You can't go home, but you can pack your memories with you! I love this. So true. The homes of both sets of my grandparents have been torn down, and I forget they don't exist anymore, because they're safe and sound in my memory. Well done with this story!

I love the plaintive way the narrator lays out the story of her life. You did a wonderful job of capturing the beats that make up a life and you grounded them with the furniture of details that brought the place to life.
