2 months ago, my landlord asked me to move out, so he “could reclaim the space.” I was already talking to my girlfriend about buying a house together. I could not really afford to do it alone.
So…Wow! We bought a great house last Friday and are trickling things in.
For those that care to compare, it is a 1925 American Foursquare, in an older neighborhood that is in pretty good shape. We paid $187,500 for it. Here’s a link, (with the realtor/owner’s furniture in it): http://www.flickr.com/photos/wahig/2477661522/in/set-72157604767104121/
I got the big orange basket that I bought at World Market two years ago and started throwing clothes into it. I used these rules: 1) have not worn in a year, 2) truly worn looking—give it up already, and 3) you will not be that size (larger or smaller again).
