MOVED

I'm finding out it is taking much longer to unpack that it took to pack. And I can't seem to decorate until I look at lots of things to decide where they should go. This house doesn't have very many walls to hang things and it smaller than our last house.

The cats moved really good which is a good thing.

I'm hoping to find the camera so I can take some pictures soon.

This move has been a huge change. And one thing that is driving me crazy is NO tv. Or should I say NO local channels.....which means no 24, NCIS, NAscar, or House. We have 100+ channels and nothing to watch. I know this is crazy but I really miss local news!
AND the 'outside' noise is driving SO loud! Did I say I'm not a country girl!

I'm sure it will all work out but right now I feel like I'm in a different country......but then again with all that has happen in Washington a different country could be a good thing!

MOVING UPDATE

WELCOME

TO THE CABIN

These were taken last fall so it isn't green at all now.

But new things are starting to green up!
This wonderful tree is the view from the front porch!

And I have an 8' porch ALL

around the house!
Wonderful views from all sides.

Do you know how many of us can

gather

to

hook and knit

and spend hours visiting!

The moving truck is coming Tuesday the 16th

to move the big stuff.

We have been moving smaller stuff for weeks.

It has been a long time since we closed in January

until actually moving in and I'm more than ready.

A new an exciting adventure I'm sure!
Just hope I don't freak at being in the "country"!

Our new neighbors have been telling us all

about the wildlife we will see.

Lots of turkeys, deer, racoons, squirrls and

the best is lots of bobcats if we

watch carefully for them.
This is where a family of bald eagles live about

2 miles from us!

We saw them once.

This is a railroad viaduct in the background.

It is 3/4 of a mile long and built in early 1900's.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Where has December gone?
As I watched it snow today it really got me a Christmas mood.

The snow didn't last amount to anything but

it sure looked pretty while it was coming down!
I've spend the last few days knitting...

working on a few quick presents

that I didn't decide to make until last minute.

But I work so much better under pressure.

We are waiting for our closing date,

which they are saying is January11th.

It seems to be taking forever.

Just can't wait for it to be ours and then the moving will begin.

Now that part I can do without!

I want to wish all of you a very

Merry Christmas!

WHERE AM I

This is such a good question.....

We moved and had to be out

of our house November 21st.

And between the time we sold our house we

bought a house/log cabin

in southern Indiana.

We are renting a house

until we close on the new cabin

and move.
MOVE again

I think it might kill us!
We are way too old for all this work!

Right now everything is stacked to the ceiling.

Nothing to do around here but that will change

once we get into the new place.

We have LOTS of plans

and

work for it.
Even though it is great shape we want

to make it ours.

This is a view from the front porch!

And the porch is like this on all four sides!

Right now it looks like it will be Janurary before we move again!
Plenty of time to get rested and ready!

MOVING

I know I have been MIA but this fall has FLOWN by!

Come to think about it

we have hardly had any fall weather.

Past few days have felt like end of November

not mid October!

Neil retired September 1st

and live around here is 'different'!

We sold our house 3 weeks ago.

Now we are homeless!

Since it had been on the market for months

and nothing we had quit looking at houses.

Now we are looking everywhere

but so far nothing exciting

that we can afford.

Above is just ONE cabinet FULL of STUFF!

I freak thinking of packing and moving.

But there is one good part of all this.

Sorting and getting rid of things we don't need.

And the wool room is getting packed for who knows

how long.

I'll try to update more often.

IT IS OVER FOR ANOTHER YEAR

I can't believe the Rug Hooking Retreat is over for another year!

Thanks to all to attended and also for the visitors we had on Wednesday!

I'm working to unpack everything and

and get it back on shelves!
This isn't such a bad job as I always

seem to find a special color of wool

that I just need to use.
Since I really didn't get to hook at camp

I'm ready to get hooking!
Enjoy the last couple days of July...........

Where did the summer go......

RUG HOOKING RETREAT STARTS

I can't believe it is July 18th already

which means

the Rug Hooking Retreat starts

tomorrow evening

at the Canyon Inn at McCormick's Creek, Indiana!

It will be great to see old friends

&

meet new ones!

And remember Wednesday July 22, is the

wool & pattern shopping day!

Anybody that wants to stop in

to see what everybody is working

on is welcome!
From 1-4 PM!

Hopefully I will remember my camera

and will post pictures when I return!
