Fizzle! ME??? Why I never...

Ok, so yeah. I probably picked the wrong time to start a blog, as following my first post, we bought our first official home and relocated!!! IF I had decided to write during this time, you would have found me at a very interesting, roller-coaster of a time. ALAS, my big, romantic vision of blogging was momentarily blocked with another romantic vision of a home, decorated impeccably, in a beautiful neighborhood, footsteps from school. Ah, the bliss.

Previously, we had lived in a get-on-your feet kind of a place. Dumpy neighborhood. Shifty neighbors. Rocky driveway that lead to a street where drivers chose to zoom at about 50mph, despite the occasional child riding a bike. Yeah, I know. I seriously didn't want the kids playing outside much, unless I was with them.

Now, we have entered a dream-land of sorts. Cul-de-sac. Trusting neighbors that bring cookies to to welcome you to town. Yes, "The American Dream".

Uh oh. I'm not sure I like the whole idea of "The American Dream". There's something cynical behind it. Something unhealthy, living behind a wholesome- enough looking disguise. Yes, it promotes, materialism, greed and debt. Things I would like to change about myself in-particular, and things we need to change as a culture!

Despite all of that beezwax, I am still happy with our new home. THIS, is where we are chosing to live, create lasting memories, raise our rugrats. THIS IS HOME! Ah, wonderful!
