Moving sucks every bit as much as I was told. Did I chose to listen......no, of course not. I mean really, is it that hard to pack up some boxes and stage my house? WOW, what an adventure! First of all, moving your house a car load at a time is insane! Second, preparing your house to be sold just reminds you how bad you were at finishing all of those unfinished projects!! And last but not least, keeping the house in perfect condition for sellers to walk through at a moments notice is ridiculous! I have learned that I never want to move again which means that I will because life is cruel that way.
On a happier note, I LOVE the house we bought in Longmont and I really look forward to living there and making only one house payment. However, I will miss so much about our Thornton home and all the good things here.
My kids have been so patient and super good at helping to keep the house clean. In between all of the stress, we have continued to live life and have fun doing it. Spencer and I went to a play at the Boulder Dinner Theater with our good friends Christine and Rob. We attended Singing in the Rain and had a wonderful time. The best part was watching the front row guests get soaked during the "Singing in the Rain" song. Of course, they were wearing rain coats but it was still fun to watch.
Christine and I got together for a girls afternoon and went downtown to Legally Blond. I was worried it would be a little on the lame side but I was pleasantly surprised. It was hillarious and followed the movie pretty well.
Spence has hung with the guys and had some movie nights but I'm hoping we can find him some additional hobbies since hiking is out for a little while. He has his last appointment with the prosthetic specialist tomorrow and he will get his new eye. Barbara is the lady who designed and created the eye and she has done an amazing job. I'm excited to see the final product.
My girls are amazing and my three joys! They are staying busy with school and clubs. Mikayla pulled another 4.0 and I'm so proud of her. Middle School is a big adjustment in so many ways and she has conquered it all. Soccer is starting up soon and HALLELUJAH my kids will have something to do on the weekends!
