Been a pretty great day. The weather of course is Fall, leaves are starting to fall and the mornings are colder. The air crisper and sun starts to fade much sooner than it used to. I miss summer already...
The house owner is still saying all is well but that he's busy with several properties and he's getting paperwork together. I don't know what to think. I want to move and I want to do it pronto. I want to be moving on with my life without this place in the way.
The kids are already fighting over rooms and beds and oh my god I really just want to pack me and my sweetheart up and runaway... but they are our kids so we'll have to deal with it. Hopefully they will all grow up and start acting responsible on their own. .... one can dream....

Sunday September 28, 2014....
It has been a wonderfully relaxing weekend. We took boy 2 over to see the house hung out with kids watched a movie an got a visit from the twin and his woman. Good times. Today we slept until noon. we have been hanging with the grand son and soon need to get the other daughter from work. Family. It's what it's about.
I have been so happy and relaxed this weekend I hope the week goes good. Dentists appointments this week as well as hearing about the house.
Still wish there was one more day to the weekend though.
The week will bring a whole new insight on things I'm sure. Whether we need to keep looking or just keep packing. I really want the house though. It's so cute. I love the yard... one track mind I know..
So as not to bore the world to death I'll stop right there and let you know what we find out... to be continued.

Saturday September 27, 2014....
Still no word since they said my credit was good and they were working on the numbers. I just want to remove the for sale sign and start moving myself in. I can't wait to finally be out of Limbo. We took boy 2 over today to look at it and he of course loved it. He was in full agreement that we remove the sign. I can't wait...
The day has been delightfully wet but not so delightfully cold. I am freezing and can barely type because my fingers are so cold. Most of that has to do with my thyroid issues but I am still not really looking forward to winter. The long drives in the scary icy snow.... yuck!
I am happy that we are all getting along and everyone seems to be looking forward to moving and being out of here. School seems to have settled well with the kids and they are already on their way to their first time off with UEA.. It will be Christmas before we know it. Tayson will graduate this year which makes me happy because I despise the school district and want out of it's clutches as soon as possible. He also really wants to be working and can't work with Chris or Tom when he's in school all day. Hopefully once he graduates he will be able to get on helping one of them.
I'm antsy to get through this year and on to a new Limbo free year. I'm hoping to make more money next year. I want us to have a good life and I don't want my honey feeling like he is the only one having to support everyone. He always tells me he thinks I'm doing good and I shouldn't worry but I know better. We barely have anything left once our bills are paid and it will be worse once we are having to pay rent as well. We need to get on a budget and stick to it so we can succeed with everything.
My honey was off this past week and yesterday he went to my mothers house and mowed her lawn, edged her lawn, trimmed all her bushes and fixed her cooler. He also took my son out to see his girlfriend, and played at the park in the river with my daughter. When I came home from work she said "I had the best day with this guy" It always makes my day when she is so happy. Boy 2 called him Dad today too... ok he was being a little sarcastic but things just feel so good lately. Don't know if any of us have smiled this much in the last several years.

Wednesday September 24, 2014....
Looked at and put in an application for a beautiful 4 bedroom house today. It is rent to own has plenty of room and beautiful new appliances. It's further than I think I really thought we would like but the price isn't bad and I really liked it. Plus we would be renting to own it instead of just renting it.
I'm hopeful but yet don't want to be disappointed if we can't move into that one. I can't help but be excited though it's the first one that seems to be big enough for everyone involved and even close to what we can afford a month.
Maybe things are at least looking more hopeful than I was thinking they were yesterday. Cross fingers and wish luck that we can get into this house or one similar. ....

