Welcome to my home

Posted on | June 15, 2007 | 14 Comments

I have a place to hang my birdfeeder. With evergreens and a porch, Cat helped us with our new home. The porch is lined with tile, the kitchen has an island big enough for my salsa disasters and cooking fiascoes. There’s a bus stop outside my front door, and our property is lined with sidewalks. Yes, we have a corner lot! It’s in a lovely area of Portland, and has enough room for us and our dreams. Did I mention the basement? Yes – there is a full basement with cable wired, so D can have a huge office for himself. The whole house has been redone, and I have a porch. Did I mention how much I love that kitchen? White doesn’t make me scream with that place. Warm colors abound, and yes, I think that room is actually orange. I hope the porch is as purple as it looks. I’ve always wanted a purple house.

This is where I sing the praises of Cat and Alexis. There’s nothing more invaluable than the love and friendship shared by sisters, both blood and soul. You can’t ever understand, and I will never be able to express fully my gratefulness. Thank you seems shallow, and I will pay you back feels underwhelming. Alexis braved the axe murderer house for us. Cat, well she got the open house. It’s up to you to decide which was the more harrowing of the two. Regardless, they are ever welcome to my home.

It’s begun, my loves.

   The saga continues with this place, but as of now – Cat’s going to meet the landlady and we are going to try to go from there. Cat’s already seen the place (from the outside) and says its perfection. So cross your fingers and toes !

   Well then, sweet. And, as you can see, I have really good reading skills, for an English major. Sigh. Must be Friday.
