This is me updating. For some reason you people have some weird interest in my life and demand for an update.

I don't know really where to start without complaining or sounding emo about things. I guess I could go ahead and tell everyone we are in the process of moving. Seriously this time. We didn't bother opening the pool, despite how much I wanted to. I tried to get it done, but it's hard to do alone...and, well...the point is, I didn't get it cleaned. And I guess it's alright, cause I would have just cleaned it for someone else to get in later...for someone else to enjoy. Although the ladder to the pool is old, and out of place due to the fact last year we kept swimming underneath it, and knocked it loose, and I suppose the whirl pools didn't help keep it in place either. The liner is old and has numerous holes in it because my toe rings always got caught on the side, and when we had the lawn chairs inside it...that wasn't really a good idea either. The new people will love it. A deck with just enough room for 4 people to lay out longways on. With nice sturdy sidings perfect for imagining it as a diving board and jumping in..which we did depsite that fact mom hated it. Tiki torches to light up the 2 a.m. swimfests...even though it was -20 degrees. Or, if your a pyro, torches to grab and carry around in the pool blowing the flames into each others face, or 'magically' swiping your hand through the flame really fast without feeling the least bit of heat..whatever you prefer. And a tree perfectly positioned to shade one side of the pool. Just enough to cool you down and run to the side when you were getting a little too hot...Or, to run to to hide from the sudden thunder storm that hits, even though you are already wet...it's the thrill of it all, I suppose..
I'll miss it. All of it. And that's just the backyard...
The thing about my house is...everyone has a memory there...Anyone who has come and gone knows, something has happened there that they will always remember. Whether it be the fact it was always messy, or, it always had over 4 cats living in it, or maybe just that...the door was always unlocked and anyone was welcome. Some had their first kiss there. Some went that extra mile and lost their virginites there, Some remember falling down the stairs there, some have lost things inside there, knowing they'll never see it again...Some have cried and some have laughed till they've cried...everyone has a story. So, if you have a memory, something you remember about the Osborne household you wish to share, I'd appreciate it. Really. I need to know I'm not the only sentimental loser out there that will miss something as lame as a house...
If not, if you don't wish to share anything, you don't have to, but I bet there's something...That house changes people. I know it...

Uh... at that house there was a small, "Let's get Shauna drunk for the first time" party that was a total bust due to lack of resources and lack of my own will. It was a good try, though.
And sometimes when your cats look deep into my eyes I swear they can see my soul.

I remember cleaning Luke's bedroom before he went to Lexington, and it was literally one of the worst experiences of my life.

And skinny dipping in your all's pool. And many nights getting drunk, and hitting my head on the bunk bed in your *old* room, and smoking on the porch swing and screaming at Luke, "Quit swinging, you're making my nauseous!" And playing video games, and the cats, when Callie was in heat and how Pheobe bit people when they pet her. And Seth saying, "I wuv you, Wuke." And Doug being really drink and screaming at me, "Why'd you steal, Winona, why?"

Lots more, that's all I can think of right now...

Also, I probably have left socks and jackets there, and I know my sweater from New Year's 2005 is still there. I remember when you and your friends were going to make a hang-out place in that garage behind your house, and leaving tire marks in your front yard by accident, and Luke almost killing himself putting up the X-mas lights and how no one bothered to take them down. And all the cigarette butts everywhere, and cutting Oreo's hair on the front porch, and all the millions of cans of Mountain Dew.

I'll always remember the house as the first place I found comfort, the place that my best friend lived, where no matter what was going on it was okay for me to be there in good times and the bad. I have had many things happen to me while I was around that house, it was the first and almost the only place a would ever spend the night because unlike others you and me would stay up all night together if the other was scared, or if we just wanted to sit around for hours on end talking about random silly things like having ESP and talking to Hanson..lol I was in that house the first time I found out I was going to a concert, I had my first kiss in the kitchen on new years, first time I snuck out in the middle of the night, stole Miller's car, had my first drink, colored my hair (chicken feet on my back), my first panic/emotional breakdowns, and your house was always the first place that I came back to after vacation. I have cried many times in that house( many of which you were right there on my shoulder) and laughed unitl I thougtht I would die, that house not only holds memories but my entire childhood/ adolescent years. There are many things that I will miss about that house,especially at christmas time...I don't know why but that house just seems to make the child and believer come out in people. It might have been messy there might have been animals all over the place but it was home.

suddenly the sky is falling
could it be it's too late for me
well if I never said I'm sorry, then I'm wrong, I'm wrong

Wow...the casa..too many things went on there. I remember you andliz bein too chicken shit to reach into Lukes closet when we switched rooms while he was gone, and I found the prehistoric cheeseburger. Having to venture into the basement to kick the breakers while we were fixing up the garage. The many collections of stop signs. Summer days not getting out of our pajamas and only getting off the couch to eat. Being introduced to Out Cold. Waking up and not knowing where my arms were. I became a body piercer at your house. Tryng to decide onnames for Ruca. Living on hot pockets. Burning kick ass Cd's that are still floating around in our cars. It was home...thats where my family was.

I remember my first kiss happened there at the stroke of midnight on new years eve I remember being mad at luke when he wouldn't play with us anymore, your house was also the only place I could stay at till 3 in the morning when I was just 13 years old and not get in trouble. yeah the house might have been a wee bit messy but thats what was great about it, I always felt welcome and felt that it was like a second home to me during those long summers when we were kids. Hopefully the next people that live there have as much fun as we did-love Sara
