Offbeat Home: Playing house is not my next adventure
I’m on Offbeat Home today, talking about our decision to wait on buying a house. It’s something I’ve mused about on here before, but this post is pretty good, if I do say so myself. 🙂
Our search began with houses the size of our friends’, but ended abruptly when we decided babies were most likely not in our future. Then, we looked at town homes and condos, only to realize that sharing a wall again was not ideal. Then, we looked at smaller houses, all of which had something seriously wrong with them because they were much older, as no one seems to be building modest-sized houses anymore. Then, our realtor said to me, “Ashley, you’re going to have to be the one to pick this house. You’re the woman, and women are the ones that play house.” Direct quote.
Yes, but god forbid you make any financial decisions about said playhouse….dear god…
Oh, I’m just going to quit my job and have babies. Don’t you know?? 🙂
