Well Oldest and her Husband have left the building and alighted in a roost on the other side of the Mighty River they love with home for geese, cat and the Mighty Dukers.
What a challenge this three years has been for us all.
Our house has a buyer. We close in two weeks and have to be out five days later.
We have a home home waiting for us in Santa Fe…
She is a lovely Lady Fe but she has fallen on hard times and after several days of wieghing if it wise for me to commit to what she needs for the price we can have her, I have decided with the loving happy support of Husband that we will indeed take the Lady on.
Her skin needs whole repair, her flat roofs need new, her heated floors are subject to a great big fail, she has mold and mice and the scars of age and lack of care. The list is long. But so is mine. And once we bring her back to snuff, she will just radiate her glory in every way.
I am realizing I have wanted this kind of house project my whole life. And here it is. I am Cancer, after all, and house is shell. I keep growing so I need to change my shells.
It is profoundly sultry here today in this here Gorge. Air is still and Hot. Front is coming on by Saturday. Our bedroom will be some thing tonight.
But I am happy for the first time in quite a while. Freedom…
It takes a bit to shed the Mother in a Cancer. My girls are oh so able and of course I will always be their backup. There is a difference in the backup vs. landlord without rent=“i am grown and living under Mom’s roof AGAIN!!!” We all had trouble finding peace about that. But we learned so much about each other.
Damn, I love you so very much. And you know, if Covid fallout makes life shit, I am making sure we have a haven for my Ladies and their Chosens and a place of peace from which I will radiate Light to all of you.
