Moving Day...Sort Of

Well the day has finally come to move into our new home.....sort of. The movers were here a little ahead of time. We were there on time. The house is still not ready, but we made do. The kitchen is still not in, nor the bathroom fixtures and cabinets. The flooring on the main level is still not complete. The carpting in the basement is not finished yet. But, we were able to do what we needed to do. Hopefully the next couple of weeks will go by quickly, and we will finally be able to completely move in.

Independence Day

Today is Independence Day....the Fourth of July. It's an odd situation we're in, but we will make the best of it. We still haven't moved into our new home yet, but it will be finished in a couple more weeks. So, we will be celebrating in our temporary home...a one-bedroom cottage. Being new in town makes one feel a bit on the perimeter, but our new neighbors have made us feel at home, even though we are not quite at home. We probably won't be hosting a cookout this year, but there is a great place in town that has the best barbecue I've had in a good while. We will stop by and pick up a little something, then maybe take in some of the local flavor. There are quite a few things going on around town today, so I'm sure the kids will enjoy the day without feeling like they are missing our usual celebrating. Of course, what would the Fourth of July be without fireworks? I am told there will be fireworks, so hopefully the kids will enjoy those too. Happy Fourth!
