The year has been long…

This year has been full of planning. We planned a wedding, picked out and are almost done buying an amazing house… by this time next year our lives will be completely different. Possibly. Maybe. 

New scenery at least. A tree lined mid-century street, a 12 ft skeleton holding a “Black Lives Matter” sign in the front yard, a million skeleton lawn flamingos, a yard that runs almost endlessly to a small creek in a forest, an attached garage with cursive numbers above. 

Maybe a kid on the way, maybe not. Who knows really? But we are one step closer to having a shared home.

Which means I will have to say goodbye to mine. A house a bought all by myself. My simple little brick home with any luck will be sold by the Spring and the money from the sale will be invested back into our home or our children. It’s been a hard road both in home ownership and home finding but we’ve been lucky. 

My dad always said I had the Harris luck. The Harris’ had a way of landing on their feet he would always say. No matter how bad the situation we could get out, we could turn it around, we could find the brighter side. That part of that was in me. That builder, planner, adventurer, and entrepreneurial spirit that my father always had - I have now too. 

Anyway the year has been long and eventful. We’ve lived so much life this year that January feels like 5 years ago.

So here is 5 years of social media posts spread out in one year below with no context.

See you in the next decade, or century, or era…
