A Million Dreams
Good morning, my Lovelies! Happy Saturday!
Y'all good? I certainly hope so. I know it has been a while since I've blogged and I apologize. Will you ever forgive me for leaving you temporarily?
I'll be honest. I hadn't planned on blogging this morning, but I came outside to sit on my front porch in peace and quiet to write and research for my current work in progress and after only a half hour, found myself annoyed beyond comprehension.
Let me set the scene. I have a 50-acre farm. However, my house sits very close to the road I live on. While I have no neighbors on either side of me (thank GOD!) I do have neighbors who live across the road. The ones who live across and to the left of me are older and while they are in their yard fairly often, are quiet and mind their own business.
The neighbors across and to the right of me are an entirely different story. (And then my in-laws live next door to them! Ugh!) These neighbors somehow have three generations living in a garage. Seriously. I'm not kidding. They are loud and obnoxious.
I just wanted to enjoy the outdoors this morning and do a little work in peace. I should not be forced to listen to the woman across the road screaming and just generally talking loud enough that I can hear every fucking word she says.
In my frustration I found my mind wandering. Where did it go? To money. What would I do if money were suddenly no object? Well, let me tell you my dream situation.
If I suddenly came into money, if it were truly nothing I ever had to worry over again, here is what I would do.
I would sell my farm. I would buy another with many more acres (somewhere a little further south) and I would build my dream home right in the middle so that I had no neighbors at all.
A two-story home built to my specifications. An inground pool, a hot tub, and an attached three-car garage. My office would be a separate building and in part of that building, I would have a state-of-the-art gym.
I would have dogs, cats, and miniature goats. There would be a stable and horses and so many more animals to make my heart smile.
I'd be able to walk outside and not have anyone being nosy about what I was doing and why I was doing it. I wouldn't have neighbors watching every move I make. (Naked 24/7... just kidding!)
I'd have some freaking peace.
But, as I haven't suddenly come into major amounts of money and I don't have any sugar daddies beating down my door, I guess I just have to be annoyed with my neighbors.
(Y'all don't happen to know of any sugar daddies, do ya? 😜)
Anyway, I needed to clear my head before I could go any further in my work. So, tell me, what would you do if money was no object?
Until next time and as always,
Much love and daydreaming from me to you,
Shelly (a/k/a Dawn Love)
