Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick...

Lately I feel like there is a clock constantly ticking away the time. So Today is Tuesday the 13 of July. We have finally signed the papers for the house, Yesterday. We were supposed to sign on Friday, but someone did not follow thru with their job and actually ended up not being in the office on Friday, knowing that what they said would be at the title company by Thursday afternoon was not going to be at the title company Thursday really pissed me off. So Monday ended up being signing day. Unfortunately out here the same day you sign is not the same day you get keys. So surprise surprise, we left the title company with no keys to our new home :-( I am hoping we have the keys by Friday. All the things that I had scheduled for delivery for today and tomorrow I have had to cancel and reschedule for Monday. So Monday will be a big ball of chaos! AND....
MONDAY THOMAS WILL BE 4!!! When the heck did that happen? My little man (LM as we lovingly call him) will be 4 years old. He will be starting pre-school once we get settled in the new house. Then it is only one more year till he starts school! WHERE IS THE PAUSE BUTTON???? Time is flying by so quickly!
The next few weeks I will have to remember to BREATH!

So tonight I went to my first spouse social out here. They call it "coffee's" that are held on a monthly basis. I got to meet a lot of women and some that have just recently moved out here like us. I know/hope that I am able to form bonds with them the same way I bonded with my Abilene spouses! There are a lot of things in the works and I can't wait to experience it all with these women.

Well, the hubby is at work, the kids are in bed and the dog has gone on his final walk of the night. I think it is almost time for me to hit the bed myself. I am really hoping that we get a call tomorrow saying we can come get the keys!! That would totally make my day! I can't wait to be moved in so that we can start having company. I am really missing all my family and friends being this far west. I've heard there are some pretty good deals flying to Vegas! I miss everyone!! I hope everyone is doing well.

Until Next Time My Friends...

Are The Days Getting Longer?...

Now that we are in the final days before closing on the house it seems like the days are getting longer and longer. They are changing the work schedule at Kyle's job and are now working a 6day on 2 day off schedule. The only good part is that on their 6th work day if they do not have any appointments or things that need to be done it is like another day off. So with the potential of him being off 3 days in a row is nice. But he also switches to the night shift next week which I think is one of the worst rotations. Can't wait for the month to be over with (yes, I know it is just beginning!). So as we get ready to close on the house our plans have changed yet again. We are no longer going to put down hardwood floors downstairs. It just isn't in the budget or the time frame we are trying to accomplish before moving. We are now planning on doing some of the painting ourselves. So all that leaves is the landscaping. I am excited to get that project started and over with so we can start enjoying the backyard. Well, when I started this blog both kiddos were sleeping, now they are both up, so I will have to finish this posting at another time :-)
Until Later My Friends....
