New Job

Mark starts his new job this morning.  It took him almost 12 hours to get there yesterday. Without the kids!  EEE GAD!  We have quite a trip ahead of us in less than two weeks.  

We still don't know where we are going to live but Mark starts going to the rentals tomorrow. We have narrowed it down via internet and email with the realtor.  Please pray he finds something so we can be together soon.  Also, we haven't had any action on our house in three weeks.  We even dropped the price. We haven't had one phone call for someone wanting to look.  I know it will all work out, but wishing it would be sooner than later.  

I am packing slowly but surely.  I look around and say, "well there isn't that much to do".  Then I start opening doors and drawer and say to myself "where did all this stuff come from?". Not sure what to pack next.  Seems this week might be toys and nonessential belongings and narrow down to what we will need for the next two weeks.   

Please continue to pray for us.  It seems like getting a job was just the beginning!

Definitely start packing everything you don't need. It is sooo worse to wait last minute. Try and ask for help because it is too overwhelming to do it alone!
God Bless

I started packing early and then thought we didn't have much to pack ahead of time. BIG mistake! I was a crazy woman the last few days. We're praying for you!

Low Expectations

Mark and I took the kids a couple of years ago to Orlando for a weekend.  Nathan was less than a year old, Alexandra must have just turned 2 and Madison was 4.  I look back and laugh but at the time it was anything but funny.  A trip to Disney would be fun and relaxing right?  HA!  We never even made it to Disney because Madison was so ornery the day we were going to go I couldn't justify going.  We learned a lot about being parents of three young kids that weekend.   During our stay we took the kids to the Rainforest Cafe.  Nathan was terrified the whole meal and after our $75 lunch Madison threw up all over the table and floor.  That is when Mark made the rule we don't take the kids to a restaurant unless it has a drive thru, curbside doesn't count.  We really do stick to that rule and the only sit down "nice" restaurant we go to with the kids is Sonny's BBQ.  Before we left I wanted to get the kids a little something from the Disney Marketplace.  I took the...

2 AM Musings

I have been wide awake since before 2 AM. Wide eyed and well, not so bushy tailed. This is the second day in a row. Why?  No really, why? This is the second day in a row my brain refuses to turn off for longer than a few hours. It's like half my brain wants to party and the logical side knows this is not a good thing.    As a mom of three on the first day of a new school year I am sitting in the family room in the dark thinking of all the things I can't do right now. I am also lamenting summer. Today summer break officially ends. At least I am up in time to get the kids to school.   I am not excited for today. It has a few milestones that we can not put off. I will not drive to the elementary school for the first time in eight years. I will be dropping my youngest off at middle school and my oldest at the high school. Also the middle child decided to go back to school so I will not be homeschooling this year.   In a few hours my kids will wake up and ...

Happy New Year!

Happy Anniversary to my parents that got married today many moons ago. Congratulations for over 30 years of marital bliss.   Updates... I know why you should have a realtor.  Too many emotions.  The people that looked out our house put it in their top 3 choices and today they go back to their other 2 choices.  We will see what happens.  I feel a low offer coming our way, if we get an offer at all.     Do you know how much work it is to keep a house walk thru ready?  I feel like we worked all day to get out for an hour and then we came home and trashed the place.     Tomungus, Nathan's new word.  What it means I'm not quite sure, but he thinks it is funny.  He says humongous and ginormous a lot so I think he just said one wrong.   The veggie garden is growing wild. We have tiny tomatoes, squash, zucchini and broccoli. I kinda hope we can get some veggie before we move.  If not I will have to start another garden the kids love it and it keeps them busy watering it.  Playing in  w...
