Finally A Home

I signed the papers on my first home. I'm excited and nervous, but mostly excited. My contract gives me §15,000 towards the purchase of a residential lot. I chose a nice sky blue condo downtown. I share the property with non other than Fiorenza, the producer of Pahala Shore, so that should be interesting. We share the common outdoor areas-including the pool, barbeque and bare lawn that I plan on renovating into a grand garden. My condo has three levels, the basement level includes an one car garage and basement kitchen/dining area and a half bath. The first level, where the main entrance is located has the living area, full bath and balcony overlooking the pool and downtown views. The third level includes three bedrooms and one full bath with access to the roof.

I have some renovation plans in store for the condo. First of all, I'm converting one of the "bedrooms" into a full bathroom, then I have to decorate-which I'm leaning towards a modern japanese influence, then the balcony rails are so high and thick (for privacy the real estate agent said) that you can't see into the pool or the surrounding downtown area. And the views here are really nice. On one side of the condo is a beautiful park which I'm just dying to visit and take a walk. On the other side is a famous resturaunt that is uber expensive, but I'll visit one day-maybe if I win some money during our casino outing.

I have a cold, so I took some medicine and am taking it easy. Drinking lots of juice and sitting down and napping as much as possible. Egh, the cast members keep getting sick, I think the producer and director will eventually send us all home for a few days to make sure the virus doesn't keep bouncing around. I suppose I could browse some internet stores for some furniture. It feels weird to spend so much money, but...I'm trying to enjoy things while I can, but not get into trouble...

Until next time
