It’s somewhat of a nightmare. They are waiting for the insurance company to give the okay to tear down what’s left of the old house. They are living with my stepfather’s father. Not a lot of room or privacy there. They are looking for an inexpensive camper to possibly live in for the summer. Meanwhile, though, their attitudes are good and they have a lot of support from others.
I finally got a new couch. It’s not the sofa of my dreams , but it is neutral (brown), comfy and paid for! I switched my tv and computer rooms around. So far, we really like the change.
We have a chiminea on the patio outside our kitchen door. My next purchase is going to be a table and chairs for out there. I’ve been planting flowers all over the place. In the summer we spend as much time outside as possible.
