Oh I love the view! I hate moving but after I am all settled into a new space it is wonderful.
Glad you are back, you have been missed!
wow very nice place and nice view too!
good choice of home kim!
look at the view I love it!
I love to have such view at home. But you know the development will over take such beautiful place. I do not like that. :(
last time near my home there is a big green field but not any more as development of apartments take over! It is so sad!
thanks Judith :)
I'm glad the worst is over and I have missed you all :)
thanks for your cheery comment :)
thanks and ..ahh.. yes TH
very true there is no stopping the building developments...
thanks for calling by with your great comments and messages while I was moving too ...it's terrific to be back online :))
Kim - what a wonderful view! Hope you will be very happy there.
welcome backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
hughug
What an amazing view and quite exotic to a Norwegian you know :-)
Wishing you a great end to your week!
yeah development is not stopping. We need the nature and tress! We need fresh air too.
Good to see you back! :)
be honest with you the development will only caused more bad traffic! It is so jam up here and later maybe worst...
I am not saying that development is no good but I think is better to make it just average and not OVER.
I hope to visit my grandpa in Australia some day. He is so far away from us.
Gorgeous...darling!
Thanks for offering to feature me in your top artists blog! I'll send you what you need this weekend. :)
OHhhhhhhhhh Kim, its goregeous. Love the view so much. It is so soothing and made me feel so good this morning. forgot it how beautiful Oz is! I just love it. Its an all roudn view. You must be so chilled and happy there. I just love your decor and the living room. We have the same taste. Its stunning! Anxiuos to see more. You know just seeing the inside and the view..it makes me feel closer to you! Wishing you a great weekend! TGIF! xoxo from frosty, snowy Ottawa!
your new place is so so so so so nice
Kim.......welcome back. Your new place has a fantastic view, look at that water..wow, it's so close you lucky girl, how I envy that. Don't you just love new places, the freshness of it......LOL. Do you paint from home?? will you have a studio there??
The new place is fantastic! I was missing you - glad you are back! :)
If you are in need of cooling down, visit over my way - we are one giant freezer and buried too!
I think the new place looks great!! ... so, how many boxes did it take to move??
I guess 100
The sky has not been blue here for days - winter blah blah blah. Thanks for the visual warm up :-)
Looks as if everything has fallen into place for you, Kim. Not that it was by accident--moving is tons of work.
I wish you much happiness there. A view of the sea should help keep your creative juices flowing! :)
Oh my Kim it is just incredible! Wow what a view! Well if that doesn't inspire you and all of us nothing will.
your living room is grand as well. Oh you lucky girl. I am so very very happy for you.
I bet you are glad to be settled. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful new home with us!
Hugs and buckets of love,
Jackie:-)
Kim the view is GORGEOUS...I'm hooked on living near the water...it's a must...it looks absolutely lovely and I wish you and the family all the best in your new home...again, your presence has been missed....big hugs....:))))
Wow! new house in the new year! thats very exciting! I love sea-views! Hope you settle down soon. Moving house and setting-up all over again is really stressful!! I know for I moved 20 over times in my life!!! Take care!
Hello Kim,
You have a wonderful place and it has been arranged splendidly. I'm happy to see that your new home is in-step with your artistic inclinations and refreshing lifestyle. Congratulations.
I am still living amidst boxes and crates since I haven't found a place yet.
By the way, I received a notice from the Post Office of a package which I'm sure id the portrait of Daphne. I haven't gone there yet as I need to prepare acceptable IDs with just my nickname on it. Or I will bring some magazines where my full name and nickname appear on the same caption. It's nothing difficult, I just have to look at the boxes packed along the hallway of my home. :-)
I'm excited about getting it and taking it to Daphne this week. Thanks again and for all the trouble of shipping it. :-) --Durano, done!
I'm glad you have gotten your head above water. That is lovely, I am so envious it looks too lovely to bear.
thanks Anita :)
as you well know moving is a challenge but it certainly helps to minimise the clutter each time ;)...so that makes me happy ;)
thanks for calling by :)

hugs to you :))
thanks Renny...

Welcome back dear one. The new place looks awesome. Love your views! (Hugs)Indigo
What a lovely view you have, makes me very envious. Before I retired I was living in Florida on the coast north of Tampa. After retirement we moved by home to Mississippi (the kids were all here, you know the grandparent thing). I do miss the ocean and the fishing. Exactly where are you? We are in a small town about 40,000 pop., Brookhaven. Its about 60 due east of Natchez. The word Natchez comes from an old indian tribe who once lived their. They were all killed out after they massacred the french settlers living at Fort Rosilie--a very early settlement there.
I'll a retired history teacher and my wife and I along with our lovely dog Professor (an old Shih-tsu) now spend our days living quitely in this old sleepy town.
Whats with all the blue roofs---they go good with the blue sea in the background. Sure you will enjoy your new home.
My blog, if you can call it that was originally set up as a commerical site, but then I added a blog to it---I love politics and found it to be a good outlet for my opinions and values. I've begun another one--its still under construction, I do however have some photos of myself, wife and oh yes, Professor on it. Most were taken at our cabin in the country. We have 10 acres in rural Amite county--part of my grandparents old homesite. My new blog is at "pennypatch1.wordpress.com" if you would like to visit---as I said before, not much there yet--leave me a comment if you visit. Oh yes, before I forget the Saint Benard in the picture as passed on--sad. Penny Patch in the name of the cabin site.
Beautiful view there Kim.... all I see is a couple of rows of houses from my window, and no terrace :( so yeah, Im so envious just like the rest of them here... :)
just kidding btw, hope you had a restful weekend after the move and the tooth removal..
thanks for your kind wishes Indigo
have a wonderful day :))
hi Ron
thanks for your invite to visit your sites...
I will visit and thanks for letting me know about your poetry too..
10 acres...wow that must be absolute paradise
sorry to hear about your Saint Bernard :(
thanks for the history on your town
I'll have to check out where you are on the map
I'm on the Central Coast of NSW Australia and the blue roofs all belong to the same block of apartments ;)
the architect obviously likes blue :)
hi Pearl
thanks
how are you? :)...
the mouth is much better...
:))
great views, i love the outdoor deck too
I'm jealous of that awesome looking hammock in the corner--i love hammocks!
It looks amazing! If I saw that every time I looked out the window I'd wake up at 5am every day!
