Angie and I just finished unloading the last few boxes! Our
gorgeous new house needs a little love and attention but I think we can spice
it up just in time for an end-of summer homecoming party. I am happy to say that our new
permanent address is 112 E. Cherry St. Olde Town East, Columbus Ohio. I love the sound of that, E. Cherry
Street- it sounds so welcoming and happy.
We haven’t met any of the neighbors yet but our really good friends Brad
and Seth just bought a beautiful new home together one street over on E.
Rich. We did a quick drive through
the neighborhood and there are quite a bit of rainbow flags flying high. It makes be proud that we can bring
some bright colors to the skies of Columbus.
We know at least 5 couples that have moved into the
neighborhood over the last 6 months.
Everyone seems to really enjoy it.
I am most excited about our house being a work-in-progress. I can’t wait to see it transform
because of the work Angie and I put in together. That’s the best part of this whole change- Angie and I are together and we are finally surrounding ourselves with people
who care about us. When we moved
out of Toledo I felt like we could finally breath- we came here to find a place
where we don’t have to dress the way other people want us to or suppress who we
really are. I have accepted who I
am and Angie and I are finally at a place where we want to settle down and stop
letting others dictate how and what we do. We are finally home.
I just hope everything is as peaceful and as happy as I always imagined
our first real home to be.
