After shoveling my too large driveway, this morning, yes.

yes - there are times when I think about my ‘20’s era craftsman (I live about a mile from Husky stadium here in Seattle) and I ponder how nice it would be to move to one of those nice AND NEW condos downtown … but then my dog happily goes out and poops in the yard and I realize that I’ve got it pretty good.

Yes.
Especially, during Christmas break when all the kids are home and fighting about video games.
I imagine myself… alone… in a condo… far, far away.
CDA would work.
If anyone needs a condo-sitter for the next few weeks, I’m available.
Seriously.

I am a gardener, so condos don’t appeal to me. I spent a decade living in apartments, and it was enough to drive me batty.
I’m one of those people who actually LOVES yardwork, gardening, anything working with plants and landscaping - I find it therapeutic.
Even though I’m still a renter, I get to live in a house - I could never go back to living in an apartment or a condo - it would be a prison for me.
