I lost the pics of the bedrooms and the bathrooms.
The bathrooms are ugly, but I will save and get rid of the ugly blue tub, blue sink and yellow tile.

Too all my friends out in Bloggerland...

Something to be thankful for

We got our house!!!
We close in a few weeks but we have it!!
It is a 1970 single story, brick house that sits on 1.8 acres loaded with oak trees.
It also has an inground pool but that is getting filled in ASAP.
Too much to repair and resurface, to much upkeep. Instead it will be the site of my veggie garden.
We are taking our mother's out to see it tomorrow before we eat, I will take some pics and post them later this weekend.
But I am so relieved!
This whole situation has been so stressful!!!
We close on the house we live in now in about a week, then hopefully the new house the next week. I want all of this over, done with and gone!

Momma's little helper

Baby wants to help pack unfortunatly she is trying to pack herself.

Happy Birthday Mojo!!

Ok I am a bit late posting these but I have been busy.
Here is Mojo with his birthday loofa dog!
He loves those loofa dogs, how I wish I invented them.

Here's Mojo...

Ok when I saw this pic it reminded me of that scene in The Shinning with jack Nicholson.
Maybe it's just me, or it could be that Halloween is tomorrow, and I am ready for a horror movie fest at my sister's.
Any way tomorrow my sweet baby boy Mojo will be one. And right now I am worried about him. He is having surgery today. He is getting nuetured. Hell of away to celebrate a birthday!(hubby says he is worried what I have planned for his in March!LOL)
He gets to come home tomorrow evening.

The mess I call my life.

Ok in the end of June a realtor came to our house to inform us that we are selling.
Funny this is the first we heard about it.
But it seems that the county wants to buy up the entire block to build a new probation office.
So we have been house hunting since, to no avail.
Everytime we find a place something happens and it fell thru, that happened twice.
And those were the only two houses that came close to being what we need and want.
So anyway we went and signed the papers to sell our house this past Tuesday.
We close on December 17th and have until March 17th to vacate and take everyting and anything that we want to take out of the house.
And we are planning on doing just that.
Anyway we are going to keep looking and maybe we will find one before we have to move in with my mother-in-law.
And that is what I have been up to.
And trust me looking at 21 houses in a week really wears you out!
