Homeless

Well, it's official. As if 11:30 am on July 10, 2008, we are homeless. Brian and I signed away our perfect home and are now living on the road. Literally. We have some of our things stored at the parsonage in Thomastown, a good bit of goodies in a storage POD (but to perfectly honest I have no clue where that POD is stored) and yes, even things stored in my van. God knew we needed more room in a vehicle when we traded in my beloved Expedition.
Oh, my sweet home in Florence. If ever there was a perfect mesh of living space and family, it was our abode in Florence. Yard, open floor plan, hardwood floors, it had everything we needed, just not the right school district. Brian and I went round and round in the discussion of which to move...schools and kids or houses. Kids won. We made the right decision, it's just difficult letting go of something that you once held so dear. Material possessions, I know, but when you're on the move as much as the Hills, you become attached real quick.
We've made an offer on a house on the Rez, just haven't heard about it yet.
See my red shoes...there's no place like home, there's no place like home.

Simple Times

Ever have one of those days/weeks/whatever when you just can't catch a break? Right now the word in our house is "IF" and is usually attached to the phrase "THIS WORKS". Our house has sold (we sign the contract on the 10th) but we haven't found a place yet. We've got a couple of temporary options but nothing permanent yet. Seeing as how we have to be out of our home on the 6th, let me see, yep, we're getting stressed. I needed to take a breather today and calm down...here's how I accomplished that.
