Advent Theory

I live in a hosue, a medium sized one, in a very peaceful area. I like that it has a nice living room, two bathrooms, but after all, I think it’s a little too big and I have to move around too much. I would generally prefer a much smaller house, with 3-4 room, mine has about seven rooms, that’s a lot of energy wasted trying to keep the teperature decent. I love my house and i think it;’s a good place to live, after all, other people barey have a bed to sleep.

The last place I went for lunch was my own kitchen. It is medium sized, with a very large windowto allow light to come in. A very relaxing place after all, but I go there only around one hour a day, when i eat or I read the paper.  I hate kitchen with TV’s or any other such thing, my personal one doen’s have a TV, i find it hard to eat adn watch TV at the same time. I think that the my kitchen could be a bit more organized, but i like it the way it is.

I am really looking forward to moving out of this town. I hardly know anyone and though I have made some really good friends I am more of a family person and I need family close by. When you have children you like to be around people who care about your children as much as you do. It’s hard being so far away from people you can really count on and trust. It’s also hard to be somewhere where there is no one around you know well enough to babysit for you when you really need to get out!

It’s been a while since I last thought about my childhood dog, Vickie. I remember putting on one of her many dog collars and leashes, taking her out for walks, letting her roam in off leash parks, and chasing after her. Vickie was a great dog. I remember picking her out at the store, my parents finally relenting to me wanting a dog. I remember seeing her, and realizing right away that that was the dog for me. I pointed at her, saying “That one! I want that dog, Mommy!” My Dad actually has that on videotape. I should get that from him. I miss Vickie. She died a few years ago, just from old age. I came home from school, and I was the one to find her. She’d already grown a little cold… It was one of the saddest moments of my life. I still have her dog collar somewhere. It’s been a while since I saw it, but I know where it is. I don’t need it to remember her, I’ll always have my memories.
