Earlier, I mentioned the new house we were building. Well, it’s all done and our stuff was inside by the first week of November. So that means we’ve been moved in since then, right?
Ummm, no.
See, the full move-in seemed to take nearly as long as the construction. For six weeks or more, as I unpacked more boxes and searched once again for scissors or the cheese grater, I never felt as if we really lived there yet.
But now, just in time for the start of 2017, we’ve found (practically) all our belongings and have gotten (sort of) organized. We’ve even progressed to the point of hanging pictures on the walls.
It’s home, baby!
Here’s a little tour of the premises…

As usual, this transition has been marked by glitches and graces. More on those later.
Meanwhile,
Thanks for reading (and looking!)

About Jan C. Johnson
Welcome! If you like food, reading, laughing over life's little disasters, and maybe thinking about the bigger things of life, you have come to the right place. Besides blogging, I write humorous fiction, though real life tends to leave fictional humor in the shade. But I'm not a total goofball.
No, really. I've also written a most riveting memoir--not mine, which would be boring, but rather the life story of an obscure pastor in Liberia, West Africa. His hair-raising memories of the Liberian Civil War years make for some suspenseful reading! Discover more under the "My Books" tab.
I live in North Texas with my husband, Brent. We enjoy bicycling, Mexican food, and traveling to visit our kids and grandkids.
