Steventon

"Right between the middle of nowhere and ‘where are we exactly?”

We moved to Steventon after Christmas to warm up. Never could figure out how to make the Jerricho house warm, being that it is on a corner, and made of brick with no insulation and I think original windows the place was not meant to be warm. With all us being somewhat under the weather it was time for some warmth. So off to Steventon. This is a very small, quite village, I think population 1500, now 1502. 

We are located on the north side of the village in an area called Field Gardens. The neighborhood surprisingly looks a lot like Privot Dr, but is not. I think all houses look a lot alike. We are currently under camping conditions, but do have a bed and do not have to sleep on the ground. And the house is well heated and has insulated walls and new windows. So all in all is nice and cozy. 

We are making due with the stairs as the office.
And you will notice the sox do not match. I have lived out of a suitcase for the past 6 months so you would think it would be hard to have mis matched soxes, but I managed. I think it has something to do with not knowing which suit case has which thing in it. Can not wait for drawers! There are no closets in this house either. 

Update! Just heard the ocean going house hold goods just arrived at South Hampton off the Houston Express. Now all we have to do is wait for customs, and the holidays. 

Beakfast is served hot!  Very hot! 
True love, eggs Benedict on a hot plate! 

The dogs love the place, the smells are sooo interesting. Hard to walk any distance without them stopping to check everything out.  Right across the street is a green space that is also a soccer pitch, the dogs love running loose, going around and around at high speed, nothing like a lot of room to go crazy in. 

We were making plans for where all the furniture would go and saw out the back window a panel van. Yes t was raining, I ran out in my rob and meet Andrew. Awesome find, had a truck full of fresh veggies, fruit and an assortment of other items. 




We would not have to spend the day shopping and now could take dogs for walk to bakery and buy goodies and relax for the afternoon. Instead of jumping on the bus and spending most of the day getting to some where to shop.


Had a nice day, walking dogs and eating good stuff.
