I think we're done spending money

I didn't realize how much money a house requires. Since we've moved in, it seems like our bank account is constantly bleeding. There's paint to buy, small items to repair, rugs, major appliances (we had to replace the dishwasher and oven), furniture (because we couldn't just have a futon in this nice living room), tools, yard tools, pest control, etc etc etc. I think we're just about done spending money in large quantities. All that I really have left to buy is a new mailbox and that's easy enough to get. We do have longer term plans (like a multi-game table for the den early next year) but for now, we're focusing on paying off bills. I've got quite an aggressive schedule and if we can stick to it, we'll be in pretty good shape in about 5 years or so.

And every day we wake up or come home, we both think to ourselves how much we love our new house. :-)
