I am still alive !

Well, it has been a whole month since i moved in my new house. So sorry if i did not take the time to come here and let you know i am still living on this planet. I am still in boxes, especially in my studio where most of all my stuff has not been unpacked, but there are most important things to do first. I wish i could show you some pics of my new world, but my computer does not "recognize" my digital camera anymore. My husband is trying to understand and solve the problem, but then, we are so busy with some renovations, this problem will have to wait for a little while. I told him i will need it soon, 'cause i can't put anything new on my etsy shop .
But I don't want to put pressure on him, besides, i have enough on my mind to keep me quite busy 'til christmas. Some clients have given me a phone call, asking me if I will be doing another x-mas show at my place. ( Something i have been doing for a few years ) And i told them i would. I think i am crazy, how am i going to find the time to get everything ready ? But i could not help saying yes, it gives me motivation to create new things. I will be restricted to small quick projects as i have little time left. So in between painting the kitchen walls, helping my hubby making a new bedroom for my daughter, i will be sewing snowmen and other x-mas ideas, not to forget i will have some cooking to do before x-mas, shop for gifts, ect, ect.... Oh gosh, this is such a busy time of year for me and with my moving to a new house, i hardly have time to breathe. I miss my knitting, my granny squares project. But this just a matter of time, i have to be patient. I still feel a bit like an outsider here, i sometimes miss my other home, i loved it so much. ( This is a picture of my barn, where i had my chicken coop ) But i have to be confident i can find happiness here. We have many projects in mind and with time, i can make this new place a cozy and warm home. With christmas coming, i can't wait to start decorating and have my daughters help me with the cooking. I wish my eldest daughter, Geneviève could spend the holidays with us. I wish she would come back home. But i am being selfish here. She loves her student life in Brussels. Oh well, enough of sad feelings, nowadays with the internet and web cams, i consider ourselves very lucky.
I will try and come back here once in a while and maybe show you some picture of my new home.
Til then my dear friends, enjoy your day !

Moving to a new house

My blog is being so awfully neglected and i thought i would drop by and take a short moment to let visitors know i may not be coming as often as i had hoped for. Well, it won't be forever, i plan to give it more time later this fall and i may drop a line here and there in the coming weeks if i can get a free short moment...You see, i just sold my house...YES !!! My husband and I took the decision to move to a new house, even if i still love mine so much. We put a " for sale " sign months ago and had a few visitors, but nothing much was happening lately. I thought i would spend another winter here. But life is always full of surprises...A couple drove by 2 weeks ago, peering at the house. They asked if they could visit and just felt in love. So they made an offer, a very acceptable one and all there is left to do is sign the papers and hand down the keys. We made a conditional offer to another house about a month ago and it is already empty and that is just perfect, as the couple buying our house wish to move before november 1st...Wow !!!
That leaves me little time for packing. I am very excited and a bit sad i must admit. I have so many wonderful memories of my life spend here with my husband and my 3 beautiful girls. I know i will cry when i leave, but i am confident of what the future is offering. And i will have my own studio ! A room to myself ! I can't wait to paint and decorate and make my new place a warm and cozy place to live. So many projects i have in mind... Well, gotta go. I have so much to do... I will try and come back next week. I want to show you my finished kureyon mitts and a hat i have been working on. My knitting is just about the only fun thing i can do when i have a little moment to myself...no time for sewing 'til i get to my new house.
Have a great week end everyone !
