New House

Originally uploaded by jugglingjello

We’ve been too busy selling our current home and buying this…

We’re headed south at the end of July and are excited and nervous about the new journey. I’m hoping that as things settle, I’ll have some more time to write, especially as we settle ourselves into a brand new city with no family around and begin to make a home there. I’m sure there will be much to tell.

I’m never here.  It’s been crazed.  The house is on the market (3 days, only 1 showing - already freaking out) and we’re just waiting.  I’m behind on a million things and cannot get over the constant cold/flu thing that’s sticking with me.   Oh well.  It will all work out and be over eventually, right?  Right?

I’m so tired that I won’t even move for lunch today.  I’m eating Hershey Kisses and drinking OJ as I window shop online.  It’s a wonder I’m not more healthy, isn’t it?

And apparently I’m 12.  I dig this dress though promise I would never buy it to wear.  It’s just adorable.  Wish it were in N’s size.

That’s all for now folks.  I’m just full of exciting news, aren’t I?

It’s pretty official now - we have a verbal offer and have discussed relocation package.  As long as nothing is changed when the written offer arrives, I am going to become a southern gal.

Stick around y’all*.  There will be tales to be told.

* Note use of y’all.  Do I sound southern yet?

Does MTV still run that campaign?  It’s in my head every time I go to the polls.  I remember a U2 concert with Rock the Vote tables set up everywhere prior to the 1992 election.  Anyhow, I digress.

 I went a little church not far from my home today to vote.  The boy (4 yrs.) was in tow due to behavioral issues - I had to pick him up at school by mid-morning - and I think that it was the only time he behaved.  I explained the process to him the best I could and he studied me every step of the way.  He asked a number of questions and seemed actually quite interested.  Of course, he did get quite angry that he didn’t get a turn.  Oh well- I let him wear my sticker.

It was a good lesson.  Of course between it, my explanation of Earth Day and our fourth day of rotten behavior at school, I think his mind is about blown.  As is mine, and that’s a whole other post.
