This whole home ownership thing is starting to overwhelm me. I never thought buying your first house and making it into a home would be such a difficult task. First and foremost is the responsibility of being in financial control of the property; as in the furnace quits you have to pay. Mostly though I am having a hard time deciding what kind of house I like and can afford all in one. I've looked at couple of houses so far, but nothing has wowed me. There was the shit hole that needed a lot work that I could get probably cheap, and then the decent not overwhelming house in good shape in a good neighborhood that I could be just alright with. Maybe this is like settling on the right woman. Yes, it may be a short term thing, but there is a lot financially a stake. I need to take care of it, be willing to improve the situation, and most importantly feel comfortable in my environment that I have chosen, and not feel that I want to back out at the inopertune time. I guess, just like my pitiful love life, I may be being a bit picking on settling in, or down in the woman department. Oh well, I am who I am, and am no hurry to rush into anything to soon. But afterall, If a woman wears a red dress one night and I don't like it, I can wait for tomorrow. But if the house comes in red, I might have to settle with it for a while.

First and foremost, you shouldn't settle on anything, not a woman, not a house not even what you are going to have for breakfast. If you settle for any one of these things the only thing I can guarantee that you will be living with is regret. The right house is out there for you, keep looking you will know when you find it, it will feel right. Same goes for the woman.
