I am calling it the Little House on Kaulu. I don't have a picture yet except the one on the real estate ad. They won't let me save their pictures to my computer...
congrat s:) where do you live now?

You're not at all "nuts"! What a wonderful getaway and a nice place to retire to. I guess I've retired to where I'm going to be now!! Until my sons put me away...they joke that they're going to roll me up to the door of the nursing home and just dump me out!!

My niece (38 with 4 kids of her own) tells her mom to remember who's going to be the one to find her a good nursing home when they disagree on something.

Well, I just totally went off the rails with this post!! Note to self: never post after taking nighttime meds!! :)
