House Pictures

Another kitchen shot gives you a peak through the sliding glass door to the deck. Wish it would cool off so we could enjoy it more.

Priority was to get the bedroom and clothes moved in. The yellow tape in the closet door is to remind Ken there is a shelf in the closet and not to hit his head. We are going to put curtains up instead of closet doors to save space.

Supervisor making sure carpet is trimmed and laid correctly.

Next posting we will include pictures of the outside of the house and the flower beds that are being reconfigured by the master gardners. There is already talk of peach and pear trees next year. Ken and I are starting to sleep better. All the silence was too loud for us, so we have to run a fan in the bedroom to make up for the noisy neighborhood we are leaving behind. One of the neighbors stopped me today to say she was very sad to see us leave. Having a squad car in the neighborhood just made her feel safer. Will miss most of the neighbors, but there is a select noisy family that won't be missed.

Other updates - - My sister, Lisa, looked at an apartment yesterday. Now the paperwork and red tape begins. After a massive stroke 3 years ago, I never imagined she would live independently again. It was always our hope and goal for her and that is why we all worked so hard to encourage her to keep working hard. Will keep you all posted on the progress.
