A friend and I went to the Home and Garden Show today, along with what appeared to be about half of Fort Wayne. It was fun to wander through all the aisles, browsing the booths for an amazing variety of things and services for sale. I did not come away empty handed. I bought two bags of flavored kettle corn and a chunk of summer sausage. I was also given two free at-home Covid tests. I was tempted by a beautiful double porch swing suspended from an A frame that would be great on my balcony, until I saw the price tag. But the best thing I came away with was a wonderful feeling of freedom. I don't need a new roof or a new furnace or replacement windows or remodeled kitchens or baths. Of course I did do all that stuff before I sold my house but I don't need to concern myself with it any more. I was tempted to sign up for a free house full of replacement windows but I think they might have balked at 14 stories of windows.
