I Cannot Believe We Made It

5/3/2017

Sometimes I think whoa, where did the time go? Sometimes it's holy crap, hurry up. Others I feel like I am never going to get all this done. 

You know what I am sayin'? 
Anyway, I explained my blog absence to you in the last post... It's a miracle we have all made it through that endeavor. No internet while trying to homeschool two kids is a nightmare. Good for you if you pull that off without drinking.

Basically, April was the craziest month. I think it may have been the most insane one Stu and I have created together. My face broke out. I yelled (more than usual). I cried (in front of people). It was horrible. But all that stress was going to end... I knew it would.

My life felt like a big pot on the stove, to which I kept adding cups of stress. I kept stirring, hoping it wouldn't boil over. I have a few burns from the bubbles. But nothing major. 

All the stress was leading up to our week of closing. True, closing is stressful enough. But our week was unfortunately (for us) extra busy. Here's a quick recap:

  • Easter Sunday was lovely. As you know, we spent it with my family and the pups. The StuMonsters always love it when they get to play with the dogs. 
  • Monday was our walk-through. I spent the morning packing and prepping things at the frame shop. Although, I was so overwhelmed by this point, that I do not know how much help I was actually doing. 
  • Tuesday morning, we closed on the house! I still have a hard time wrapping my brain around closing. It feels surreal. This place belongs to us. This is our home. We have no move-out date in sight. 
  • Tuesday afternoon, I stayed at the house for a bit. I had packed up my car before closing, so I would have a load of stuff to drop off at the house. I used this time to pick up some essentials: water bottles to put in the fridge, toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, trash bags. My mom brought the kids up to meet me. I thought it was important to let them open the house with the keys on the actual day we got it. 
  • Wednesday was probably the most chill of the week. The kids and I spent the day at the house. They played, I cleaned.

I brought a board game for them. That and their Tsum Tsums kept them busy for several hours.
  • Thursday was just nuts. The kids had school online in the morning. Immediately after that, Rea and I packed up. We stopped at the house (to drop more stuff off) and then continued on to Orlando. (more on this in the next post)
  • While we were at Disney, Stu and my Dad were loading the truck at the shop. Quite a good amount of our stuff has been in storage for years there. 
  • Friday began at the cheery hour of 3:30am. Yes, you read that correctly. Reagan, Meghan and I were off to run the Star Wars Dark Side 5K. (more on that in the next post) After racing and showering, Rea and I headed back south. Friday afternoon was packing and (lots of) chilling - Man, I was pooped. 
  • Saturday was go time! Friends and family (only the best and greatest) came to the rescue. And we finished loading the truck and cars up. Since we are only about 35-40 minutes up the highway, it was not necessary to get every single belonging. Poor Mom... we left a lot of junk and a huge mess. (I'm sorry Mom.)

    Nothing super fancy here. Probably not life changing either. But you might enjoy a peek into our world.
