Contemplating Moving

Before you think I'm crazy or plain ridiculous to suddenly feel like moving into a new home despite not having an actual call to do so, let me tell you the reason behind this sudden inspiration!

Firstly, my friend DD who was previously living in the condo unit right above mine, just moved into a new house. She has a garden now since she moved into a proper landed home, with more room for her two year old to jump about and run around! I'm not saying that my current condo home is tiny, far from it. In fact, there are 7 different designs to choose from here and the one we purchased is the biggest unit of 1250 sq. ft.

And then, my blogging BFF LadyJava also recently moved into a new condo. She has been offline for days now, waiting for our local internet provider to reconnect her connection. Seeing her blog about the move and all the packing and renovating she did last month got me reminiscing about the time when we first we moved here.

It was almost three years ago I believe and I still remember that feeling of excitement as we moved our stuff bit by bit into our new home. The actual move was so tiring and I remember after finally moving all our boxes and furniture here, I just collapsed on the bed in tears. It was mostly from exhaustion and I was also overwhelmed by the fact that B and I did everything ourselves. As tiring as that weekend was, I somehow managed to unpack all my boxes and put away everything within the short duration of 2 days; even I was amazed at my diligence and speed!

So anyway, after having two very good friends moved into new homes, I too am enticed to look for a new place; a change of scenery if you will! Of course B thinks I'm a little crazy but I know he too secretly likes the idea of us moving to a fresh new place. He'd get his own office and finally a garden too if we decide to opt for landed home instead of another condo. I just have to continue bugging him to see things from my point of view!

Having said that, the real estate market is not doing very well right now, at least at my end of the world. So to put up our home for sale would be another issue deterring me from my wanting to move into a new home. It won't be easy to sell of our home and surely it will take some time. I could always opt to rent out our unit but I think both B and I would feel better if we sold the house rather than renting it out to a strange tenant. So we'll see. I'm not saying that we won't ever move, but for now I still have to be patient until a realistic solution comes along.
