Moving

A lot has happened since the 18th (my last post).

1.) I had a sale on my Etsy site
2.) Xmas came and went (had a great time with my family and friends)
3.) Finally found a house to move into
4.) PACKING!

Yep, I especially hate #4! We found a place to rent as of yesterday and we are moving in 3 days! AAAAAHHHH!!!

I had some things already boxed, but not much. It's so hard to pack with 3 little ones. NOT FUN! All I can do is do a little here and there when I can and in between bursts of playtime and naps. I've got 2 more rough days of some MEGA packing (how can one collect so much crap in 4 years?) but it'll get done.

Very happy to finally have found a home. It's smaller than what we have now. But it'll be fine. Got to remember, we are just renting! We were just so picky on what was out there for rentals. Wanted to get the best deal, a good school for the kids and save some $. Well...we did do that. No pool and smaller, but it's just fine. I really felt at home in this house.

It's going to get some used to it...there is tile everywhere. I don't have the cabinet space as I do now and there isn't a 4th bedroom or den for the office so I will have to find some closet to stuff all my craft things. Most likely my things will be in boxes till our next move w/in our 9month lease. But I can see the windows open, the Gulf breeze flowing thru the house and many nights eating dinner on our covered lanai. The kids have a small back yard. A big change for them, they are used to our acre of woods and grass. But they like the home. And the best part...we have a boat lift for our boat right in our backyard. Just a hop, skip and a jump into the Gulf. Definately gonna soak up the water life in the next 9months b/c who knows if we will ever have the chance to live on the water again.

Yes, I said 9months. We know of 2 neighborhoods in the area that we want to buy a house in so hopefully we can find a good deal in one of those neighborhoods w/in that time frame. And yes, that would mean moving again...but there will be many things that I won't unpack...the garage will be full!

Well, I'm beat. Gonna turn in early b/c I have a busy day tomorrow. Till next time....
