Now we can really settle in
Boy, I got pretty darn cheesy and sentimental in that last one. At any rate, our brains are now free of thinking of the last house and we can move forward with this one, and all the other plans in my head. I mean, I don’t want to be looking back too wistfully so I can’t enjoy what’s in front of me now.
I mean, we did pick this house in this spot for some pretty good reasons. I’m uploading more pictures, so be sure to click on through to Flickr and check them out.
Ron and I are running errands today - in and out of the house, up and down the highway. He stopped in to the hardware store earlier to pick up a load of pellets. While there, he asked about window prices. We have a whole lot of them - 19 or 21 are all the same size, all original, all pretty darn cold what with the single pane of wavy glass. They are 2 feet by 5 feet. Large. They all need to be replaced. But the hardware store has a decent price for one, a lot less than we thought - about $300. That was the good news for today. (There’s 39 windows & exterior doors in total - most, if not all, will be replaced.)

I’m so happy to hear that your house is sold. What a weight to carry for so long. I’m sad that there wasn’t some way for us to transplant it to our lot here. I loved it that much. And I didn’t even live in it! Glad you can move forward. Limbo is no fun.
