SOL 4/19/16 - Currently

I've been trying to dig deep into the recess of my mind for something to write about and draw nothing but blanks, so

Currently

Thinking - about our next trip to Illinois to celebrate the girls' 6th birthday and to help with the move to a new house, a new school, a new adventure.

Listening - to Max' labored breathing.  He's had a rough couple of days with his back legs and incessant panting.  

Enjoying - The simplicity of my life.  The days when I don't have anything planned.  The books that I love to read.  The cards that I create.  The scrapbooks that are waiting for me to put together.

Planning - Our trip to Boston, Cape Cod and New Hampshire with our son and daughter-in-law.  Reservations made, researching where to go, reading about the Freedom Trail.

Loving - Our "new" home that we moved into last July.  We are making it in to our style, with the addition of wood covered walls in the bedroom and dining room.

Wanting - Ummm.  Nothing.  I am happy, filled with joy, loved and cared for, content, blessed....

    Isn't it a great feeling not to want anything because everything is just right?

    I'm thinking about the same things you are -- the new house, the new school and the new adventure that awaits! Currently, life is good. That's a good place to be.

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014
