Moving Day

Whew! I hope I never have to move our residence or our business again! If there is a next time I will only take what will fit in my car and drive away. We bought this commercial property a little over three years ago and have been remodeling and moving ever since that time. Our business and all of Ron's machinery and tools are on the bottom floor and in the two warehouses. My studio and our living quarters are upstairs which is about 5,000 square feet. We did some work on our house before putting it on the market to sell and moved all the equipment in the 3 car garage and a few essential things that we needed to our loft. We have been living in the loft/warehouse for two years but we left the house furnished. It took 17 months for our house to sell. We close on the house tomorrow at 1:00pm so I'm thrilled! We almost have everything moved from the house. This has been a major undertaking because it was full of stuff we have collected over the 29 years we have been married.

I was going to keep this blog art related but moving and selling our house has really influenced my art work......or should I say hindered? A huge burden has been lifted and this phase of my life is over so I feel a new beginning emerging. I just noticed a bird outside gathering twigs to build a nest in the little holly tree by the front door. It's Spring so it's an excellent time for a new beginning! Praise the Lord!
