Went to my parents house tonight because it was my Mom's birthday. My
parents live in the house that used to belong to my grandparents. My
grandfather actually built the house, and I spent almost my entire childhood
there, so it has a really strong emotional connection for me. Tonight it was
such a beautiful evening that I spent some time on the back porch in the
swing. When I was younger, I would spend hours/days/weeks in the summer with
the little portable radio beside me listening to the local AM radio station
and swinging on that swing. I miss those days, sometimes.

My grandparent's house was torn down 17 years ago. But for me, it was walking between the damp sheets hanging on the clothesline. Smelling Downey and roses and dirt and sunshine.
I'd like to have a little room you could visit every so often to go back to your nice memories for a little stress relief, you know?
I would absolutely love that same thing - that would be amazing! - Shannon
