An unusual trip to visit family in the United States7

author:A record of the life of a goose

After returning to Maryland from Ohio, I found that the epidemic was really coming, and all kinds of news reports about the epidemic followed, and I began to feel a little uneasy! Fortunately, my daughter reacted quickly and decided to move her family to Ohio as soon as possible, so I was busy: my lover and I were responsible for packing my luggage, my daughter was responsible for contacting the moving company, responsible for signing the lease contract for the Ohio house as soon as possible, and finding a pick-up for the house in Maryland that did not expire as soon as possible, otherwise various fees would need to be paid. The key point is that all over the United States have begun to rush to buy groceries, and we are unable to rush to buy because we have to move, which further increases my uneasiness. The more nervous the more prone to the situation, a week before the move, Maryland hot weather, we have relatively reduced the clothes on the body, plus a lot of things to deal with, people are particularly tired, my daughter has a cold and fever, in this extraordinary period, sick, the blow to me is very big, worry, anxiety, fatigue, fill my every minute and every second. My daughter flew to Seattle half a month ago, and the most reported news at that time was that there was a more serious epidemic in Seattle, and people sometimes thought about things that were not good, and the more they thought about it, the more worried they were. On weekends, my daughter looked much better, and the girls who rented the house wanted to come to see the house, so my lover and I hurried out to make room for the children to get along. Maybe I was in too much of a hurry to go out, I was dressed too little, plus it was very windy in Maryland that day, and when I was wandering outside, I felt too cold, so I hurried back to the apartment building. The next morning, the morning of the move, I began to have a fever, uncomfortable, looking at my lover and daughter worried eyes, I gritted my teeth, got up from bed early in the morning, and packed my last luggage. No matter what, the days will always go on day by day. The move went on schedule. It's just that we discussed it, and when moving, we try not to communicate with the movers, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble during the special period. Because of the thorough preparations and the successful completion of the move in Maryland, we negotiated with the moving company to arrive in Ohio separately and make an appointment to meet at our new home at four o'clock in the afternoon. The daughter's friends who moved to the house came to send off their daughter and agreed to meet in Ohio in August, when everyone did not realize that the epidemic made it difficult for everyone to meet as scheduled. Daughter's classmates had to meet before the daughter left, send the daughter she snapped up disinfectant wipes, the daughter and classmates to see when the daughter and classmates to see that her mother is currently stranded in the United States, and the visa is about to expire, is now processing an extension application, when I heard these, I felt that the extension application was very far away from us, after some sighs, we hurried to the expected new home, so far, so the troubles and discomfort are all left behind, goodbye Maryland, goodbye to our temporary home, goodbye to the friendly neighbors of Maryland, Goodbye to my daughter's friends.

After more than seven hours of driving, we arrived at our home in Ohio and checked in, while the movers were already waiting for us downstairs. At this time, everyone will have the feeling that the expectation of a new life is spontaneous, which immediately offsets the discomfort caused by the cold and the troubles caused by the epidemic.

On March 11, her daughter officially moved into Dublin, Ohio. Dublin is a small town on the outskirts of Columbus, the capital of Ohio. When you first know Dublin, it is a small city with shady trees, soft lights, sparkling lakes and scattered houses. The scenery shrouded in night, fantasy and beautiful, left me with unlimited imagination and longing when I first arrived. Exotic Dublin has no high-rise buildings, all small bungalows, townhouses or single-family buildings, with the unique comfort and leisure of the small city, but there is no city of boiling and noisy, like a paradise, running its own slow and leisurely rhythm on the edge of the glittering flower world, a flower and a grass, a tree and a tree, not in dispute, not fighting, quietly spitting out their fragrance, the verdant lawn is like a vast and boundless sea, with the undulating terrain, rolling layers of green waves, drawing people's eyes to the endless sky... Daughter's new house is a three-story apartment building, the first floor is a garage, the daughter is also very fond of this garage, the second floor and the third floor are residents, a unit of four families, low living density, garage connected to the corridor, up and down very convenient. The key point is that this apartment is a north-south transparent apartment, this is a rare apartment type in the United States, sitting north facing south, the first time I saw this apartment building, it feels like a chinese northerner design, but with the spread of the epidemic, this design concept is not from China can not be verified and implemented!
