No more.

No more posts here...the cat is out of the bag, so I'm back posting on the regular blog! :) Thanks for checking us out here!!

Try to think positively!

Ugh. I cleaned out the whole trailer. Threw away a bunch of our stuff. Took more to Traci's garage sale pile. Cleaned out the shed and cleaned off the deck thanks to Buddy. And now, now the guy looked at it in 5 minutes and decided he didn't want it. And he'd already seen pictures. Ugh. So anyway, now I have an empty trailer, no deck, no shed, and no golf cart. But on the positive side...we made $5,000 selling the stuff besides the trailer, so that money will definitely HELP with other stuff. Done camping for this year...and we'll see what next year brings. I'm going out tonight or tomorrow to put 4 sale signs back in the windows. Who knows, maybe the holiday weekend will find us a buyer. And if not, I'll try to keep thinking positively!! :)

Hangin' with the grandparents!

Madi and I moved into Gramps and Gram's on Sunday. This morning when I was blowdrying my hair I looked over and saw FASHION PLATES! Did you have those? Oh man, I was kinda excited. So after Gram made us some yummy lasagna for dinner, Mads and I set to work creating some fashion plate dolls!





Other moving updates...we probably have the trailer sold...a guy is coming from Canada on Thursday to decide for sure he wants it, if so, it's gone. No more news on the house...still just waiting. Have I told you how impatient I am? Yeah, not my strong suit. But it's pretty cool getting to stay at Gramps and Gram's for a while, and keep seeing family and friend. I miss my boys though...all 4 of them. And my cats. And my dogs. Yes, I said I miss my dogs. Thanks Jill for taking great care of them. She called me today to tell me that she leads them around the property using a four wheeler and SNACKS :) Tell me those aren't our dogs HA HA! I'll keep you posted if anything new and exciting (besides the fact we're moving two hours away) develops!

It's starting to wear on us all...

I'm not trying to be whiny, honest, but this living in two towns in 4 places is starting to wear on us all...and I saw this the other day and thought, oh my gosh, it definitely sums up how I feel right now.

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are.
Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart.
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow.
Let me hold you while I may, for it will not always be so.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow,
or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky, and want, more than all
the world, your return.
-Mary Jean Irion

I just want to make my kids dinner, do some laundry, scrap, and watch Tiger's with my husband. And I know it'll be over soon, and we just need to be patient, and I will try, but I'm looking forward to a NORMAL DAY :)

My Celebrity...

Yep, people have recognized him since this...

Just random people in the "village." Congrats hon!! (this is small...that's him in the middle with two other guys...the guy in red is Madi's principal, the other is the new high school principal)

An update...

in list form :)

• No new news on the house...still waiting for paperwork to get finished


• Kyle and the boys are officially living in the apartment


• Madi and I are chillin' at the campground (I'm blogging from outside the office where there's a wi-fi connection)


• The cats made the trip to Lakeview on Monday when Madi and I took a load up on Monday.
  

• Madi and I had to get on the road at 5:30AM to get home on Tuesday morning in time for me to get to work...thanks Gram for meeting us near work so I didn't have to tack on another half an hour! Madi asked if it was the middle of the night, and then if we were the only ones up at that time!

• My pups are sad they're not at home...they're staying with my dad, and that's great, but they seem stumped as to why none of their people are around.


• The new "tenants" arrived and are moving in...I'm glad, but it's weird too!


• Madi and I are headed to Lakeview Friday night for a day or two, and we'll haul another load up!
• I'm going to cook some on Saturday to make meals for the boys...then I'll feel like I'm taking care of them somehow!
• Kyle is in the throes of cleaning out his office, meeting teachers, having meetings, and is BUSY!
• The boys are enjoying having time to sleep in, relax, play video games, and not have a mom bossing them around :)

I'm heading back to the "laundromat" here in the camper to switch my laundry...have a great night!! Who would've thought that you could do the laundry and blog from a campground? LOL!!

Oh.My.Gosh.

Exhaustion. Seriously.

My house is empty. Well except for the cats...and a few other thing stowed in the basement. My garage however, is full. Like insanely full. As is the van and the car. The van is full of my boys too...Kyle included. They are headed to Lakeview. No longer citizens of Jackson County. Madi and I are headed up tonight with a car-full for them too. All their clothes.

It was an emotional weekend for me. I think just being plain old tired. And then add on leaving your home of the last 10 years, and knowing your hometown of pretty much your whole life is changing. And half your family is leaving. ICK!

Anyway, my mom was out of control this weekend, cleaning, working a garage sale, cleaning, hugging me when I cried :) Thank Mom! And Kandi Jean...thanks for cleaning things I wouldn't let most people even SEE!!! Rex, thanks for painting...and Steve B thanks for helping fix odds and ends.

Alright, going now, before I cry some more! And really, I AM OK!!! Just emotional. I still want this all more than ever...just can't wait to be settled into a new HOME and back together with my BOYS.
