Yes, today is our moving day. We are moving into the basement of the Homestead. The week has been relentless, the rain-soaked ground is now covered in snow and hopefully nice and frozen, and it is three days until Christmas. But the wood stove keeps the basement toasty warm, the painting was nearly done when I was there today working into the afternoon, and Adam was getting ready to put in the kitchen sink.
We have a working toilet and shower, which is more than we had when we moved into the house we're in now. And we're just plain ready. We were hoping to spend Christmas in the new house last year, but this constructing a house out of a barn business, well, it just takes longer than you think. So we are determined to spend Christmas there this year. We're excited, and can't wait to share the experience of living there with you in this space. That may be a few weeks, as our only internet access will be in town at the old house, so I apologize for keeping you hanging. Not that I've been faithful to this space yet. I hope to change that with the move. Here's wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season!
I am so excited for all of you. Your life is so different than anything I would want for myself, but I find it fascinating and exciting all the same. Here's hoping you and yours have a wonderful holiday and congratulations on the upcoming adventure! I can't wait for the next update.
