Anne, it was/is still only a material thing, it doesn't breathe, eat, talk or has any emotion it just gives you shelter. What you have now is better for you, less worry and stress and expense.I am sorry if I sound harsh but I found out years ago material things do not make a happier you.
Yes, it was a bill for me that I remember that my children have benefitted but not in good ways for my darling son his teenager years were very difficult because we move in next door to me Dad.
