New Year's Resolution: BLOG MORE!

Hey, guess what!? We moved! Yep, I finally bought a house, after a year of planning and waiting and vision boarding and agonizing and... you get the drift. So, my blog has suffered a small bit of neglect as we literally were swept away by the process and had only 2 weeks from the acceptance of our offer until closing. Since then we've been working like mad on freshening up the place, and of course, packing up our apartment and moving all the boxes and furniture into the new house - which, BTW, is right across the street from our friends, The Ricketts!

Gllen has already started some fun new habits now that we have a new place. I'm sure you remember me telling you about nicknames that he has given me over the years. Currently, I'm being called "Girf" (sounded out as JERF) or some variation on that theme, like "Girf and Turf" or "Girpy-Girp". Well, now that we are in a much bigger place, with three actual levels, Gllen can't always find me. So, he has taken to wandering about the house and chirping out "Girf!" until he finds me. It's very quiet, to the point where sometimes I don't know if it's him or a tiny bird begging for food.

So, of course, I've taken to chirping out "Birf!" in response until he radars in on me.

More to come soon, as we settle in - I finally have a computer again - (that's another story!) and I'll try to keep everyone up to date on our new adventures.

Also, keep your eye on http://coldwetfire.blogspot.com/ - Mike's blog - where he's hinted at writing some "Living Near Gllen" entries now that we're neighbors. Happy New Year everyone!
