The search for a new home began with the news that the owner of our home was selling up, and not offering a lease extension. Thus, after fourteen months, it was time to move-not our choice, but such are the perils inherent in renting. Truth be told we had been 'moving' in our minds for a little while before our lease was terminated. What had served our family well, was no longer quite what we needed. I started looking around, first online, then visiting houses for the mandatory physical inspection. This is the fun part. It's also very educational.

A Bitter Pill
'You have to put it in your mouth. Chew it up and swallow it.' I understand the words, but 'Huh?' is the only response I can find, my face screwing into a frown. Although, I haven’t known Trev for long, it feels like it; it’s comfortable. He's a straight shooter who likes to joke around but telegraphs his plays. I'm convinced he's serious which makes it all the more baffling. How am I to benefit from this bizarre, counterintuitive action?
