Argh...The Wait Continues

Thank you all for your comments and patience while I've been in transition...

We're pretty much settled in, but are still having troubles with the internet. Apparently my husband needs to crawl beneath the house to do something to the cables in order for there to be enough signal for us to use a cable modem.

I'm trying *very* hard to be patient...it is not easy. Not only is my schoolwork and "business" suffering, but I feel as though it's been a lifetime since I've been able to sit and blog...not just post an update or some pictures, but really write.

Hopefully I will return soon. In the meantime, it'll be limited to visits to other's houses and my one day a week job in an office (because, clearly, working on strictly office work for an entire eight hour stretch would be far too tedious...)

Breathing Room...

Without going into a tirade about the local cable company who (still) has yet to connect our new home to the internet, I thought I'd take advantage of my inlaw's internet access to submit a long overdue post. (It's really quite eerie how dependant on computers and the internet I've become...these past two weeks have been filled with withdrawl. I've spent my naptimes either wandering around the house looking for things to clean, or actually napping, rather than sitting down to babble here.)

Here are some pictures of our new space. After months of living with my parents, somehow the hassle of packing and moving and living (temporarily)without an internet connection seems worth it.

Absolutely.

Pretty windows

(Sliding doors in the bedroom? Really?)

A new home for The Boss

It's done. Nearly two months after we first laid eyes on it, we own it.

It was a long, l-o-n-g day with lots of driving, lots of paperwork and several moments of temporary insanity between my husband and I. The Boss endured it all with us, in and out of his carseat all day long, a wet pair of shorts, and an empty cup of juice all before lunchtime. He's a trooper.

To see his face light up as he ran between the rooms of the house made it all worth it. He looked right at home, grinning and running laps around the realtor's legs - it was all the confirmation I needed that this is where we should be. Home.

And tonight, my head hurts.

Now to focus on packing/organizing/and moving this weekend...

Next week: Writing.
