Six Houses

I had a lovely afternoon with Kim and her kids, visiting, eating yummy food, watching the Olympics, playing toys, and listening to Solly doze nearby. It was comfortable, as always. Rowan, Solly, and her youngest slept for a good chunk of our play date, but it made it easier for the four older ones to play on their own, I think. Once the littles started waking up, I started hauling mine out to the van. They had had a nice time as well, but didn’t made a big fuss about leaving like they have done other times. We headed out around 3:30.

I picked up the mail, and headed home. Right where our street starts, there is a sign displaying all of the lots on our street, as it is still in development. It shows which lots are sold and which are available. As its a very new development, there are only a few houses on it. I never look at the sign. Ever. But today, it caught me eye, and I actually drove back to look at it closer.

I am SO EXCITED!! One of the lots beside us sold!!! It is marked on the big display, but the sign actually physically on the lot isn’t marked as “sold” yet. But it will be soon, I’m sure. I’m sooo happy to know that we’ll have neighbours! Of course, now the town busybody comes out of me, and I want to know who bought it, and who is building, and how soon its supposed to start, etc etc etc.

Our streets sixth house. Wow. I’m so looking forward to more people moving in!
