Google has updated the view of my house, from space, not street view. Looks like a couple of weeks ago. The neighbor was having a yard sale and our new shed was being built.

Well staellites go over regularly.

I have successfully weaned myself off my meds.

I just couldnt be bothered going to the Drs every 6 months to get the script refilled - so done.

Never fear, I have been weaning myself off for well over 2 months, so you are all safe.

Im just a tad grumpier at the kids, although that probably has something to do with the freaking neighbourhood kids being at my door every 2 minutes...or I may just be generally bitchy.

Come to think of it, I think my Mirena is due to be replaced, so it may be massive PMS since I havent had MS to be P about for nearly 5 years.

Sounds like all of the above to me.

Geez, if you'd been here 5 months ago we could have weaned ourselves off meds together.

My arms are cold!

Yes, I have a short-sleeved top on.
In fact two, once I started feeling chilly I did what any reasonable person would do, and put more clothes on. I have very few long sleeved tops. And I donated my three jumpers (sweaters) for Diz to sleep on last year.

I'm just not used to being chilly inside.
Brrrrrrrrrrrr!

Sleepy-bo soon.
I'll warm up then.

I was on my way to C-bus and passing through a town that has a number of beautiful old homes along the main drag.

I see a for sale sign. I see the house it's in front of. I want it. I want it badly.

(Of course I still want my log home in the wooded country, too)

I want to get it win I win* the lottery and have enough cash for what is probably high heating and cooling costs and upkeep.

But it's a castle! Look at it! Would you look at that?

*win I win, typo...i'm keeping it. It's sure to be prophetic.

I saw on the realtor's site that it does indeed have a full basement.

5 bedrooms? It'll be the Dwellar Home Away From Home. We'll have parties and soirees and teas and luncheons and music and wine and song and and and...

Wow, built in 1896. I wonder if it's got remodeling restrictions? Because I love the structure, but that wallpaper in the entryway has got to go.

Not really to my taste...
... but it is a hell of a lot of house for the price!
If that house was in Aylesbur it would be going for about £1m.

You can get that size house here for that price, but not that style. Housing markets are good out here, but most of it is no more than 15 years old.

Surprise.

I like spooky old homes with nooks and crannies and passageways and hidey holes.

Or log homes.

McMansions are shite. Not worth the nails they're haphazardly put together with. Oh but oh, everyone knows I live in the rich section of town.
