Well it has been some since I have been able to post but I have made an effort to keep up with everyone’s blogs whenever possible.
We sold our “old” home and are set to move into the new one in two weeks! I am very excited and yet sad to be leaving a home that has been full of love and nurture for six years.
I have spent these last few, four maybe, picking out counter tops, paint colors, curio bathroom unit, kitchen cabinets, kitchen faucets, lighting fixtures (still have not found that foyer chandelier), new toilet seats, new towels for the now three bathrooms we have, and buying items such as a Shark floor cleaner and a Dyson vacuum to keep the new house clean.
The dogs have not had much of my time I must confess, the new fence at the new house does not go up until next week therefore they have had to stay at home during the day while I work, and then for a few extra hours in the evenings when I go to the new house and most of the day on the weekends. I miss spending down time and play time with them as much as they miss being with me. But in two weeks we will be all done with the renovations on our only eight year old home (LOL I had to change it to make it mine) and we will all be living and spending more time together.
One goal is to walk each night with the dogs, I most certainly need the exercise and they just love to walk with me and enjoy the new scents and surroundings of the outside. The other goal is to be sure as I finish, who am I kidding, to be sure when I pack I give much to Goodwill! Heaven knows I have not looked, nor missed, many items that are still in boxes from when we moved down here from RI in 2000.
Well, I must run to the new house and I promise to be back “full-time” in just a few shorts weeks.
As a side note, the picture on top is how I feel about all the packing I still have left to do!

Cute picture, I love it!! I hope your move goes well. Interesting story, when my parents moved into the house they have now, they thought they were going to get this lovely crystal chandelier that was in the hallway. It was there at signing and then when they came back a couple hours later to start moving in items, it was gone. It wasn't in the contract that they were leaving the crystal chandelier, so they took it with them, and left a super cheep light fixture.
Congratulations on your new house. What a happy occasion for you and so busy you are. Hope moving won't be too much of a strain and drain. Good luck!
