Yeah!!! It's the night before vacation! The van is packed, the car-top carrier (Thank you again Sharon and Louis!) is locked up tight, the snack box is loaded, and the knitting bag is in place. We will wake up and eat breakfast, shut down the computer and leave, hopefully by 8am sharp. FYI: at the tone it will be 1:35 am. ....................................Dooooonnnnnng.
In other news, we looked at the house in Vass today. Lovely lot, wonderful hardwood floors, 3 closets (ouch), and honestly, not enough room. We have moved into something not quite right a time or two and I refuse to do it again. It's always a nightmare, and frankly, I'm too tired to re-do another house. We have enjoyed living here and just.....living. There is so much more time to play and go and do when we are not always trying to get this or that project done. This kitchen has spoiled me terribly, and I think it will be very hard to go back to the one counter-3 plug in-plywood cupboards-ugly linoleum kitchens of my past. I so enjoy making things in the kitchen for my family and having people over for supper. I want it to be a happy place.
American Water will not hear about the 50 year contract until Sept. 30th anyway, so nothing will be done until we know what's in the future for that. If we are to be leaving here in 2 more years, it's not be worth the hassle of moving. I really like the moving people---I'd like them to do it again next time.
We will return Thursday night and bright and early Friday we will begin the birthday day for T-Bird, who will be, unbelievably, 7 years old. His cake is baked, frosting mixed, enchiladas made, and everything is in the freezer to be pulled out Thursday night, ready for Friday's preparations. He's getting...SSSHHHHHH......don't tell...........a new bike, and the rest of the parts to the castle. For his "Mama-made" gift I have sewn a felt horse with wire armature so he can move, and a little brave knight figure in red. Just like T-Bird, my little brave knight. Pictures will be in order, I'm sure.
Have a great week, we will!
