I have missed everyone.
-Cameron...Greetings all!!<br />I have missed everyone. <br />-Cameron, thanks, we are home! You are not the only one to comment saying they didn't use a word processor. With the blogger preview window I feel a bit better seeing what it looks like before I post.<br />We still have claim forms to submit, power cord to the desktop is still missing. Who knows where it is. <br /><br />-Lona, We have had lots of twists and turns with this move. I am hoping they are all behind us now. Slowly things will settle into place.<br /><br />-Phillip, you are so right! Trying to do it with a plan (one that I will stick to!)<br /><br />-Randy, I think about you with your knowledge of dragonflies and damselflies. We have lots and lots.<br /><br />-Jan, yes, it was a saga...don't want to do it again!<br /><br />-Catherine, I felt so bad about the driver, very sad. We watch the hummingbirds every day. What a show. <br /><br />-Linda, thanks, I have missed chatting with everyone. We are enjoying our boat...very relaxing.<br /><br />-Les, normal is starting to be. Have planted a few more things, will post more about them in the coming days.<br /><br />-Robin, it was really sad about the driver. We appreciate the view -- all chairs at the dinner table face the windows. <br /><br />-Kathleen, I look forward to fall to do a lot more planting. I have put a few things in the ground...the temptation to get a lot of plants is overwhelming.<br /><br />-Kylee, thanks. We are still having internet issues, I worry about getting a post almost done and then losing my connection. <br /><br />-VW, wild for sure! and yes, sad. With this long growing season I look forward to having a lot of gardening time in the fall when it is cooler.<br /><br />-Rose, I am trying to get past the damaged. Keep reminding myself it is just 'stuff'. We pinch ourselves every day, we love this place.<br /><br />-Skeeter, I know it is hard to believe they passed up a boat ride, but they had been out in the water all day....and a bit on the burned side. Now that we have our boat we have been telling the kids to come back.<br /><br />-Shawna, thanks for visiting, and thank you. We love it here.<br /><br />-Daricia, nice to be back! Now that I am here we will have to make plans to meet somewhere in the middle.<br /><br />-Tatyana, I think everyone who moves has a story, some stories more ridiculous than others. We will be getting a new TV too. We love our view...and the population of hummingbirds at the feeders have multipled. Fun to watch them.<br /><br />-Megan, it was especially sad that he was alone. Will be posting more and more every week.<br /><br />-Charlotte, I will have to look into rereading Wind in the Willows for sure.<br /><br />-Ginger, I have thought about your comment about the squirrels. The day you wrote your comment was the first and only day I saw a squirrel. Guess we have enough wooded area around us that the squirrels steer clear of our yard with the dogs. We do have Goldfinches that dumped all the Safflower seed out to the ground. Silly birds.<br /><br />-Betty, Hi, and thanks for visiting. Hope you come back again. I am not sure about the compensation. Hope they were taken care of.<br /><br />-Alan, sorry we didn't get a chance to get together before I left Virginia. Have thought I needed you here to tell me if I have Indigo Buntings or Evening Grosbeaks...they are so fast I can't tell.<br /><br />-Tina, I am glad this is our last move!!! MG class starts tomorrow. <br />:-)<br /><br />-Racquel, thankS!! Will be visiting your blog soon. Hope all is well at your place.<br /><br />-Ray, sorry you had to move me out of the 'neighborhood'.....glad you didn't bump me completely. <br /><br />-Lisa, thanks! Twists and turns indeed! We went up to Anderson the other day, not too far. Have a neighbor that teaches at Clemson...will have to journey that way in the fall.<br /><br />-Grace, thanks, we are getting settled nicely. We have been enjoying the birds a lot!Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-36380797173300158242010-08-15T00:39:16.723-04:002010-08-15T00:39:16.723-04:00HI Janet, I'm glad to see you're getting s...HI Janet, I'm glad to see you're getting settled.

It is so sad about the driver and frustrating about your household goods. I know those days all too well. <br /><br />I was wondering about you possibly trying to get your MG certification transferred to SC. Seems a shame you'd have to take it again and have to complete all those hours and all. Sometimes, depending on the state I think you can transfer if you don't have the time to go back thru it all.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-57448364495857687692010-08-01T10:32:36.983-04:002010-08-01T10:32:36.983-04:00Hi Janet!

Seems rather unfair to have such a thing happen while someone's on the road alone.<br /><br />Glad you've made it safely to your new place, and I hope you're having a wonderful time meeting the neighbors and getting settled in.

But we got a new, better, TV instead of the broken one. I hope you will have a happy ending! Sad about a mover.<br />Janet, the view is absolutely fantastic! Lucky you.

Furniture things can be replaced and hopefully, you had everything insured. Ah, you found the garden tools, so time to get to work and get those beauties into the South Carolina soil. The kids skipped on a boat ride? Now that does not sound normal as kids usually love boat rides. I bet once you get a boat of your own, it will be a different story.

For Bob's BD I told him to go license the boat and trailer. You know how it is - hard to find a good BD present when you just go buy whatever ya need. I figured if he licensed them he'd go fishing and I'd get him out of my hair. Ahhhhhhh a reason to my madness! LOL I wouldn't mind a boatride with the grandsons myself either. Double reason. heheheRainGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071017261791897927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-40722203879554784012010-07-27T16:39:22.541-04:002010-07-27T16:39:22.541-04:00That was quite the ordeal with your mover.
