home
home sweet home
home is where the heart is
home on the range
home run
I’ve been thinking about home a lot lately… what makes a home, how home feels, how nothing else matters in the world than being at home, surrounded by the people and the things you treasure most.
Memories are made at home.
Family and friends gather at home.
Home grounds us, it’s our constant, our safe haven, our soft place to land.
Home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling and embodies comfort at it’s finest, whether it’s a lavish estate or a shoebox apartment, home is everything.
We have been in our new home a month and I’m making the best of it while marking off the days until we move again. I’ve realized that it doesn’t matter where we live, as long as we are together.
Quiet cul-de-sac, updated foothills home has expansive, panoramic views of the Tucson Country Club golf course, soaring ceilings, fireplace in the family room. French doors off breakfast room lead to privately landscaped patio/terrace. Stainless steel appliances convey. Tons of storage in extended garage.
My parents house went live on MLS (Multiple Listing Service) less than an hour ago.
There is a For Sale sign in the front yard and I am equal parts thrilled and crestfallen.
Their house that hasn’t been a home for 5-1/2 years but it is finally ready to be occupied by a new family.
It has been a hell of a journey to get to this point, but it’s time for new memories and the chance to be a home again.

It’s another step towards healing, my friend.
Much love to you.

We moved so much when I was growing up that the only place that really felt like home was my grandmother’s. I’m still sad that I can’t go back so I understand this completely.

No wonder you have been in a little bit of a funk – this is HUGE. Just wait until you hear how your children describe home when they’re your age 🙂

I had to read all the other posts just to catch up. The only thing I knew about was your beloved parents. I can’t BELIEVE about the flood!
I wish I were as organized as you. I want to be just like you! Where are my OCD genes??? 🙂

Carnations to you for taking a really (and I mean really really) bad situation and redeeming it. Sometimes our own resilience can astonish us. Well done.

I’m glad you’re able to move on to this next phase, though I can just imagine how hard it is.
Kimberly says
I’m glad you are moving forward, but my heart breaks for you as I know it is so hard.

I’m not as sad as I thought I would be about the house going on the market… I guess time has really helped me. Well, that and seeing the house one final time last month. It just isn’t the same place at all. It no longer has those feelings for me anymore. Guess it lost those awhile ago…maybe the flood did it for me. I’m not sure. I know we will feel good once it’s finally sold.
Jessica says
I remember my days of moving a lot. It was hard to feel like any place was home. I hope you find that feeling again. It’s a good one to have.

My coder is trying to convince me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a variety of
websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to
another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.
net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it?
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
