Two Years

It's been two years in the house and I like to think I avoided the second year blues. Here are a few upsides and downsides

Upside

- The greatest wife and kids a guy could ask for... (still topping my list after almost 11 years)
- Alexandra's Crusade to neuter every feral cat on the block!
- A great house in good condition (we managed to insulate the 3rd floor)
- Great Tenants Come and Go... Eduoard, Emily, Oliver and William are moving to NJ and Katy and Kaleb are moving in...
- Creative Lease Options... Our rider for Tory continues to work for all involved.
- Lots of space and we have not filled it up anymore in the last year.
- A brand spankin' new kitchen that still looks great.
- Mice decided not to Winter Vacation at the house..
- Mosquitos aren't a factor this year
- No air conditioning in our bedroom, but who cares this summer with no heat waves.

Downside
- Cat Poop... That cat is going on vacation
- Ryan throwing toys down the toilet... "Gone"


So at the end of the day only one cat and Ryan's habit of flushing toys down the toilet have encroached on my happiness. Living on Rugby Road!
