Yesterday was a small but significant day in our move-prep days, I took down the remainder of our paintings and pictures from the walls.

Some of the areas, like one of the hallways, is even more desolate-looking afterward, lol! But I forgot to take a “pre” pic 😊

And If a picture can say a thousand words, the “after pics” should include “and the use of a thousand calories” lol!

Here’s another with “some” of the pics still up —

But, we are very much looking forward to placing them back up in our new place late next week ♥️ Including places like Zilker Botanical Garden!

Stay well everyone! Enjoy what one can, relish what one can – it’s worth it!

Often enough anyway 😊

Best of luck Felipe and I wish you and your wife many many years of happiness in your new home 🏠,
    FBC.
