So Long, Cozy Peak

This is the last blog post that I'll write from the office of my current home. Most of my fabric is in boxes, my printer is packed away and my shelves are all dismantled. There's still a fair amount to do throughout the house before the moving truck comes tomorrow. Apparently, I have so much fabric that the movers were overwhelmed and decided to leave some of it to pack today. Or, it could be attributed to the fact that it was hiding on top of the closet. I never realized just how many places I have squirreled away my precious treasures!

I have to admit that I am not going to miss the constant traffic noise at this house, but as a family, we'll miss the convenience of living across the street from a grocery store. The little ones will miss the communal play field and the low-traffic neighborhood streets for their bikes and scooters. I'll also miss being 40 minutes from Red Rock Canyon, but my heart is too heavy to think about hiking at the moment.

The kids are a bit confused about everything, but they are having a great time drawing on boxes. Thank goodness I kept out a big container of crayons! My teenager is trying to study for and take semester finals during all of this upheaval. We have a few busy days ahead, but I do hope to blog again from the hotel. If I don't get a chance, I'll be back sometime next week from our new home!

  1. I know it's always sad to leave but I can hardly wait to see what awaits you on your new place...such a great opportunity for new experiences for your little ones (and the older one as well) that although it's a sad thing saying goodbye I'm eager to read your entries from your new place.

  2. I hope the move goes well and know I'll be thinking of you and your family this week! Can't wait to see your next post (which should mean you're moved in and home safe)
