We married in 2006, and moved to Newfoundland where we bought this house in 2008.<br /><br />But all that is contained in <a href="http://oceansedge.livejournal.com/">my other journals</a>. This journal details the our ongoing adventures in building our life together here in Newfoundland - literally. Our many adventures in real estate, renovations, building, renting, buying, selling, all towards a lofty goal.<br /><br />We've always worked on a 5 year plan - "The Plan ®". "The Plan ®" has always been an ever evolving thing and it changes and grows and mutates, but it's always been a looking ahead to where we want to be 5 years from now. Of course where we get 5 years from now may be a very different place.<br /><br />Mostly this is the story of a life in renovation.<br /><br />However, <b><i>PLEASE</i></b>, this is in no way <i>ever</i> to be construed as professional advice. Many entries will be tagged "making the mistakes so you don't have to". We're just a couple of reasonably capable, reasonably intelligent, fairly dedicated 'Do-It-Yourself'ers. There are many jobs, many times, when we will be consulting with the professionals and I highly encourage you to as well. Still with a little common sense, and a good bit of planning there's a lot you can do for yourself.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=the_plan&ditemid=455" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
