I dreamed I had some work to do at our house in Elsmere to
get it ready for rental. So I walked to the house, which is usually a 15- or
20-minute drive. I realized I didn’t bring any clear trash bags so I could
dispose of the yard waste after weeding, so I stole some from some kind of work
site. It also started snowing so I was looking around for a shovel I could
steal. I ended up walking through places that are nowhere near Delaware on the
way to our house, cutting through people’s houses.
In retrospect, it would have been more efficient to drive
there.
This is all bubbling up in my subconscious because we have
some applicants to rent the house. One couple asked us to do some work, like
painting and cleaning. There is also the weeding. The back had become overgrown
while we were on vacation so I went over last weekend to weed that big tree
weed that’s always been in the back that I was unable to pull out entirely a
few years ago. I got most of it done but the tenant was coming over minutes
later so I had to stop and leave because I didn’t want to be there all sweaty
when the people showed up.
In any case, we are getting closer. Our Realtor has been
working hard and showing the house to a lot of tenants. We just need the right
combination of responsible and solvent. It’s almost like a game to read through
their information and how it paints a picture of a lifestyle. I hope we will
soon be paying only one mortgage and have a little breathing room.
