But if only I could resolve in my head why after putting so much into buying the home you then have to spend so much on the little things inside it. I have spent hundreds on wall coverings, nick-nacks and <em>stuff<\/em>.  Taken things back that looked great in the store only to look&#8230;uh&#8230; so-so in the house.  I&#8217;ve come to the realization that I&#8217;ll be buying stuff for the house for a long time, so I better figure out a better way of doing it. It was interesting yesterday when the fridge was being delivered, the delivery guys had a washer\/dryer on their list for me too (I didn&#8217;t order that by the way).<\/p>\n<p>Now, I pride myself on being a true spiritual person, but for a couple minutes I did think about just shutting my mouth and taking the three appliances (one intended for me and the two that were obviously a mistake).  But I know there&#8217;s a higher power that has made all this and my life in general a great place and that He was looking at me hard for that minute!
