Time to Breath, at the moment....

We have had a pretty busy couple of months. Here is the low down of what we have done since the new year....

• Freshly painted the toy room, upstairs bathroom, both stairwells, the entire basement (walls and floors), kitchen nook, and touched up the crown molding. I learned a valuable lesson, in the 8 yrs Ken and I have been married, I finally realized that you never paint with Ken. He complains the whole time, he would rather get a root canal then paint. I, on the other hand, find it therapeutic (maybe because of the fumes).
  
• Packing up the clutter
  
• Reorganizing the furniture to make the house feel open and spacious.
• Cleaning all appliances, fixtures and floors.
• Outside we raked the leaves, worked on the landscaping, painted the door frames to the back door and door to garage.
  
• I painted the front porch.
• We organized and swept the garage.
• While doing all these projects, we still functioned as regular parents with jobs and responsibilities.

It may have been rough these past couple of months, but it sure paid off. Within 25 days and 5 showings, we SOLD our house!!! Just under the asking price. Things just could not have gone better for us. We truly are blessed.

Now the next step for us is to get the moving all arranged and flying out to Loris, SC to look for housing and take a walk along the beach. We are closing at the end of May and Ken doesn't finish residency until June 30th. I am going to take time to breath the next couple of weeks to enjoy my family and friends, then I can worry about moving arrangements.
