Done

We closed on our house on Wednesday. It was not a pleasant experience, and we have learned a lot in the past 4 years about being homeowners.  4 years ago, we thought it was a wise investment to buy a house. Nobody knew that the market would fall, and unfortunately our house sale was affected by it. Because of our unknown future whereabouts, at this time buying another house just doesn't seem like a wise investment.  Yes, it would be great if we could take advantage of the market right now and buy a new home at a good price, but our situation won't let us. Brian's fellowship will be at least 3 years, and after that we don't know where we will live.  Part of me really doesn't like this, but it is what it is and we have to deal with it. On the other hand, I do enjoy some of the excitement of moving to a new city and what changes it might bring.

I am trying to remain positive through this whole process, and trust that things will work out for us in a way that we are happy. Until then, we are on a roller coaster that never seems to end.
