Today we're off to look at some more houses and their surrounding neighborhoods. The areas we're looking in are hit and miss; a beautiful house on one side and a boarded up crack house next door...ah, good times. I think we're both a little confused at this point as to whether we should buy a house before we leave the Midwest (not to mention leaving the country) for 5 months. There are people here who would check in on the place while we're gone, but it still would feel strange. It would be like getting a new puppy and then leaving it alone for an extended period of time. Hopefully the house won't crap on the floor while we're gone, but you get my meaning. It feels...neglectful. I would want to be here, painting beautiful colors on her walls and cooking yummy meals in her kitchen. (Stay with me...we're not talking about the puppy anymore. AND we're not getting one! At least not at this
juncture.)
So...ummmm...what was I talking about again??? Oh yeah, $20 oil changes at Valvoline...er...no, it was puppies. Noooo...HOUSES; that's it!!! We're looking closely at a house near downtown Indianapolis. It's old, big and beautiful, and it needs some work. It's priced right and we want to go take a look at the inside soon. We walked around the property today. We could have gone in, but that would have been trespassing. Why? Because it said so on the window. It was really tempting though. We both kept looking at each other with a mixture of excitement, fear, confusion, exhaustion at the thought of doing all the work needed...but we could both see the amazing potential of this house. So tempting. Could it be...the one?
Peace out, peeps.

funny post. Oh i wish i was with you both ... i would have totally went in... i carry a get out of jail free card with me at all times......can't wait to hear how things went.
The oil change was great! The house...not so much. It has been taken off the list. It's sad that someone let that beautiful home get in such a bad way...
