New House, Temps, Clouds and Sun, B&W Gate

 Brothers new house.

Now I had to laugh as

I was counting backwards to 

how many homes Ray has owned,

or better yet how many times

he has moved.

Last time they moved from

11,000 sq foot home to a 6000.

Now from 6000 to a little over 3000.

Talk about downsizing. 

We started the packing and 

the moving of those

boxes and bins to the new house

then unpacking.

Reusing boxes and bins

again and again, great way to 

move. They actually have three

months in which to move.

Like my mom, Ray is a 

collector of all things he likes.

Hell, so are Mark and I.

HAHA

So, there is a lot to go through.

Not only do we have boxes

to go to the house, we have 

boxes and bins to go to NC to the 

cabin and then stacks of items

for a big sale in the large on the 

property. When I say garage, its

a big garage that Ray had built

when my nephew was racing.

The more stuff that gets 

pulled together for a sale is 

best, then

they are hiring someone to 

come in and do that for them.

 

My brother has offered

things to me every time

I turn around! LOL

They are holding a chair, 

an antique dresser and my 

mom's oak curio cabinet for 

me. I need a cabinet behind 

glass for my Oz stuff and this

will be perfect. But as I stressed

before, I don't care for light oak.

I am going to take out the glass

shelves and put in wood, then 
I am going to paint it.

As for the chair, I was looking

for one for the living room. It is 

not a large comfy chair but it 

is pretty. If I don't use in there,

I will put in my room.

And the dresser, its white 

and adorable. Lori bought it

years ago, then offered it to me, 

but I had no room for it. She kept 

it and used it in this home. I am

excited to get it cause the guest room

only has a bed, and a cedar

 chifforobe in there. 

With that, I don't need a lot 

of stuff so I am trying to not

take things. However, Ray has

a bunch of stackable blocks that

I am getting for the yard. YAY!

 

So pretty.

I am so happy for them.

Today, they were to have the 

dude come out about building a 

large garage but due to the 11 degree

temps, they

canceled. Parties and get 

togethers will be held out there, and 

not in the house. 

NICE.

I took this pic on

the way home yesterday.

It was a cold 27 degrees but

the sun was out!

This was one of my 

favorite shots from Rays house

but turning it B&W, I 

love.

OH MY GOSH...

I had to laugh when I 

saw this!

Now, go pull out your

crocks and crochet on!
