Hi Hanna & to Grandy, paws, & all furry, feathered & scaly friends.
I get the feeling that having a place of your own, your own four (or more) walls & some open area between neighbours, with a yard, or garden, is something pretty near instinctual within most of us.
I feel the longing, deep & I'd do it too, if I only could work out how.
It's really great your friend has done it - though the timing might not be the best, now interest rates are more likely to rise - hopefully slowly, by small increments, but even small increments make for sizable increases in home loan repayments.
My helper & her hubby bought a home on more land, further away from the city, & could only do that because of the sale of their first home, which they had spent a lot on having raised up & having a granny flat built in below. But they would not get a brand new home loan at this stage in their lives, not being 60+yrs old each.
One day, I hope to use their litle inground swimming pool.
Of-course, now it's just a bit cool, (not freezing) I would like a heated pool! I am nervous & self-conscious & concerned about how it would be going to a public pool. I'd like something near enogh to me to walk to myself, but it looks like there is none. I'd like to try aqua aerobics or some such.
Oh, well, that may just be an idea I have...
Yesterday turned out to be pretty nice, however, today is a little 'drizmal' looking out there. A tomato soup day, I think.
Warmly😺,
