Our new driveway.
Yesterday- June 10th we celebrated being in our home 26 years! When we moved in, there was nothing - not one fence post, not one tree... you can see the LOVE we put into our home - walking around my backyard NOW is like being up at the cottage - everyone who visits - says the same: What an oasis you have created! Birds included - woodpeckers, bluejays & grosbeaks! Yes we did. Blood, sweat, tears & many memories have been created here! Storm moved... (took me 3 months to stop crying) and he's not moving back- he's moving up.. I'm beyond proud of my son in every aspect and am as excited for his continued journey as I am my own - but this house feels too big & too lonely and with too many stairs, so....
Yesterday, Norm & I celebrated big time - by purchasing our next home!!!
I have been actively looking & viewing the past few months (my decision) we had an offer in one place & it was declined - thank God- I said to the agent at the time:
"No worries, God want's me to keep looking..." he seems to 'get me - so that was good.
We went to put an offer in on a place I had liked (time to show Norm) and our agent (I am grateful for) said.. "since you're here why not check this other place out."
Thank God - we did.
We drove up the driveway - I stepped out on the ground (felt at peace) walked into the house & thought "OH my GOSH - I'm here." There were 3 women - there - I did not know the owner but I said: "O.k. - I want to know who my soulmate is?" LOL
I told Storm later: I felt as though God laid that house in front of me - the first being the current occupant - I know she has filled that house with LOVE, prayers & peace the past decade +, there was Buddhas, masks art and wall colors - Norm remarked "We'll we don't have to paint! This is already George." It's true. It's already me.
I woke the day after we put in the offer & I CRIED!!! I knew we got it, before the agent told us. Felt frightened then instantly at peace - I was reminded: Georgia... YOUR prayers have been answered - CELEBRATE! I told you! I promised... I love you! hee hee hee
Think I'm crazy - say it if it makes you feel better but- I'm moving into my DREAM HOME! Prayers have been answered - miracles happen. The woman held my hand - we were chatting & I felt love. I know no other way to describe it & her room - that she prayed in every day (I know) is NOW my painting room - filled with LOVE & light! & birds new home too - weeeeeee!!!! & my new view.. have a peek- MY view is the view I have wanted my entire life! Lions, tigers & bears - Oh My! Moose, deer & bears OH MY! Apparently, I will see them all in my backyard!
Norm & I had also discussed parting ways - if we couldn't find something & soon - I was going with or without him - he was stuck- stuck here & I was already mentally moved. He has asked to join me, after weeks of conversation - 27 years to ponder... the journey continues & I can't deny - we make a very creative team - after all, we created Storm. ;)
I can only imagine what we will add to this new home - we are BOTH beyond excited - I've got to pack!
I keep saying to the girls "Wait till you see what we bought you!!!" lol
Bad news: I had/have to pack my painting supplies- too much going on & too much dust! Too much to do - I am itching to paint nature- now that I know I've got nature to paint! So I'll be taking a break from painting- as if- lol (still have the gouache out) as I am packing & moving BUT - as soon as I am up there- watch OUT!
Thank you God.
Thank you Jesus! Jesus told me.. he jokingly whispered:
Good morning Ranger George!
I called myself this thinking of all the animals on the property - waiting to introduce themselves! & I knew - it was mine! Forest Ranger George, as we NOW own a tiny forest - ready to document & PAINT the wildlife... Moose, deer & bears OH MY!
Tee pee for companee- hee hee hee - Mushroom foray! OH my! Walking MY driveway with the girls every day! FUCK YEAH!!!
Thank you God! Prayers answered! Miracles happen!
I can't stop giggling.
Oh - Guess what I have ! - A BIRD viewing deck!!!
