Ever heard of a 31 day challenge? It’s where bloggers commit to writing about a particular topic for 31 days straight. No breaks. No weekends off. Just 31 days of post.

And today, I start my second 31 day challenge with The Nester {last year I wrote about being a newlywed!}.

And word on the street internet is, that there is a whole website devoted to 31 days!

Day 1

Last December, we moved to a new city and found a condo that we’ve called home these last 10 months.

It’s the perfect size for us. Actually, maybe too big if I’m being really honest.  Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a laundry room, an open kitchen {just like I wanted}, and a very low maintenance backyard.  If all that weren’t enough, we’re conveniently located near everything in our city, and just joined a gym that is less than a mile away.

But here’s the thing: it’s not ours. Well not technically anyways.

We are {dun dun dunnnnn} renters.

These last few months I’ve found myself really wishing we owned a house even though I have no idea what is involved in home ownership.

So instead of continuing in this attitude, I’ve decided to be content to rent.

What I’m being reminded of though, is that being content touches so many areas of my life.

So maybe you’re not a renter, maybe you’re just hoping and dreaming for that so called next step in life.  Well then, this is for you too.  It’s for all of us really.  May we find joy and contentment right where we are.

So here we go – 31 DAYS: Content to Rent!
