The Move



I am well!  I have had two appointments and written twice.  Three months ago I wrote a newsletter and in the two minutes between Mark proofing it and my hitting “send” we got a call saying our house sale was dead.  I did not feel inclined to send my letter, or to re-write it; I was busy being irritated.

My doctor’s appointment in the early summer was good, despite being in the midst of a lot of chaos.  We did a lot of manual labor to prepare our very old home for sale, and the work was good for me.  When the sale ended we decided to rent (our original choice) instead of go back on the market. This seemed to take even more work!  I think I’m in better shape than I’ve been in a long time.  The stress of the summer worried me, and Dr. G has me back on an almost 3 month stretch.  However, all was well last week and they commented on how very healthy I seemed. 

Now we have moved ourselves into new digs slightly north of downtown with lots of walking space and trees, trees, trees.  Mark’s drive time to work is ridiculously similar despite the 1 ½ vs. 6 mile difference. Ah, Baltimore.

We are finally UNpacking for the first time in months—and it feels great.  It is nice to feel settled and in your “own” place, as any kitty will tell you; wherever that may be.   

Love,
Kristina (&Mark)

Do you have space for a particularly large dog by chance? He could play with the kitties. . .:-)
