Life is SUPER busy right now. So busy in fact....I have neglected my second love...blogging.
I will now explain why I have left you all in the dark.
Grab a cookie, this could get boring.
SO....here it is, 9:30pm on a beautiful wednesday evening and I am jamming out to some tunes, chewing minty gum and packing up my house. You may be wondering to yourself...what kind of tunes am I jamming too...(currently listening to Creed...I need good packing music). Second, you may be wondering what kind of gum I am chewing...Green. And third, you are probably wondering why I am packing up my lovely abode.
Well....here ya go.
Back in early Feb, baby cakes lost his job:( It wasn't his dream job or anything, but still a bummer to the checkbook. As you all know, this current economy is not super fantastic to be job hunting in....SO, we are still looking. He has been offered some jobs, but they really won't work for our simple yet fanastic lifestyle (ie...moving across the country, working EVERY sunday until the day he dies, and working at 3am (and getting paid in peanuts) SO....we are still looking. No worries though, we have grown more in the last two and a half months then we could have ever thought possible. We have learned a simple lesson in food storage (thank GOODNESS for cereal) and have learned lessons that will only benefit us in the future. What a great blessing it has been to learn and grow together.
Are you bored yet???
SO, back to the packing (as I just turned around and saw piles of empty boxes....whoops, I got distracted!)
When we signed our lease for our apartment, we only signed a 6 month lease...I have no idea why, but at the time we both felt that 6 months was the best decision. Recently my brother bought a house and my dad and him have been finishing the basement to be a full apartment. Wouldn't you know, the month our lease is up, is the same month they are looking for renters...:) So, we are packing up and headed to live in my brothers basement. I will go from a 5 minute commute to a 25 minute...but living by family will make it worth it. PLUS we get granite countertops in our kitchen. SOLD! This will give us some time to figure out our next step and we don't have to sign a lease:) yahoo! Plus I get to live right next to my adorable neice and nephew! DOUBLE bonus!
This should help you understand why I have been neglecting my sweet blog and blogging friends. I still spy on you fine people from time to time, so keep up the posting. In the mean time, if you know of a job for baby cakes, shoot me an email :) Honestly, we are learning it is not what you know, but who ya know!
I better get my bunz in gear before baby cakes gets home from basketball...I haven't packed a single box:)
Love to all!!!
