This week saw the end of an era so to speak. My DH closed on the sale of his flat. He bought it 19 years ago, and it served him well. It was conveniently located for him when he was working the odd hours in London on the trading desk. He was able to get transportation back home easily.
I asked how he felt about selling it, if he was sad to see it go. His answer warmed my heart. He said that it doesn't suit us, we aren't for the flat. We are to have a house with a nice garden for Misha and any other Samoyed we will get soon. He told me he was looking forward to the new chapter.
I'm very glad he didn't rush to sell the place when we came back from Holland and we trying to decide what to do with it. By waiting he got a much better price.
So, a little breathing room, wait to see what the housing market is doing with prices, and then searching for our new home!
Started the show season yesterday. Up early, long drive there, even longer one coming home. Why do we do this? Show as well tomorrow. Thankfully this one is closer and doesn't have as early of an ETD.
Well, at least Misha has qualified for Crufts 2008. :)
I've not done a lot of stitching this week. Seems there was more taking out then putting in. I hit a snag and just could not find the error. It seems the pattern is off by one silly little square. I may go back and pull the whole area.
I'm so impatient to get my silks. I will start something else when they come to take the edge off of the project I am working on.
I just need a fast finish so I can get back to stitching on the huge sampler for my nephew and his wife. I really, really do not want to do that one. And I don't know why. It's just hanging over my head and making me feel guilty. Oh well, soonest done, soonest finished!
This week I promise myself I will stitch more! Really, I will. Okay, stop laughing...I mean it. :)
