I'm really going to miss this place. Today my husband and I found an apartment. It's smaller, and not our type of environment. But it's the best thing to do financially for now.
Everyday I have woken up in this place, a clean white painted room, with the ugliest window drapes you can imagine. I'd shiver and rush out of the room as soon as I seen the sun come out, because I knew the wasp that reside in the wall would be out for the day.
I complained about everything here. I always claim to hate it here. I hate the kitchen, I hate the carpet, I hate the landlord.....bla bla bla.
But now that it's time to go, I don't want to leave. I brought my newborn here to this house. My babies took their first steps in this house, and the distance between my mother and I was greatly valued.
It's at the bottom of a large mountain in the middle of nowhere. It has one road.....with pot hole after pot hole. There's houses, trailers, and one small white church in view from my house. Every Wednesday night, and Sunday morning and night church is in session. It's the only time we ever have cars come down this road.
I'll miss the stupid curtains, the stupid kitchen, the big bath tub, the view of New River Gorge winding down the mountains in my back yard, the cook outs, the fishing, the pot holes..........and most of all when church is in session.
