Flash back to June 27th . . . we left Chicago for
our new life in New Mexico. It was a very difficult last few weeks . . . saying
goodbye to my dear friends and family even though there were promises of seeing
them soon… Our plan was that we
would be renting a house until about the July 4th weekend, well we
learned quickly we now live in the land of “manana” (an attitude we will grow to love but not when
waiting to get into the house) and when
building a home you are at the mercy of inspectors. . . Flash forward to July 23rd we finally get clearance to move in . . . yes we were a bit off on our schedule of the 4th weekend! It was a crazy adventure those 3 weeks but we managed to hang in there because really what choice did we have?! Since moving in we have been working like crazy trying to unpack, organize, and of course buy things that we want/need to make it a comfy home for us and for those who may come out to visit. There will be more to come on this new adventure . . . but for now I will go out back and enjoy the view of a hot air balloon flying in the sky. . . a site I hope never becomes “normal”
I don't know where you are in NM, but I'm in Denver & have been there many times. I hope you enjoy your new home & the setting. I think it's a magical place!
ReplyDeleteYeah! You made it! I know it was a crazy, stressful couple of weeks for you, but finally you are in your new house and making it your home. I cannot wait to see some pictures! Enjoy the "manana" now -- you can actually stop and watch the hot air balloons, there's no rush!!! Hugs Lynn!
ReplyDeleteA new house, life, and way of thinking, enjoy it all!
ReplyDeleteI love New Mexico....travel there every year for workshops and board meeting just north of Santa Fe. You sound like you are on a new adventure. Relax and enjoy....and of course, enjoy the hot air balloons out there. Wondering where you are.... http://familytrove.blogspot.com/
