Just a quick update mid-move. It's going fairly well. Lots to do at the family homestead and lots to do at the new digs. For your enjoyment, here's a view of my view at the new home (temporarily) of Country Contemporary:
It's a view to the south from the house...rolling hills, fenced paddocks...a landscape that I truly love.
It's a bit ironic, I think, that I've been moving from a contemporary (well, mid-century modern) home in the city to a contemporary home in the country, literally. It really wasn't my thinking when I named the blog, which was more an attempt to characterize my sense that I was, in fact, a "city-gone-country-gone-back-to-the-city" girl. But, Fate has a funny way of laughing at you, or at least bringing you back where you belong, so I'm not resisting it in any way.
Soon, the trees and shrubs will be budding with blooms. I'm looking forward to that and to the warmer temperatures that teased us into thinking they were here to stay a week or so ago. They'll be back by the end of the week, which is a huge relief, and the birds are telling us it's time!
Speaking of Spring, and birds and sweet things of the season, Mary over at the Litte Red House blog is having the perfect little giveaway to celebrate her 700 followers. We 10 here at Country Contemporary are probably her followers, too, but just in case you haven't been there, or haven't been there lately, check out her offer which continues until March 31. Hey, you never know!
That's a beautiful view, Leslie! I hope the move is going well, and not stressing you out too much! Do we get to see house pics too? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sharon. Yes, I will post some house shots soon. I've got a few, but have just been crazed trying to get things taken care of at the city house. Contractor friends have been here for the past two days with one to go, then I can start painting walls that haven't been touched in years. It will be a treat to see them become crisp and clean, but a bit sad to have to leave them behind and not live here to enjoy them. Oh well, we march on to new walls in the future...!
