    Ack.

    So it’s all beginning to feel all that more real now. There is only 2 more weekends until we will be in our house!! That’s it. That’s all. 2 weekends! We need to get a move on and start seriously packing. Which by the way, we are doing today. We are saddling up and packing. I think Friday put a fire under our ass. The lawyer called. We are to go in and sign our life away on Monday. It’ll be all the more real then. We are asking ourselves as to why we waited until May 14. Why not the end of this month or this past Friday!? Why…

    4 weeks and counting

    So 4 weeks from this moment I will be/should be sitting in our new humble abode.Β  Pretty damn exciting. And it’s getting close. Aaaahhhhh! If you look at a calendar and count you may be thinking, “Laura you have lost it, it’s 4 weeks a day.

It means we aren’t pissing our money away into someone else’s pockets. It means we are free to decorate any way we choose. I may need help in this category for sure. It means we don’t have to be as wary of our tv/stereo volume after 11 pm. It means we don’t have…

    2 months!!

    2 Months until we have our new house! 60 days from now we could have keys in hand and moving boxes out of our little apartment into our house. πŸ™‚ Everything is in order now. It’s just sitting back and waiting. And that is brutal. More time consuming than the running around we were doing when trying to decide on a house. We drive by the place every time we are in the vacinity and we are constantly talking about things we want to do, need to, need toΒ  buy, etc. I sometimes just wish we can stop thinking about our house because it makes time move soooo slow. I…
