Moving Thoughts

The realtor just called and someone else is looking at the house today.  Yesterday's Looky Lou's liked it and wanted to know when we could move.  No offers yet.  They are planning on making an offer today.  Mark told our realtor we could close on March 2nd.  Bidding war?  Wishful thinking.  I just keep thinking about where to even start packing and that we could be homeless in three weeks :)  Not really, we are moving to my mom's house.  We will feel like a genie in her house, Itty bitty living space.  It's a roof until we figure out what we are doing next.  She does have a pool.  I will be kinda like vacation.  Yeah, vacation.  

Moving thoughts...

We have a lot of stuff!  

Three weeks, is that possible?

Moving sale?  What in the world do you keep?  We have a lot of fluff!  
Kids toys, oh my!  

Do we really have that many books?  

That couch is heavy!  Really heavy!  

I have a lot of potted plants.  

Mark wants a tomato before we move.  Bless his heart, will one just turn red already!  

How long can you not buy a house and still keep your homestead?  

The garage is a mess what in the world are we going to do with all that?  

That is one big baby! BABY GRAND PIANO!  All 5 ft 9 inches has to go somewhere.  Not my mom's.  Good grief who's idea was it to get a baby grand.  All he wanted was a nice upright, but he loved the sound of the grand.  I admit it... I talked him into it, alright already!

How much do we unpack because we are going to have to do it twice, twice.    

If we do sell how long will we be at my mom's?

Who's idea was this?

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our ...

Thank You 2010

I try very hard not to base my life on my location, size of house, materials I possess, new cars or the latest fashions. It is not something that is easy for me or something I don't have to work on everyday. I have chosen my life to be about Christ and not this world. I try to understand this world in the point of view of Christ. This world is not about what, but who. Even if you are not a Christian it is nobel to do for others. I have chosen in my life to follow Christ. Not perfect, just forgiven. I chose to help organizations that are centered on the love of Christ. My main point this holiday season is to remember the who and not the what. I always thought it would be cool to start a Thank You Card movement. Not that I do things for a thank you. A thank you card just shows me that I did something for someone else that was nice, meaningful, worthy. Kinda like a report card. So my challenge to you is to get a thank you card in 2010. It doesn't have to cost you mon...

Southern Charm

We made an offer (low), the owners countered (expected) and they countered exactly what I thought they would. So, unless the inspector says the house should be demolished we will be the owners of a 1965, full brick, colonial style, bi-level house the second week of July or earlier. It is on a golf course, 6th fairway. It has a pool, fireplace, an original 60's kitchen (redo), hardwood floors, two car garage and much more. We know the process is long when buying a house in this condition. It's not in deplorable shape, livable in need of some updates. It is 44 years old and has not had major updates. This house is 10 years newer than our last house. It has character and southern charm. Not perfect, but perfect for us. Photos on the web are copyrighted. Not sure If I can post them here. I will try and do a link instead......
