If there is one thing we detest , it's moving . Don't get me wrong , we don't mind the packing or unpacking , but the carrying of boxes up and down stairs is not our favorite thing . For that reason alone , we like to settle down for a bit before moving on somewhere new .
Though the prospect is never far from our minds , we are very careful in choosing what we like , weighing the pros and cons . Usually that involves making a list of things we are looking for and then we pray on it .
We take this very seriously . Why not , choosing a place that can serve as our sanctuary from the outside world is serious business . You know how I feel about my little niche !
So what are we looking for ? Well . . . .
I want a small corner somewhere , like a back porch , where I can keep all my crocheting things . Right now , my bedroom doesn't resemble a bedroom at all . I can't even remember the last time it even looked like one . The room is filled with boxes of yarn , boxes of crocheted items ready for shipment , looms etc .
We want a place with laundry facilities on the premises . You wouldn't believe how many apartments in the city don't have one .
A place with a parking spot would be great , but an area with lots of available parking would be appreciated , too .
Something we've always wanted ? A balcony or patio . We could grow potted tomato plants ( which I secretly miss ) . We could spend an evening or morning outside enjoying the view , plus even have a BBQ in a mini smoky joe !
Also , a pantry or breakfast room that can be turned into a storage space .
Oh , one more thing . No more pedestal sinks in the bathroom . A bathroom needs space for accessories !
That's it ! Of course , the price has to be agreeable , too . It would be nice if a Church was within walking distance , but that's another story .
I know eventually it will happen . The time will come for us to leave this place here and it will be hard. WE have many great memories that were shared with the people in our life . I also know , there are many more to be made .
Have a Blessed day everyone .
