Sure enough, the next week, from a neighbor who moved in in April three YEARS ago, stopped me on the street and said, "Thanks a LOT for bringing US food!" They laughed but have brought it up THREE TIMES this summer, at least. Grrrrr.<br /><br />Wish I could give you a welcome hug :)Mrs4444https://www.blogger.com/profile/06426176094895489541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-68830828451468007272010-07-18T11:51:25.452-04:002010-07-18T11:51:25.452-04:00What an adventure!

Everything will fall into place soon and you will be letting us know the scoops of your new life.<br /><br />Thank you for mentioning cookies from the neighbors. I need to bake or buy some (or cupcakes) and take them next door to the very sweet and quiet young couple who moved into Joan's house. From what I can see they are putting the house together to their liking. So far they seem quiet and I like that. They have a little boy approx age 2 and Becky, the mom, is pregnant with her second. I don't think she is very pregnant, she does not have a belly yet. Ryan, the husband is a pilot for a local puddle jumper airline. So glad you are in the USA and things are coming together. Looking forward to more regular posts from you. xoxoxoIna in Alaskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07163454431322742148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-17225115875334807532010-07-15T19:10:20.705-04:002010-07-15T19:10:20.705-04:00I hope you're going to take pictures of the st...I hope you're going to take pictures of the stuff you've had in storage for two years.

When that big moving truck pulled up with my stuff I was absolutely thrilled. Suddenly all of that furniture that I had been planning to replace because it bored me was oh so beautiful! No wireless for me then, though. I do remember that a neighbor brought an old radio over for us to use.
