The Moment Draws Nigh

April 5th, 2009 · View Comments

I haven’t been writing too many blog posts lately, because Joe and I are getting ready to move to Costa Rica.  We leave on April 13th and there is SO much to do still!  There have been a lot of unexpected problems arise, and a lot of unexpected stress.  Still, we are doing all we can to make this happen.  I think once we are down there, things will finally settle down a bit.  I know being in such a lush, green environment always puts my mind at ease.

Hopefully by the end of next week, we’ll be in the beginning stages of creating a garden space in this location:

If we get regular visits from these friendly creatures, then it will really brighten my day!

Change can be very diffucult, but sometimes the most rewarding experiences come from a lot of hard work and challenging situations.  Hang in there, love.  Peace will come soon.

  • Looks fantastic! Hope you love it there. Since I'm new to your blog(s) I'm not sure why you've moved the Costa Rica, but I'm sure you'll love the experience of being an ex-pat. If you get too lonely, go to http://www.expat-blog.com/ and you are sure to find someone close by (well sort of close in relative terms lol) , it always helps to have someone to share common experiences with. Best of luck to you!
  • Hi Kimmie! Thanks for the link! We are still getting used to living here, as we've only been here for three weeks. There are many reasons for the move, but right now, we are still trying to decide if its going to be a good fit for us.
  • Amy
    The fog picture is so gorgeous. Wow. I'm in love.
  • Ready to move down here with us? :)
  • I wish you guys the best out there. Well, never lived in that part of the world but I guess - a NEW life is about to begin with some new challenges. Please keep putting up pictures as I'm looking forward to visit in a couple of months. Monica.
  • Thank you so much for the well wishes! You're visiting, Costa Rica? Awesome! Where are you staying?
  • Thinking of you both and your precious kitty. Hoping you all arrived safe and sound and are settling nicely. :-)
  • Thanks, Ingrid! We're all safe and sound, and getting used to the place.
  • Wow this looks great. I'm not sure if I'd enjoy living there though. i mean it must be great for couple weeks. But spending your whole life so far away from civilization must be prett hard.
  • Its definitely taking some major adjusting!
  • Good Luck and Happy trails!
    I hope you will keep us posted on your Costa rica life!

  • Thank you so much Ingrid! You always have such kind and thoughtful words to say. It means a lot to me.

    What brings you to Coasta Rica? And I look forward to your blog once you have moved. Exciting!
  • Read my comment in reply to Isle Dance. Our long term goal is to create an Eco-Tourism business and host holistic retreats.
  • Somehow I missed how/why/OMG is this happening...but how EXCITING!
  • To make a long story short, we fell in love with Costa Rica on our honeymoon and got a good deal on some land. That was about 2 years ago...
  • I'm totally thinking of you right now! Hang in there, whatever is happening. Hang in there! :o)
  • All I could think of reading this was that old Seinfeld episode with George declaring, "Serenity NOW!" :D

    I'm so sorry to hear of the unexpected problems arising. All will work out. Everything is in perfect order. Really.

    In the meantime, I'm sending you some tranquil, soothing Light via the magic of cyberspace. Breathe it in.

    In the blink of an eye you will be standing in that lush, green paradise. YES!
  • Thank you, thank you, thank you! We can use all the good vibes we can get! I know that once we're down there, everything will fall into place.
  • Wow! That's so exciting! Moving to Costa Rica!
    Lush forests. Beautiful scenery! Wildlife! I might be a little jealous. =)

    I wish you all the best with your move!!
    Can't wait for the post once you get there!

    Take care
  • It is very exciting, thanks for the well wishes!
