For Sale

In the morning I will often sit on the couch in the front room to eat a bowl of cereal. Occasionally I will go into the small sunroom, with its two cane chairs and large striped cushions, to look out toward the sea. I use the bathroom and laundry fairly regularly. I go into the bedroom mainly to sleep. I use the corridor to move between rooms and also when I am entering and exiting the house, although sometimes I will take the rear glass door and the side gate. I spend most of the time in the dining space adjoining the kitchen. That is where the table is located. The chairs are just basic pine chairs. The table is very plain as well. I bought the four chairs and the table for $30 altogether. The hippies across the street had put them out on the verge to be sold. It seems that that the wife had received a payout when she become redundant. They have since bought new dining furniture, which they describe as surfie-metal-gothic.
