Dreaming

I just can't wait to move into our new home. I've been dreaming (day and night dreaming) about setting everything up, picturing how the furniture would be arranged, the wall decor (need a lot of sprucing up here as we don't have much stuff that would fit with the tall walls, but I'm working on it), the kitchen, the bedrooms, my plants on the deck, where the tomatoes would go, etc.... I just can't wait. Hrishi was lucky to go there again a couple of days ago with one of our friends who is a civil engineer (one of the real smart ones-- he was the lead engineer for the new Dallas stadium) to take another look at the house with his professional eye. He couldn't see anything amiss so that brings extra piece of mind. I told him that I wish I could go there almost every day... but I'll just have to wait the end of May when we close.
I have great visions of this place. I think it's going to be good home for us. A happy place where we can grow together, fill the air up with laughter and singing, a place of peace, of teaching and learning, a welcoming spot for family and friends. How blessed I am and we are. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Lately I've been checking out a lot these websites....can you guess what for?
