Well The Big Move Has Come And Gone. Lots Of "First" Which Is A Welcome Change From All The "Last".
I Know I May Have Whined A Bit Over The Move Of A Lifetime. I Hope I Didn't Come Across As Boring. I Think In Actuality I Was Reaching Out. Why? I Have No Idea. I Left Home When I Was Seventeen To Join Uncle Sam's Canoe Club, Even Though I Had Never Seen A Canoe. That's An All Together Different Story For A Different Day.
My Reason For Mentioning This Is I Have Learned To Adjust To Different Homes Over The Years. However As The Old Saying Goes, There's No Place Like Home.
It Wasn't Until Today That I Explored A Part Of Our New Home. I Knew This House Had An Attic. Billie Had Made Herself Clear She Was Not Interested In What Was "Up There". She Left The House Earlier In The Day And I Was Just Finishing Up Watching The Noon News. I Pulled On The Chain That Allows Steps To Come Down. I Ventured With An Open Mind. I Was Amazed To See One Large Size Room The Length Of The House As With The Width With Slanted Walls. Plenty Of Storage Space She Lost With The Extra Spare Room At 713. Will We Use It? I Have No Idea. Time Will Tell.
Our Grandfather Clock Has Not Been The Same Since The Move. I Hope To Find Someone Who Makes House Calls.
This House Has Less Electrical Plug Ins. I Am Slowly Trying To Make This Home.
Our Neighbors To The South Enjoy Their Music As Well As Sharing It Too.
We Had Our Closest Neighbor Welcome Us To The Neighborhood. No She Brought No Pie.
She Did However Welcome Both Billie And I And Gave Us A Brief BIO Of Their Lives. We Likewise And Before You Know It You Mention The Right Name And The World Just Got Smaller. I Wish She Had Brought Me A Pie Though. She Assured Me The Neighborhood Is Good With The Exception Of The Music Players. I Was Told By A Friend That Knows Them Well That They Normally Don't Stay Long Wherever They Live. I Hope They Carry On Their Tradition.
Did I Mention I Mowed The Grass For The First Time? I Did That Yesterday Afternoon. After It Was All Finished Billie Scolded Me About Abusing The Fence With The Lawnmower. I Found My Self "Nudging" The Fence Instead Of Mowing Beside It. That's The Only Thing I Dislike About A Chainlink Fence. The Grass Is Time Consuming That Grows Beneath It. You Have To Mow On Both Sides And I Find Myself Going Through More Than The Usual Amount Of Weed Eater String.
Even Though This Past Week Has Been A Different One I Can Say I Certainly Feel Blessed To Have A Home. Tonight As I Write This I Am On My Home Computer Enjoying What I Like Most. Playing Euchre, Reading Forums, Exchanging EMails With Friends And Relatives, While Some Have No Homes At All. A Friend Of Mine Is Presently Without Power And Water. What We Take For Granted, Some Must Take One Day At A Time. My Heart Goes Out To This Family. I Have Been Trying To Keep Them In Candles And Lamp Oil. There Is Hope For Them Down The Road.
A Wise Man Once Told Me That No Matter How Bad Today Is For You, One Day You Will Be Looking Back At It. We All Somehow Manage To Cope With Our Tribulations.
I May Look At Things Differently Than Others. There Must Be A Reason Why I Am Witnessing The Poverty Of Others. I Cannot Pretend They Are Not There.
I Feel It's My Mission To Help Others. Why Else Would God Bring My Attention To This Affliction? Next Time You See Me Hand Me A Candle Or Lamp Oil. You Know Where It Will Go.
Back To The House. We Have Been Here For One Week Now. Each Day Is Getting Better.
Oh I Also Found That It Also Rains On Friday On The East Side Of Danville. Ok, That's Another Story Also. I Will Tell It In Time.
In The Meantime, I May Not Have Gotten That Pie I Had Wished For But Friendship Last Much Longer Than What A Pie Would Anyday.
Let It Be Known I Would Never Turn Down A Pie...Just Call Me Mac
