Last Sunday was our moving out day. It was our first day to be independent with my in-laws. We were living in the same house for two and a half years. You can just imagine how difficult for me to leave. Right now, I am feeling a bit sad at the thought that we are far from them and at the same time happy, because we are now starting as what couples should be.
As we started, we ended up renting a small apartment in Sta. Rita, Bulacan. Since we don't have basic stuff like plates, spoon and pork, etc., we went to market. Haggling made my day as we have some P10-20 discounts on every item we bought. Also, glad to know that tiangge day here falls on Sundays.
The most enjoyable part was organizing the whole house. Actually, it was good to see that we started to move out from his parent's house. We can now buy our own things. Before, I was hesitant because the area is a flood prone. And, since my hubby guaranteed that this area is different, we can now start to buy our own little by little.
I wish, there will be no problem with my neighbors or anything 'coz now I am imagining things I want to do in this house like learning how to cook, starting to put my indoor plants and having a well-organized home. And, how I wish I could instantly pay for our lot and have our own little house.
Adjustment will be quite big especially in doing household chores, either you'll be surprised that you need to do everything or you'll be unloaded with some chores. But living as a couple independently is the proper way. You'll learn on your own. And of course like you said, you'll be able to buy your own things :) Good luck to your new phase. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAll the best with the new house. I'm sure you be able to cope with the changes and enjoy the time together as a couple in your own house.
ReplyDeleteI find that exciting...especially buying stuff for the house :-) I'm sure you'll be a good home maker. Oh congrats also on the new blog domain. It's like moving to a new home also, with all the familiar stuff intact hehehe. By the way, what does the ".tk" stand for? Does it cost less than ".com" or ".org" ?
ReplyDeleteSo far, hubby's cooperating with me. hahaha. I told him to help me with house chores like washing our clothes. If he's the first one to arrive, he cooks our food. I hope this will be our routine talaga.
ReplyDeletethis is what I hope also. We are starting and it is quite new for both of us.
ReplyDeletei baffled from your heading - "Independence Day", hahaha
ReplyDeletecongrats with the new home...enjoy it
That's great! It's fun having your own place. You can do anything you want with it.
ReplyDeleteI think that's the most exciting phase, fixing and arranging things up the way you want them to. Our house is so cluttered I just dream of emptying it first then putting things in one at a time.
ReplyDeleteShopping with the hubby for things for the house is very fun! It's like working on a project together!
ReplyDeleteGood for you to have your own now. At start, it will be really hard especially if you don't have things at all. Shopping is really enjoyable.

ReplyDeleteChange is frightening most of the time; but we all need to grow and experience things. I'm sure your independence will make your family stronger and closer.
Yey, am sure this is a happy day for you. Enjoy every moment of having a house of your own. You will have a lot of plans for this. LOL
ReplyDeleteoo nga, parang bahay-bahayan. yan din sinabi ng mga ka-office mates ko
ReplyDeleteThis is a big step for a couple. Mahirap na masaya. Parang you will start kasi from scratch and unlike before na may ibang tao to assist you, ngayon kayo na lang talaga. Next target should be house of your own. Good luck!
