****Drum roll please****
We have a house! Paperwork is signed and we have a potential move in date of June 9th with the hopes of getting in a few days earlier! Sighs of relief all around, please. Now, onto the packing and moving parts. I've been doing some hunting and getting quotes and can I just say that moving is so PRICEY! It is so much more than the last time we hired movers to move everything to the island. Grant it, that was only a 45 mile move, but still... Donations would gladly be accepted to be added to the moving fund!
In other news, I'm a bachelorette for the next month. The hubs has already packed up and moved to SAT and started his new job on Monday. It is eerily quiet around here sometimes and I can only talk to the dogs so much... I need feedback and not just head tilts. It has only been a few days and I'm already going nuts. I spent the ENTIRE day shopping yesterday, and I believe most of the day before shopping online...definitely not what I need to be doing right now before we shell out all of the dough to move! Again, this is why we need donations to the moving fund! I know I should be using this time to pack and organize, but I've yet to acquire boxes. I am scouring the internet for listings because I think it is silly to spend hundreds on packing boxes when they are easily recycled and reused. If any of you know of anyone with boxes, pass their info along!
So I know all of you are back simply because I mentioned BABIES in my teaser post and I have a feeling that you are about to be disappointed when you realize that there are no babies to announce in this household... my apologies, but had to get you to come back didn't I?! I am obviously in the "time-to procreate" stage of life because nearly all of my college and high school friends are on baby one or two (some even more). I feel like every time I log onto Facebook, someone else is announcing their pregnancy (or having it announced for them accidentally!). I mean, seriously?! As if having all of our friends having babies wasn't enough torture! After spending few days cuddling miss Zoe last week, I definitely felt the tug, but listening to her scream inconsolably calmed that a bit! LOL...she's still a precious little thing and I loved our cuddle time and being able to spoil someone else's baby. I can't wait for us to have one of our own, however the Hubs has already put his foot down and said I am forbidden from blogging about it when the time comes! Booo... if only I hadn't forced him to subscribe to this blog so that I could have peace of mind in knowing I had at least on reader. All I can say is that being surrounded by people with babies will eventually get to you. I can spend hours looking at baby clothes and stuff, part of this is probably the result of my working in a baby boutique a few years back and just loving baby stuff! We definitely need higher paying jobs before this family expands! Intern year + baby sounds terrifying! So, I think the wait continues...
Moving on... headed to my parents for a week to help them move into their FINALLY finished remodeled home... not sure if I will be able to post or not, but let's just hope I will. Hope all is well with everyone! Any moving tips or pointers that you'd like to share?! Please do!
Blessings!
