<p>Good Morning, eh, Night Folks,</p> <p>I had a pretty bad night - just could not go to sleep. That house issue is really eating me up, to a degree, which is certainly not good for me.</p> <p>Janie, is that you? I´d like my coffee in an IV bag this morning, no, nothing to eat, as I have to watch my diet. Thank you.</p> <p>The house was very special to my family and me. It was meant to be home for us, a place for generations to come. My grandfather had to leave his home, when the part of Germany he lived in was turned to Poland, following the Versailles Treaty. As a WW I lieutenant, the Polish did not want him to stay. Shortly before the end of WW II, the family had to give up their home again, as the Red Army rolled over Eastern Germany. Since then, we never had a place to be called home, until I built that house. It took more than a year to come up with the plans for each detail, as it follows historical design and construction principles. Now it will be home to a brainless (expletive, deleted) - I just can´t get over it. Something inside me must have broken ...</p> <p>It is about time that Petra and I pack up and go - but where to? Is there a place for us, which we will be able to call "home" again? I am starting to get my doubts on that.</p> <p>You all have a good day!</p>