Well I am not so good about this lately. Blogging takes a computer of which my daughter is always hogging. Between her "shows" and her homework, I don't get to do much but pay bills... anyway here we are the end of September. We have to be out of this house in roughly 7 weeks and we don't even have a lead on a place to live. We need at least 4 bedrooms but 5 would be better. There is nothing we can afford...
I haven't gotten the 401k money from the ex yet, no surprises there I guess except I really thought they would have it figured out since they had the papers and then they dated them all wrong. Wonderful!! That man is such a treat. I'm embarrassed she has to call him her father. I'm just going to call him sperm donor.
Praying and praying it's all I know to do at this point. I'm feeling really useless and wouldn't blame my sweetie if he wanted to bolt because I make crap for money and after today will not be getting another raise until next February it's looking like and I'm never going to get my promotion. Good times there!!!
Why is it that every day there is another challenge I don't know how to get through? I know Pray about it.... God knows how to get through it...just wish he would show me some light so I can see it too.

Went to the Specialist today. Wasn't impressed that he will help me. He immediately started saying that he was going to test me for other diseases. I don't want to be treated for other diseases I want to be treated for the disease I already have. Let's start there okay??
Otherwise have a had a pretty good Wednesday. Work goes well and home is good.. except for that not having anywhere to live part. That part is getting a little stressful.
More people came through the house today. A young couple with 3 boys. My honey said "no way with 3 boys in this place?!" Ha Ha welcome to my world. At one time I had 3 boys and a toddler girl. good times. I don't blame people for hating it. I do to.

Another day that flew right by me out the door. I am home now and have been relaxing for far too long.. I really should have started getting stuff done by now but I'm distracted.
Things are seeming strange. Can't really put my finger on it, probably just the stress of getting moved and trying to find a place we can afford. I really don't know what is up with rentals these days, if it's just me or what the deal is but 5 houses I have checked on have all gotten the same response with different names and numbers all wanting to know when they can get the deposit.. I'm certainly not stupid enough to send a deposit without seeing the house and seeing a lease and getting that all taken care of. 5 houses.. Not sure how to tell if something is really for rent or not.
Time is ticking away and I'm starting to get stressed about what we are going to do and where we are going to go. I don't know how everything is going to work and it's driving me crazy. Crazy I tell ya!
Fall has begun and the leaves are changing color. I'd really like to go for a drive and check out the canyon but I don't know if we'll get time to do that this year. Maybe next year. Everything has been so up in the air. I can't wait til we are settled and can really start living our lives.

Today another end will lead to some other beginning I'm sure. There's a reason for everything, and though I may not see it now, there is a reason I will find later. Friendships don't last forever I suppose...
To happier things the kids seem to be doing well in school and I got boy 2's graduation pics from school back. No cap and gown there, he's sporting his stitch tank top. Gotta love it...
The weather has turned cooler and the leaves have started to change. I love the fall with all the colors and crunching the leaves underfoot as you walk down the sidewalk. The days of course will get shorter and the nights longer. I love Halloween as well. Can't wait to start decorating but really really wish I had a new place already.
My worst fear right now is having to move in 4 ft of snow. Not fun even if the Kern boys are the quickest movers I've seen. We are running out of time. I hope we find something soon.

Monday September 1, 2014...
Labor day today. I awoke in my babys arms warm and safe. The sun shining through the window. I get paid to be home today which is always a wonderful feeling. I have to work next Saturday but am hoping and praying either someone will pick up the shift or they offset me tomorrow. So far neither thing has happened.
It's been a blissful weekend. My honey got 4 days off as well as I and we have spent every minute together. I love it. The last husband never wanted to be around me and when I planned a date for us to spend time together he would spend the whole time staring at his clock as though he couldn't wait to be out of my presence. I'm not missing that. Now I am made to feel needed, special, respected, loved. I'm never letting him go.
The kids are back in school and things seem to be going well the first week. Hopefully things will continue to go well. Son two is really liking his new school which allows him to pick his own schedule and has better food.
Haven't heard anything about the 401k yet. Guess the ex really doesn't care if his daughter is sleeping in my van or not. I will get by. God is looking down on us and he's going to make everything all right.
Looking forward to someday soon my life beginning in a whole new wonderful light. Love not having so much stress, well I still have all the same stress but I love that I am not sick over it. I feel like with my honey I can get through anything. It will all work out.
