That's beautiful!I decided to paint again yesterday. This is the outcome. It's called "Community" because I'm feeling lonely.
I would like to buy a house but haven't had much luck. I offered on a couple but got shot down and it was probably for the best. House prices here are insane. There are also a lot of historic houses that are in just awful shape because they haven't been cared for and/or were college rentals so got a lot of abuse. Many are selling with the thought that a developer will buy and tear them down for apartments but that's so crazy - we have several new apartment complexes going up but already so many unrented homes sitting empty and college enrollment is going down. We have a new biosecurity place opening up which many think will bring in new jobs and people, but most of those jobs are being filled by people who work at the university and the university can't afford to replace those individuals in most cases.
I do like one house that is on the market but my dad says that the sewer in that area is really bad and it wouldn't be a good buy. I'd like to find somewhere close to town but with either a good sized yard or a little out in the country. I grew up on a farm and I miss the open space + my dog is reactive so he would love if we didn't have people wandering by all the time.
