Moving Back Home

Due to a long chain of unforseen events, we have decided to move back to our home town. We've been here for a little over a year, and it has been good, but I personally prefer my home town, and look forward to moving back. It is a very nice place, and my husband has been offered a good job there.
We are still looking for a place to live, and haven't really decided if we will buy, build, rent, bum, or a combination of the above options. We would really love to own our own home, but haven't yet found anything we love that is in our price range. Building would be nice because you can get more bang for your buck with sweat equity, but do we really want the stress of building a home? Renting is okay, but we really want a yard and the freedom to do whatever we want with our house (not to mention it's a good investment). Bumming off someone else is not actually on my list of options; I was just kidding about that.
I'm not a good decision-maker. I agonize over which shade of lipgloss to buy, for Pete's sake! How am I supposed to make a big decision like this? I have the feeling we're going to have a lot of ups and downs before we really get settled, so wish us luck.

Glad to hear Andy's got a good job waiting for him. Good luck on the house hunting! I get stressed out by that...we'll probably never move as a result.

We don't know yet. We just put an offer on a house. If we get it, we won't move back until mid-October. If we don't, we might just end up renting and move sooner.
