A House Is a Funny Thing


After three days of raking leaves and bagging leaves and then raking more leaves, I am almost certain that, had we looked at our house during the fall season, we would never have actually purchased it.

It looks innocent enough, doesn't it? And on the sell sheet, it looked really quite impressive. A third of an acre? Really? And right in town? That's fan-tab-u-lous!

And really, the thought of spending summer days on the deck with the shade of the trees was really quite appealing.

Until I had to rake a third of an acre. After that, it really lost its charm.
