Moving IN moving Out

Well, the focus has changed from getting the old house ready to sell to getting the new house ready to move in.

The pet smells in the new house were worse than we remembered, so we tore the carpeting out of all three bedrooms. Now we are also repainting them before we move in. The Rec room floor needed to be sealed to cover the pet smells in the tile that bleach and cleaning solutions didn't remove. Zinsser BIN works great for this, but is it potent. All of this has totally derailed work on the old place.

"Socialism's Last Stand"

"If you like poverty, inefficiency, and bureaucratic controls over the economy, and therefore control over your choices, the "climate change" movement is ideal."

It's Not Just That Global Warming Is Fake. What Matters Is Why This Fakery Is Being Promoted.

A lot of work and saving pays off BIG.

My wife and I have spent most summer weekends for the past 6 years looking for a house and property in the country that we both loved. This is it! We close the deal on July 23rd and take possession August 2nd.

I'm looking forward to mowing 3 or so of the 10 acres on or about 08/03/09, and Mama C. is... well, I'll talk about that another time. Check Other Photos for additional pictures.

There's an attitude for all seasons

My wife and I are reaching for a a long held dream, even though we're both in the Autumn of our years.

Some might say, "you really should be thinking Winter"; our attitudes, however, tell us it's still Autumn.

We're in the market for a house in the country (with acreage) to make our home -- most likely our last, in this life. The search and the weighing of some seemingly imponderable considerations have brought me closer to my Higher Power (which I call God) and other metaphysical thoughts.

This being one of them:

nodding reflections

rippled on the pond of time --

eternal glimmer
