6 months and counting . . .

Okay so Dan and I have hit the 6 month waiting list . . . I cannot imagine waiting for another 6 months, it seems never ending. Pretty sure I have taken the "keep busy and time will fly" idea to the extreme.

1. Val and I are doing the Mayo craft fair on Nov 14th, we are so busy trying to prepare for that, we are so excited. mom and val plan to head up to our winter wonderland for the fun-filled (and hopefully profitable!) weekend.

2. Sounds crazy but we have decided to move, which means we have to sell our house (sounds simple right?) I thought our house was in pretty good shape but the list of things to do keeps growing not shrinking; and everything is taking longer than expected. Ernie and Dan have been working to repair the deck, a small project turned into completely redoing the entire floor. I have been painting, packing, de-cluttering, packing more, multiple delivery trips to goodwill.

What put me over the edge today was after a sleepless night (did i mention both dan and I have been sick?) the garbage disposal exploded. I decided I had enough for the day and was taking a serious break from de-cluttering/packing. The friendly plumber installed a nice expensive disposal that the new owners are sure to enjoy. Who knew disposals were so expensive?

I have shopped at Menards almost everyday for the past week and I am sure tomorrow will not be any different, ughhhh. did i mention I ordered new countertops and replaced all the possible hardware in our house.

the big questions is: how do I get the "Designed to Sell" and "House Hunters" pros to come take over this disaster!
