5 days

Monday, 5 days until we pull away from our little house.

My brain feels like it is going at 100 thoughts a second and if I don't get it on my list of things to do, I feel like I am going to really freak out!

Since I am working all the way up until Friday and then moving on Saturday morning, I think I am setting myself up for complete stress! But Matt will be home all week so he will be able to take care of a lot of stuff that needs to be done before we move. Like the potential renter for our house who will be coming by tonight…

I have about 8 lists… those lists are my life right now. Today I am home from work so that I can get our stuff together that we will need for the road trip and possibly after we arrive to Ohio and don't have our stuff yet… stuff like clothes, toiletries, bedding…. Moves will be here in 2 days. Our house still currently looks like we are living here and will not be moving anytime soon…well just the inside does. The outside was cleaned up yesterday. My parents came over and we hauled the Scout, which was my great grandpa's car and Matt's future hobby car which would have remained a future hobby car forever, back over to their house. We loaded them up with plants that weren't staying with the house but couldn't come with us because they would be killed by the cold.

Yesterday after going through the gardens and grabbing all my bird baths and stepping stones I had a mini breakdown. This is so very hard. I do not want to leave my house. Can I take my house with me?? It isn't very big, im sure we can load in the back of the truck.

This weekend we had a going away party with family and some friends. It was really nice. I got to see a lot of my girlfriends who I hadn't seen since my wedding! It was a blast.

I also chopped off all my hair. It was getting pretty long and I figured that since my hairdresser is here (my mom) It might be a long commute next time I need to get a trim. It looked a lot better when my mom fixed it but here it is today. I would also like to note that I LOVE photoshop... I am breaking out so bad from the stress but you cant even tell in the photos! got to love that "make over" tool!

I would love to keep blogging and maybe I will again later, but my 8 lists are screaming my name and as much as I would like to ignore them, I cant. I am also very mad because I missed Greys Anatomy and Desperate Housewife's season opener thinking I could watch them online but NO! The ABC player doesn't work... ahhhh

Happy Monday!

Happy Autumn

Happy first day of beautiful fall! Seems like just last week I was getting excited for Spring.

9 days until the movers come and pack up our house…we still don’t have a start date in Ohio yet.

I want to give at least 2 weeks’ notice to my job, but I have a feeling when Matt finds out a start date, we won’t have 2 weeks…I am mentally preparing for myself for the worst… but hoping for the best!

9 days until the movers come and I have a long list of stuff to-do. My weekend to-do list was pretty long but I only managed to get 1 items done which was clean the house and even then I didn’t finish it completely!

What did I do??

Well, I got the dogs Halloween Costumes together and took a few photos of them wearing there cute little outfits…Baxter is a pumpkin and Niquie is a fairy... The outfit is a child's outfit that I found at the Dollar Store. Good thing her waist is so tiny so she could fit the Tu-Tu! I also added thicker elastic to keep the wings from falling off...a fairy cant loose her wings!

I went grocery shopping…

I hung out with family…

I went to my cousins wedding…

I slept until 11 am one morning…

None of these were on my list. But I had fun…doesn’t that count?

Next weekend we are having a going away party at our house. I think I will get back to my list next Sunday after all the excitement is over… that leaves 3 days before the movers come… and 3 days to get everything we will need to survive, until we see our stuff again, all together.
