flipping.

We looked at a house today in our neighborhood. It's a cute, historic shotgun house on a great up-and-coming street at an unbeatable price. The only problem is, it needs intense renovations. The previous owner started it off but left a huge mess and the bare bones of a house. Floors, heating and air, kitchen, bathroom, windows, doors, closets need built or replaced.

Half of me thinks it would be so much fun to create a home — kitchen, bath, yard, bedrooms, etc. — exactly to our specifications. Half of me thinks we'd have to be insane. Could we handle this in our first year of marriage or would it lead to certain divorce?

  1. I'm just feeling that we could handle building a home in our FIFTH year of marriage!
