Checking in.

Life has been interesting. Things have been rough. Boo Hoo for me and us, right? ok, enough of that crap.

OK, in case anyone doesn't know. We're selling our house. The basic reason is because we can't afford it. We really haven't been able to afford it since we moved in, but we have kept trying cus we wanted to stay in a house. What can I say, an extra $4000 in heating/cooling the place wasn't in the budget.

We move to an apartment in November.

We'll have a lot of great things that are only a dream now, like a dishwasher, a garage we can park in, two bathrooms, one of them being a master bath, carpet (you wouldn't think that's a plus, but with the kids, carpet will be easier to maintain), lower heating bills, etc.

The truly sad part of all of this is that we aren't allowed to have pets where we are moving. We are looking for homes for the cats, and may be surrenduring them if we can't find one. That will be rough and we can only hope they get adopted. If you know someone who wants a cat or two, we have two eleven year old cats that need loving homes. The better part of this news, is Sid found a home on Friday. We believe he will be very happy with his new owner.

Besides all this, we're working to sell off or give away the extra furniture and things from our house since it won't all fit in an apartment.

Work is crazy as usual, nothing new there.

Maybe I'll check in again sooner than later. Maybe not ;)
