Since I posted my first on the blog and was getting things 'on the cyber road', life threw a curve ball for us in Nevada. We have to uproot again, can't stay here with no place in the state for my husband to work.
Through the expanded world of the Internet, we found we could go pretty much anywhere in the world for work but it always comes down to uprooting a home and household. So off he went to Arizona to test a position there and I was charged with the assignment of finishing the remodeling projects on the house, packing and storing our possessions, and selling the property.
It took me 6 months! I learned I can do all sorts of construction projects on my own, using tools smoothly and successfully tackling DIY projects. Who knew I would be so adept in the area of construction. When done, I deemed myself a "DIY Diva" (crown included). The house sold in 15 days.
Life started in Arizona with a three month time of transition until we were settled on 5 acre piece of desert and home that need MORE CONSTRUCTION! Well I was ready with my new DIY crown and all the experience I had acquired . Of course the progress is slow when we do it ourselves but we are happy when we finish each stage. Making a new life in a new place is hard work but after 43 years of new beginnings, we are getting the hang of doing it with a sense of ease.
