Home Base

This past weekend we were privileged to play host to Madame E, ERR, ERR's mother and sister and sister's boyfriend. They were in and out all weekend for a wedding that had more events than a pre-k beauty pageant. But, while they were there, we got to visit with our old friends and our new ones. These fine folk were also happy to pitch in with advice or back strength while Doc and I painted. Now that the house looks so wonderful, I'm loathe to leave it.

Yeah, Big Orange, I put that beauty pageant similie in for you.

I have mixed feelings about leaving. First, it's just a house. I've tried not to fall in love with it like I did with the stone house in the country. It's too heart breaking to love a place and then part. But, somehow, I've ended up loving this darn place.

I guess home is where the heart is and when you leave home your heart gets damaged in the transfer. I don't think a ceremony would help. Just a whistful backward glance.
