Movin' On Up
7 Bank Boxes
3 Plastic Bins
2 Priority Shipping boxes
1 Random Box of Fiber
A few nights ago, I packed the stash. (Do you remember when I promised myself I would never outgrow 2 plastic bins? Me neither.)
Why put them into boxes you ask? Well (the big news I alluded to awhile ago), we are in contract on a house! We put in the offer early last week and they accepted without a counter. Phew! The inspections look good. So barring any loan issues, we are moving! I'm nervous and scared and a little overwhelmed by the work that needs to be done to get out of our current apartment. We're also moving to a new town which adds a whole other level of me figuring out things like where the best grocery store is.
But mostly I'm excited. We've saved a long time for this. The house gives us a yard and about 2 and a half times the square footage of our current place. And roots to a the community my husband grew up in. Yup. We're moving to Napa.

My sincerest congratulations. When you said a baby wasn't your news, I figured it would be a house. Now you can have a real herb garden.
I am not familiar with CA at all, but that house is lovely. Good luck!
Look how pretty that house is! And that lush yard is to dye for!

Congratulations! My parents live in Lower Lake and my sister is in Santa Rosa. It's beautiful around there.
When we bought our house we went from 800 sq ft to 2300 sq ft. Your going to be amazed how empty your new place is going to look.
Best of luck with the move! The new house looks just beautiful.
Yay! Congratulations! And what a gorgeous area to be moving to!
Congratulations! That is a beautiful house! Plenty of room for more stash... ;)

Congrats, Nell! And I have to admit that if I boxed all my yarn and fiber stash, I think I could easily double what is shown in your pic! (Shhhhh! Don't tell!!! I'm so late in posting, I figure not many people will read this and know! ;) )
