Post by M KfivethousandI hate winter there is nothing to do, and i do not drive anymore so it is worse
I am going to travel some now covid is letting go
But in the summer i am at the pool all day and it suits me.

There’s no good in your eyes anymore
And it makes you want to drive home, drunk and alone

"Hiding"
One house I saw is ten times larger than our house and is two floors not one, plus has a carriage house
If we had kept the house and yard to the standards when we were younger, it would have sold for more
My sister showed me some old pics of my father's landscaping
It was gorgeous, but neither she nor i were able to get it back in shape, we tried very very hard
Same with the house, huge holes in the siding, ceiling a total disAster, bathrooms disgusting
It was all i could do to fix it up as much as i did. Like fixing the roof and putting in new range
Never could find handymen for concrete and patio, i would call, they would not show
My father knew how hard i tried, and ma wanted me to sell it anyway, so my father sent a buyer to make it easier
Given how run down the house was, it was a fair price
There were a handful of small houses like ours that were a bit run down, but similar design in our neighborhood
all sold for less than ours
My sistervand i looked closer at this house and thought maybe it belonged to an old classmate, but we looked closer she lived a block down
In looking it up, we found her married name n, she is awidow, and her mom died from covid this summer

If she did, she never did say so to daddy
He often left her all alone
She didn't mind the stayin' home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers--To Daddy
