Finding surprises along the way (one Dove Chocolate, small bag of mints) and so happy to find the potholders yesterday! We lived in an apartment here for three months. Not terrible, but not a ton of fun, either. Having your daughter nearby will make it so much better! And you'll have to come here to see who has more dishes. I think I have you beat.

So happy you rented a place and close your teacher girl. <br /><br /> You may be happily surprised how little you actually need for living day-to-day. Sorry about the car woes. I would trade in a car after those major expenses but not on moving day.

There's 1000 miles between Melody and I and I cannot imagine what would ever change that....nothing good so I guess I am praying that it doesn't! lol.

Yesterday as I was out looking at new patio furniture my husband told me he thought I was in denial because it's crazy to be buying new furniture when we plan to move in the next 12 months or so... I don't think it's denial, as someone who has had 9 major moves in 20 years and just sent off 9 van loads of stuff to the Goodwill I am not in denial. I just know if I don't live in this moment and always live preparing for the next move I will be miserable.
