We live out in the country. Not way, way out, but far enough outside of town that we have well water. We’re fortunate enough that even though it does have a sulfur problem, it’s only in smell and not in color. This morning I woke up and when I turned on the kitchen faucet to [...]

I told you a few weeks ago that when I could, I would take pictures of the beautiful view I have from my window here by my computer. Well, I decided that my window wasn’t enough and took pictures of the view from every window in the house….LOL! Some of the pictures didn’t [...]

As you know, we moved a few weeks ago. I’m happy to report that we’re all adjusting and settling in very well, even the dogs. We had to upgrade the exterior lighting at the front and back door because the lighting that was there just wasn’t bright enough. We’ve now come to [...]

Little by little things are coming along here at the new house. This morning we get the last of the furniture put “in place” in the family room, it’s really starting to look good, now I just need to get my pictures and things put up on the walls. I also need to come up [...]

I think the biggest thing I dislike about moving is the fact that it takes forever to find the box that you packed something specific in but forgot to mark that box with what was in it. Once again, I’m in a position where I need my safety utility knife and cannot find it. [...]

I felt so bad, yesterday was my hubby’s birthday, and he spent a good part of the day with me at the old house finishing getting our stuff out. I’m so glad to finally be out of that house! It seemed like a dream come true when we first moved into it 2+ [...]

Please don’t get me wrong, I’m honestly not complaining about our new house already! It was a lot of work cleaning it and getting it ready to move into, but I’m glad that I did so! Unfortunately I’m realizing now that we’re going to have no choice but to replace the current kitchen [...]

It’s been a VERY long 10 days since we got the keys to the new house. Some of the time in those 10 days have been good times, while others have not been so good. But I’ve learned several things in the past 10 days
I’ve learned that there is a HUGE difference between dirt and [...]

I thought I’d give you some of my likes and dislikes about the new house, now that we’ve actually been in it for 24 hours.
LIKES
I like that no matter which window of the house I look out, I am surrounded by the beauty of nature!
I like the fact that the dogs have finally calmed down [...]

Everything that requires more than one person to lift and move has now been brought to the new house! A HUGE thank you goes out to my sister and her husband, they came down today and helped us “git ‘er done”! I am most thrilled about the fact that I don’t have to [...]
