And the Beat Goes On

There’s a rolling thunderstorm going on tonight. I love storms, especially at bedtime.

My husband and I went out on a "date" tonight and mom watched the kids. We try to do that once a week at least. It gives us a chance to breathe without the kids, but really during dinner out, that is what we talk about. Well, the kids and the stuff going on with the new house. We saw the new John Travolta movie, The Taking of Pelham 123. Awesome movie, go see it.

Our house went on the market 2 or 3 days ago, and twice people have stopped and asked us (since we are usually out in the yard) about the house and have asked for a personal tour. While I wouldnt do that if my husband was at work, he was here so it felt safe to do that. The couple who stopped today seemed very interested in our home. Life will be so sweet if we sell this soon. I hope they call our realtor. We have joked about that we will call our realtor and tell him we’ve shown our house twice as much as he has (he hasnt shown it yet) and that we want a commission. He is the kidding sort so he will take it in gest.

Life is going right along, feel a sense of accomplishment for doing alot of packing and also taking care of a rental tenent’s need for a new stove. Lord, her place was very….unkept…nasty. Dirty dishes on the floor and fermenting food on the countertops. Oui.

I think tomorrow is more packing. We have 2 weeks before closing but honestly, how do you pack a whole house for a family of four. Its proving to be alot of work but I am tossing alot of stuff or taking things to Salvation Army.

Going to bed, this storm is soothing. Night.
