close relationship

we had wonderful painting weather, the house is completely painted, new edges and window frames - now all white and it makes the house so much prettier. we just need now the right buyer, someone just like us... somebody asked if it would suitable for 2 kids. i guess that is a question of time. the family who lived here before the old lady who sold the house to us had 13 children. i guess it was ok for them, they all turned out decent people. so who knows what is suitable for people. an interesting article in the nytimes talked about a couple who vowed never be more than 15 feet apart- that is mmh - i have to check...4.57 meter... that is a close relationship.. i love to be close to my partner, but right now he is gone putting the "for sale signs" up. 3.4 miles away. i miss him.

so if anyone wanna come and have ice-tea; open-house 1-4 sat and sun.

see you then.

house for sale!

die zeit rast, where does the time go. we are sooooo busy with finishing this house in iowa. tomorrow we will get the sign out: "for sale by owner".

we were just painting painting... in the morning checking if the temperature is over 10 C and if the rain does not come for at least 4 more hours. rain does wash paint off. in the morning after a night rain the brown covered green gutters appeared again.
