There's a Stranger In My (Old) House
Every Sunday, the Commercial Appeal runs a feature in the paper called “My New Home,” which highlights new homeowners and their newly-acquired properties. This Sunday’s story featured a little house that looked quite familiar.
Yup, that is where we used to live.
At first, it was a tad weird to read about someone else talking about the place we called home for nearly five years, and seeing the pictures of how it’s already changed in just a few months. But then I took a look around our new place, which I love so much more than that crooked little cottage, and all the weirdness went away. At least now we know that all the work that went into getting that “recently renovated kitchen,” “landscaped backyard,” and “gleaming hardwood floors” was totally worth it. If nothing else, I’m kind of proud that we took care of the place so well, and that the current owner seems to be so happy with it.
Now, about those snakes…
