I’m new to this!

So my very good friend tells me that having a blog is theraputic.  I thought I’d give this a try to express myself.  I’m new to this so please bear with me.

Speaking of new I have recently bought a new house!  I’m 34 years old and finally have purchased my own house.  I swore to myself I’d never move out of San Jose.  I’m comfortable here.  I have my family right here. I know my way around.   I have my Sharks (and boy do I love my Sharks!).  I have my work.  I have my home. 

I have a new house now.  I’ll be moving into it in July.  But it’s not a home yet.  My family is 2 1/2 hours away.  I don’t know my way around.  My Sharks are 2 1/2 hours away.  My work allowed me to move but I’ll be working with new people.  And I’ve lost my home.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to have bought the house.  I’m just new to all this.  And new is scary.  New is exciting.  New is my house.  Brand new.  I’ll be the very first person to live in it…exciting.  I’ll be the only person living in it…scary.  Well, I will have my dog.  She’s good company.

And I do have another good friend living right across the street from me.  So I won’t be completely alone.  I’ll have lots of the comforts of home all around me, but no home yet.  But I’m up for this new adventure.  I need this new adventure.  My life has been good thus far, but I’m ready for great.  I’m ready to find somebody with whom to share my life.  I’m ready to start my own family.  I’m ready.

Ask me right now if I’m a “homeowner” and I will tell you no, I’m a “house owner.”  Ask me in a few months and I hope to tell you I’m a “Homeowner.”  But as I said earlier, I’m new to this so please bear with me.
