Looking at the ads for luxury homes they deliver for free on Saturdays. What would it feel like to have the possibility to buy one of those estates or fancy apartments? Rather an apartment with a good location compared to a large estate in the countryside.
I've never lived central in the city. It would be nice. Must do that sometime, while I still enjoy to eat at a restaurant or go shopping. Before I become a crippled old lady with a stick who keeps my handbag in a firm grip because I'm afraid of being robbed.
I get cheered up when I go to the city, just by all the people. Hopefully I get used to the noise, and all the cars, where I live today it's very quiet.
Anyway, I don't have the possibility to move for the moment.
I remember a guy I was talking to some months ago. He liked the fact that I said I wasn't interested to know how wealthy people are when I get to know them. Maybe I should have told him that I do care about how generous people are. What's the benefit of being together with someone who is rich but cheap? I do remember he didn't even buy me a glass of water when we met.
The best thing is to own things oneself.
I used to have a large house and access to a great summer place. What was great with the summer place wasn't just the location and the look. You could feel the history, and earlier generations in the walls and in the garden. I also liked the lack of expectations, nobody told me what to do so I could run my own projects. I remember things like making a sandbox for the kids, planting roses, picking apples, cutting bushes, making new curtains and I had some hopeless project to make a sand beach for the kids.
I should have bought my own little place when I had the chance once, then I would still have somewhere to go in the summer.
Never mind, the everyday living is more important. Maybe I should start by fixing some things in this apartment? Or maybe it's better I make sure I get an income.
