I was elated to learn earlier this week that my condo unit was ready for turnover. I accepted it a couple of days ago and was instantly overwhelmed by all the work that it entailed -- the renovation, furniture shopping, decorating, packing, moving, utility transfers, and the list goes on...all while I'm trying to juggle work and the semblance of a social life.

I met with the builder today and the plans for the design/layout are already in place. Now I just hope I can make it happen.

I'm just so happy to have reached another milestone in my life. Somehow I knew about all of this from since I was a kid. I knew everything would turn out alright. Now they're turning into reality one by one. As I daydreamed of this years ago, images again popped into my head as I looked out the window of my bedroom-to-be. However, this time  I have only a few more months to daydream before I finally get the real thing.

No more dealing with nasty landlords or landladies or making do with apartments and rents. Dreams do come true, and I'm proud to have made this dream come true. Not that I didn't want or need help, but I knew it would be more fulfilling in the end if I could do it all on my own -- just because I would know I gave it my all and wasn't slack about it.

As this lap of my race almost completes, it's time to think of new goals to reach, and new things to daydream about...
