I slept surprisingly well today, even though the housekeeper came and cleaned the end room. Fortunately, our tolerable neighbors haven’t checked out on either side yet.

They finally updated the satellite picture of our old house in Maricopa. Even though there are now 5 rentals in back, one in which half a dozen or more cars were parked, it brought tears to my eyes anyway. I miss the house and having space, just not the lives we had that went with it. Let me guess, the house with all the cars must be a herd of bass-thumping, lazy, freeloading, always-home Mexicans, right? There are no other houses on our land yet, though it looks like they’ve fenced the area around our house. And using our posts that Tom started to put up. They got to do what we never got the chance to do.
