Housewife Gone Wild

Loose 563

Texting on my phone, I walked back into my place. This big house–over 1,800 square feet–suddenly felt so empty and cold.

I switched on every light, and the whole place lit up.

“Let’s call it a night, I’m beat after today. Goodnight, guys,” I said, tossing my phone onto the sofa before heading off for a shower.

That night, I tossed and turned in bed for ages before finally drifting off into a deep sleep.

When a relationship fades away, it’s like the ocean tide receding–some feelings always get left behind, like sea creatures stranded on the shore, thrashing around for a bit before finally going still.

I didn’t expect getting over it to drag on this long, but as work kept piling up, I barely had time to dwell on the heartbreak.

We’d originally planned to finish the hotel renovations before the year was out, but things were way too rushed and not everything was ready, so we ended up postponing it until after the new year, deciding to open up shop when spring was in the air.

By the end of the year, the dividends from both companies landed in my account, and when I saw the number, my heart was pounding.

Guess it’s time to figure out how to invest this money.

Real estate was on fire right now, so I decided to put some into real estate and the rest into gold. I’ve always been wary of getting into stocks since I don’t really know the ins and outs and can’t manage the risks. I know Bitcoin’s supposed to be a good investment too, but after thinking it over, I decided to give it a miss.
