I haven't been updating the blog in so long. There is no way to catch everything up but so much has happened in the past few years. We fixed up our house in CT and sold it, moving to NC until we could get a house built on our farm land. As you may remember the pandemic. There was no way to build anything. So we ended up staying at our rental and while there we decided that it was too cold there.
Buying a house was just as much as problem. Housing Market went sky high, bids were placed in cash well above the asking price, some were bought with an hour of being listed. We did finally luck out and bought a cute little farm house but it sure needs a lot of work. Work we will get to someday but at least we have a place to call 'home' even though it has none of the things I would have liked. An example is this house has one bathroom. I wanted 2. The bathroom it does have is small and doesn't even have a bathtub, it has a small shower stall. The bedrooms are small, the kitchen is large but useless as far as cabinets and space goes. It has a total of 3 outlets in it. One to run the refrigerator and 2 others. In fact, the bedrooms and living room is the same way as far as outlets go...not enough. One or two outlets in a bedroom. So this place really puts 'space saving' and things that can be done at one time to a test...but it is 'home'.
There is no way to scrapbook here so I did get rid of all my scrapbooking supplies. I also don't have my sewing machine set up here so no sewing....yet. I do have plans on setting that up but have to change some rooms around first and find all my machine parts which many boxes were stored away at another location so it won't be anytime soon. I do keep myself busy with the garden. That is one thing here, a nice big yard with lots of room for a garden. I will talk more about that in another post and putting the pond in. Just know that it will take me years to plant this yard so believe me, I can stay busy for a long time.
Another thing you should know is that we love it here in SC.
Not scrapbooking?! (Gasp!) I'm glad you're happy where you are and am glad you're back to blogging!
