I got the bug!!
We (me) kind of got a hankering for some more space. I kind of mentioned it to Alan in a conversation. And then we got excited, and then we started looking at stuff. Now I am waiting on a few answers from some people to see if we are going to pursue getting a bigger house. The prospect of getting things in order in this house to even allow people to wonder all over it is daunting but we haven't even made any decisions. Is that convoluted enough? Not to pat myself on the back, because it took Alan getting a better paying job too, but paying stuff off is what is allowing us to even consider this. It has been a hard year to get to this point but it just might pay off.
What I am waiting on at the moment is to see if we move outside of the high school district we are in now, if they will allow the kids to continue to go where they are. That is a big one. Now, I am not one to allow my kids to run my life, but this is important to Katey and Meaghan. We will see what happens down the road.
This is just for a bigger house, not the actual land I want. That seems a bit out of our reach now, but this might be a stepping stone to that final goal. We will see. I am excited and scared at the same time. If any one wants to come and help paint or lay sod or fix a couple of electrical outlets and such, just let me know and we will make space for you to stay and Alan can cook for you. If you have never had Alan's cooking, you really are missing something. I can cook, but not like him. Well I need to scrub the kitchen floor.
May your dreams come true!!
