But have found my way back. Missed all of you.
We moved last year. Finally bit the bullet and decided the other house was too big for the three of us. Mom was lonely in the back half all by herself all of the time and we were barely using half the side we were in.
I fell in love with this place and bought it without first selling the one we were in.
We picked the hottest day of the summer to move. Rented a 27 ft truck and Hubs and I moved 2 full 3 bdrm houses all by ourselves.
I couldn\'t bare to leave our 30 year old perennial gardens behind, but we filled one entire load full of plants. Mom had been digging bulbs all summer. Had about 200 of them to plant. Drove them to the new house and had to dig gardens for them all.
We now live in an old renovated 1 rm schoolhouse that was built in 1809. Nearest neighbour is over half a mile away. Still has the original his and hers outhouses in the backyard which was perfect for the geese.
Can\'t wait for spring because moving was a blur and we really have no idea what plants are where.
