the old and the new

077

I drove my yellow car to the sea.  Mile upon mile she courageously drove through mountains and prairie winds.  I sat behind her steering wheel kind of nervous as she is a very old lady,  but she did it and now she is getting used to her new home and the drizzle and salty air.  I think she likes it as we both sat staring at the boats and the grayish-greenish cove water and smiled.  

We are about to put an offer on a house ( I think) but I’m hesitant as I worry about every decision and analyze every aspect.  We could just live on base which has a lot of pros as the location is great but schools (meh) and space (12,000 pounds of books) make me want to live elsewhere.  We want an old house (do we?) as that is where we are happiest (right, husband?).

I hope you are well and that the sun shines in your heart.

Best of luck on your house hunt! I have been wondering if you were soon to be moving.

I love how you tantalize your husband with your ideas in your blog. I hope mine subliminally absorbs my desires through the blogosphere wherever that is exactly. Have fun house hunting!

Enjoy the ocean for me! It has been way too long since I felt the sand in my toes.

To buy or not to buy, what a question, lol.

Sounds very exciting to be house hunting. I'm hoping we get on to that in a year or so. I vote for an old house (not that we're voting...), as long as the bones are strong (plumbing/electrical). They just seem to have more character!

So happy for you friend. But does this mean you're officially...(gulp) gone?
