Run, Scan, Copy, Fax, Email, Repeat

It seems my life has become one big paper trail.

Thankfully, this is because WE FOUND A HOUSE!

It doesn't have a jacuzzi tub, but it does have a "garden" tub (read: big!) in the master bath as well as a regular tub in the guest/kids' bath, so, no more bathing with Dora for me!!! WOO HOO!!!

After our offer was accepted, I told my husband that I HAD to go to Pier 1 to buy a decoration to celebrate.

His response?

I quote: We just spent $170,000 and now you want to spend more money?

My answer, of course, was a resounding yes.

And I told him that you all would understand my need.

I wish I could post a picture of the whole house because it's really cute, but instead I'll post just part since that's safer.

And since I'll soon be living in my first house without my big strong weapons-trained Navy guy to protect me, I'm all about safety.


So now we're moving from here in just three weeks. And packing out in just two.

Yes, two weeks.

You'd think that because we have an entire wall of boxes that never got unpacked, this would be an easy move. But the house we're moving into is about 900 square feet smaller than the house we're currently renting.

Which means I need to unpack before I can pack.

So, I guess you won't be doing as much blogging as usual... or maybe it'll be much-needed stress relief. Praying everything will go as smooth as possible. Wishing I could be nearby to help.
Love ya.
