Tracy s house on the South Hill
Loss is part of change, but so is renewal
Just a few days ago I sold my little blue house on Spokane’s South Hill.
For over a year, I haven’t lived there full-time and have been renting it out to some friends. Still, the sale was bittersweet.
I bought the house in 2013 at my grandma’s prompting.
“You need to invest in something,” she said. “Otherwise, all you have is a box of receipts.”
But that house was more than an investment.
It was the only address I’ve kept in my adult life for more than a year or two. It was where I laughed and learned and cried and felt safe.
