The interior of the house has been painted - navajo white and brandy cream. The new carpet is down. The granite, "verde butterfly," is exquisite. The pod has arrived and is 1/3 full. And, tomorrow is July . . . a great month for raspberry shakes and birthdays.

The "Steep Deck House"
Have been packing boxes since 6:30 this morning when the trash trucks awakened me and I dashed downstairs to salvage the boxes one son had decided to discard. I didn't trust him to not throw away something that should be kept I guess. I hit the front porch running only to be stopped by my husband, watering flowers, who said, "I already pulled the boxes." (Have we been married a long time or what?) And, sure enough, there sat the $50.00 collectible GI Joes from many Christmases ago. This in mind, I'm sure you can imagine how the "dejunking" segment of the move is going!
And, short note to family - we are not buying the "steep deck house." Sorry guys. Put away the trampoline and the slip and slide. That dang house has two basements for heaven's sake! NO. Because I said so.

Bubble Wrap
It's official. We're moving! My husband has accepted an Endowed Chair at a University in Kentucky and he will be awesome. He is so smart and such a good teacher. I am very excited for him . . . and us. Our amazing but scattered family has been wonderful about it and I can't wait to gather them all together . . . and anchor us all once more in a new spot.
