Do I still dream? You betcha!!

Hello friends, I am currently in the Southwest caring

for my grandmother.  It was a long trip from Europe

but it was worth it to be here for her.

The other day on an outing I bumped into an old friend.

It was so neat to see someone I knew from the past.

My friend remembered my love of Ireland

(gosh, have I been talking about it that long?) 

and one of the first questions out of her mouth

was "did you ever buy a house in Ireland and are you

going to one day?" sadly my answer was no but I 

still dream of it.   From the expression on her face,

I know I must of lit up like a candle as I always do 

whenever I speak of Ireland and my Irish friends.  

I told her of my favorite town, my friends there, and the

area that I dream of for my Irish Cottage Dream. She 

also asked what I will do once I am there.... well maybe

I will sell some of my favorite products in a little shop or

I will fall back on a few talents... I am very resourceful :)

Getting the cottage is the starting point for a new adventure!

It was nice to see an old friend and for a moment I

forgot the stress that I am currently under with my

grandmother's situation.  And after I left, I went out

and bought a lottery ticket. (I don't normally do this..

I believe in hard work and kindness to others)

But I thought "what the heck!" I could sure use a

miracle now! I know If I won enough money to buy

a cottage I would just be beside myself with joy.

But I do know how unrealistic that is and I will just

continue to work hard and save.  It has been a very,

very long road....I am not giving up.

Latest favorite cottage....  Here you go!

I know it is a new one...unlike the fixer-uppers

I usually list, but it is a beauty and I could sure

see myself happily in the kitchen cleaning the

vegetables from the lovely garden on the property.

So what do you think of this one?
