What a lovely piece! Having only lived a few years here, a few years there, I don't have a house that holds me that way. My longing and my sense of place are a vague, free-floating yearning for sun, for sky, for heat, lizards on the wall. But I do know what you mean about missing the sense of them, the family, all around me. I miss them still and, as much as they annoy me, I would like nothing better than to have them all live on my street to bicker with in that comfortable way that only people who love each other unconditionally can do.

Ah! Got to love those lizards on the wall! :) I sometimes wish that I was less sedentary, and was more free-floating in my yearnings! I think the rest of my family have been more adventurous and gypsyish - even my parents upped sticks and retired to a completely different state. Make that "State"...
