We’re in… our new house!

image The moving started Friday. The UHAUL truck was picked up Friday afternoon and I drove it back to the house. We had a bunch of plastic tubs, so we went ahead and loaded those ourselves.

The movers showed up almost an hour late, but they did a great job. They got all the heavy stuff and put it on the truck in about 45 minutes and then we left for the new house; 8.4 miles away.

They unpacked the furniture and put it in the places Beck needed it; mostly upstairs. And all the tubs were placed in the garage.

We have nothing put together. The garage is a storage nightmare and Beck has a kitchen to rebuild, I’ve fans to mount and many more things to do.

Ethan has already been playing the back yard since the first day; it’s awesome. The yard is huge. Ethan, Britty and I can run around in the back yard, kicking the ball around and playing catch- it’s much better than before… Britty is already back in school; she’s close enough to where she can walk there in about 15 minutes. So, unless it’s raining.. she’s walkin’.

There’s a pond close by. I’m going to see if I can get Ethan to go down there with me to fish. Should be interesting.

I was sad to see my garden go… I didn’t ever get a chance to get any really good tomatoes from it, but it was tryin’. Maybe next year…

 

Until next time,

The closer we get…

We [Beck and I] went over to the new house on Tuesday for another short walk through. The people we’re buying the house from is/wasn’t back yet and we were going to over to see about a few little issues, and geek me wanted to make sure the projector worked [it does].

Becky has already started talking about where this is going and where that’s going and what she wants to do where [again]. She’s already talking paint again…

She was asking me the other day about moving some things around, asking my thoughts on arrangement of furniture and buying and selling pieces. My response was I didn’t care… ‘I use the couch, the bed and my desk- everything else, don’t bother me about’.

Brittany is going back to school for her senior year. She’s going to yet another new school; this ones actually very nice in comparison. I’m hoping she likes this one and tries to excel. I asked her the other day about having to switch schools so much and she’s blunt about it, ‘it sucks’. I can’t say as I blame her; we have moved a lot.

As a new parent you don’t always make the right choices; you really stumble through the whole process. And others have told me, ‘…you’ve really no idea what your doing, you just take what you’ve and try to make the best decisions’. I think this is very true.

Ethan is doing well, he’s so independent; it’s hard to get over. And he’s trying so hard to figure stuff out and he’s testing the waters constantly [to see what he can get away with]. He’s been getting out’ta line and misbehaving and when I’ve to correct him, it’s hard because he thinks I’m being mean to him..

So, we only have a few days now and we’ll be in our new house [nothing bad yet]…

We’ll keep ya posted!

Until next time…
