Burning Bushes in Virginia

Today we all got up and prepared to go see our old friend Tootsie White.  We have really missed her and her laughter!!  We stopped at a couple of places and finally found our old street Sugar Mill!!  Could not park at her house because they are redoing the whole outside.  Now it is a real pretty light tan and also having the roof done too,  Going to be really nice when they are finished.  Took a bit to get into her house but we wrangled our way around and made it there. 

She had coffee and doughnuts for us.  We sat at the famous kitchen table where I have sat many many times.  Had a great time just like nothing had happened.  We have just always been here.  But of course we haven't.  We could see our old home but it is not our home anymore. We know that it can never be again.  With Mike retired there is no way we could ever afford to have a home.  We have to remember that we have a basement apt and this motor home and that is going to be it.  I cannot tell you how much I miss having a home.  For those of you that live in a home do not know what it is to miss having windows and a front door,  I miss just being able to go to the front door and shake rugs. .  When you are so used to these simple" taken for granted" things then loose them then e you will understand how I feel.  I have also had a loss.  It seems like without a home I feel like I have lost independence.  Crazy I know but that is the way I feel.  Took me a while to get over this and even now I am not sure how I feel.

We went to Pooler today looking for some things at Camping World.  Found what we needed and more.  smile!!

Home and a nap.  Not the most productive of days.
