Calm down

Well we are now moved to our cute new home. We ended up keeping the other place to mid next month so we had time to get everything moved, and get it cleaned up. Cleaning it is a job! I just don't understand how if I keep my house clean (most of the time, giggle) that it could be so filthy when it's time to move. The new place is much smaller than we are used to, but it is very cozy. We are all really enjoying it even with less space. The kids each have their own rooms which makes a huge difference in their interactions daily. I don't think I could ever go back to any of them sharing a room again! We still have scattered boxes of things looking for a new home, but we are mostly unpacked now. This move has been the worst in the history of moves! I did not pack or organize very well at all, and that resulted in serious ciaos. It was actually rather embarrassing how it all came about this move. I was not sure if we were moving or if so where. It created some issues with the get ready process! lol. Oh well whats done is done, and hopefully that will never be a problem again. I like this house enough that we are talking about possibly purchasing it in the future then I would never have to move again! haha. Julie is doing good with volleyball so far. She still has a lot of coughing, but the phnemonia seems to be long gone praise the Lord. Julie is taking an art class this semester which she is really enjoying. So glad that Wichita Falls has so many oppurtunities for homeschoolers. Paige is back in dance this month, and enjoying every minute of it. Seth is just waiting for basketball to start so he can get to it. Hopefully we can get back to park day this Friday. The kids have missed it the past few weeks between illness and the move. I suppose that is enough for now. I hope that you enjoy my updates. :)

Oh the stress

Well it has started out to be a really rough month for us. Julie is really sick with pneumonia, and as you probably know Julie does not get sick. If Julie is sick it is a cold day in.... well you get my point. She has been very scared also because she doesn't get sick usually, and she just doesn't understand why she did get sick this time. She seems to be doing better though so I am hopeful she will be good as new in a few days. We have until the end of the month to find a place to live, move everything, and clean this place. We thought we had it figured out, but we have decided at the last minute (to me) to find a home leased by a private investor rather than staying in military housing. We think we have found some where to go, but it's now a waiting game of if we will get a check in time to secure the home or not. Very VERY nerve racking! Just in the process of packing, and starting to clean what I can here. I am hoping that the actual physical act of moving will go smoothly since the leading up process has been a pain in the neck. School has been put on hold this past week due to illness in the house, but we plan to get back at it bright and early tomorrow morning. The good thing that is going to come with this move is I get to buy a new living room set. Ours is old and worn out to the point of holes. I am thinking a nice futon, and a couple of recliners. Also if we get the place we are hoping for the kids will all have their own room. It will be nice to decorate each child's room according to their own likes verses when they share and I have to cater to all. Peter is doing good with the start of the semester. He is taking a class on campus as well as one online. He is ahead of schedule so far so hopefully he can stay a step ahead this semester! Alrighty I am gonna go for now. Have a great month folks.
