Latest Update!

-

The telephone poles for power were installed yesterday and the wiring for the power should be installed by the end of the week! Fingers crossed as our contractor will be thrilled to have power so they no longer have to use propane and generator and battery-operated tools! I’ll be thrilled too! I plan to spend my first night in our new home once the roof and windows are done! I have a little portable, electric space heater I can use to stay warm enough! By the time the roof and windows are installed, we definitely will have power for this! I’ll just use my air mattress and super insulated sleeping bag, and bring my pillow that I use at my son’s house when I stay over there! Cannot wait to wake up to that beautiful view! I can also bring my little, portable Keurig and coffee supplies, including water, to make coffee in the morning! If the deck and farmers porch are done, it will be even more of a thrill because I will be able to enjoy my coffee there! That would be awesome! Dream come true! 

Anyway, here are the latest photos that my son just took! I wish he had taken more while he was there but I’ll see it all this weekend when I go up! 

Looks like the foliage is at peak! Beautiful! 


Trench to run power underground from telephone pole near the street to the house!

    Hello, I am so sorry I've missed this and your previous blog. I am horribly sick with what I believe to be covid. Both Gloria and Savannah had it and it's still lingering for them. -Lasts weeks apparently. Very tiring and horrific headaches. I am so glad things continue to progress for y'all. Everything looks amazing!

    I so hope you feel better soon! I can’t wait until your laryngitis subsides! Miss hearing your voice and talking on the phone! Love you! ❤️💕

Catching Up: Wildlife

We have a couple of game cameras down at the bottom of the field. We totally enjoyed the wildlife that these cameras captured!  This cutie has been around since the fall after we cleared the field out back and got the grass growing! We call her Nibbles, as she loves nibbling on the grass!  I can always tell it’s Nibbles when I see the dark spot on her inner right rear leg!  We had so many deer during the winter rut season!  Meet Gaylord Faulker! The coolest buck around! After he shed his large antler at the end of the rut, Hubby found it! So cool! When you find sheds in the woods you don’t know the deer they came from. First time we actually know the deer that it came from! How cool is that.  Here’s his antler! If we could find his short antler, the package would be complete! Once the snow melts, I’ll be out there searching for it! It’s a tough one to find, though!  This was when he shed his large antler! The before and after photos!  Another before an...

Latest Photos!

My son and his family went by our house in New Hampshire and we FaceTimed so we could see the house!  We weren’t able to get up to New Hampshire this weekend as we have been busy packing here to prepare for our move. My daughter-in-law also took some photos and a video and sent them to us. Here they are!  The glass doors have been installed in the bathroom shower units! Here’s the upstairs bathroom!  Here’s the downstairs bathroom!  They made a little more progress with the great room ceiling! They have to cut and treat the boards before they hang them. I believe this past week our contractor focused more on board prep. Once dry after treating them, installing them will be pretty quick!  Looks like the ceiling in the larger of the two downstairs bedrooms is done! I think this completes this bedroom as far as hanging tongue and groove pine wallboards! They will eventually add trim at the joints and around the window and will hang the closet and entry doors! ...

Weekend Visit!

I went up to New Hampshire this weekend and took multiple photos! Great progress is being made with the house so it is ready for us to move into early June! In about one month we will be moving in! I just can’t believe it! It’s just too good to be true! Our dream of a log cabin is coming true! Having a mountain view, property on a mountain river and 12.55 acres is also a dream! But the best dream come true is living 1.5 miles up the road from my son, daughter-in-law, grandson and granddaughter! I will believe it on move in day! LOL! Oh, and another thing is that I get to keep my dream job too! While living here in eastern Connecticut, I have worked from home for a company in Rhode Island since August 2016, and I love my job! It was just approved on Thursday morning! Another dream is coming true! I know God has been helping me throughout all of this!  OK, time for photos!  This is my weathervane at my home in Connecticut:  As of yesterday afternoon, it is now behind my hom...
