MOVED!!!

Sorry I have been so quiet, not posting, but, we have MOVED!!!

Life was quite crazy for a while, not only was I stuck on bed rest from a messed up back, but we were hunting for a place to live, packing, and then moving!

The change, though stressful, has been a wonderful one!!! I am now living in a home that is almost totally handicapped accessible!!! I can come and go as I please, get to EVERY room in it, do my own laundry again!! The sheer joy that I have over the simple laundry is amazing!!!

And best of all, I CAN COME AND GO FROM MY HOUSE AS I PLEASE!!!

Now that may seem like nothing much to most folks, but to someone who is wheel chair bound and has stairs at their doorways, it is something truly HUGE!

Hubby and I go for *strolls* now in our power chairs! We go sometimes several times a day. It is so wonderful!!! And best of all, the neighbors here are friendly!!! We spent five years at the old place, we were here only a few days and met the neighbors and now speak, laugh and joke with them almost daily!!

One neighbor has two kids, little boy and little girl, I think they are like 7 and 4. Very cute kids, pretty well behaved.

Our other close neighbors are a young man with parkinsons :(, and his caretaker. Both are very nice, and they have two chihuahuas! I love chihuahuas! I get to visit them too lol . The caretakers loves plants and so we chatter a lot about them. Right now we are watering his for him while he and his, hmm, friend? I think that would be a good term, since he and the man he cares for seem to get along great. Well he and his friend are camping with family.

I have finally done a little knitting too!! I finished the cylinder pillow case I was working on. It came out bigger than I planned, but no worries, since hubby decided he didnt want a pillow in his chair anyway LOL. I will have to put up a pick once I make the pillow to go in it.

Hard to do much crafting since most of my craft things are still in boxes! :(
