Moving Forward

We are moving forward! We got the roof on, we've had multiple showings, an open house, and just overall a mess. I am beginning to dislike the displacement each time. People come and see the house and don't realize that I need to get 3 cats moved to the RV, the house dust free (because how many people are actually allergic to cats!), 4 of my kids out of here, notify the 5th one while at work and get the dog geared up to get in the truck that sometimes I may not even have! It's kind of a mess. Thank goodness we have a great realtor that says we have the time if we need it. I feel like everything needs to be perfect and sometimes it just can't be.

We are beyond blessed with this whole experience. Our realtor, our family that is so supportive, our friends that are like family and our bosses who understand this whole process. It's hard. We have many memories here, but it's not the memories that are holding us back. The realtor asked Kevin when we listed the house: "Do you think she'll be OK when the house sells?" He replied: "They'll be tears for sure". Well, yeah, now there will be! You know it's funny, I have more sentimental value in our furniture that we saved than the house itself. The desk from my Grandpa, my parents dining room table that we modified to a farmhouse table because of the water damage. The chairs that I saved from the table, the rolling cart that I made for my kitchen, the little things. It's the prayers and the kids that keep us going. It's the excitement of being out and about and helping people along the way!
