I am feeling somewhat sad this evening. I moved into the little yellow house about three years ago. It has been a very happy time for me. I have enjoyed working on the little house and making the changes that have turned it into a cozy little home. When I moved here I knew this would be my journey’s end. I am home. Then why am I sad?
Well, I have been feeling that my time here is limited somehow. My health has not deteriorated as I had feared; I am still mobile although I have been ill for three friggin’ weeks…lol! I just have been experiencing a rather dismal forboding. I have tried to be very sensible when the feelings settle on me; my mother died when she was 58 and I am now 55. Maybe this sense of fleeting time is rooted in that sad reality? I just keep moving forward while enjoying each day as it comes. I love my little home here in small town America. This is truly my journey’s end; I have no need to move any more.
The little yellow house is now the little grey house…it has grown a little as well. Here are some more current photos. It is winter here now though so things look a little different. Hope that you like it!
Here in the country we use the back door as a main entry. We sit on the deck and visit. When the sun has gone behind the trees the back yard is nicely shaded. It is a very peaceful place even with the trucks that go past the front of the house on the way to Morton Salt. I am grateful for my life today. M
