I was getting close to having a home like this until money ran out.

My library was going to be a spare room.

The attic for arty stuff.

Do you have "ranch" homes in the UK?

"Ranch" homes only have one story.

We have one storey houses here - usually called bungalows.

I will probably get one eventually.

Yep....we have "bungalows," too.

In the old days, they were primarily "vacation homes."

I would love to have a log cabin style home.

Near water and woodland.

I would like that sort of home, too.

I wish wood wasn't such a delicacy for termites, though.

I had ideas about alternative homes on a plot of land.

Not sure that ship has sailed yet - it would be nice.

Dragons, you could fly over for a holiday!

I wonder what the "porridge" of the Three Bears was actually made of.

In the US, "porridge" is only used in reference to the Three Bears. We usually call it "oatmeal," or "Farina," or "hot cereal," or whatever.

I sometimes eat oats but not for a while.

I think I will start eating this for breakfast again.

The Bible Belt thinks depression is a myth and that all you need to do is work yourself to death or let God take it out of you. :roll:


depression is the biggest cause of disability. ridiculous to call it a myth. can you appeal? and appeal? and appeal?


My mind pretty much thinks I am doomed and should just put myself out of my misery. Having Aspergers and being born into the Bible Belt has been a living nightmare for me.

Morning all.

Lovely sunshine here, albeit cold.

Am I going to have a lazy sunday?
