Buckeye hope your Dr. Can fix you up for Christmas, surgery around the holidays is tough prayers that all is well and the problems that just don't feel right is just your body healing.
Also know what you mean about "old family property" when my grandfather and his family first came to America they settled in an area where they all had property, now there are only 4 homes remaining, the original homestead where my grandmother raised 14 children after my grandfather passed at a young age, my parents home, my uncles home and mine. As the older family members passed the family wanted nothing to do with it. This was a year where both my uncle and mom passed leaving 2 homes vacant, cousin wants to sell all her dads property and my brothers want to sell my parents my wife has been spending most of the last year at the lake home we have and wants to live there permanently, I only see her on weekends now. I guess that as we age we look at things differently to me the lake house is just that a house, the other house is a home, the woods and mountains I grew up in learned to tractor, garden, ride a horse and watch my children grow. But the say change is good I guess I'll see.
