Good Monday Morning!
So this weekend was productive and wonderful!!!!!!!!!! A weekend Of beginnings and a weekend of goodbyes!
The ladies luncheon was fabulous. It truly was. Picture a warm and breezy late morning under a huge draping Oak laden tree. We were at a little organic cafe.
I was able to get chicken salad on a bed of kale, and some delicious high end coffee. they also have a infused oil shop beside the cafe and I picked up some more Mediterranean herb infused oil. I can go though that by the gallon. I use it for everything.
It was so so nice, though to have a low key conversation and laughter over brunch. One of the gals count make it so it turned out to just be the 4 of us. Very fun- and very cozy.
We are all departing within the next two weeks. We will all be in our respective "home towns".
One gal is going to Nantucket, the other is going to Pittsburg, and the other gal is going to upper Rhode Island. I am going to Savannah.
Did you all catch that last sentence? I found and put down money on an apt.
Yes one has to sign a lease to get an apt. The cool part is where it is located. I will do a separate email- with more info.
Lori- Yup- So all questions answered!!!! What was funny was the one gal here, are pretty close. She called me last night to see how my day went as well. So I told her all about it and I will be leaving here on the 8th.
She said well.......... who all do you know there????????? Not a should I said. Well it was like she dropped the phone. She said "How do you do that?" Just pick up and move not knowing anybody????
She what she doesn't get is I make and take friends with me! So she too will be on my last of people that have made their way to my heart and we will keep in touch! She will be one I will not lose touch with!!!!
The cool part too is that where I am going is 1 hour and 12 minutes from here! So when they all come back I will be waiting!
That being said- I can still come to "my beach" here. It is not too far I can't come for the day. I just need to get up a bit earlier and I could be here by 10am- here for the afternoon and home by dinner. PERFECT!
I'm not really "leaving here" just declaring "home" a bit up the road!
My "home is the entire Southeast United States! I just love southern east coastal cities! They are special
Speaking of traveling! When do you head off to see sis? Wed.? I am super interested in what your golf lessons are going to look like! What a fun week!
I almost choked reading you are still dealing with 30 degree temps!!!!!!! I could not do that! I thought 50 was cold!
TRIG- Yup- LC all the way! That is the ONLY way I can get through this journey. I am a caboholic and can't do moderation. I am not one of those people.
Ya, I am curious too when your next road trip is!!!!
Too bad on those ribeyes! Have you ever though about buying a cow? No I am serious? You have freezer space. Some people even go in on one!
NIC- - updates updates!!!!!!!!!
Blue-- Updates........ How is the book coming along? I think I ask you if you still love your apt?

So I have pretty much littered my stuff across this post.
Short story- I am packing up the coach and heading north an hour fifteen minutes up the road.
See email for details.
It is going to be a BUSY next couple of weeks logistically. I have to get utilities up and going- especially internet/cable as that is my business life line!
Then I have to figure out how to get my "stuff" from the storage locker 5 hours away- to the new home. I have also decided to drastically downsize and get some new things. I have BIG furniture and found out when I shove all that in a small space I get claustrophobic. It is an open concept space and I don't want to clutter it up.
Also I can't bring my washer and dryer- I have a ton to donate. Somebody is going to be happy.
I also want a new light and fluffy room rug for the living area. I am going to ditch the bulky recliner for a sleek comfy padded swivel chair. My neighbor has a pair and I am obsessed with them. They do not take up a lot of space yet they are great. they are not cheap either. The room rug I want is sorta pricey as well. I am wanting to basically - purge and start over.
The exception to that is my bedroom and office and kitchen items. I can't wait to get my kitchen back! But I tell ya I am DONE hauling crap I never use from place to place! -
Gotta run!!!!!!!! Back at ya later!
