikon, which took nice pictures but was big and clunky, so I didn’t tend to carry it anywhere, and it didn’t see a whole lot of use. I’ve been [...]
