The new lady in the apartment next door moved in, then
disappeared. Six months later she returned. Seems she owns a summer home in
Maine where the community requires residents to be there for six months a year.
Her brood is large, and each family loves to come there for a couple of weeks
every summer. But there would be gaps if no one were in residence continuously.
Actually, she’s due back from her second and what she said
would be her last summer away for six months, because she’s too tired to keep
it up. So when she sold her house in our area, she established her new home in
our senior residential community so it would be ready and waiting for her at
all times. This is her permanent home.
