You have to start somewhere...
I haven't posted in a long time. I don't like that. I like staying on top of things. Being organized. Having a schedule. A routine. Having structure. Do you see a pattern here?
My life is none of the above and that is hard for me. I don't know why I need to be that way, but I do. I mean really...I see so many wonderful people who's lives are 10 times more difficult than my own, and they seem to be doing fine, exceptional in fact. Me? I will cry at the drop of a hat, just down right, blubber red nose swollen puffy eye cry!
Now that that has been establish...HAPPY NEW YEAR?
ABSOLUTELY! Challenges come for a reason. I have a testimony that we are given challenges so that we can become stronger. I know that this year will slowly, but surely, bring structure, and all of the above listed, back to their rightful place in my life.
This is a huge transition for me, and there may be a little light at the end of the tunnel...We have found a house that we hope to call home! I don't want to get too attached because it is a short sale. This could mean that we might not get it, and it may take up to 3 - 6 mo before we know if we get it or not. This means I might wait 6 months to start all over in the house hunt. So there is a light, but it is teeny tiny:)
This comment is more for me than you, but I have also decided not to panic about the order of my posts right now. I most definitely like to post in order, (For obvious reasons) but with the way things are going it's just not a reality in my life right now. I want to stay on top of things that are happening NOW. I will post what happened over the holidays, the move, silly things my daughters did, between posts and when there is time.
My posts will have pictures, but not for awhile. I will tackle that project later.
I kept telling myself that I will post when my life gets a little more under control. My life is not, in my standards, under control, so I have to start somewhere.
All of that being said, I am glad it is a new year! This new year is going to be wonderful! It already is!
Bring it on!

OH Yea! I am so glad you found a house. I will need to hear more details. See you Sunday!!
you are too cute! just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. I know how hard it is, been there done that and still doing it. If you ever need to chat I am a phone call away. Love ya!
I hear ya! Cody just took yet a new job and that means we will be here for 3 more years. I already had my little cry. Just remember how nice it is to finally move home. Call me when you are settled. We have so much to catch up on!
So I had this great thought about coming up with great song lyrics that include the word "Somewhere" to make you feel better, and all I could think of was "somewhere over the rainbow" So that plan is gone, but you will be on top of things again in no time, hang in there. I know that is not what you want to hear right now, but that's all I got. I'm glad you and your family are doing well, and I love you. If you need any help let me know :)
Ohhh-so glad you found a house! Life will get easier soon, but good for you to look on the bright side of things! I miss you so much! I hope all continues to go well.... :)
I completely understand the chaotic feeling. I felt it for the longest time and am finally starting to feel a bit settled and organized (in my mind). Having a home makes a difference. And knowing you get to stay for a bit makes even better. Just remember it doesn't last forever. When you are through with this stage, you will be a better, stronger person. Good luck!
