summer house
May 21st, 2007 | by the insider |The best (and possibly worst) part about where we live is that I’m beginning to feel as if I’m constantly on vacation.
Don’t get me wrong. We get up early.. the dog has a small bladder.. and we work all day during the week, but it just doesn’t seem as if this is a real place to live. I just walked the dog on the beach (for the second time today). She chased seagulls, I had a chat with a swan (don’t ask). Our neighbors are either active retirees or couples with young children.. they’re sweet, they say hi every day, we chat about boats and the weather and ticks (Reggie had one) and lice (her daughter, and son, and other daughter.. who all three are now sporting uneven pageboys, lol) while we get the mail. It’s nice here.
We don’t even lock the door.
As I sit here I see boaters coming back to dock, Reggie hears seagulls she’d love to pin down and I can smell the ocean.
Part of me is waiting for the other shoe to drop… lol.

Wen, well we do when we go to bed or have to leave for an extended period of time, just not when we’re walking the dog or most of the day.
Me.. lol. Peace is nice. They’re are noises.. ocean, sea gulls, a brook and little kids, lol. It’s nice noise.
Jen.. oh man, I am JEALOUS. :)
