Who We Are (revisited)
Ray,
I at first thought "residence #18" what's that, is that like the "White House" or "US Naval Observatory" (the Vice President's mansion). I thought you were making a reference to a place where you were at the current moment when sending the email, and that it was some federal government residence that I ought to recognize by reference. Then (after a while, thought process not working fast here) it occurred to me that you probably meant that this is the 18th home that you have called your permanent residence. Is that it? If so, it's only your 18th, and you are 52. Hey, that's a stable life you've been living! I had lots of trouble putting together the list of all the addresses I have lived in for the past 10 years for the US citizenship application, I think I came up with 8, and if I had to go over my entire life that would be 12 so far, and I am only 30 years old. And I am not an army brat, and not a federal brat, or anything like that ... come to think of it I don't consider myself a brat at all. Though I guess most brats do not consider themselves one. ;-) I am hoping to have more residences in the future, because I want more space for my orchids, and ideally a greenhouse someday, and it's hard to have that in an apartment. But I do hope not to have to change residences at quite such a rate any more. I think it might be traumatic for the orchids to need to get acclimated to a new space so often. (Though this is true, I am mainly kidding, as I am not quite such an orchid nut to arrange my life for the benefit of the orchids alone. I have told my husband though that I do hope to someday grow roots like a turnip, meaning settle down in one place.) Joanna "Ray" wrote in message ... Federal Government brat... My current location is actually residence # 18 |
