Money can't buy that. My father always will remark,"A house takes a heap a livin to make it a home" -<BR/>I love that last home, of course all the others are chic, and grand, but I love a simple cottage and stairs to have a nice view and keep my legs in shape!pve designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03527745630303158002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28651976363618994.post-64627456073487413062008-04-25T20:46:00.000-04:002008-04-25T20:46:00.000-04:00Thanks for the shout out!

A house very much is the security in our life and the appearance of the house will show something of our past as well as our desire for the future. The house of our parents can often be the vision of security and affect the choices for the future.stuarts brasilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10430259839872413790noreply@blogger.com
