The other day I watched Olive for Sasha and we took some great pictures. Beth, Sabine, and Rowan came over. All the kids were on their beswt behavior and with the ample new space we all were able to get spread out. I snapped this picture after asking the two kids to smile. I figure it will be great motivation to succed in high school when presented as a article of black mail.

Settling In

We have experianced such a massive change from our place on Commercial to here. Eliot loves it as do we. I definately miss and will have fond memories of our old spot. Russell St seems to be made for us.



I am getting my stuff all into place. The living room is beautiful and we are working to get the porch to the same level. It will allow us to figure out what we will be doing this summer with veggies and flowers.

We are here, so now what

This is a picture of a very loud heater that is making strange noises while it helps us not freeze. It must be a hard job because it screams and moans all while it does its work.

The have moved and said goodbye to the Commercial St. location. It is time for us to unpack, continue painting, buff floors, clean windows, get curtains. The stuff that will take about two years for a normal human to do. Luckily I am not normal(some say more subhuman). I have projected the goal of finishing later this week. This is so we can finally relax and say there is not any house work aside from the usual. Being insanely busy has had some excellent side effects. I have been sleeping earlier, better, and longer. I have lost my gut for the most part. Focusing on something with a beginning and end has made me work harder. It has been a great move. Although I will miss the people on fridays and Saturdays screaming as they step in eight inch deep puddles in front of our building, the new place is fantastic. I will also miss our friends who I truly loved seeing in our old place but that is the stuff you have to accept I guess with any move.

hello moving

here are some pics of eliot and my trip to the train museum. it was loads of fun to see how well entertained he was by an empty old building save for a few trains. also a pic of the boy getting his first piercing.




well we are about as under the gun as humanly possibly. i have been kicking butt and taking names this week on the new place as the mama manages the packing. probably not the best idea to work every day this week but it is going to be just fine.

SSSOOOO

The move is getting a foothold. i am making arrangements, jess and i are deciding what does need to get done and when. There are some things that need to get done eventually. We are both quite sure that the place is wonderful but needs some armourers to help its lack of walk-in closets and such. that is of course why i am putting this out there. If you know of a good deal, have a good deal to offer, or just want to comment on our interest in an armourers by all means....

This is a picture Jess took I thought was just perfect for my vision of the planning of a move for Eliot
