A long time coming

I know that a post has been a long time coming - but I have been waiting for some details before I posted anything in particular.

We have been very busy with moving - however, we have not moved to CT. We are in OH.

After a long soulful search, we decided that we really wanted to stay in the Midwest so that we could be near our family members - especially ones that are experiencing health issues. So, Bob decided to give his notice to Pfizer - and we also discussed things with our realtor out in CT. It was a very difficult decision, but it was the best decision for us, right now. We have been able to help with family members and be useful. That is a good feeling.

After we made our decision, Bob was given a job offer with a company in the Cleveland area. So, we set out to find a neighborhood and house that we could live in. So, we found a nice community in the south/southwest side of Cleveland. Our house is 35 years old, but is in a great subdivision with sidewalks, a community lake and park. We have been getting to know the neighbors and everyone seems really nice. We are going to slowly renovate the house. I will try to take pictures of some of the more "dated" and "decorated" rooms and you will see why we want to renovate.

We were very sad to leave Chelsea, our friends and our family, but Cleveland is only 2.5 hours away rather than 12. So, if you are in the mood for a road trip, just give us a call. We have a guest room waiting.

I for one, am glad you made the decision to go to Ohio! (The grandbabies have a whole lot to do with my feeling about that.) Can't wait to get down there to see your new home.
