Time for a Change!!!
Well, I'm finally at the point that I've been waiting for...the point of having the move behind us. WOW, what a fricken nightmare! I tried so hard last week to have all the small stuff moved, put into place, and some sort of order amongst the chaos so when Saturday came it wouldn't be so bad. Well, Saturday came and holy "crap" there was still a lot. I felt terrible for our helpers, but glad they understood and got the job done. Now, it's just time to purge all of this "stuff" that we have accumulated over the past 7 years being in that house, so that we can start to use our garage....haha!! Brenton and I quit caring about our old house, to say the least! We did enough to get by, but not like we used to. I used to have a schedule, but that all went out the window when we decided to put the house on the market. Then April and May were 2 stressful months, so everything we had planned to do, didn't happen, b/c nothing happened the way it was supposed to. Anyway, it's all behind us now and today I finalized everything up there, so we are now here in Gnadenhutten 100%. Now that we are here, still have things to get done....porches, landscaping, painting, buy furniture to mention a few, but the boys are in heaven. They absolutely love being this close to their cousin's and I love seeing them run a muck and giggling while doing so! It is going to be so fun watching them grow up together and making memories that will last a lifetime...I've waited a very long time to have a house big enough to do all the things I've wanted to, so we are going to embrace this change and make sure to do all we can to enjoy this moment. It's a bittersweet feeling for me, but today I said my goodbye's and as I made my final walk through, I remembered the moments of bringing the boys home, the place where their "firsts" took place, the marking's on the walls...all those moments that are now memories, but I will never forget! I loved that house for everything that it held, but I realize that it is now time to move on and make even more memories here. This house is starting to feel like home, I've got it livable, but need to decorate. That's my thing, I love to decorate, so this might take me some time, LOL! I have ideas and the more that I'm here, it's starting to click how I want each room. I love the fact that we are not under a time crunch, we have time to personalize it, so I'm taking my time and enjoying the change of scenery.
