Day 2

This is day 2 of Karl being in Fort Wayne, and us being here. So far other than missing him it hasn't been that tough. We have cub scouts tonight though. That should be interesting. I need to find out if I should be turning his binder and stuff over. I hope he got a hold of someone about what awards the kids got this month.

I'm doing all the packing I can, but we still don't have a place there! The place we had a lead on may be out, so I'm not sure where to go from here other than just leave it up to Karl. 

Three days left

I'm not sure if things are coming together, staying the same, or falling apart these days. I'm just trying to roll with it. That is not my best quality and for sure goes against my nature when it comes to running the house. I had a bit of a bump in getting things done. My step-grandfather died. I was at his funeral instead of looking for a place to rent last Monday. I was where I needed to be though. We ended up telling our landlord we would be moving out sometime in the near future, but no idea when. I'm buying my mom's Jeep from her. I ended up being able to pick it up on Monday night, since I wasn't far from my Grandpa's at the time. It's weird to have two cars, and until March or so we'll have two car payments which is a bit daunting. We needed it though. We'll be able to cover the payments no problem at least. Karl needs a phone. We'll be shopping for that tonight. He got a PC set up to take with him. He will be heading down on Sunday night, and we probably won't see him until Thanksgiving when we go down to see him. I really wish we were all going this weekend. Karl will be doing most of the house hunting now. He'll do fine at it I think. The pressure to get us down there will help him to get things done.

Packing though has not made a lot of progress. I wasn't home from Saturday to Monday night. I had big plans for that Saturday. I just keep hoping things keep moving forward. They have to, don't they?

Holy Crap!

We're moving! I don't just mean from one rental in the city to another, or that we bought a house. Karl got a job in Fort Wayne IN. Kinda flustered with all that goes with moving right now. He starts working there in about a week, and I will be here with the kids until we can find some place. I will also be in charge of pretty much all the packing, and probably spend a good deal of my time online looking for a place to live. A part of me really wants to not be picking, and just find a cheap house to rent. Then I think about how much I dislike our neighbors now...yeah we'll have to be a little picky. Plus, finding a decent school when we don't know the area. Not that home schooling is totally off the table. Gabe is a very social kid though, and just does better with having other kids to play with daily.

I'm also trying to continue working on my certification. I will have to throw my name out in the ring all over again, but I believe I got a start on that already. I've been working on stuff to add to my website, but just have not had the time to edit it, and get it on there. If life weren't crazy I would be bored stiff though.
