OUR NEW HOUSE HAS BEEN DECORATED

We are finally settled in our new home and it is even more wonderful than we had hoped. The move went very smoothly and we set a new record (for us) of 24 hours from the last item delivered to all boxes flattened. The move was made even smoother by the assistance of Zoe’s son, Russell, who came down earlier and moved most of the boxes over , installed grab bars and towel racks and did all of the heavy lifting.
Zoe did a great job of coordinating the workmen who were scheduled and my job was doing the change of address notifications. We had the microwave/convection oven from our rv installed in the house. I really love that unit. A new dishwasher, kitchen sink and faucet, and a beautiful granite counter were installed in the kitchen. The large patio was tiled as well as the atrium in the house.
Zoe’s daughter, Susan, came down and did a wonderful job of decorating the place. She was like a whirlwind. When she said we should paint one wall in the living room red, we had some doubts but she does this for a living so we trusted her judgment. It has turned out a very dramatic room. The deep red is offset by latte color on the other three walls. It accents the cream couch and complements the black in our furniture. A new area rug was added to the mix.
Then she moved on to paint one wall in our bedroom a blue-green (Foam) and the other three walls the latte color. The latte color also graces the hall between the bedroom and the office (second bedroom). Planting a lemon tree with ground cover in the patio was next. No rest for her, she gathered the material and built a waterfall in the atrium with surrounding plants. It made us tired just watching her and what a gorgeous result we got from it all. Now we can hopefully sit back and enjoy it.
Susan was also here to assist Zoe when she had her eyelids operated on. Her eyelids had begun to droop so low they were interfering with her eyesight. So now Zoe has a photo of her black-and-blue eyes to put in the safety deposit box. Ha. Ha.
