BOXES, BOXES, BOXES

How many boxes can you get in a car, a small pickup truck, and a small trailer.




THIS MANY!

LOTS OF ACTIVITY







A few days can make a lot of difference. I was by our lot yesterday and there wasn't much going on. Terry went by today and the plumbers were there working hard.

CRAFT ROOM


Here is another used piece of furniture that I'm going to use in my craft room when we move to Huntsville. Amazing what a coat of paint will do for an old piece of furniture.

PACKING, PACKING, AND MORE PACKING



I think it is time to get some of these boxes moved to Huntsville. The basement is beginning to look like a warehouse.

The white chest that you can see in the first picture is for my craft room. I purchased it at an antique mall in Pelham. It will either hold my paints and painting supplies or cross stitch supplies.

DIRT HAS BEEN MOVED



I think we can officially say construction has begun. We'll definitely have to stop by more often now.

APPRAISED!

Gardendale house has finally been appraised. I think everything is good to go from what I could tell talking with the man. It has a few more stops to make in the process, but sounds like it will be ready in time to close on 3/31.

NEW TEMPORARY HOME


Since not much is happening with the new house, I thought I would show you a picture of our new temporary home. It's a decent size apartment, very clean, and well-kept grounds.

STILL PACKING

I'm still packing and waiting for the appraisal to be done. Supposedly, I should hear from them in the next day or two. The basement is quickly filling up with boxes. We hope to rent a storage unit soon to move some of the stuff to. We are going to check on our lot this week to see if any work has begun.

Until next time,

PACKING

Not much happened today. More packing. Took a break from packing in the basement. I think I breathed too much dust and dirt. I haven't felt good today. So, I did some packing in the kitchen. It's never ending. More tomorrow and the next day, and the next.....

Later,

NEW HOME


In about six weeks, we will be moving to Huntsville, Alabama. My husband's job is taking us there. We are excited and looking forward to building our new home in the River Landing community. I am going to try really hard to write what is happening as the building process progresses.

We have picked our lot and they are in the process of pulling all the permits needed. We will be watching for signs of activity on the lot. Stay tuned....
