Well, I hope this is the last move. I have jokingly referred to this one as the last new home before we go to “The Home.”
In 2003 we made our first move, as a married couple, to Seattle, Washington. Loved Seattle. Loved all the green year round, the
change of seasons, the little bit of snow we got most years, and I didn’t mind the rain. We moved up to the little town of Snohomish,
after about a year, and bought our very first house. We sold that house six years later and moved back down south to rent a lovely
town home while we looked for our permanent home. One year and two months post the move down from Washington, we packed it all up again and I swear, this is the LAST time I move all my stuff! My neighbor, you know who you are, told me I was a borderline hoarder. Now, while that comment stung a little, I must say that moving all this “stuff” [twice] has got me thinking she wasn’t far from the truth. This last house though is big enough to hold everything I have and is allowing me to put out many of the items that I have been “storing.” So, for the past few weeks I have been buried in a sea of boxes and have been slowing digging my way out. You know, moving state to state is easy, it’s the move “across the street” that will kill you! I can’t tell you how many trips my husband made on a daily basis to make sure everything got to the new house. He did pay me a nice compliment though by saying that when I started to put it all together, that was when the place was really going to look nice. That gave me a nice little warm fuzzy. Can’t say that some of the other things he said were so nice during the move though. Oh well.
Your former Snohomish house is covered with snow today!

Hi Peg,
I can’t wait for you to put up pics of your new place – like what your did with the place in Snohomish. I know you are busy, but when you are finished moving/sorting/decor-ing, get the photos up. Miss ya and many congrates.
