Quasi… Almost…

Happily,  we are almost completely settled…This move has been difficult,  to say the least.  So many emotions,  and so much to do.  Unpacking every day and working hard to make this townhouse "ours".  It is definitely coming together and feeling like home.  Loving our new view and having fun putting the new outdoor space together.  With Mark's generous spirit and hard work,   we have a great deck. The smaller outdoor entertaining/gardening area means much less work.. but it is definitely looking like "our place".  It was  great having mom over for the first time… Priscilla was in town so we had a small family dinner,  only nine of us.  We are loving it and can't wait for our first dinner party with the rest of the family and friends … very soon!

    Mary, so glad you're settling in your new home. Such a beautiful view! And you're already cooking for family, how wonderful. I really think you will love your small and cozy space. Not as much to clean, and it will soon feel like "home." Your twinkling lights really add charm to the deck.

    love, ~Sheri

    Hi Mary,
    I feel your pain on settling in a new townhome and having it feel like home. Been there this past month too. It takes some time but it finally feels like home. You will like the smaller space for feeling cozy. Rooms are used in smaller space and you do not have spaces that sit unused. Love that view just gorgeous. Happy New Home.

    A me sembra già 'casa'. Il tuo deck è davvero bello.

    A presto
