The Art of Homemaking: On Choosing a Home
So over the past few weeks my husband and I have been agonizing over homes. And I mean agonizing. I think I have talked to every single builder in a 30 mile radius...and walked through every existing home for sale in the same area.

Which I did. Her response was nothing more than eye contact, a blank stare, and her going out of her way to back up her shopping cart and drive it around me. What the heck? I had gone out of my way to talk with her and she totally snubbed me! And from that day on I put her on the ick ... View the Post
