When someone asks me where I live, I automatically say, “In the country.” I live with my husband, three cats, dog, and his mother. It’s a nice little house that has linoleum and carpet throughout. There is a little stoop on the front of the house that you can sit a couple of lawn chairs on, and the neighbors are close, but not too close for comfort. There used to be a deck on the house, but over time it has fallen in. It is a quiet neighborhood, filled with good people. My town is small and nearly everyone is close to one another.
