Found the quote: I could see my reflection in the window and in the retina of my eye the whole earth and sky could be seen and reflected. ~Kalpana Chawla
That is truly beautiful. And really breathtaking when you consider what it takes to get to that moment.
AH! I knew I missed a piece along the way. There you go!
...I like my house, and I figure in the end it will probably be worth it someday, but damn sometimes I get freaked out thinking "What if it burns up/falls down/explodes? What if I need suddenly to move? AHHH IT'S TOO SCARY!"
House~ma for you, java! Your place is adorable and I hope you can make it yours!
I'm getting ready for a rummage sale on Friday and Saturday. OMG, my house looks like an episode of hoarders! And we don't hang onto crap the way some people do. This is mild. But. So. Much. Crap.
It's nice crap. I hope people buy it all.
all this house talk. there are still 2 houses real near me and I think a buffista should buy at least one of them. for serious.

Because the job market is so good down there?

Good lord, having just moved, I know what you mean. My intent is to keep purging as I unpack, and to purchase very consciously from here on out.
Don't be an ass, the job market sucks everywhere. DFW is probably better than most.
I need to spend some time thinking on my own professional path. Uhrg.

I'm not being an ass. I just don't think msbelle is finding work worthy of her talents.

I think I might have mentioned that when we moved here, we found a box in the Columbus house that we hadn't touched for the entire 9 years we lived in the house. We tossed it out, unopened before we moved. We figured if we didn't need anything in it in 9 years, we never would. It was sort of liberating.
