And We’re Done
We’ve been paying both rent AND a mortgage for the last 8 months. We’ve been paying lawn maintenance and insurance on a house we don’t live in. I’m glad we sold it, especially in such a crappy market. It’s a HUGE relief to be out from under that financial responsibility. BUT.
I loved that house. I loved that neighborhood. I loved my neighbors. I planted the fringe flower out front. And the petunias. And the daisies and lantana in the back. I LOVED the floors that we put in. I loved that I painted the entire inside of the house, and I LOVED the colors I chose. Sure, there will be other houses, but that one was special. It wasn’t the first house we ever owned, but it was my favorite. I hope the new owners appreciate how great that house is, and I hope that it makes them feel as special and welcome as it did for us.

I’ll miss that house.
