Transition

easyeleganceimage: Atlanta Bartlett

Closing is today… one week later than anticipated thanks to paperwork snafus.  We’ve been in strange limbo, staring at packed boxes lining our hallways and crowding our living space.  We’ll be renting out our current home until the housing market recovers (it will, it will!).  We have a couple weeks to transition our stuff over to the new place, which I’m counting as a major blessing.  I have lists upon lists which I can start crossing off now.  When those have dwindled down a bit, I’ll be back with some before shots of the interior of the fixer farmhouse.  I’m telling you, it’s bad.  But could be worse.  That’s my perspective anyway!  Here we go…

  1. Hope the move goes as smoothly as a move can go :) I can't wait to see pictures of the before and especially the pictures of after. If I lived in your area, I would so want to buy the house you're leaving. Good luck!

  8. We are moving from WA to NY soon, and we are going to rent out our WA house - I am a little stressed about it, so I feel better when I hear that other people are doing it too.
    I can't wait to see what you are going to do to the farmhouse.

  9. Have fun :)
    I know it sounds impossible, but you must try (coming from someone who just went thru this!) Mostly the fun will come from delirious laughs at 2am when you forgot the last time you ate (or showered) :)

    Really looking forward to seeing your new home and all of your amazing touches!! Best...

  11. We're moving this month, too-- our 20th in 30 years of great marriage. After raising funds in the U.S. for 17 months, we'll return to Guam. From there we'll ship our household goods to Manila, Philippines where we'll base in our 11th year as missionaries to the Pacific Islands. Yes, we know all about transition.

    Many blessings to you.

    I just found your link on Simply Vintage Girl. I can relate to the transition, although I probably don't always count it as joy! Delightful encouragement. Thanks for sharing!
