The Story Continues
We've been in our home in the foothills north of Santa Fe, elevation 2,200 meters / 7,200 ft, almost a year now. We closed on the house a year ago tomorrow and took occupancy on 1-April.
We've enjoyed 4 seasons (happens to be snowing today but it melts off almost immediately - took the dogs on a walk during a sunny spell) and are very happy with ( Read more... ) -
The Story of Plans for Moving Forward
We accepted an offer on our house in 2015. The last day of the option period, the buyer backed out. So we took the house off the market and waited. And waited.
We put the house back on the market last summer. We accepted an offer in November and closed in December.

Whether we put it on the market or not is another choice, another *thing* starving and grasping for attention ( Read more... ) -

Checking In
Facebook has assimilated me. Dang. That and I can't access livejournal from work so in the moments when I might do some reflection, I don't have the ability to do it. I think there's a way to post via email ... will have to check that out ( Read more... ) -
Greenbelt 2009
Greenbelt has come on gone. Every year as it approaches, I wonder if I've expected too much of it and having already spent the money on the ticket and flights, go ahead and go. And then I get there and it seems comforting and familiar and a bit like a spiritual home that is good to return to. There are friends to see and programmes to dissect ( Read more... )
