It's been the longest short week ever and today is moving SOOOO slow.
I'm so ready to go home. I'll be leaving a little early to pick up C because my mom has to go to their closing. I need to figure out dinner tonight too and go shopping for our friend's Christmas dinner on Sunday that we're also hosting. I offered to host before thinking we were going to have NYE so it'll be our third week in a row hosting something. At least we're getting use out of our kitchen.

Not only does it feel like a Wednesday, it also feels like spring because it’s going to be sunny and 50* today and we have zero snow. On January 4th. It’s very weird and I’m all sorts of confused.

M woke me up at 1 because she was scared & it took her over an hour to go back to sleep. Then H was crying around 3.
I need more coffee.

waitwhat Same here. We have a light dusting but it's going to be almost 50 today. This reminds me of the winter C was born. We had a few February days in the 60s. tgrimes that looks really good! At some point, I think we're going to have to start going to a more "heartburn friendly" diet. H has been really struggling lately since he's not supposed to be on daily meds long term. Things like rice, bread and tomatoes really bother him. It's going to be tough.

We didn't get any more snow, but the plows were out widening the streets ladt night so I still had to shovel this morning. If I don't have some killer biceps/shoulders this winter I'll be super pissed.
We had a doctor appointment this morning, and then MIL just came by and picked up the boys for the weekend. So I've got the house to myself. As soon as I get some energy I'm gonna go on a major clean and toy purge.

We are re-offering on the house. In the next week we'll do another inspection and get quotes to do the most pressing work and then probably will have to get the seller to give more cash but we think we can make it work between their cash at closing and our savings. Here we go!!

I don’t know where I am, what day it is, and possibly what my name is. We leave for Colorado next Thursday so I need to really get myself together and start packing. I need a plan for Mia’s food and get ahold of a realtor to look at some properties.

Saturday we’ll be trying to get a feel for the place. Look at some houses, find out where the different stores are, what school districts are preferred, and hopefully eat a ton of delicious food. |

How did I miss this? I just thought he was interviewing. |

I’m so cold right now! I seem to get cold in the afternoon a lot lately. tgrimes, L was crying at 1am so he came in bed with me... I’m exhausted (not why I’m cold every afternoon lately) and I don’t drink coffee! I’m broken, I know. |

tjanca22, that’s a great question! I’m definitely up for a move! (Can’t afford it now) We moved to the east coast because family was closer! I would love to move but I’m not sure where I’d like! I’d love to be in Minnesota or back in Texas. I’d love to live in the UK for a few years too!

I know a couple of people who live in CO and could get some insight depending where you are. Yup! I would appreciate it. I know a family in Denver and she loves it, but that’s about 45-60 minutes away and then the friend who’s trying to get us out there has an adult daughter. So he knows great things about the area, but not necessarily growing family things. You know? |

More like, I’m on board if H is, this is going to be an amazing thing for our family, or somewhere in the middle? H and I agreed when we decided to move here that we would never be too scared of a big change if it meant growth and improvement for us (and now our family). This was a great move for us when we came here, but we were very focused on just the two of us. It has become very clear over the years how close-minded and backwards a majority of the population here continues to choose to be. Combine that with a lack of activities to do, a poor public school system, disappointing grocery stores, and yeah I’m ready for a change. Colorado is appealing because they’re very progressive with their medicine and they not only allow the doctors to do more for the patient, but the patients themselves demand it. Many states, like ours, have a pretty strict flow chart that has to be followed in order to get insurance qualification (and to not get in trouble) and it really does a disservice to everyone. I could really go on and on haha!! |
