Moving on.....
Literally.
I am moving on to Santa Fe in about 3 weeks. The holidays have passed and it is a good time to transfer to a Starbucks in Santa Fe, so it is time to gather up the rest of my belongings and head west to my husband and cats. I have more potential buyers coming to see the house this week so hopefully my real estate agent can sell the house soon and we can be D.O.N.E. with the house sale.
It is definitely time to be with Mr. SBQ and the cats and get on with this new life of ours. Besides I'm also missing lots of napping in the Santa Fe sunshine time with this little guy

In between cleaning out the attic and keeping the fancy towels out, I am working on a gift quilt for one of my dearest friends. I had the top made for a long time and decided to get it quilted and finished for a special coworker. The pattern is "Minnesota Hot Dish" by Atkinson Designs and the fabric is a Sandy Gervais Moda line from a long time ago (I don't remember the name). Here is an in-progress photo and I hope to get the quilting and binding finished in the next couple of days.
Mr. SBQ, as you can imagine, is over-the-top happy that I have a moving date. He sends me photos via text to remind me of how beautiful it is in New Mexico. This is from one of his weekend hikes on a mountain overlooking Los Alamos.
I don't think I'll ever get tired of looking at the wide open blue sky.

Sorry to hear that the sale fell through. Seems like real estate can be such a messy business. Maybe another buyer will be along soon :-)
I am happy that you are getting on with your life, Gretchen. And bummed on your behalf by the house thing..
Oh dear, I am so sorry to hear about your house sale falling through. That happened to us a year ago, 3 days before closing the buyer lost his job. Fortunately the house sold again quickly but it was a messy business as well. Hoping yours sells quickly. We are in the process of selling again and are just starting to get some promising showings. Fingers crossed for us both!!
Awww... so sorry about the house. But it's definitely time to move on with your life. REmy, get off the table, Mama's coming home!
Well darn...but I'm so happy that you are moving on...get out there with your hubby and those sweet kitties...life is too short to be apart for so long. The house will sell...I just know it! Take care!
I hope your house sells soon. That's such a lovely quilt and I'm sure your friend will be delighted to receive it.
Sorry to hear about the house sale. Definitely seems like a good time to reunite. I can't believe you've stuck it out being so far apart for so long! I would've cracked a tanty after about a month and had to be with my husband. Best wishes for your transition and I hope you get the house off your plate soon!
