Once we got all of our things over to the house, we had to bring our animals. We had our dog, Brian's parents' dog (they were on vacation), and our cat, Maggie. Maggie hadn't been in a car much, so she was pretty freaked out the whole way, but we got her here safe, and without too many scratches.
It's been quite a change, and it required a lot of work. The house that we moved into wasn't finished. It is the oldest home in this area (first in the settlement), and not much has changed since then. We had to literally gut the place and start over in most of the rooms. We have enjoyed the work, but we're starting to wish we could just settle down. Thankfully, we only have trim left to do, so that won't be long. We will be adding before and after photos (we didn't get all of the before pictures, but we've got some) soon.
I'm loving living in the country again (we lived in the "country" at our last apartment, but it wasn't country to us. They don't have apartments in the real country. I wake up with the rooster every day (he's crowing right now), and I no longer sit at a desk. Oh, I forgot to mention that I left my job! Wahoo! I loved my job, don't get me wrong, but over the last 2 1/2 years, I discovered I don't do so well with the daily grind. I've decided to give farming a try.
