Big Dreams, and Silly Pass Times


Here is my confession.  I have the silliest obsession, and I am sure it is not healthy.  Awhile ago, I cam across a House Plan website, and I have been hooked ever since.  I have developed a new past time of looking for my Dream Home.  I guess that it is not a new past time; ever since I was a little girl I have loved looking at floor plans.  I don't know why, but I can just get lost staring at house designs, trying to envision what they will look like built.  I enjoy this so much, that sometimes I think that I went into the wrong field; I should have studied architectural design instead of Health and Wellness, especially since I spend more time with house plans and real estate (ie apartments) then I do with work out plans and diets.

There are actually quit a few house plan websites.  Some of them are really cool, you can do an "Advanced Search" and list everything you want in a house, and it will filter through thousands of blueprints, and show you all the plans that meet your criteria.  I have a binder full of floor plans I like, and pictures of design elements I want in my house when I grow up.  Awesome, right?  Well, I think it is.

In fact, I have found my dream house.  You can click here to see all of its details.  One day, when we are rich, and can afford things, and Tom has a successful practice, and we have paid off his student loans, and we have saved up a lot of money, we just might build this house.  I guess we will have to see.
