Anyway...I'm not buying a house, but I did sell a house. According to the contract we close October 3rd. It of course is not completely done yet, but looks like it might really be happening and I'm not quite sure how I feel about it.
This place has been home for almost 4 years. It's the first "home" I've really had as an adult, and we put heart and soul into making it ours. Which is probably WHY it sold. We have "designer flare", and made wise choices about the colors of our walls and how our furniture is positioned. I like terra cotta and it gave us more seating room. Functional AND pretty. I should start my staging business now.
I will especially miss the neighborhood. I have made some great friends, and there is nothing better than taking Gizmo for a walk and knowing most everyone you encounter. It's been great not having to drive because we hung out on our deck and drank wine, and it's been comforting knowing that should anything happen while away someone is bound to call us (or scale our deck and close a door that blew open--as one neighbor did shortly after we moved in).
The question is where do we go from here. We seem to have different opinions as to what comes next. Lake house, rent or buy.
Vote now, and enjoy a homemade dinner at whichever place I end up.

I can't believe you aren't freaking out about where you are moving to next. . .or are you?
Yes, I am, but dealing as I knew this would happen--just knew. We have a lake house so worst case scenario we camp there for a few months...it's about 30 minutes from work, but not conducive to maintaining any sort of social life.
