March Challenge - Day 7 and 8

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item

My most treasured item, assume one can call it an "item", is my house.

Christmas lights!

Growing up, I assumed that one day I would own a house (plus get married and have 2.5 kids). As I got older and started working, I discovered that buying a house is a big deal and not at all a given. Then there was the housing price boom, where housing prices in San Diego (which are already very high) doubled on average. Just a few years ago, it definitely seemed like buying a house wasn't in the cards for me.

Then, housing prices came down, my income went up a little and I found a perfect, little craftsman bungalow in my neighbearhood. It isn't perfect, but it's mine and I love it.

April 30th will be my two year anniversary of homeownership. Yay!

Day 08 - A picture that makes you laugh



It's just so freakin' RANDOM.

lolololol
