might not make a rancher

It has been a while, to update you all. Built the new house, moved after thirty years (or so) and have been here about eight months now.It has been a hard move. Don't seem to find the place a very friendly spot. I am not sure if I ll make a rancher or not? It is very isolated here, and the folks are not the artistic type, nor are they the tolerant or intellectual type. So..... where the heck do I come in?  And my poor kids, yikes, there were four kids in the third grade when the year started, my twins made it six and I think we have added one or two more this year. My kids are good kids, good grades quite and polite. Needless to say it has been quite a learning curve for all of us here. But the saddest thing for me is I have not seen my kids laugh and play till in eight months. They seem sad, lonely and bored. Well its almost summer and I am not sure what I will do about all this but......hopefully something!!!!!   I did build a stunning home.
