Moving, moving and more moving stuff :)

I need a new name for this blog too, as I've been so awful at posting here... been much better at keeping others updated ;) This one is just kind of the catch-all blog.
Man, moving is some serious business... so many phone calls and arrangements to be made. I'm so afraid that I will end up forgetting something important. I've got lists and info strewn out all over the place... memos and stickies... task lists on the computer and pda... at least this time we don't have to get everything out by some deadline! That is nice.
I'm starting to get so anxious! My brain is already there! I wish we could just skip the physical act of moving all together and just beam everything there! :)
I'm so excited about all the possibilities and opportunities that we will have there. I just can't wait! It's just too bad that things were so difficult here. I do love it here for certain reasons. It's one of the most beautiful places in the world - and I will miss that. It's just so damn hard to live here.
Anyway--- guess I should really try to get some more packing done ;)

Moving Update

So it wasn't such premature blogging afterall! The funny thing is that we ended up renting that house in the end. We ended up with three choices, and it was really the best of the three. And it's really not bad at all - it just needs to be cleaned and painted and it will be great. And the town really is quite quaint! I'm really super excited now! I can't wait! We really need to buckle down this weekend and pack our butts off! :)
That's where we're at now... so probably won't see much on this blog until after we move. It's coming sooo quick! 11 days left!!! The first things we packed were the movies (except a few of duncan's fave cartoons) and my crochet stuff and Mike's radio stuff :) packed most of the distractions away. We should really pack up the computers, but you know that will never happen ;)

Premature Blogging ;)

Grumble, Grumble...
We sent my husband's sister to look at the house we were going to rent... It just didn't sound very good. So now we are still looking. Who knows which town it will be in. I'm pretty disappointed - the town that the house was in sounded so perfect. I was really set on that town. Oh well. I suppose there's other good towns out there. After we're there for a while we'll look for something to buy - and I'll be looking pretty hard in that town ;) And once we're there we can really check out all the small towns in the area and get a better feel for them.
Anyway... we officially started packing! But now we have to spend more time searching for a place to live... :(

Newsflash! We're moving!!

Yes, you heard it right. That's why I've been so busy. And I didn't want to say anything until we told everyone and until my husband gave his notice at work...
We are going from a city pop of 96, to one of 1500!! Woo Hoo!! We're stepping up in the world ;)
We spent this past week exhautively and desperately searching for a house to rent near the city of the new job. It was very rough going, but finally all those calls to city halls of neighboring cities paid off! We found a 3BR to rent about 20 miles from the new job :) yay! And it's in a town! And the town has a school (abt 7 blks from house)!!
Anyway, we've been really busy with getting things settled in that way...

Busy Busy Busy ;)

Man, have I been really bad about posting lately! I've been pretty absorbed with other more important activities, which of course I can't really say much about yet.
Other than that, I've been feeling pretty good lately. It seems that things are looking up and going good ;)
My big plans for the weekend are to get my kitchen in order!!! That has just got to be the priority! I lost control of the kitchen just after Christmas... and it's been out of control since. I was completely proud of myself that I had kept it under control from Thanksgiving until Christmas :) Anyway, I need to get everything under control relatively quickly...
So, just wanted to post quick and say that I will probably not be posting everyday for a while... maybe every other day or every few days...
