Work Zone Ahead

By -
In the coming weeks, please expect delays in my posts, as I will be distracted - busy preparing to move. After living in the Wind River Basin for 55 years (25 years in my present house), I am moving to Laramie, WY to be a bit closer to Colorado where my sister and niece live.

I've been searching for an appropriate "senior" apartment complex for several months and toured three sites. I was completely surprised to get a call on Thursday, that an apartment would be available on August 1st. It's located in a lovely area with mature trees, has an attached garage, and is a corner unit. I couldn't be happier: no more snow shoveling or yard work for me.


I've got a lot of things to do in the next two/three weeks, so please don't be surprised if I fall off the radar for a while. I'll try to post random photos when I can.

    I'm excited for you! So nice to be closer to family. Wish I were closer to help. I'm a good box hauler. :) You WILL have your hands full for a few weeks, but adventure lies ahead!

    Wow! That's a long way to move but it _will_ put you closer to family and much better medical facility options, for sure! Another important consideration when we get older.

    Good for you! It looks like a lovely shady home. The idea of no snow shoveling or yardwork is perfect to me. And being closer to family can be a really good thing too.

    That is a big move! I confess, I am a bit jealous. I would love to be moving to a senior complex and not have any more yardwork or snow shoveling AND be closer to family too. A few more years and hopefully it will be us. I will be thinking and praying for you as you make this huge transition. I’m looking forward to seeing pictures of your new place.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    I am SO excited for you. I know you mentioned wanting to move. I didn't think you meant so SOON! LOL

    Good luck with the move. We close on our new place next Tuesday with moving day the Tuesday after.

    Hope we BOTH have nice smooth moves.

    We love to hear from you when you can squeeze in a post. But packing and organizing comes first. Sounds like you've gotten a really nice place esp. being closer to family.

    That is a major change/move. I hope you like your new place and being closer to your family. Laramie has some nice quilt/sew clubs, don't know about knitting. I below the American Sewing Guild there and enjoy it the few times I can make a meeting every year.
