Happy houses

It's 10 am in the UK.

Now, the management has decided, god bless her and make no pejorative inference.....

That we are selling up.

This is supremely financially logical, also it's something we should have done about a year ago as the markets I reckon are about to go into flame out.

The logic being we can sell here Cash in our profit buy somewhere a few miles in the less desirable direction, have a shed for my fire engines and a house would be nice as well.

Most important would be the mortgage we would not have.

To be 50 and free of the burden of finance makes so much sense and would be soooo good.

Of course that just leaves the minor trivia of selling Penole out home of nearly 15 years.

Lets get the emotional bits over.

Penole is without doubt the most spectacular place to live bar none.

We have been here and in that time have shaped used and abused the house to suit our needs and to reflect our values.

That's a big thing to say but don't we all derive what we do from our basic values and beliefs about the world.

Yeah OK pretentious tosh.

and we have a guy coming to view this morning.

So those values and feelings that express the way that we are and are manifest in our house have to be suppressed

Or put another way we need to tidy up.

So I had better go before she realises I am sat at the computer and not doing something useful.

Funny though, we first saw this house in it's spectacular location and felt it's innate happiness on a day like today when it was shrouded in mist and damp and cold.
