Today was the day that my parents finally got to get out of the extended-stay hotel they had been at for the past 5 weeks, and move into their new house. Thank god. I had been avoiding visiting my parents because I couldn't stand the thought of going to Candlewood Suites instead of the house. It was so depressing.
But this new place is fantastic. It's all old timey and farmhouse-y. The vaulted ceiling in the kitchen/sitting room is oak. As BA mentioned yesterday, the maple trees are tapped, there's a chicken coop (that will be housing Rhode Island Reds in the spring!), and it's surrounded by farmland. And the parents are finally settled, which makes me (and them too, I suppose) feel so much better about them selling the old homestead.
All in all, it was a good day.
