Wide Open Spaces

I think I might be tired of living in a little tiny apartment. I had this epiphany as I was walking crab-like around the outside of my bed, because there's so little space I can't walk normally.

Granted, there are benefits to a little house. There's only one bathroom to clean. I can hear what the kids are up to no matter what room I'm in. I'm sure there's a third benefit, I just can't think of it right now.

We'll only be here for, what, five more months tops, so I can handle it. And there are so many more things that I'll miss, like all of our friends that are staying in the area. But a bigger apartment is looking real good right now.
