On the drive home tonight, Ryan asked me what would be the first thing I’d do if I won a huge lump sum of money right now. He says he wouldn’t really do anything. He’d spend a little extra money here and there, but he’d wait until our lease was up here, buy a house, and then tell me. lol
Melony has been remodeling her house so she buys a bunch of new stuff after every paycheck and I told her Monday night I couldn’t wait to do that. She thought I was nuts, but really, I’m so looking forward to it.
I mean, I know remodeling can be a huge headache, but I’d love to find a great house, in need of very few repairs, and just go in and make it mine. I just don’t have the patience to start from scratch and have to make every little decision, ya know? But I’d love to have a house and be able to just go through and decide what I like and want to stay, and what I want to change–what I need to do to make it our home.
Of course, most of it is wishful thinking, I actually have some pretty realistic ideas of where the future will find me, but it’s definitely fun to dream. I’d like to think one day we’ll be in a position to hook up with somewhere like Outer Banks and have a nice, cozy getaway. Or even just be nomads altogether. I’m pretty confident that I could get used to moving around all the time. Especially right now when I’m not considering children. Getting settled and just having to pack right back up would obviously not be ideal, but in the right situation, I think it could be something I would see as ‘worth it…’ I guess for now I should just be focused on making it through college, huh?
