Keep getting the odd new house that comes on to the market from the agent where we are moving to. Nothing matching what we want yet, either too close to neighbours or needs too much work inside. At this rate though we will have something we like very soon and our house will be up for sale even sooner once the garden is finished. It shouldn't be too hard to find somewhere away from neighbours that is up to date so we don't have to do too much work. We did a lot on this house and don't want to do that again or live somewhere that we are not happy with the state of. It takes a lot of effort, time and money to do up a house and we are at the point in our lives where we can't do that any more. We just want to be enjoying our lives as is.
Speaking of which, going in to the office the last couple of days felt weird. I've not been doing it long but working from home just feels so much more right than the long drive to the office, doing stuff in my cube for the day with the very occasional interaction with someone else then a long drive home. Being able to just look across at my wife and still get my work done and get paid for it is so much better. It can't be stressed enough how this should be the way for people like me to work. It really is a relic of old industries that everybody goes to a physical location to do their occupation. Virtually nothing of what I do is physical as it were, it is all logical stuff running on a computer somewhere that I rarely have to physically touch. That is the whole point of networks, making the physical location of something irrelevant. Therefore the logical conclusion is the physical location of a person is irrelevant as well.
So here's hoping that something comes up very soon. It is all within our grasp now, we just need to see the proper place for us and make it happen. This should be the final hurdle to us being somewhere we can be happy at.
