My kitchen was red for 6 years. <BR/><BR/>I like to talk to my neighbors from time to time, but living near them is quite the drag. I'd like to erect a 20 foot wall in between one pair and us. He's a nuisance. <BR/><BR/>I hear ya about the gardening. It's so much work and I almost regret putting in so many pants through the years. I wish they would stay tidy and small. No such luck. <BR/><BR/>P.S. I tagged you for Link Love on my blog.

When something-or-other broke as I was moving into my new home the friend helping me was all "Just remember to tell the landlord or whoever about it." Then it dawned on us we'd breeched the grownup world, where there is no "landlord or whoever" anymore. <BR/><BR/>The realization was only enhanced when he said, "I guess that's you, actually. And wow, you're a bitch-landlady; I wouldn't want to deal with you."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22856583.post-85920777417605189962007-05-31T16:16:00.000-06:002007-05-31T16:16:00.000-06:00Owning your own home and being able to say it's mi...Owning your own home and being able to say it's mine, makes it wonderful. <BR/><BR/>Happy TT!YellowRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03255195547378048503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22856583.post-44475819812679705272007-05-31T14:45:00.000-06:002007-05-31T14:45:00.000-06:00Great list of things, and you saved the best for l...Great list of things, and you saved the best for last.

While, yes, it's our home and a part of me does love it, I am tired of taking water from the sewers (that I pay taxes for to be maintained), my roof blowing off in storms and generally something or other falling apart on a weekly basis. I guess it's half a dozen of one, six of the other. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes I just think of the time we could spend together having fun if I didn't have to work overtime to pay for a new furnace. And the subsequent gas bills......sigh......it never ends!!!<BR/><BR/>Happy TT<BR/>Jessica The Rock ChickThe Rock Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04653277401124290907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22856583.post-25300072886460655742007-05-31T09:43:00.000-06:002007-05-31T09:43:00.000-06:00I am all over #4.
