Good morning everyone, happy new years eve!

Wooooooow Cynthia, those photos are amazing! Those snowy mountains are beautiful

What a journey! So happy for you and your new home, it sounds like a dream come true...despite the delays. You're a really good writer.

i'm with Debby on the pantry-envy. The kitchen is so pretty, everything looks open (unless you're just a skilled photographer) And that shower looks huge! Is it a shower and bath? Congrats Blooie its gorgeous!

That's cute!

They say COVID can really linger, too. I hope he gets better though!

Good morning Mad...happy moo year!

Lucky no one has hit their head on a tree...that could be a terrible injury.

My biggest fear is that or an Avalanche! We had a local boy years ago that hit a culvert…going too fast and showing off. He was paralyzed. His wife is our Principal.

At 1 in the morning, shoveled...at 8:30. . More! Dogs, my son, daughter in law, and grandson, having fun? It measured 12 inches. The snowblower was having problems getting through it.

Whoa, that's enough snow for a while Cynthia! So nice you have family there to deal with it.

Our lights flickered a couple of times. . With all of that snow on power lines, praying we don't lose power! We have a lot of blankets!

Took a couple of photos on the way the home.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Mine are looking good.

Great, you don't need kidney problems.

That’s what happens when you hit a tree.

Or worse, people have died hitting trees while sledding or skiing. Glad his injury was minor in comparison.

At 1 in the morning, shoveled...at 8:30.

Sure is a big change from the prior pictures!

Old Folks. Sour must be getting senile and thought he was posting in the Old Folks home

Good morning Blooie. Nice house!

Good morning, DMC! House feels like a palace after 25 years in a 50 year old tube!

Good morning Blooie

Good morning, IM!

Poor guy! I hope he feels better soon. For both your sakes

Me too!!! I read further down that you all had Covid over Thanksgiving. I’ll bet you were all absolutely miserable. Go easy for awhile - it can take a long time to fully recover!

Evan has been super sick with a hacking cough that has become extremely painful, both for him and for poor Tam, who has to listen to him but can’t do a thing to help him. He tested negative for Covid, Influenza A, and RSV, so Dr. Caldwell has no clue what’s going on, besides the obvious sinus infection we already knew he had. And they had no heat for two weeks - her furnace went out and one company fumbled around working on it, charging her for it but not getting it fixed, three times. She finally called a different company who showed her exactly what the problem was and why it simply couldn’t be fixed. Her new furnace was installed Thursday morning and she’s broke but deliriously happy!

Your new house looks wonderful Blooie!

I now have pantry envy

Thanks!! I love love love that pantry. Hard to tell from the photo, but it’s still got enough room in it that this weekend we are putting our freezer in there. We knew we wanted to do that, so I ordered an outlet in there during the design phase. It’s just a small chest freezer, but it will be so nice to have ALL of our food in the kitchen instead of having to go out to the hot tub shed to get something out.

My son got home from Wyoming about 20 minutes ago. They headed out at 3:30 yesterday and drove straight through. His friend broke his wrist yesterday so Quinton drove the whole way. A third of the way home the heater in his friends truck puked out. There was enough heat to keep the window unfogged. He was pretty cold. They are home safe though, thank goodness!

Thank goodness indeed! What a trip!!

Blooie, your granddaughter! She's grown!! Looks like she's doing well.

She’s getting so big!! She’s 10 years old already and about 70-75 pounds!

I know I missed some quotes. I’m still trying a memory reboot here and I’m easily confused!! So good morning everybody!!

Can’t recall who asked about the shower, but it’s a huge walk in shower. There’s a seat at one end with a handheld shower head and a rainfall shower head about halfway over from that. When we were planning the house, we planned it with Kendra in mind. One bedroom and the second bath have 36” doors to accommodate her chair. We put in handicap toilets. The only carpeted rooms are the bedrooms…for the entire rest of the house we continued the hard floors throughout. wheelchairs don’t like carpeting.

Sending get well wishes to Evan! And Kendra is 10 now?!

Enjoy that new house Blooie, you waited a long time to get it!

71 and 74 years old is a heck of a time to take on a mortgage, but like I said, suddenly I was panicking at the thought of dying in that old place. it already felt like a dark, dingy tomb.

I bet it does feel like a palace. Very nice!
