Belated Christmas visit ...






Not quite certain what happened to my new computer last night, but I've finally (I think) figured out how to get these pics downloaded and posted. We had a great visit with Grammie and Grandaddy on Sunday. Got to open some great gifts ... many of which will bode us well when Silas and I make the big trip to SC/Atlanta. Flying with a four year old, when not prepared, can be a damned nightmare.
We ventured out into our new neighborhood of Mountlake Terrace and discovered that pretty much everything we need is right here ... and I mean EVERYTHING. All I have to say is that I'm glad that I'm not a gambler. "Cause I've got about 5 casinos within a 3 block radius and things could have gotten nasty. Well ... I'm not a gambler at the present moment, at least.
We're beginning to settle in quite nicely. Still have most of our shit to get out of the old house. But, I've moved the dogs up here so they can be settled by the time we are officially "in."
My only complaint is that damned commute. It still perplexes me: The Seattle Driver. I've no clue what is going on with the left lane addiction in people that tend to drive more slowly than the rest. But, it drives me bat shit crazy! There will be a line of, like, 20 cars going 30 MPH in a 40 MPH zone ... all being passed on the right side. It's like they are in Olympic training for the damned Funeral Procession Event. Maddening, I say.
Ahhhhh ... change. Never been a fan.
But, as they say "once one door closes, another opens."
