After years of being in Illinois, we gradually moved to Wisconsin. First we rented part-time then we moved about 1 1/2 years ago. I could not be more thrilled. Our new little town brings back so many fond memories of when I was growing up in Illinois. I cannot believe how wonderful my neighbors are, how active the schools are and the ease of access.
They say you can never go home again but yet my husband and I have found new hamlet that feels so much like old home week that I must shout to everyone how very happy I am here.
First it was the home we fell in love with - every room hugs you as you go through. Now that we have lived here neighbors stop by (yesterday a neighbor stopped by and said hello while I was still in my obviously pink, fluffy robe!), neighbors greet us with warms smiles and one neighbor even greeted me with a hug.
After years of feeling isolated and alone in my neighborhoods, I am finally home - what a true joy and all at age 50! Is the world becoming a better place or am I just especially blessed at this time in my life?
Oh, and now if only Google traffic were so longing - oh, well, a gal cannot have everything.
What a wonderful feeling, GmaGoldie! Congratulations! I hope you're happy and fulfilled there in every moment of your life.
Got room for two more in that quaint town?! Your last neighborhood sound just like where I live at the moment. Wonderful, love to hear such joy and happiness!

How are you going to show your love to a neighbor this holiday season? I'm giving gifts or maybe I'll bake something if I'm short on money.

Do you and your neighbors help each other?My neighbor, with whom we don't speak much, is still kind enough to cut the grass in our front lawn. We do the same for him on occasion. How do you help your neighbors?

We live in a small apt building and our adjoining neighbor has been driving us up the wall for over two years now. She is to say the least downright evil and crazy. It all started when we submitted complaints of the overwhelming smell of dog piss coming from her balcony. Ever since then she has...

I am in the process of clearing a very large thinker behind my home. It separates my yard from the neighbors yard on the property behind ours. Now that there are some clear spots, my son wants to play with the children who live in that home. They are classmates at school, but when...
