Rick bought a house!

10/23/06
This is too crazy!
I leave for my delayed visit to Michigan and the very first morning there Rick finds "THE House" in California for us! After a YEAR of us looking every week, hours on the internet, and hundreds of homes!!!
Crazier yet: He BOUGHT it! I have only seen it online! It's very exciting! We will no longer be in Carlsbad, but move inland one city to Vista, California. We'll have an acre of land on the hillside, a single story home with a wonderful pool with hot tub & waterfall, BBQ grill and bar, a distant ocean view, and a big mortgage!!! It's definately set up for entertaining! We'll be about 12 miles from the ocean instead of 2, and it will be a lot hotter and arid inland. We're ready for the new adventure!


I think we'll get tired of writing out this new street name: "Canciones del Cielo".

Canciones del Cielo means "Songs of the Sky" or "Songs of the Heavens".
Meanwhile, I'm doing all I can to visit as many people as possible while I'm here....It's been fun. Lots of coffee, lunches, dinners, and then wine in the evening. I miss all of you! . . . But it has rained EVERY day!
Adding a lot to that fun is that I'm here in Michigan the entire 7 games of the World Series!!! What a blast!!!
GO TIGERS!!!!!

UPDATE NOVEMBER 1ST, 2006
Yesterday Rick took me for my first actual look at our new house !! It's beautiful! The pool is gorgeous as was expected. Now Rick can relax just a bit as we start signing all the paperwork. All this excitement filled in for the lack of excitement from the Detroit Tigers!
We should be moving in around Christmas! Julian will be here to help then too.
Meanwhile, I'm still going for physical therapy for my left arm/elbow twice a week, and most of my vertigo issues are gone, although not completely. I'm expecting Christmas/New Year's to be my full recovery dates. We'll see! http://www.dizziness-and-balance.com/disorders/bppv/bppv.html WEAR YOUR BIKE HELMET -- ALWAYS!! Even with mine on, I'm having these problems 3 months later. (Oh and by the way, medical costs have now exceeded $52,000!).

Notice our neighborhood/subdivision name? Auburn Hills! Maybe we should nickname our house "The Palace of Auburn Hills!"
