Hello!!
It seems like it has been forever since I was able to log on and participate. I am very glad to say that we did move from Japan!!! Though we are not on a farm *sniff* I DO have a much bigger yard, live next to a forrest, and have a neighbor with a yard full of ducks and chickens *grinning*!! I love hearing the rooster crowing!! We JUST got settled into the house last week and I Just got internet on Saturday. I am in a beautiful home full of ugly boxes but this too shall pass soon!! I have missed being here so very very much and am SO excited to be able to be back!! To all those I know, I truly missed you and send tons of hugs your way!! to those I do not know yet, I am so glad you are here and can not wait to get to know you all!!
Hugs!!

Hello Karin <HUGS> 
I tell you it has been quite the funny and sometimes not so funny move ... I now have my 93 year old grandmother living with us, my oldest DS is away getting help for some not great choices he made, and I just found out I am pregnant (HUGE SURPRIZE THERE!!! lol) all while trying to make the change from Japan here, find a home, and try to settle in ! Needless to say I am so thankful to be back online, have a home, be able to experience Europe, and work on a magic potion that will unpack and make boxes disappear!!  I will have to figure out how to post pictures here so I can share my adventure with you all.
Thank you so much for stopping to say hello!!
Hugs!
Talitha

Congrats on your move, hope you love it in Germany. I'm so happy for you (expecting a little one). Wonderful news! Looking forward to 'meeting' here with you often. Pics would be super, but know you are very very busy. Are you in the military? I guess we don't send to Japan. So that would be a no. :) Enjoy your new home.
Find your joy and live it. http://cheneybaglady.blogspot.com/http://www.kpaints.etsy.com |

It's great to have you back, Talitha! Your mother was right about your sunny disposition. I've missed your 'sunny self' on this forum.

Karen,
Thank you so much and I look forward to getting to know you too! Actually there is a lot of military in Japan and originally that is why we were there. Then my DH got out of the military but continues to work for them as a civilian. So we are here now in Germany and my DH works for the US Department of Defense here.
I will work on those pictures!!
Hugs!
Talitha

Buttercup welcome back, and you have so much news to share!!!! I can't wait to hear more about Germany.....I have never been there. Is the nearby forest a big one like the old stories always tell about? And congratulations about your new one on the way!

Jeannie,
Thank you so much!
No I do not live near the Black Forest, though I plan to go there soon! The one by my home is just government protected forest with nice walking trails throughout. And some deer, tons of birds, and I do not know what other critters.
See you 'round!
Hugs!

Hey Talitha,
lucky you,,,,a precious baby on the way...Blessings to you & DH.
As for Deutschland, where abouts are you?
My mother is from/born in Heilbronn, (the Military base has been closed down), I was born in Stuttgart & lived in Neu Ulm, Munich, Augsburg as well as Heilbronn. Most times on base but in Heilbronn we lived on the Economy w/my Opa.
I so miss Germany it has been some years since my last trip & I am long over due to go back to visit family & friends.
Please do post pic's...hey why not set up a blog and it can be your "diary".
All I can say is, ENJOY! lucky you.

Grace,
Thank you!!
And how neat! We are in a little town outside of Wiesbaden called Bad Schwalbach. My husband currently works in Mannheim but will be transferring here to Wiesbaden by June (or so they say ) How neat to have someone here who knows about my new home!
When do you plan return for a visit!? And yes you are right, I am cooking supper while chatting with you all!
I have seriously thought of setting up a blog, it seems the easy way to go for keeping family and friends up to date. If I do I shall let everyone here know!
Hugs!!
Talitha

Marian,
I am near Wiesbaden... on the north west side... do you know where that is compared to you? How far are we apart? It would be wonderful to be close to another farmgirl!!!
Hugs!
