Becoming a home owner

After months of stress and road blocks we have finally bought a house and we moved in on Wednesday. It does not quite seem real at the moment as we have been moving and ferrying things between our old house (a rental) and our new one. Mark and I have also been cleaning like maniacs and we both managed to get pretty nasty colds and unfortunately we just had to push through it to get everything done.

I have realised that even though we have problems from time-to-time that when things are full on we somehow manage to balance each other out through most things. It is quite funny that the things that stress me out do not faze Mark and then vice versa. So when I am in full on meltdown mode; Mark is calm. I really have to apologise for not being myself and being a total bitch for the last few months; we were really just trying to hold it together until we managed to get across the line. Also, there were a lot of RPM classes that usually ended in tears for me.

A week out from moving I had a massive anxiety attack during Body Attack (how timely) and had to leave early. I went and got Wendy’s and bawled my eyes out while eating my burger. In retrospect I think that it was a combination of doing my second ever B.A. class on my own and I have realised that when I am with strangers my anxiety goes WAY UP. Also, who new trying to co-ordinate my feet and arms would be such a mission and it’s not like I have not done aerobics in the past!

Thank you to the people who helped and supported us; you have been AMAZING and without you we would not be where we are now! Huge love to my work colleagues who have put up with me through this process!

So here’s to our house! It also has a hobbit wall!
