Sunday...Mornin'... comin' down....

Yes...
I woke up.... Sunday Morn...
with no way to...hold my head... that didn't...hurt...
{it's been a long... several days...}
: )
Liz... walked... into my room....
Early...
around... 7....
{that's...early...for this old Girl... on a Sunday Morn....}
wondering... why...I wasn't up...and runnin'...
She...crawled...into bed...with me...
{Coat...Boots...and all...we talked...for half an hour...or better... : )
then, said... she wished...Nick...was built... more like me...
when it comes to...Snugglin'... : )
Ain't Nothing'...like Snugglin'... with Mama...: )}
so... true...
I...remember...snugglin'...with my Folks...
I don't care...how old...you are...
All was right...with the World....
She hadn't slept...much...
They are moving...into a New... House...
New...to them...
It's...wonderful...
Exactly...what they need...
I hadn't seen it... yet...
The renters... just moved out....
The Kids... are so.... excited...
They have lived in Liz's... little house...
a...Cottage... really...
Meant...for one... person...
she bought... when she was 19...
440 square feet.... on a Beautiful...Corner lot...
it...was perfect...for her...and Maggie....
{her beloved Hound... who died...after a surgery...}
Now... there are...two... Beloved...Big Hounds... Liz...Nick...and Miss. Scarlett....
The Little House....
is...simply...too... little...
{she, already... has it rented... to a Lovely...Retired...Lady...and her...little... beloved... hound...: ) }
: )
Liz worked all year...trying to get this House...
with The Hand...of God...
{and....our...Beloved...Bank...}
they...made it...happen...
: )
Today...was Moving Day...
We took the Fuso... the Ford... and Van...
and...
Moved...
After we...unloaded... I brought Miss. Scarlett home...with me...
so the Kids... could keep haulin'....
I thought...I could work here... with.... the Princess...
not so much....
we spent the afternoon....
watching Sponge Bob....: )
in Gamma's Bed...
Snugglin'....
I asked her... if she'd like to watch t.v. downstairs...with Grandpa...
when we got Home...
"No... Gamma's Bed..."
what could I say...
I'll get 'er done...tomorrow...
after all... tomorrow...is....
Another Day...
These Moments....
will, too soon... be long...gone...
and...they don't...come back...
I was a bit... Melancholy... myself...
with this... move...
It's... perfect...
yet...
it's... another...page...
turning...
It felt... good...to 'snuggle'.... today...
Think... we all... needed it... : )
Love to ya....

I couldn't get an image...of the front...
The Fuso... was backed up...tight to the door...
but...the front yard... is Amazing...
Huge... Evergreen Trees...
all fenced in.... so..Kids...and Hounds...will be safe...
It's Rural...
 it seems so strange...
it's near... very near... where John.grew up...
and...I lived...too.... when I first...moved away... from home...
oh...my....
We both... went by this... Many Times...
never thinking... our Kids...would, one day... be...living here....
Grandpa...
and Miss. Scarlett...
: )
She Loves..the Hammock...in the back yard...
I pushed her...for a half hour...myself...
she didn't want to leave it...
We sang...
'Rock a Bye...Baby..'
as she gazed into the old trees....
and... swayed....
all bundled up...in her Winter coat....
I had to bribe her...with coming Home...with me...to get her out of it....
yes...
this will be... a Lovely Home... for the Kids...: )
 
This is the addition... on the House...
Bennie... and Miss. Scarlett... don't quite know...what to think...
{The addition...is nearly as big...as the House...they moved from...
Liz and I noticed...Bennie... wasn't comfortable there...
he was ready...to 'go home'...all day... and wanted to jump in the Van.....
every time...we moved towards it...
I...think...once he knows...his...'Family'... is going to always be there... he'll be fine...
He's a rescued...Shelter......Hound... and they... always fear... being left...behind...
Miss. Scarlett...
She sees this... as The Big...House....
and...the Little one... as...
'Home'...
Nick... sprawled out...on the floor...and said...
"Oh My... I'm not touching Walls!"...
Yeah...
he made the transfer...
well....
: )
Love...to ya...
