Omigoodgollygosh! I thought about you all day today with that polar north wind blowing so hard; I'm so happy it wasn't raining too!

Well, y'all are out of the townhouse at last; bet you've got a mixed bag of feelings swirling around. Your entry's one sentence is exactly right: Baby steps for **everything**!

Hope John is there with you this evening and y'all are warm and cozy. Thank you for posting on such an auspicious day.

(For a kick, check out your Jan 20, 2010 post. Good guidance from yourself to yourself.)

WOW!!

Yes, baby steps is exactly it!!

I have always hated moving, but the unpacking part is ALWAYS the best...creating new in every inch of your new home...

Have fun with it!!

Oh! After taking Musingegret's advice, I too read your post from last year; PERFECT!!

Try to find enjoyment in the freshness, the possibilities that exist in each room, and focus on that single room, focus on creating something new and beautiful...

Again, have FUN with it all!!

ME: That's too funny! That's what actually crossed my mind when I was asking myself "OMG! Where do I start?" A voice in my head immediately answered "You'll take it one little step at a time, just the way you did with the Cantina Garden", but I had no idea that I had posted about that exactly one year ago to the day!

Laurinda: I usually love that part of moving too, but the problem is, this wasn't really a move, at least not for me. We've had two houses for the last six years, so I've already had the fun of decorating this one. Then both of my parents passed a way, so I had to find space here for all the stuff that came from their home, and we ended up a bit OVER-decorated. Now, on top of all that, we need to take all the contents of our Houston home and squeeze them into this one that's already full. It's just a bit much, but we'll figure it out one of these days.
