The New House

It’s wanting from a few years of neglect, relentless weeds crowding out the flowers. But like they say, her bones are pretty good, with some hard work and time we’ll make it ours. Replace a few boards to repair the fence, maybe put a bird feeder in this tree. Pull out these shrubs on this side of the house, that will create a better view, you’ll see. The master bath looks newly remodeled, I wonder why they tiled the bedroom floor. We will need to replace these two windows, and why the hell is this such a small door. But I guess we have no right to complain, the price is right and the location great. In no time we will be lounging poolside, saying life in the Ozarks is first-rate.
