Moving Right Along...

I have gotten a few emails asking where I have been on my blog this week. Usually, I blog every day, but sometimes I actually pay attention to important things and get distracted by the "ordinary things of life..." (see Joyce quote in sidebar).


This week?



Still moving...Still uploading and unpacking boxes...still driving between two houses and cleaning between two houses.



I pulled weeds in my new backyard. Convinced my brother to mow my old backyard. Broom swept the new carpet remnant in the living room at the new house, as I continually forget the vacuum cleaner each time I go to the old house...



Found out from the investor who wants to buy our house that the sheriff sale has been scheduled for September 15th. That's so funny, because absolutely no one from the mortgage company has notified us of this yet. As far as our lender knows, we know nothing. Good thing most things are gone - except my brother and my parents and sister who takes turns hanging out there with my brother sleeping over.



The bears can get very suspicious.



I will be so elated when all of this is over. I actually love the home our dear friends have rented to us. I feel more at home here than I ever did at the home we worked so hard for...just to lose in the end. Never again will I put so much stake in a house.



I have slept very little lately. Still adjusting to no central air. It doesn't bother me while awake, but I am guessing that the sound of the continually buzzing 40-something year old window fan my stepfather bought shortly after his return from Vietnam keeps my nervous system humming all night as well. Nice of him to gift it to us...but I think it should have probably gone down with the fall of Saigon.



Lack of sleep, annoying shots at the doc...I have a massive ear infection left over from a sinus infection caused by the medicine from the annoying shot offered for pain. I have treated the infection with loads of garlic pills, willow ear/garlic oil, echinacea, elderberry, vitamin c, and some major Arnica. I added some Tylenol as well. Can't hurt to back up the pain fighters. My head feels like half of it is spitting somewhere over my ear. I should be better by morning. Hopefully, tonight, I will sleep and tomorrow's post will be something great to behold.



Blessings to all...thanks for reading...I am signing off with a Stupid For Fun next to my veteran window fan.
