PattyJo Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Well, I'm moving out of my too big home for one person house, and into a smaller home and getting downsized in the process. I have my 2 boys coming to help me this weekend. I pick one of them up tomorrow and he's flying in from Maryland, and the other will be joining us on Saturday. Lot's to do, I sign the final papers on Friday and will hopefully moving on the 25th. Lots to do to get packed and lots to take for donations at the Union Gospel Mission thrift store. I'll still be in Salem but a little closer to I-5 so for those who are driving through town, be sure and call and we could at least meet for a cup of coffee. Just wanted to let you all know of the new step I'm taking in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LA Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I am sure it's a mixed bag of emotions Pat, we all have different "chapters" in life, enjoy the next one! I look forward to seeing your new place, closer to I-5 is closer to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Oh Yes, my new home has room for my Millie - just not quite as much and I'll have to be better at storing things in a smaller space!! I wouldn't even look at a home until I knew there was at least one room I could put my GiGi in. I may need a ladder to get to my totes ~~ there is a vaulted ceiling in the quilt room, so I can go UP!! It's going to be a bit before I can take in quilts, but the Lord will work all of that out I'm sure. Thanks for all the well wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Pat, I'll pray it all goes smoothly and what I'm sure will be an emotional time for you you will feel your Bill wrap his angel wings around you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Linda S Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Oh, I'll bet you will miss that wonderful quilt studio, but I know what you mean about rambling around in a space that's too big. I'm sure your new home will be comfy and cozy. Best wishes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinneaMarie Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Good luck and prayers for a safe, happy move!! It's kind of a torment, I know! Exciting and sad at the same time. But you'll be over the sad real quick as you set up your new studio, and get to do it just the way you want it!!! Love ya girl!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Patty Jo good luck on your move. I made the move to KC 11 years ago and now am ready to move into a smaller place. I wounder what i was thinking when i bought a house with 5 bedrooms for just me. Not the brightest thing I have ever done. Can wait to down size.

PattyJo Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 One of the best things about this house is it only has 2 bathrooms rather than 3. Toilet scrubbing isn't my calling!!! LOL:D:P:D Meeting with the Floor covering guy there this afternoon to measure. I'm making it mine before I move in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagecl Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Congratulations on your new place. I am with you on toilet scrubbing...not my favorite thing to do, but I'd rather scrub toilets than dust:P:P:P More places for dust to land!

Primitive1 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Oh yeah, less cleaning to do ---- more time for quilting!!! I'll be thinking of you as you go through all of the packing and moving and setting up a new home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LA Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 You obviously do not live in a household of *all men* Cheryl!! Toilet scrubbing often requires much more than the bowl if you know what I mean,,, I save that for my gal every week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
