Come See Us!

Well here we are in our new little home in Moses Lake. Cozy like 2 peas in a pod. It only took us a month to move and its all we've done night and day! I didn't know 2 people could accumulate that much crap! we just moved 6 years ago and gave away so much stuff its hard to believe we were right back where we were. Like hoarders actually, only not with garbage. I just didn't realize how much food storage I had. Not until I had to watch the guys from Pure Line Seed - who were helping us move-lug it all up from the basement. I did realize one bit of advice I am passing on to anyone who cares to listen, If you have a basement, never take anything down there you don't want to drag back up out of it. Also never, and I repeat never, remodel your stair case so you can't get things back out of your basement when you move. Jeff and Lily have inherited and a big screen TV, a queen size bed, a couch and love seat, 2 recliners. The freezer came with the house when we bought it and I don't know how they will ever get it out of there if it dies. Well, lesson learned. None of it would have fit in our tiny cottage anyway. I will really miss that house at Christmas time. I know I can still have my family here but it was nice to spread everyone out, kids in the basement and adults upstairs. When we bought that house - it was our last house. The house we would retire in and live till we died. But I never realized my knees would give out on me and I couldn't go up and down the stairs anymore. I never realized how far Moses Lake was and how much more often I wanted to see my grandkids. Life is funny that way. It changes our perspectives constantly and we move to new phases in our lives. We hope to retire someday and this is the perfect place for us. Well, thats what we think right now, we'll see how we feel in a couple of years. At my age I never know how I'll feel tomorrow. Everyone please feel free to come visit us. We are at 3010 W. Peninsula Drive #97. Its easy to find and we welcome your visit.
