A friend once said she wanted to like Mike Rowe (from Dirty Jobs fame) from "stem to stern." I laughed repeatedly. Then made my sons turn on that show because she was dead on. What is it about a man with serious hands-on skills? That we feel safe with them? Or just know that something will get fixed without drama...whatever it is, yum.
It's a given. Moving sucks little green frogs. It turns your life upside down and inside out and makes you weep for the good ol' days of not packing your life into cardboard squares. Can't wait for this to be over.
To be honest, I'm rather sick of this whole moving thing. I swear, I'm never.moving.again. Honestly. Bury out back, I ain't suffering through this crap again.
Then again, I've said that before. How honest was I then?
About as much as now. But I really mean it this time.
Really.
There's nothing like a calm, flowing river in which to dabble your feet, go tubing, splash a bit in the hot summer sun. But when the river gets angry, stay away. Do not wade. Do not tube. Do.Not.Enter. For an angry river just does not want company.
It was lust at first site. Four walls, a skylight, stainless steel appliances. I.Want. And then the house inspection showed a new roof was needed, extensive wood rot...at what price house lust? You can always buy appliances later.
Not everyone has them. Pity. More need them than not. How else can you chew your food? Bagels especially. Wait, not molars? My bad...
