When we bought this house, I thought about family gatherings, laughter, memories to be made. We thought about how we could take care of our mother's if they needed us. We have already talked about how we could convert the garage into living space and build a detached garage for all the tools, muscle car.
This house is quite large for just the two of us. Even with two cats and two dogs there is still room to spare. There are times I wish I had insisted on a smaller home, something easier on me to keep clean.
I use to keep all the wood sparkling, the floors swept up nice and neat. All in the hopes that the children would want to come and visit, work out our differences, and start those memories.
I am a fool.
I have made too many mistakes and my hope is fading away.
