Past Post Parade – August 2008

Elaine at The Miss Elaine-ous Life is holding a pretty cool parade this week. All I had to do was go back to an old August post and repost it.

When I first started cycling through posts, I had completely forgotten what happened two years ago this past week.

It’s official!

As of 10:00am, Wednesday, August 27th, we no longer own our house…

Goodbye house it’s time to leave you
And I’m sure feeling low
I know you’re only pine and stone
But the time has come so goodbye home

Goodbye house I’m gonna miss you
Memories overflow
It’s like you just took on a life of your own
Never thought I’d say oh goodbye home

Your walls have sheltered us over the years
As we’ve lived and died and laughed and shed tears
Every corner a treasure of stories to tell
Of the lives that unfolded inside number 12

Goodbye house though it’s hard to
I’m letting go oh goodbye home

Your walls have sheltered us over the years
As we’ve lived and died and laughed and shed tears
Every corner a treasure of stories to tell
Of the lives that unfolded inside number 12

Goodbye house goodbye home
You won’t be lonely long
Soon a brand new family will call you their own
But our time is done so goodbye home

Soon a brand new family will call you their own
Don’t worry bout me oh goodbye home

Lyrics from “Goodbye, House” by Melinda Schneider
