Well, we made it. We packed up all our belongings (which are always more than you think)and moved. A caravan of cars, trucks and trailers, belonging to friends, loaded up everything we own and drove in one trip from Snohomish to Arlington. No Uhaul, no moving van, just friends. Chris had to keep the business running so he wasn't even there to direct. A wonderful group of Christian men (and I emphasise the Christian part because if they were not Christian I think there would have been a fist fight)loaded, directed, unloaded and were still speaking to each other afterwards. Amazing. God is good! Hannah came up before all the workers and prepared sausage and peperoni Stromboli to feed the hungry crowd. Yum!
We really love our new home and we love the neighborhood too. We are on the side of a mountain with acres of trail and miles of county roads to walk. We have a nice close up view of the geese flying by (and a helicopter once in a while) because of the elevation. I will try to write more about it later.
The past few weeks we have been running in between our old house and new one. Our Realtor decided we needed to neutralizing our rooms to get it ready to sell. He thought we have too much color. I spent the last ten years trying to get some color into that house and I just spent the past two weeks painting it off white. {:o( At least it looks freshly painted.
It is now on the market and we will be holding our breath until it sells. I hope and pray that it will really soon.
Hopefully my mind will come back to writing again, right now I seem to fall into bed exhausted every night. It's good exhaustion though. A good day spent working with my family.
Blessings,
Lori
