The issue of the dogs has been put on the back burner for a while. It's one of those "we'll jump off that bridge when we come to it" things. There's a process to follow and we must first sell the house before we can even think of leaving. And to sell the house - we must finish the landscaping.
We've finally got grass after a year and a half and the plants are slowly being purchased and planted. It seems that every weekend we are free from now until xmas will be dedicated to completing the yard with a goal of being finished before xmas and placing the house on the market in the new year. So far, the more we do, the more we love it. Rolling around on the grass outside with the dogs is a novelty that we are well enjoying. I do want to go to China but if I could just take the house and the dogs......
We have to keep reminding ourselves that as great as the house is looking we were always planning on selling it. The neighbourhood is far more suited to families and we certainly are not. But the more effort we put in to the yard, the more we are enjoying living there. I guess our next house will have to be pretty fantastic - with a few acres, just so we don't miss this one.
