@content.byfran: 12 long years it took me. To buy my own house with my own garden and my own driveway (the non-negotiables I wanted!!). Life isn’t what I thought it would be at 38, but you know what, in some ways, maybe it’s better than what the reality might have been, and I trust that what’s for me won’t pass me. My home isn’t a palace or insta worthy but it’s MINE and it’s what I’ve always dreamed of. Kinda chic, don’t ya think?! 🤭
