We are at last all moved in and mostly unpacked. We have resolved assorted plumbing issues. My various poison ivy and poison oak outbreaks have become tolerable. The roof/chimney still needs to be fixed and the people behind us wish the brick wall surrounding our yard for the last 20 years would disappear. It apparently is partially on or over their property line.
Over all though, we love it here. The yard is big. The house has lots of room to grow into. Bunnies run through the yard but stop to eat wild strawberries. Best of all, we are near many wonderful people.
It is good to come back to our routines. We have had more time to sit and read good books while snuggling. DD's math book actually got finished a couple of weeks ago. Today, we made muffins and will take them over to the fire station. Next week, we leave for a trip to Connecticut to meet up with DH. Life is very good right now. I am trying not to think of what could possibly go wrong, but it has been a long, long time since things have felt this manageable. I don't know what the future holds, but I know the moment. I'm taking care to breathe and be thankful.
Happy Day!
