What was your family home like (where you were raised by your parents)? A tenement, a...

I guess a normal one. It changed over time. From a single room to a two story to a bigger two story.

I sometimes try to imagine living elsewhere. But after losing dad, we stayed elsewhere for a bit, an old home that was actually sold to a relative. It felt different then.

Now things are way better.
But point is, home and comfort and happiness are an inside thing. But yeah, it helps that you own the place and everything.

What's your story?

One story, 3 bedroom ranch house, no dining room, no den, no basement, 1 bathroom for 5 people, 1/4 acre lot with lots of trees, a couple great for climbing, a giant lilac bush which smelled amazing in the spring and was great for hiding beer as a teen! A neighborhood full of kids, wooded areas, walking distance to a cove and a baseball field a couple blocks away. Rode my bike to school. It was heaven on earth to me.

A 4-bedroom apartment with parents during school year and grandparent's house with small garden during the summer breaks, then usually also a week with parents or aunt in a house after my other grandparents.

A house on a very busy street with a big backyard and an alley behind it. it was light blue when we moved in but my dad had my brother paint it sea foam green. I would sit on the front steps and watch the traffic or wait for the mailman. I knew sometimes he brought samples and sometimes these samples were candy. I think that happened one time and I never forgot it, always waiting in hope for free candy. The house and a big dark green basement cement floor with bright orange stairs leading down. My brother would occasionally lock me down there and howl at me, just like a brother would. My dad worked as a body man out of the garage so it usually smelled a big like paint out there at least, and occasionally inside.

Me, my brother, my sister, and my daddy lived in a two-bedroom flat until I was about 14, we then moved into a decent sized detached house

It was always a work in process. It was an old farmhouse built in the 20s. Over the years Dad put a lot of work into it until it looked like a 1970s bungalow with an attached garage.

Nice house in southern CT on 4+ acres.
No complaints there.

A tarpaper shack literally on the wrong side of the tracks. I was often afraid a freight train would derail and roll down the hill, crushing us all. We lived on a gravel road that you had to drive through the town cemetery to get to.

From I was 7/8-17 I lived with my mom in a ghetto ass apartment lol. It was so easy to break in that I occasionally did it cause I forgot my keys 😂 but my bedroom was actually a living room so I had a biiig room 💁🏼‍♀ Before that we lived in my dads apartment which was a one-bedroom apartment, with a big “backyard” with a local playground and everything so it was nice, and I had lots of friends there.
