A Fresh Breath....

I have been feverioushly working on getting things ready for a massive Garage Sale. We have a beautifully finished basement, but you wouldn't know it from the boxes, and bags just piled on the floor and on the Tables, both 8 foot long dining Table Sets. I could just open my own store right out of my basement. I wonder if my little historic city here on the Lake would permit me to do that? Just kidding friends I don't need another business venture at this stage of my Life.
I took a break from all of this activity once this past week~end to find my daughter had sent me this picture of my sweet little Granddaughter, Johanna.

Such perfect timing for the day, as I work to get rid of all this stuff. A wonderful reminder that our efforts to unload will bring us someday to being closer to where we want to spend the rest of our lives. Playing, enjoying, and spending as mush time as we can with our Grandchildren. That is our New Venture we have decided for us. We may not settle in China, but probably in some hand picked Grandma house with a Big Porch, and a Big Yard on the West Coast. Maybe even in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.......

Have a wonderful day Friends!!

  1. Nancy,
    Oh my goodness, little Johanna is growing SO fast! She is adorable. Just makes me want to be able to hug her throught the computer screen. I assume they're back in China now.
    Wow, that cleaning up for a move is hard work. It makes me tired just thinking about it! Don't overdo it.

  6. Hi Nancy,

    Still love that picture of you! I hope you make a killing at your yard sale. I bet you had some great goodies that I would have had to snap up!

    Keep saving and planning for your New Venture. I will be here before you know it.
