Biting the big one

I haven't posted in a while because honestly I'm not even living in the RV anymore. At the beginning of November a friend came to us and offered us their home to rent to own and my husband jumped at the chance head first without thinking it through. We weren't in the place financially to get back into a home but here we are barely treading water. Every time a bill goes into that mailbox I wish I was back in the RV but at the same time I don't miss it either.

It's nice not having to back out of each other's way so we can pass. I had a love affair with the kitchen for two months after moving in here. I've turned into the cupcake lady at my husband's work because I'm always making them for them. It's nice to have a private bathroom.

The drawbacks! The first 4 weeks here I stayed in the bedroom because the house felt to dang big. I couldn't handle the master bedroom because of it and we are now living in the guest bedroom and looking for a roommate to go into the master. Then there are the bills and bills and bills and bills.... I've also gotten so used to being in the RV that we have yet to turn on gas service in the house for the heat. Our friends we are buying it from are upset about this. It's also to quiet here. I miss hearing the fighting and kids playing in the RV park.

I will continue this blog as I think of things and if anyone would like to co-write it with me please let me know. I've actually started another blog about living with empty pockets and how we are making it on next to nothing without government help.
