By far my biggest event of 2024 was that I moved! Specifically, my partner and I bought a house together.

Here's my partner taking a picture of her own. This was almost exactly a year ago, early in 2024. We'd decided to get a place together in the spring.

That year the spring was marked not only by the snow melting, but by a total solar eclipse. I was lucky not to have to travel to see it, since it came to me. I took this picture during the few minutes of totality in the parking area outside my apartment.

Not too long after that, we found our new home. In the summer, flowers sprang up in the yard that must have been planted by the previous owners. It was a lovely welcome.

We had hundreds of amaryllis bulbs across our front yard since they tend to multiply if you leave them alone. They were so lovely in the spring. Later on, I found out that all those plants had been ripped out by the new owners 😞
