By the Bug…
I have been musing on where I might live when I am old enough to move out of my parents’ house. There’s a road near us with the same name as me, so I’ve always assumed I’d live there eventually, but there’s a problem: it doesn’t have the right kind of home. I gave my mother the benefit of my thought process this week.
Buying a home
Me: It must be really boring living in a flat.
Mum: Well, that depends. A penthouse appartment would be kind of special. Anyway, most people live in a flat for their first home – it’s cheaper.
Me: I’m going to live in a really posh house when I move out. A mansion, with a wooden door. I might buy number 236.
Mum: Oh, well you’re going to have to work really hard at school so you can get a really good job and earn lots of money
Me: Actually I might just save up for a new wooden door…

If that is the wooden front door, she is after… 😀 GG has a good sense of aesthetics, is all I can say x
Well – it’s good to know what’s important in life! lol… Kind of made me realise how much I need a new front door… and a house that doesn’t leak… and has proper windows… doh!
Sadly it’s too late for me. Unless the book/film deal comes along soon 😉
Well that is a stunning front door! I’d like one like that! 😀
I know, and the house to go with it!
The door she might just be able to afford, the house that goes behind it might just take a little longer
GG is going to need that degree in Marine Biology she keeps talking about. The Bug wants to be a vet, so not totally beyond the realms of possibility!
My boys have decided they are going to live together next door to us so we can look after them! Wise before their time!
Very sensible. And how like a boy 😉
Ah just read this! Must be a boy thing!
My son would love that door – he is always banging on about painting our door red! Much to the amusement of my husband who wanted it red but lost out to me who wanted it sage, sage is best 🙂
Mother knows best. Until the kids are 9 😉
Oh wouldn’t it be great if it were that easy… fancy a nice big house with a big wooden door? Just buy the door and *ping* the house appears!
Fantastic! My boy says he will either live with me or live next door to me so there is another option 😉
Starting small – smart boy! And that’s a very nice door 🙂
Genius!! I’m going to invest in a really grand door to fool people into believing the rest of the house is a mansion – may stick some big fancy gates at the end of the drive too 😉 xx
