Progress

My house is starting to look like it did when we first moved in... EMPTY! LOL! We didn't have a lot of things when we first moved in, but after almost 4 years it seems like we have collected a lot of stuff and CRAP! Stuff is ok, but it's the CRAP that drives me bonkers! My front room is officially bare. I have couches, entertainment center, a filing cabinet, and a desk with my puter on it. If you saw it before we had 3 couches and many many other items to clutter it up. It feels good to get some stuff accomplished, but it's still not any fun.
We hired a really great friend of my sisters to finish the basement. He and my bro inlaw (with the major help of my bff) to get some amazing things done down there. It's nice to see it all come together, and to know that our finish line wasn't that far from where we left it. LOL! Just wish would have finished it to begin with and we wouldn't have been in this rut. But alas, I am greatful to get to know my sissies friend a little bit better. It's been fun! My amazing friend came over yesterday and despite the fact that I am sick and have a full blown sinus infection and on heavy antibiotics and pain meds I haven't been much helped and completely crashed. I even slept through the earthquake that rattled all of the windows in my house. I vaguely remeber hearing the windows rattle. It seemed to me like it was just another semi coming down our 30 mph hour street doing mock 70 crossing the intersection by our house that makes our windows rattle. Anyway, my BFF took charge and completely gutted my scrapbook room. One room I was regretting to tackle but knew it needed to be so we could get the basement done. I am so very thankful for her and what she has done for me. I know at times I may not be the greatest friends, but I know that I have a friend who will go through thick and thin with me and still love me for who I am. LOVE YOU!!!
Also, a great thank you to my mother and my other SIS, who came over the other day and helped to clean up the main room in my basement so the men could move around. With being sick and ending up getting sicker by the day, I really wasn't much help, and very overwhelmed. I really appreciate the help they gave, and glad they were willing to come help me out in my time of need. *MWAH*
Time is drawing closer. We will be moving the day after the girls get out of school. This way we can be in our new place (not that we've found one yet) and have beds made to sleep in by the 1st. I wont be seeing my hubby much (kind of like right now) for the next 3-4 months, but I knew it was going to happen this way and i accepted it, I just forgot how hard it was. I think I have a mental break down at least once a week. Either I'm on the phone with my sis, or my mom, or right in front of my bff. I have yet to break down in front of my hubby, but he's not around much to see what happens, but he is aware of what I am going through. I communicate with him that way so that he doesn't get bombarded all at once. I try to break it to him easy! LOL!
For a while I have known that I am ready for newer slightly bigger house. Our family has out grown our little home. We will miss it, but we are very excited to move on with our lives and some new adventures.
I have officially 15 days left of work!!! Although I really really don't want to go back at all especially when I haven't been feeling well.
