It has been over 2 years that I started working on this house to kind of prop it up a little … always in the back of my head thinking… when I am gone sister will move in here and I want it to be nice.
2years is quiet awhile to be working towards a idea for the future. Especially a future you are not sure of an exact date.
About a 2 month s ago I finished the last project I had dreamed of doing to this old house. I finished the porch. With every improvement I was thinking …Fleta will like this…
About 3 weeks ago Emily approached me about
in and using the big back room. I was thrilled! Finally someone was going to enjoy this old house! It was not Sister as I had planned but actually someone better. Someone who, if she gets used to this old house and likes it, might stay for years. Even tho Fleta is living to be 100 years old…. Lol… ( this is what her and Betty both say) Emily will long surpass that time . Even if Emily moves off for awhile if she has great memories of this place she will one day come back.
Back to live in this old house where I was so loved as a child and where I have so many memories. Memories of feeling so secure and so close to all of my siblings. Memories of mostly good times because that is what I want to remember. Even with remembering the sad times it will always be the best years of my life. Hopefully I can pass this on to Emily.
