The view from The Back Living Room

I have decided to start sitting in different places in the house to capture the views. I already mentioned in another post that we do not use every room in our home and are moving to a smaller house closer to downtown. Space can be freeing and soothing, but I do not enjoy cleaning it. I prefer writing, playing piano, running, attending a 2 hour movie, discovering new restaurants and trailer eats, and hanging out with friends and family. For that reason, I am thrilled to be moving to a smaller house that will be more efficient to clean. People say, “Hire a maid!’ I say, “We had one and I clean better.” Plus, I do not want to spend the money on a maid. That is at least $85 that can be used for eating out.

The dogs move around the house as I move around the house. This photo was taken the day after the dogs spent the day out and about while our house was being shown to 6 or 7 potential buyers. Joey and Phoebe are exhausted and I see a little stress on Phoebe’s face: so rare for her. A dog’s life is a good life if its owners are caring and understanding.
