I have been totally neglectful over here because so much STUFF has been going on. While usually “stuff” translates to “quick! Run to the blog and document it all” this time there has been so much stuff that there has not been a moment to catch up. Which is why I am neglecting my groaning [...]

We have a rocking chair that makes appropriate creaky stretches with each arc of a rock. The chair was in storage but it is now sitting right next to me. The “new” house is full of fantastic nearly 100 year old creaks. Every step in the house is a sound and after a day or [...]

If you follow me on twitter then you probably rolled your eyes over my tweets more than once yesterday. They went a little something like this: My Mother starts a NEW JOB today!! I’m getting ready to drive my Mother to her NEW JOB right now! I just dropped my Mother off at her office!!!!!!!! [...]

I’m not trying to brag or anything but I have become a bit of an expert on speeding through apartment listings on Craig’s list. I imagine most of you that have searched for a home in this method quickly morphed into a power searcher learning what listings were repeats, what listings were total scams (Really? [...]

The field trip to Philly was very helpful for us. We looked at three different areas and it was sort of calming to get a sense of imagining our life there. Obviously nothing got settled yesterday as we are still very much in the absorbing stage of things in terms of location and financial reality, [...]

It is oh so funny to be a fly on the wall watching me search apartments for a place for us in the Northeast. But I promise I won’t drag you into the expected anxiety over that- because I know that is so not enjoyable to read about. Instead I will tell you that we [...]

Still not quite there in the head-space to write/share stuff about Millie. I can say that she has, I suppose for lack of a better word, stabilized. But it is still not good.
