I can’t see another lived in house from my home and I like it that way. There are two houses in the distance that are seasonal cabins but one I can barely see and the other only has someone there a dozen times a year.
I don’t have my birth family anywhere near me and I’m no longer in contact with them. I have been adopted by the community and am currently at a neighbors daughter’s home for the holidays. A lot of people here call me brother or cousin because I am the main transportation driver for a 99 year old neighbor and I call her mom. We go somewhere almost everyday. Hence her real children call me brother.
There are other shut-ins as well and I take them shopping and to doctor appointments. This is a small close knit neighborhood and it’s common for me to have several visitors everyday. My place got to be the center of activities and outings. My van is a seven passenger that is often full going out to dinner or shopping.
I really found a good place to grow old.

If we died at the same time I'm quite sure either UPS or FEDEX would check on us for lack of activity.fortyshooter wrote: ↑Sun Nov 24, 2024 2:09 pmDon't worry about it as it is way overrated ! Wife and I would never be found if we happened to die together at home.
Maybe even Amazon.
