Restless Yanks Should Stay Off Estate Websites


Do you suppose the owners of this cozy little cottage are flakes?

Do you suppose they woke up one morning and said, "Hey, let's switch houses every time we replace toothbrushes!"?
Maybe they said, "You know, I'm betting there's a house only 6 minutes from where we are with a bigger kitchen (that doesn't smell like grease) and a garden suitably sized for three football-freak boys. It may even have a treehouse and a garden filled with so many lovely fruit trees and flowers that our princess could hide for hours while making fairy houses".

Yeah, I'm betting there are flakey renters like that. Somewhere. Maybe even in Norfolk England.

    We have a lot in common!! Lots of shared favorite movies and likes-- AND my fiance is in the AFROTC! He's commissioning in December, so next summer I'll be An AF Officer's wife!

    Do you like living in England? Was it hard moving so far away? how long have you been married?

  4. I am always amazed at the talent in this blog world. You are very creative! I look at a common object and my brain says bird house. Your creative brain sees a story with characters! Love this post!

  9. Oh, I think maybe the neighbors just ruffled their feathers a little bit!
    Loved your comment on my unmade bed post! I may just incorporate that little idea--one less chore to keep repeating every day.

  26. We have several empty birds nests on our house. I was planning on getting the demolition people in so that they can build something bigger and better next year.

  28. I spend every waking hour sprucing up the homes of those flightly blue birds and everytime I turn around the Carolina Wrens are squawking about how the CowBirds are trying to lay eggs in their little homes and that I must get the sheriff after the trespassers...it's pure hell for this landlord, I'll tell you...thank God they don't have kitchens that smell like grease or I'd have to evict them!
