To put it mildly, there's been a lot going on around here lately. The end of the school year is always a little nuts - lots of events, grading, weird schedules, and general craziness. This year is no different.
Then add on top of that, add in selling one house and buying another. We were fortunate to receive an offer a couple of weeks ago on our house, and reached mutual acceptance on a house to buy yesterday. And as should be expected, none of that is ever as straightforward as it should be. Right now all we can do is cross our fingers and hope it all works out. ('Cause if it does, it will be great!)
So, in two weeks, school will be out. In four weeks, we will be in Hawaii. In 6 weeks we will be in our new home. All wonderful things. And a whole lot to do in the in between time.
Which made our first Farmer's Market visit of the year even more wonderful this morning. A nice slow pace. Fresh donuts. Potted tomatoes, cucumbers, and a raspberry that we can take to the new house. Asparagus and baby spinach, rhubarb and radishes. Folk music and lots of dogs. And kettle corn for the ride home. I adore the farmer's market. And this one is the one I love the best. Even better? It's 20 minutes closer to our new place. We look forward to many more Saturday mornings there.
It's important to keep enjoying the daily life in the midst of all the "big stuff". I think that is what makes the "big stuff" worth it.

so true. will be a fun summer for you guys. :) which farmer's market is this may i ask? sounds wonderful.
It seems like it is all falling into place -- and before you know it, you'll be settled in at your new place wondering why you stressed so much. Ok, it may not really be that simple, but think positively! :)
We went to the F market this weekend too -- it was splendid!!!
We almost made it there on the bikes that day and would have run into you guys, but we decided to cut it short and not kill ourselves. :) Hopefully we'll do some meeting up there this summer, bike or not.
oh, your description of the market made my heart SING... I just KNOW we'd be grand friends in real life.
Loved this...
