ROOM FOR RENT

Too small, for two of us. Wanting to run away, I was reluctant to stay here. Our pay checks did not reach far in those days, I had a place to rest my head. Needed more rent money, please rain dollars. Too small.

Yep, the early, lean days. You were blessed to have someone loving to share them with. Have a wonderful weekend. Brought back memories.

I can remember our first home (if you could call it that). It was all one room plus a bathroom. LOL..I can feel the emotion in this one. Thanks for sharing it with us. Sara K
