My house has 7 bathrooms.
One of them has a bidet.
Another has a spa sized bathtub.
We could hold a conference in our living room.
Maybe a rock concert.
Still, it is not uncommon to find, chase and squash a cockroach.
See lizards darting around the floor of the bathroom.
Have water flood the downstairs.
Dust culminates in every corner. With cobwebs.
This house, made for a family, with children and grandchildren. And maybe a puppy, is too big for us. So big that sometimes when the wind blows it feels like it is ripping through the vast empty space. Where two people are building a little life. From scratch. In a far away place.
