"Moving Day" is 2 days away

Hi Denise, you know how happy I am for you. A new beginning, new opportunies, amd a new kind of security for you.

We have both gone through total life changes last year, and although those changes were different, both of us now need to find out what our Creator has in store for us. I hope we both see more of the joy that is waiting for us, and that we can contribute to others that might need to see the better side of things.
 

Woohoo! Denise, I'm tickled beyond words that you have a home to call your own again. I bet you're out scouting stuff right now, aren't you? Happy garage "sailing" to you!

Did you have your salmon for supper last night? The three best things about a new place to live: the first meal, the first sleep and the first wake up!

Happy new home:D:D

Edited to add: I meant to ask...will they allow you to have a furry friend?

My plans change from minute to minute Georgia, and I'd like to think of it more a multi tasking thing, but I'm afraid it is a "mind wandering" or "short attention span" LOL! I am getting so much put away in my main, bedroom closet, yeehaw! Also, the kitchen is filling up nicely. All I really need there is a toaster;)

I love my little table and chairs, definitely multi-purpose, thank you Wally World;) Oh and my "long since I unpacked" my knic-knacs. Some I had forgotten and I love so much. Teenie things that mean so much. My small, glass animal collection, my prism my now deceased Uncle Bud gave me, love it:)

Yes, I can have a baby here, although I am getting so many licks and hugs from neighbors, I mean their doggies, LOL, that I may not get one for some time. I want to get a good match, for both the pup, and myself. I favor Maltese/mix, long-haired Chiaua's, and the chia-weenies are adorable. But I will let one pick me out;) love and hugs, thanks for being such a good friend, checkin on me etc. your bud'ette, denise:love_heart:
 
Ok ladies, and gents;) Help me out here. I took a few "before" shots, looks like hell broke loose, but, the bathroom curtain I managed to install, LOL!

Need any of your ideas on color of towels, etc., that would look nice, but not too much more dark, or "male'ish" (is that a word) LOL!
Oh, photos, here they are, remember, these are "befores" LOL;) denise PS 1st is the bbq/patio everyone gathers in Spring Summer 2nd is my 3rd floor patio/shared but few enjoy it so that's where I can do my best star-gazing 3rd is bathroom, duh;) and 4th is what I see from my bed at night, although, this is overcast today, but lastnight I saw the trees with tons of stars overhead:)

With that beautiful shower curtain, I think either blue or gold towels would look nice.
 

Wonderful photos, Denise. IMO if you are near an ocean, there's not much more you need!

I loved my walk today AS!! There is so much more to explore, but I did not venture down to the sand even with those higher waves and the tide in like that. But eventually, I will be able to hit the low-tide times, and it will still be light out, or already in the a.m.'s;)
 
Thanks for all the pics Denise. I think that's a beautiful place. It sounds like the people are friendly too. The trees outside the window made me feel homesick for Oregon.

I know about homesickness Linda:) This, tiny town is close enough to Oregon to be much like parts I grew up in;) so that is a blessing. I've never lived within walking distance of beaches so this is exceptional. It is mostly seniors, from what I can see, meeting them everywhere here. Lots at the beach, as well as grocery shopping;) And of course, here in the complex;)
 
I think you are in heaven! (From looking at those pictures)

Hi Nancy;)

I found a cool thriftstore yesterday with such fair prices. And on Wed. they have half off. Everything was immaculate and cleaned too. I don't like the "junk" stores where they just hang up stuff without even sorting it.

I think I am going to love it, but as I usually remember, wherever I go, there I am, lol. What I mean is, I have to be willing to get out and enjoy life, and I can be an isolator. So I will be working on that as usual. There are lots of things to do though. I am checking online about the pool here. I don't think it's a gym, or in one I should say, so just community type. With Jacuzzi etc. I would also like to do some dancing so either find a Zumba class or dance-lessons;) hugs, denise
 
It sounds like such a nice area Denise. I understand what you mean about being an isolator, although I've never heard it called that before. :) It's easy for me to let myself get holed up in the house or on my property and not leave. That's why I'd like to live in town, I could force myself to go somewhere every day or every other day. I don't think I'm as bad about it now as I used to be. There have been times I never left my place for 2 months at a time and that isn't good.
 
Hi Linda,

I'm not sure if I'm isolating now, or just trying to rest up. I think I mentioned some anxiety about being around people, but I know we've all had our bad-times with relationships. I don't want it to ever spoil my chance of meeting nice folks. There's going to be all kinds of situations, and I'm sure that I've caused my share of anxiety for others as well.

This a.m., I'm thinking like 3 ish, or maybe later, didn't bother to look at my clock on my phone, but there was a crash of thunder louder than I ever heard in my life. I've heard thunder in Hawaii, which was "I thought" the loudest, then also at the base of the Bighorns in WY. But this sounded so loud I actually felt it. It must have been directly overhead. I just laid there wondering when the next was going to hit. It didn't for like an hour, then it was way less powerful. The wind is also still blowing, and more rain today.

We also had a siren go off in the complex yesterday early, but only 8ish. I stepped out to talk to two neighbors that also went outside. We were all wondering "wth" LOL! I asked if that was an evacuation signal for a tsunami but they said no, LOL! Getting used to things around here is fun, sort of, LOL!!
 
LOL, well, it would be a big potato cart wouldn't it;) I loved driving through Oklahoma, and Kansas. Got caught in an "almost" white out blizzard right into Topeka. I remember looking so hard to see the off-ramp, and a sign for a motel 6, LOL! I found it, thank God;)
 
Here in the mountains sometimes the lightning is so close it lights up the street and at almost the same time, the crack and BOOM of thunder occurs, which shakes our homes.

Mountain thunderstorms can be hairy!!

However, we still love to gather up at the bay window and watch and listen!

Mother Nature can be awesome and frightening...and she never lets you forget her power.

sounds nice Pookie, the "we" part:) I just recently started talking with a guy I went to highschool with. I have been alone a long time, and wasn't married for a long period of time. I am changing the subject but since it's my thread, I guess it's ok;) He wants to meet, and is eager to meet someone for ltr, and I am not sure, at all:( Kind of depressed lately, and it was fun talking with him, but when it comes to more, I suppose I am just afraid I am too selfish now to even try with someone.
 
Sounds like a nice place Denise. I hope you enjoy it there and make some good friends too. :eek:

Thanks Chic, I think it will get better, especially when I "make it" more homey by adding some furniture, LOL! Time, it will just takes some time;) This isn't my place, but you can get the idea, lol;)
