Decade

We have lived here for ten years. It doesn't feel that long, and it feels like we've always been here. Such amazing good fortune, such a marvelous decision. All our big decisions have proven to be good solid choices. Not perfect, perfection is neither possible nor desirable. But we have a good house, a good car, a good sofa, terrific cats, and we still adore each other after over 30 years together. 

I've been writing a page longhand in the Tibia notebook nearly every day.  Although it's been nice for my general state of mind, it feels like digging the moat - which has not started to fill up with creativity yet. Or at least not in terms of words enough to write here regularly. 

There is time. However rapidly it whizzes by. 

Happy Houseaversary, House!

Ah yes the years do get away from us, don't they. I had to ask SWMBO but she told me we moved here in 2017. The first of June. On the 16th of that month she fell on the back patio and fractured her femur. Not a good way to start a new life in a new home but 4-and-a-half years later we're still happy here and, like you two, with each other. Happy Houseaversary!

Having a home you love is a huge, huge blessing. And someone you love living in it too is wealth beyond compare. Congratulations!
