It makes one wonder what one has to do to obtain the house they desire. But I've always thought that those that have faith, will finish up with the right house, naive I may be, but there it is. Well done beautifully written minute poem, good luck to Patty, blessings, Roy

    Hi, Roy;
    I'm trying to keep a brave front. The housing market in our area is fierce, and my wants/needs mirror those of others. I know it will happen the way its supposed to,

A very well-written minute poem. Sorry that you missed out on the house, maybe it was not the best one but the better one will be come your way. Just wait patiently.

    Hi, Sandra;
    I don't do well with 'patience,' and so I rarely pray for some. Someone once told me that's the sure way to end up needing it!

    Thank you for your understanding,

Home ownership is a blessing, but it is also not such a blessing for one living on a limited budget and living alone. My hose will be sold in the spring as I already have a buyer. Patricia

    Hi, Patricia;
    Congratulations on selling your house. I know it will be sad to leave your place, but think of it as a new adventure when you move up north.

Oh no. Too bad about the other house - that sucks. Do you just rent now? Owning is great. I hope you find one soon.

Perfect minute form.

    Hi, Teresa;
    Yup; we sold our house when the kids went out on their own, and we've been just renting and doing the things we want -- but its time to find a house to settle in. I miss the little bit of gardening I do and just being able to paint a color I want AND not have to deal with noisy upstairs neighbors!

I enjoyed reading your wanting a home poem. I do understand. Between now and the first of the year my class of children traditionally change due to moves. I don't understand it.
