Well, it's been a week since Matt left. (seriously seems like months already) This week has been a whirlwind for me. Started off not wanting to do a damn thing but mope.
Then, on Monday, I figured I better get my butt in gear. I have to be out of this house by the 8th of September. I spent the afternoon gutting my closet. 5 full black garbage bags later, I was done. Dropped them off at a local church.
Tuesday morning I picked up my mom from the airport. SO thankful she's here to help me. I felt so lost and she's helping me keep my focus. Love her to death. We didn't do too much yesterday, but man, did we work today! And a wonderful friend took my kids for 4 hours so we wouldn't be bothered. Still, much more to do.
So, on to Matt. He's been settling in very well. Having some issues getting his internet up and running beyond a snail's pace. But, as soon as he does, he'll be posting on the blog too. He's already been to a couple of dinners, literary night (aka poker night), and went to check out some cars. AND, best of all, he shot photos of our new home!
I'm really impressed. Much nicer than I had thought. We got very lucky and landed a 3 bedroom. It has two family rooms, a large yard, decent kitchen and I actually have a laundry room!!!!!! (since I moved out on my own, I have never had a laundry room...ever!) It's tiny, but it's mine. I don't have to be in a hallway, or in the garage! I'm stoked! :)
And so, here is a slideshow of our new home. The yard of course will need plants, but we love to do that. When I get there I'll put the ladies touch on the walls. :) And the girls already have plans for their room. One less thing to worry about now...we have a home, it's lovely, and best of all, it's free!!
