One door closes and another opens.

Our flower growing enterprise is about to close. The property is on the market and I have flown to China to teach English for several months, so all the parts of the business that we can sell, are on the market. It is very sad – but it was a decision we made.

We’ve been holding some garage sales, as along with the copious pots that we no longer want, there are things from the house that we no longer want, so bedroom furniture and other pieces have found their way to the sale. We are going to de-clutter so some of the old furniture (including dining furniture) will go on the sale.

While it is a sad time in some ways for us, we have the philosophy that as one door closes another opens, so we work on the next phase of our lives. It’s funny – we are selling the bar furniture too – and we’ve never really set up the bar. I’m looking forward to having all new gear when we set up again.
