merry christmas

The Faber family is in a holding pattern, restless in their seats and circling their nearly completed cohousing unit. After frequent delays throughout the last year, the final countdown has begun. We were told a couple weeks ago that we might be in by Christmas - no such luck. But we are hoping for New Years.



About half of our current house is in boxes. This makes for the awkward,"Where is the spatula?" Response, "In the bottom of the box underneath all those other boxes." But somehow, I'm still tripping over just as many of Levi's toys every day. Someone must not be respecting the rules of packing.

There are about 1/2 of the families into their homes now over at the cohousing site. So some of the fun cohousing stuff is starting to happen. We had a small birthday party last night and then some spontaneous poker. We can't wait to be just a small walk on a pathway away from our friends and neighbors.

Cohousing is great! I live near a cohousing project here in Jamaica Plain, Mass. When you get in there, I hope all your dreams about it come true.
