Sure it has been a few days since the get together - which was awesome - We spent the bulk of the morning in the kitchen... and we had plenty of room for all. It was nice to visit, cook, have some champagne, see the spouses and the brothers with the local sisters and such. There was plenty for everyone - it was a very relaxed time.. a time for memories, dreams of the future, letting go and living. I think the event brought home the purpose for moving to our new "home".
We had our first big snow yesterday - 6 or 7 inches of the white stuff. The pine and fir trees look awesome -but, I'm ready for it all to go away - there's stuff to do outside yet and more golf to play.
This morning I'm sitting in the study listening to some very relaxing music. This is a warm room and a very soft and relaxing atmosphere - maybe I'll fall asleep for a bit. Carolyn, as usual, is already out and about. I'm deciding whether to go to craft night or not. It was okay last week, but not sure it is for me - just not sure. for a bit, I thought I had the urge to paint again - it was, I think, a brief urge.
Life is about enjoying your moments - doing those things that bring one pleasure, enthusiasm, joy, happiness - I look across the room and notice something awry with the lamp on the piano -- needs fixing and being in the moment of discovery that is just what I'm going to do - some fixing! Later.

Sister's Day (Martinez Clan)
Carolyn is hosting sister's lunch today. We made it a sister/significant other brunch - complete with Mamosas and Bloody Mary's. We've pushed ourselves the past few days to get our new home more like "our home"... it is fabulous, comfortable, simple -- furnished a lot quicker than I thought it would be - and for a lot less than I thought it would be.
We've had the kitchen counter lowered, the garage insulated, dry walled, and painted. Its awesome. Life is good and the world is treating as very well. We helped Kindle move yesterday - what a gal. Drew must know how fortunate he is to have her.
Megan seems to be doing real well also.... talked to her on the phone a bit - I gotta go do some work at old house.
Life is so full of new moments with so many new experiences.... ain't it great!!!!!!
