This Bird Has to Wait...
Well, it looks like it is not going to happen. Yes, I am disappointed. I loved the house we put an offer on. We made an offer of 95% of their asking price but it was not good enough. They want 98%. The thing is the have had no interest and no movement from anyone else because they are asking too much. I guess they have a number stuck in their heads and want it. Oh, well. Birdie will have to wait for her yard. One day I will have a yard. I have been holding my breath on this dream for about 15 years and I guess I can keep holding it for a while longer. I already found the most important part and that is the person to share the dream with. (Ending a sentence with a preposition.)
My sweet fiancé is taking me to a play called 39 Steps tomorrow night for our 4th Anniversary. I love live theatre! I am lucky to have a man that loves it as much as I do because a lot of men would not be caught dead in live theatre. We have seen dozens of plays over the years. I rarely watch TV and have seen 2 movies over the last 5 years. LIVE theatre is where it is at for me! My favourite plays over the years have been The Road to Mecca,
Damien,
Guys and Dolls,
The Life Inside and Oklahoma! .
I am off to bed. I started a new book, Let the World Spin. I love reading. Fact about Birdie. I have read every night before bed for 10 years straight. Never miss a night. Ever.
Namaste
Good luck with the house. It is not over, until it is over.
ReplyDeleteI am an every night reader as well. I never watch t.v. :)
When I was younger I didn't watch TV either. I started again when I was unemployed for more than one year. I used to read books like someone eats a meal, I was always on two or three at the same time. It seems like it was in another life, though...
ReplyDeleteThere must be some other houses with yards on sale, right?
Keep looking. With your heart.

Good luck with house-hunting and have fun at your play. Are you reading Colum McCann's book "Let the Great World Spin?" -- that was one of the best books I had read in the last decade. I loved it --
ReplyDeleteI read every night too. I could probably read all day if left up to me. Enjoy the play and hope the right home finds u soon. Namaste
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, yes it is Let the Great World Spin! I just noticed. There was a Chapters "Heather's Pics" covering up the word Great! LOL
ReplyDeleteFinished the book and loved it. It is one of the books that you close and then want to start again right from the beginning!
