We are all so aware that it was one year ago this weekend, when we’d finally made it to Ellensburg. Holed up at the Hampton Inn, awaiting our ‘stuff’ and the access to our new home. My Loving Spouse had made the 1100 mile trip with a loaded truck, two dogs and towing a car all in 21 hours. The same journey took The Teen and I three days, but of course we were traveling with the Damn Cat.
Good bye to our sweet little house and my beloved garden… hello New Life Old Farm. Wow, what a year it has been! Thank you for joining us on the adventure…you do bless us so!
And to my really old (or rather ‘long term’) dear friends, remember my first short lived blog? The one about dating in mid-life. Mostly about internet dating? It was fairly funny and you encouraged me to keep writing, except then I met My Loving Spouse and so the best part of my material dried up. I didn’t have much to write about anymore and you were glad for me, but sad for you.
I’m sure you really, dear old friends, my faithful fans, my wonderful encouragers are saying to yourself, what will happen to this blog? What if she (which is me) runs out of material? What if I get use to the country, the weather, the animals, the poop and we finish all our work on the house? Then what???
All I can say is….
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
I MISS YOU MY FRIEND!!!! A WHOLE YEAR is a LONGGGGG TIME! Caravan, Starbucks, and Taco Tuesday will never be the same!!!! I know you are where you are supposed to be, and honestly I love hearing about your daily triumphs, mishaps, and life on the farm. My mom and I would like to request more farm animal photos and stories.
We have a Rhode Island graduation to celebrate this spring, and hopefully our next big trip after that will be to the Old Glory Farm.
I must admit, I do miss your “internet dating” blog, but am deeply happy you have found your true love and can share your new life on the farm with all of us…..I highly doubt you will run out of witty, interesting and endearing dialogue to keep us all wanting more…..love to you and Pat and happy 1st year in the beautiful Northwest!
One whole year? Wow, time flies! It always brightens my day when I read your blog!
Thanks Chris! Hope all is GREAT with you!
Happy Anniversary! You have come a long way, in more ways than one, that’s for sure! We have seen your farm, so we know you will have material to write about for a long, long, time! We love reading your blogs, and we love having you guys in Washington!
I can’t believe it’s been a whole year that you turned into a Farm Wife! What a long way you’ve come. And thankfully, I know you will NEVER run out of material as long as you are on the farm!
