Being patient and learning to be happy and grateful with what I've got (because I've got a LOT, I know) has been a challenge and something I'm striving to work towards every day.

This time, it was near the end where you first start to compare your house to the one's across the street, then realize that you've put a lot of work into making your place feel like home and that that's more important than "keeping up with the Jones's" as they say. That's a wonderful realization, and something I struggle with a LOT. I'm super impatient and tend to want things to immediately be the way they could be in the future if I just keep making an effort. You know that annoying in-between stage of growing your hair out? I feel like I'm living in that phase right now, haha. But as you've said, doing the work is totally worth it in the end, and you can be proud of yourself for doing it. Congrats on finding a house-soulmate, even if it's just "for now" :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05288533010611643097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-35548985618871811682016-07-24T00:49:23.014+01:002016-07-24T00:49:23.014+01:00Happy home-versary Jaime!

And saying that outloud (or even typing it, in this case) is hard for me to admit. I have an on-going anxiety about committing myself to one place. But it's perfect for the right here and right now and for the foreseeable future." --- totally get this. I hope you and John make more memories in this puke-able friendly house of yours.

I like the puke test idea, definitely one I'll be using ;-) I can totally commiserate with the retching and puking as that happened to me only a month ago... it spanned three days of endless throwing up and the toilet becoming my BFF and finally a desperate dash to the hospital for an IV to make me okay again. <br /><br />I digress. I'm sure you've filled your house with plenty of cool and kitschy interior stuff by now to feel cosy enough! <br /><br />Cherie | <a href="http://www.sinonym.uk" rel="nofollow">sinonym</a><br />Cheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10935124380775824539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-57648298731559453332016-07-22T14:31:14.912+01:002016-07-22T14:31:14.912+01:00Aw, thanks! xopxopxoAw, thanks! xopxopxoAngloyankophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798135990583648390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-56899739352597650722016-07-22T14:31:02.678+01:002016-07-22T14:31:02.678+01:00Try it!
