BID no 54. Make at Least One Huge Purchase You Can't Afford

- check

Sometimes life just don't turn out the way You expect it to.

When my best good friend in the world and I separated about a month ago, I found myself without a place to live. Due to long waiting lists for a rented apartment, I went looking for something to own. And, now I find my self as the owner of a small townhouse, just the perfect size for me and my children.

And hey, of course I couldn't afford it with just my savings. That's just the way it works in Sweden, You are not supposed to pay for your house today, it's your bank that benefits from your house deal while you just live in the house the bank own. So, with loans up to my neck I am moving on in my life.

But hey, at least I got to check another box on my BID-list! :)

That was MY thing I couldn't afford-my house! I had just left my husband and I didn't even have any furniture so I had to buy a bed and really basic stuff too. I had to get a second job for a year just to keep my head above water but it's so worth it. Congrats!

Äntligen har vi fått ändan ur vagnen och satt upp insynsskydd i köksfönstret. Nackdelen med att bo på en gata som ligger så nära allt som vår gata gör är att många passerar under dagen. På kvällarna har det känts som att bo i ett akvarium när det...

As I wrote before I feel a bit restless right now. Don't feel too creative. So when I got this vision in our ugly hallway that by the way is going to get a real makeover when the TV-room is done, I just felt the need to get it done. It couldn't get...

Yes, it is quite some activity in this blog right now. I feel a bit restless and a need to be creative. As I don't have a whole lot of money to spend on such things as painting material, photo development or interior design, I think this is a perfect...
