Strange bedroom that slopes.

For a few months we shared it, with the bed organized so that our feet pointed down the hill.

Later, for years, it was hers alone, and she moved the bed to where she would wake and see out the windows.

I use it now, with the bed as far into the corner as possible, away from everything else in the silly sloping house that I wish was still ours, and not now mine alone.
