I am done with New Year’s resolution, I am most disappointed to find out at the end of the each year that I have not fully accomplished each of what I’ve listed at the beginning of the year. So I am christening them this time appropriately by labeling them as “goals” or my “bucket list” 🙂
Several dozen items hum in my head once I started thinking about goals or bucket lists, there are travels + places to visit, schools for the little one, things to buy, among others. + one of the most prominent ones is “buying a new home.”
I have only experienced renting for a few months + I realized that it will be much more practical to look for something that is rent-to-own, that way, a few more years down the road, the property will be ours. This is a lofty goal, I know, I do not even have the bank account to support my plan, but am thinking even if it is not possible to purchase a new home this year, maybe I can look around for prospects or ask my friends for invaluable suggestions.
Turned out one of my high school friends, Rochel, is now working with a local developer here in town. She visited me last Thursday + showed a few of their brochures. We’ve also discusses possible options for when I decide to purchase a property from them. I have found this particular home in one of their subdivisions which can be very ideal for my small family + fits our budget, too. We’ve scheduled to see the model unit by next week. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate so it’ll push through.

I am participating in a blogger campaign by Bucks2Blog for St Louis homes for sale and was compensated. The views + opinions are 100% my own, however.
One of the things that I love about December is meeting up with my lifelong friends. Busy with their own families + affairs, we hardly have enough time to catch up on each other all throughout the year. The Christmas holidays are the only chance we had at meeting up + rekindling old, familiar friendships. And last December was equally special as one of our friends, Ella, was here for a short vacation. She’s working in the US + has stayed there for over a year now.
