As I mentioned in another thread, I have been working on buying a house. On Wednesdaqy my offer was accepted, today I got approval on the financing. So, by the end of the month I will be in a home I own!
I have been really drained by the entire process, especially as I have had to fight my arrogant realtor (she has been worthless, I have had to do everything myself, as she keeps screwing stuff up).
Anyways, I found a GREAT house. I love it and am so excited!!
But, at the same time, I am tremendously depressed. This is an enormous milestone in my life, and I don't have anybody to share it with.
I always figured I would be buying my first house with my engaged girlfriend, or something to that effect. Instead I am worried about how I am going to move everything, as I don't even really have anybody to help.
I'm worried about being isolated. Right now I live in a townhome, and all of my neighbors ignore me. I don't even know their names. If I have my own house, I will be even more separated.
I hope it will be different, but I don't know any way to make it different. I don't want to be some weird kook that all the neighbors wish would move.
So, in any case, I am celebrating with everyone on this board. And on the bright side, I have a nice big back yard, which means I can finally get a dog!
