I was looking forward to not having neighbors close on each side again when we moved here. I thought. But, at times I have this "oh, there's no one to wave at as we pull in and out of the driveway each day" or "hmm...no one to chit chat with at the mailboxes" feeling. It's odd, because I thought I wanted to be completely separated. More so I think I feel I'm keeping Kian and Karter segregated. So very odd how your thinking changes and life changes you. Kian's been asking for more friends so we are going to get on that! So, it's a two-fold/bittersweet type of thing. No more keeping up the lawn with next door because it looks out of wack after he mows, no more freaking out because we're the only ones NOT spraying the dandelions each spring, but no "can I borrow a cup of sugar" or "can you let the dog out while we're at a wedding tonight" either...
On the bight side... I won't have to buy bags of candy and answer the door over 50 times on Halloween, and that my friends, just might make it worth it!
