I see in the previous post I mentioned the peacefulness of the new house. And it is much quieter here with much less traffic noise. I hear the wind rustling the leaves of our "forest" and because we are the only house at the end of a cul-de-sac there's not much traffic. We practically have everything out of the old house but a garage full of stuff here still to sort and put away. Most of the things we need for living though are away and the rest will need deciding about whether to keep or not. That work will wait until we return from our trips.

I put together Ikea bookshelves the last two days and now Bruce can get his office in order. I must say that it looks very nice.

The old house will have an open house while we're gone and hopefully will sell soon. It looks much more worn out empty so if we have no interest while we're gone I plan to spruce it up with paint. I need to get an electrician in soon because there's a live wire where we took out a basement wall heater that is dangerous.

I look forward to days of working in my studio and having classes here. We had a great get together for Harmon and Teri and I greatly enjoyed using my new kitchen.

I'm sitting in the new house just enjoying the peacefulness of it. We had our washer and dryer delivered yesterday and I am doing some laundry so I brought a camp chair and am knitting while the cycles go on the laundry.

Dad got the internet going here so I'm just trying out the blogger site. Have a good day.

Happy birthday, Bruce. 54 years ago, a few months before I was born, there was a cute little boy born in Akron, Ohio. Little did he know that our paths would meet and we would spend a wonderful life together and have a wonderful family. I am so thankful that God brought us together. Hope your day is fun and stress-free. See you soon for our celebration!
