This is just about our lives - four cats, two kids, a musician and a preacher.

Elizabeth's musings
 
Tuesday, May 09, 2006  
We finally sold our house today. It was on the market for a year! We're glad to be rid of the financial burden, but we still miss our house. Nathan kept suggesting that we just keep our house and stay in Florence. He did get to play with his buddy, Aaron, today. Which meant that I got to visit with my friend (and Aaron's Mom) Joan.

Today actually felt like a strange little blip in time. Standing in Joan's driveway, it felt like I had been there yesterday and the day before. Except that yesterday, Lila was 10 months old and happy to ride in the sling. Today she was chasing the boys and doing her best to keep up.
I wish that we could package Florence up and trade it for Shepherdsville! Everything is new and shiny there. But it doesn't have the culture or diversity that I love in Louisville. We could just transport Florence to the Louisville area, and we would have the best of both worlds.

I miss the Central Park playground and walking trail, the Scheben Branch of Boone Couny Library, the Barnes and Nobles on Mall Road that was just 5 minutes away, LaRosa's pizza, and teaching at the Slater Music Academy. But I mostly miss our old neighborhood. I never expected to like living in such a cookie-cutter subdivision. There were always kids around for Nathan to play with, people coming and going. I miss feeling like part of a neighborhood.
