Living the American dream

     Pride of homeownership.  In my case it's more like "stress of homeownership", owning a home is expensive, especially as a single person.  I closed on a house on Tuesday. It's a tiny, two bedrooms, one bath bungalo.  It's cute as a button, and I believe it will be even better once I put my personal touches on it.  But I have already been putting so much money into it.   Paying for paint and fixtures and the contractor to do the work.  I also have a mortgage now.  It's slightly more than what I pay in rent. I'm in debt for the next thirty years.

     But ignore all my complaints, this investment will be worth it!  The American dream, I've got a house, a dog but not the 2.5  kids and a husband....
