What's new
So I was going through things and I saw the link to this blog that I used to keep. It's been so long since I've written anything. I've been having trouble sleeping and one of the things that my doctor suggested was writing things down. Maybe I'll try just by writing on this blog.
A lot has changed since I used to have this blog. I am now living back in North Carolina. I gave up on my grand DC experiment. I was just working so hard and so many hours and I was still living paycheck to paycheck. It was killing me. I decided I had to make a change. I accepted a job in Charlotte with the Federal Defenders of Western North Carolina. It is similar to what I was doing before, but now I work on federal cases.
I still have my condo in Falls Church, VA. It seems like everyone else in the world made money in the housing market. I, on the other hand have a condo that has dropped in value like 30%. I mean, come on! What am I supposed to do about that? I have someone renting it now. That's a help, but it doesn't cover both my mortgage and my condo fees. Thankfully, the cost of living down here is so much lower, I can rent a 2bed/2bath and cover the loss in Virginia. Let's all pray for the housing market to improve.
