So I have been slacking. I just haven't had much to say lately. To say my life has been boring might be an understatement. Now that it is summer and I don't have to get John off to school in the morning I am finding it REALLY hard to get motivated. I am doing stuff around the house to get ready for the upcoming move (three weeks from tomorrow I am out of here), but other then that not much is going on. The kids are going out of their mind being cooped up in the house, but it is TOO hot here to do anything outside. I am pretty sure we haven't had too many days below 100 degrees this month. Our backyard is just crunchy and not very inviting. The wind blew the kids pool into the neighbors fence and impaled the thing. John is very distressed about this event. He keeps on telling me that we need to go and buy a new one, but I just don't see the point of buying a new kids pool before we move.
I did get rid of some junk at a yard sale only to realize that I still have too much stuff that I didn't sale. Luckily it looks like Fort Belvoir will be having a post wide yard sale a couple of weeks after we get there. I always find it easier to put stuff aside after a move.
I broke my toe last weekend, or I should say my daughter broke my toe. I don't recommend keeping hand weights within reach of toddlers. They really hurt when they are dropped on a toe. It was my first broken bone. I will always be able to tell her about when she broke mommy's toe.
My sweet husband is coming home early. He gets home on Wednesday and I cannot wait. I haven't told the kids yet. I am just going to surprise them at the airport. John is going to be SO excited to see Daddy. Poor Daddy is not going to be as excited when he realizes that all we are doing over the July 4 weekend is move prep. I am determined to be organized this move. After moving every year to year and a half the past few years things have just gotten thrown into random boxes to never be seen again.
We will officially have two house by the end of next week. I am so relieved that we already have an address in VA, but at the same time it is irritating that we are paying for a house for a full month and won't be living in the place. But this is the price to secure it for us and so that our stuff won't have to go into storage. We have never done a point to point move. I am hopeful that less stuff will break this move. The past move was ridiculous with all of the broken items, but our stuff was in storage for six months. This time it will be put on a truck and taken off that same truck and put into our house.
So to keep in line with my boring, unmotivated life right now I think the kids and I will spend the day in our pj's. We haven't done this for a couple of weeks and I just don't feel like going anywhere today. Hopefully the kids won't drive me insane today!
