Home Sweet Home

A year ago today I became a condo-owner. It's amazing how fast time flies. I wish I had some grand statement to make about the anniversary, but I don't. It's good to own the place, but to be honest, it doesn't feel all that different since I have a management company to deal with the pesky details of building maintenance. And my condo was pretty much brand new, so I haven't had to deal with any big issues of repair like some other new owners might. Still, a year later, it's nice to not have to deal with a rent increase or the debate about whether or not to move. And sure, I don't feel like I've fully moved into my condo — there's still some decorating I want to do — but it's home. And it's mine. And today, that feels pretty darned good.
