Heather's Lists

Great things about owning a house:
unpacking boxes packed over 10 years ago!
going home (not my apartment/Mom's house/Grandma's house...)
10 minute walk to church
15 minute walk to the grocery store
15 minute drive to work
library one block away
having Daniel for a roommate (soon) and hopefully other siblings in the future
deciding where to hang pictures on my walls
thinking about flowers/plants to add to the yard
meeting new people in my new ward
it's old - quite charming and old-fashioned


not-so-great things about my house:
house repairs... (aaahh!!! stress!!!)
traffic noise at night (gas station and some kind of repair shop close by)
occasional garbage left on my lawn by people walking by (from the gas station)
being in debt (I hate that part)
bills
figuring out where to put it all (how can a single person fill an entire house so quickly?)
it's old... who knows what's going on behind walls, in the attic, under floors...


I miss:
watching old movies with Grandma several times a week
seeing Grandma nearly every day
birds singing outside my window in the mornings
Deer in the yard (I know they're pests, but they're fun to see!)
Brighton 8th ward friends
Primary singing time
saving money (instead of paying it)
awesome mountain views along Wasatch Dr and Danish Rd
(Pleasant Grove mountain views are nice, but not as majestic)
Getting stuck for several minutes just looking at family pictures on the walls
Having relatives in my ward
