What a hoot!! Let’s see if you can tell which house is mine ?
Ok everyone now knows I’ve put the house up for sale… the once quiet residential area I fell in love with, has become a very different place, with a totally unfamiliar vibe. The real-estate agents listed it yesterday, there is now a sign in my front yard. Thanks Bonnie for looking up the listing for me.
I have had many encouraging messages, for that I thank you, it has been a mouthful for sure. There are a lot of memories associated with the place. When we bought, the property was bare of vegetation. There is a cherry tree that gives an abundance of cherries every spring, and in early spring there is a Saskatoon Berry tree with amazing berries. The birds, love the trees and visiting the property. I will miss them. There is even a rabbit that lives somewhere in the neighbourhood, spends a lot of time in my front yard. (wonder why)
In the back I have a maturing magnolia, maple, evergreen, and an assortment of other small trees and vegetation… In my new place (apartment) I have an outdoor patio, with a hedge .. that will be my greenery. All things must evolve and we must embrace new beginnings.
It all begins with your determination
Things begin to happen the moment you decide. “Let’s do it” It all has to do with your attitude.

bonjour Lise…. merci
Beautiful 🌼🌹
I’ve been thinking of you for days, it must be hard leaving a place with so much history, lots of memories and a mature garden that you have put so much into. I have similar and I’m finding it challenging after 35 years to keep it maintained. I suppose we all come to a similar turn in the road. Best wishes for your next chapter!
yes it is a challenge, I just keep telling myself … it is time! for everything there is a season.. and you see the monsters going up all around me.. yuck.
It reminds me of a favorite children’s book ‘The Little House’ Do you know it? Swallowed up by development! https://youtu.be/t35VhvYfz3E?si=UN5cf2KD44ic1jEm
Best of luck selling your house. It’s a shame that the neighbourhood has changed, and not for the better.
totally agree .. some don’t have any green space at all, if there is it is postage stamp size.. where I’m’ going I will be walking distance to the river and green spaces. waves hello….
Sounds lovely
