More ponderings

So at dinner last night, DH & I talked a bit about house-hunting (brought on by our Idiot Neighbor). DH came up with another possibility, given that we may not be able to find what we're looking for, at an affordable price, in the next few months. He brought up the idea of renting a house for a year or two, while we keep looking for some acreage outside of town, instead of buying a house in town and only living there for a few years. Now, that would be an improvement over what we have now, since a house would presumably have a yard, more space, etc. However, it would mean moving twice instead of once. Plus there's the whole inertia factor - we need to light a fire under our butts as it is.

But the idea of moving twice gives me a headache. If we were only in a house for a year or two, we'd probably just leave most of the stuff packed up, and most of it's been packed for at least two years already. I don't want to think about all the duplicate things that will turn up when we're finally in a house and can unpack everything. The Mother of All Yard Sales will be happening after we move, I swear.
