New House Has No Internet....or Furniture

So we've finally bought and moved into the new house. I love the way the sunlight comes through the kitchen window and lights everything up. However, I don't like how we only have 2 pieces of furniture and how the heating goes on and off. Also how there is no internet. But there are no regrets - only compromises!

Sitting now in the North East Seattle Public Library, sucking up their free internet like a parasite.



It was odd spending Christmas without Dad and Geoffrey, the Christmas tree or Christmas anything. It's just me and Mom and the empty house. It wasn't depressing, just odd, like was just any other day. I suppose you could argue the HOUSE was the Christmas gift, and I should embrace it in the spirit of Christmas. And you'd be right - but a house isn't a home when half of your family isn't there, even if it was quite a costly house. Without your family, Christmas is mainly just a "pretty" event. But it's still a good idea.

Dad and Geoffrey did set up the Christmas tree at home - which I saw when I called them with Skype.

Jerks.

Merry Christmas everyone!
