Furniture move date!

Yep, we've finally got it. A date when all of our furniture and most of our belongings will once again be in one place. By next Tuesday, I hope to be completely out of our old house and
into the new one, which looks like this (except with now super long grass, out of control weeds and dead plants due to lack of watering):




The kitchen is mostly moved over except for the few things we're still using at the other house. I can do this mainly because neither one of us cook much. Though, I am hoping to use the waning days of summer to learn how to barbecue. That is, if the enormous mosquitos don't fly off with my barbecuing utensils...or the grill.

I still want to post some before and after pictures, but I have to get my husband to get them off the digital camera. I could do it...but it probably wouldn't be pretty. I'd like to have my own digital camera so I don't have to worry about breaking his. But money is a bit uncertain at this point. As most of you already know, my husband is leaving his job to become a full-time Realtor, effective this Friday. I'm very proud and excited for him, as I know he'll do a great job. But it's a little nerve-wracking as well. We're both used to having jobs with steady paychecks. My husband jokingly says I am now the breadwinner. And I remind him quite frequently that I'm better at being the bread-eater. *grin* But we're hoping this move will help us get a little closer to our long-term goals.

Anyway, stay tuned for pictures...hopefully before next Christmas.
