HOORAY!!!


It is 100% official. We have brand new neighbors - a man and his wife- grown children. Really liked the peace and quiet of Genola. Many thanks for all of your prayers and the quiet acts of service on our behalf. A ton of thanks to Dad and Ramona for stepping in and finishing off the small details - curtains, backing for the fireplace, cleaning the ovens, the yard..... I could go on and on......
Hopefully life from here will normalize. Whatever THAT is!

Laila -
You are almost the best! The only way you could possibly be any better is to, say, go to CA in December!

Cindy said...

Hooray! That is just the best news in forever. I am so dang excited for you! (Though I notice I'm not invited to California???)

abstowe said...

Ha Ha. All are invited to CA in December. Though, I have not yet had any takers, so maybe we will not go either.

Ugh, I am a scrooge. What can I say. I just have SO many other much less exciting uses for my money at this point. Give me 5-7 years. We'll see what we can muster up. (i know, that is a long long time. I am sure if I save $5 every month I will have enough!)
