I have three times the space in a small house in Michigan now than my partner and I shared in our little Chelsea apartment. But you know, there’s always something better. I have complaints and worries now that never would have occurred to me then. I want to live closer to town. I wish my well water didn’t have so much iron in it. (Meh, at least it doesn’t stink of sulfur.) And you know all that space? It has to be dusted and vacuumed regularly. I haven’t yet managed to teach the dog or the cat how to do that. (Ingrates!)

Somehow I’m sure if I moved to a nice one bedroom in the Village, my list of complaints would probably be about as long as they are right now. 😂
