Of Moving and Moose


This prepping the house for sale fiasco is for the birds.
The current practice is to get rid of anything that
looks personal and then stage it.
Well I’m already tired of feeling like I live on a movie set - 
each thing we touch or mess up
has to be put back in place.
Have y’all seen Escape to the Country?
No staging there.
Happily, our lilacs are out, making the home extra pretty!
 Our neighbourhood excitement this morning was the rogue, 
teenage moose loose in the park beside our house. 
The forestry department is shooting it with tranquilizers for relocation. 
Poor, poor thing he must be terrified.

And a shot of Lucy who always wipes her face on 
the huge wool rug after she's had a treat.
The whiskers look too cute for a scolding.
I must get out Grandma's Rug today. 
I love that it's geometric and easy to stop and start!

CUTE pup! Your grandma's rug looks like and with a real sense of accomplishment with just a few loops. Fill in one square and voila. Those type of rugs, no matter how big, seem to go painlessly. Same thing with the circles in the Great Granddaughter's Rug I'm working on. Happy hooking. Uh, don't envy your staging and always having to be tidy for those 'pop in' realtor client visits.

Good luck with the sale to think of selling our house makes my stomach hurt! We have been here 31 years and moving the stuff alone would kill me!

Good luck with the house sale. I agree with Cathy.
A moose on the loose. That must have been a sight!

Hope your house sells fast. Where are you locating too? Hope the moose was relocated ok. Cute pooch...who could get mad at that face. Janice
