This little house is mine!
Paid the deposit earlier today, will do the paperwork with the solicitor tomorrow.
I’ve named the place
“Dunmovin”
brings tears of joy to my eyes every time I write it!
The stars have aligned with Old Man Crow’s spirit riding the wild winds that are blowing…
Magic Days!
It's Crow Time 
Congratulations, this is wonderful
Oh Mo I am so happy for you that you have found a place to call home. I remember the time I bought my house and how it gave me such a wonderful sense of achievement and peace. I’m sure old man crow is there with you feeling your joy. I hope your first Christmas in your new home is the best of many more to come♥️
(((Lana))) the move will happen in late January, all the paperwork still has to go through for the the sale to be finalized & I am catsitting for my ex next door neighbour in Newtown in the city til mid January.
(((Mo))) – wonderful news! Huge hugs
(((Susi))) the Magic of Love can turn your life upside down & inside out, I have fallen head over heels in love with a house!
So happy for you, Mo. ((hugs))
(((Di))) what a turnaround, never dreamed I could have my very own house in this lifetime, Love moves in mysterious ways!
I am so happy for you! It is a beautiful little house in a lovely location. Blessings to you going forward.
(((René))) the garden has great bones, just needs a good gardener with an artist’s eye & that’s me!
Fantastic news Mo!!! So pleased and happy for you….Marg n Mike oxoxox
(((Marg & Mike))) it’s a long time dream come true, I can walk my talk of living a sustainable life, will put solar panels on the roof with reverse cycle A/C & keep Silver Seabright chooks, one of which needs to be named Calliope!
Woo Hoo !! Seabrights are beautiful, very friendly and very smart too. My beautiful Brother (Boofa, now dec.) used to breed chooks. His chicken setup was a sight to behold. I miss him very much and his beautiful chickens. I hope you can let them be free range, locking them up at night. We just love having chickens. ox
(((Margaret))) I’ve been thinking about Silver Seabrights all day and how I want to name a hen Calliope Chook! In Greek mythology Calliope is the muse of eloquence and epic poetry. I look forward to looking after chooks, do they need heated accommodation in a cool climate?
As long as they are draught free with lots of clean straw, they will be fine. Ours are in a wooden shed, with chicken wire doors. They love to be outside and will go in their coop if they get too cold. LOVE having chickens ( over 20 years now) They love company so 2 or 3 is a good amount. They also snuggle up for warmth in Winter. ox
(((Marg))) thanks for these good tips, you’re a treasure!
Oh Mo – such joy!!! What a sweetheart of a house it is – with a studio!!! You will be so happy there. The stars have aligned indeed!
(((Fiona))) when I rode my bicycle up to take a squizz 10 days ago it felt like I had come home and everything has moved very fast from there, wild Magic is afoot!
Mo – brings tears to my eyes as well. Isn’t it such a feeling to know you have found a beautiful place of your own. So much potential with the new studio space; and a new roof for the gazebo. Sending so much love to you. B
(((Barry))) such a wild roller coaster ride of a year!
Welcome home Mo and Rod…a place of comfort and joy, a place of shelter and inspiration, a place that was meant to be. And now, an Irish blessing for the house and for you:
May your troubles be less
And your blessings be more.
And nothing but happiness
Come through your door.
(((Marti))) thank you for this beautiful blessing for my new home & life! As Anne Dybka my mentor in glass engraving said so many years ago, “We get so many lives in this one lifetime”
What happy news! Congratulations, Mo. How big is the land parcel? Will you garden?
(((Dee))) the property is app 664.2 square metres, the garden has good bones, just needs a good gardener with an artist’s eye & that’s me!
And how nice it’ll be to garden not for a client but for yourself!
looking forward to growing all those cool climate flowers and trees that I have only read about in books, I have a peony growing in a pot ready to plant out in autumn, will try sowing Blue Tibetan Poppies in the ground then as well as my spring sowing in pots didn’t germinate (they are notoriously hard to grow but in the right spot will flourish) and I have wanted to grow Snakeshead Fritillaria for half a lifetime, now I can!
Having a gazebo might be a boon to some of these seedlings ventures.
will enjoy taking the thatch off the roof of the Gazebo and reroofing in clear Alsynite to make a Victorian style conservatory a la Morticia and Cleopatra her pet carnivorous plant in the 1960’s tv show The Addams Family!
home at last … wishing you gentle days
(((Liz))) my eyes are not much good for the fine details these days, a house & garden are a much bigger canvas to work with, will enjoy taking the rest of my life to nurture the garden and look after the old house!
Oh Mo…this is just the best news ever!!! Yay! Your little home is going to hold you for many years to come. Best, Nancy
(((Nancy))) the wild Blue Mountains have romanced my soul, the community has welcomed me with open arms, this little house and garden will shelter & nurture me for the rest of my days, feels so good to truly become a Blackheathen!
Congratulations Mo! Knowing you’re in the right place is magical.
wonderful news! congratulations, love that house name
(((Saskia))) was wondering why I have been keeping this rented house so very neat and tidy ever since I moved in at the beginning of May & now I know, packing up will be so easy this time and I’ll get my bond back when I give notice no worries.This will be my last move, living in 52 houses in one lifetime is enough!
Love love love
(((Jude))) Love is all we need & I have fallen madly truly wildly head over heels in love with this place, I want to look after it for the rest of my life!
❤
(((Mo!))) Congratulations. Looking forward to a picture tour!
(((Beth))) will post more photos soon!
Oh Mo, I’m really HAPPY for you ! congrats !!!!! Wishing you many happy days there !
(((Els))) such wild magic days Love is the Answer!
That’s wonderful Mo. Yes sometimes the stars
alien and all goes well.
Congratulations
Jenny xx
(((Jenny))) let’s catch up in Sydney, I will be catsitting my ex next door neighbour’s little black cat in Camperdown from next Monday til mid January, do you have any gigs happening?
Good morning Mo
It would be lovely to catch up while you are in town. We are playing at Marrickville Bowlo on the 15th of January 4:30pm. Failing that we could meet somewhere or you are welcome to come over to the house.
J&G xx
(((Jenny))) I’ll be catching the train back to Blackheath on the 15th, will get in touch and see when your home in the New Year!
oh YES! and how WONDER FULL!!!! i look so forward to all that will come of it!!!!
(((Grace))) x fingers everything goes through smoothly so I can move in early February!
Dear Mo
How sweet is that
xd
(((Debbie))) it’s a dream come true, I will be a Blackheathen for the rest of my life!
Oh this is the best news! 🙂 I will add on about the chickens…I never used heat for my chickens. First winter when there was snow and it was below freezing for days I was so nervous about it. I decided I just had to trust the research I’d done. And the flowers..so excited for you!
(((Deb))) this is good to know, I enjoyed keeping chooks half a lifetime ago ago but that was in the subtropics & I will certainly have the company of a cat!
