Not
really sure of what to say. Our son, Jeff and dil, Cassie with our 3 munchkins
have bought a house in Murrieta, Ca. That means they will be
there for a while. So, these two old fogies are actually considering on
moving to be closer to our family. I do not sleep well when
stressed out and it takes its toll on me. We are looking at properties
on the internet and the prices are knocking my socks off. But, I think
we found an affordable place about 10 miles from their new home. We are now 100
miles away. I do not like, actually I dread driving from here to there
on those crazy California Freeways, and I worry like crazy when they
travel to visit from there to here.
Here is the "News Flash" !
We have really decided to list our house
'For Sale'
as of the 1st of September.
I won.t bore you any further with whys and why nots.
In
between all that is going on and decisions to be made I have completed
my new Halloween impression of those vintage paper mache cats. Her name
is..."Witchy Cat".
She is scarey enough to be adorable.
Her hat looks something like candy corn with a black pom pom on top and furry ears that are fuzzy white on the insides. Of course it is a punch needle pillow/tuck sort of ornie about 6" tall. I hope to have better and more pictures soon.
I'm almost finished with my final Halloween Treat...
he will be called "BOO" for now.
Another for now, I bid you all 'good night', as I have been up since 3 o'clock this morning and am getting a bit tired. Hubs and I actually managed to do our one hour walk early today.
I/we have so much to do getting our home ready for selling and then finding another to call 'HOME'.
Perhaps, by this time tomorrow, "BOO" will be finished. I'd love to be able to share this ghostly, JOL with you.
Tis time . . . Nitey nite friends, sleep tight with Peace and Blessings for ALL,
Barb

Again! Packing and sorting is not fun! I hope you find something you love.
ReplyDeleteMe too, but I really want to be closer to family.

ReplyDeleteThat is exciting news. Good luck on your selling and buying. Hopefully it won't be too stressful.
I do love your Witchy Cat!
Hugs :)

Thank you so much and Yes, Stress can be exciting. We are really getting anxious and just want to get the selling and moving over with. I love Halloween. Did I ever tell you that I went Trick or treating when in high school and also in college? I was and still am short so I could get away with it. Some of my friends weren't as lucky, but we had fun! And my youngest daughter Pam is 5'-10" and my youngest son Jeff is 6'-4"...don't ask. Loved seeing your travels and rug hooking...beautiful work,
DeleteEnjoy and be happy, Peace and Blessings for all, Barb
Your Witchy Cat is so much fun !!!
ReplyDeleteHave fun looking for new digs ! (It's suppose to be fun , right ?)

I enjoyed remembering those paper mache cat buckets for my design. Moving is fun when it is over and done. We have grandchildren and just should be relaxing enjoying retirement. Just hope it all goes well and I will be a happy camper again.
DeleteThanks for visiting and you comment too,
Have a great weekend ... Peace and Blessings for all,
Barb
Hi Barb,
ReplyDeleteYour new design is so adorable!! You sure have been busy!!
Moving is something I am VERY familiar with and it is NEVER EASY, but hoping everything will fall into place smoothly!! Hope you find the PERFECT NEST!!
Heart Hugs~

Hi Julie ... I am late as usual. Loved your comment and thanks so much for visiting. Actually, we were hoping to move to Idaho...but too far from the kids. Sooo looks like we stay in California. It's cooling off here with humidity and some small chance of rain...wishful thinking.
DeleteEnjoy the week and keep on creating.
Folk Art Hugs to you, Barb
