I've taken a long hiatus from blogging, in part due to my long work hours and other time consuming pursuits (which I'll elaborate on further) but perhaps mainly because I've lost interest in social media as a whole- why did Google have to kill google reader!?  I haven't missed blogging because it's been nice to just live in the moment and not try to document those moments, however, I do miss the record that my blog has become. So while my life isn't any less hectic, I'm going to attempt to blog semi-regularly again because I don't want to lose these moments to my horrible memory.

The big news and most time consuming element of all is the fact that we bought a house...a huge house. Dan and I decided to take our experience as apartment managers and purchase a multi-family home. Knowing we couldn't afford a single family home in Boston, we opted to forgo a condo and use the subsided income from renters to get a little more bang for our buck.

We ended up getting a lot of bang, because we found a house in a perfect location that needed a lot of TLC. It is the renovation work and lessons learned in this adventure that I want to share and document.

 Here's our new home, built in 1890:
