We bought a two-point-six acre wooded lot with a house and detached garage on it. It’s got everything we want – good school district, room to run, and shared waterfront. We are very thankful that this worked out, and will be working very hard to spruce up the new digs.<\/p>\n
Today, I spent six hours raking the lawn areas and removed some overgrown ivy-like plants from the front corner of the house. The grounds are already looking far<\/em> better. Just in time for snowfall. <\/p>\n I was less successful in selecting the correct garage door remote. I chose grey. Should have picked purple. No biggie.<\/p>\n Yogi Bear the dog has no idea what is going on. He’s like a lawyer on vacation. He stays by my side and can’t seem to relax for fear of being left behind. Once he settles in, he should have a much improved life, as he’s not meant for a condo.<\/p>\n Our stuff is still in boxes and spread all over, but the house – the feel of being home – is taking shape. It won’t be long and we’ll be in order and have a house warming party for ourselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We bought a two-point-six acre wooded lot with a house and detached garage on it.
