The weekend always seems to go by MUCH too quickly! Friday we went and got the van fixed - broken wire in the vent solenoid...or something like that...but it's all better now (THANK YOU JEREMY AND BILL!!). We also went to Caro to rent a 10X20 storage unit. $75 a month...geesh. :) LOL Whoever thought up that business was a genius!

Yesterday we kind of lazed about the house for a while, then we took the seats out of the van and loaded up all of the boxes that I had already packed, plus a few of the totes from the basement. That little van holds quite a bit of stuff!

Today I am working on packing (yes, I know, not right now while I am playing on the Internet), we are thinking about taking another load out to Caro.

Well, now that I said that, I feel kind of guilty that I am not packing...so I better get to it....


TTFN!

Well, the appraiser was here on Monday. We are now playing the waiting game. :) LOL It's killing me, I tell you. I am not a very patient person. :) Okay, normally I am not *too bad*, but this is all just so exciting that I can't help it!!

I have been packing a few boxes a day, now the living room walls are bare and there are boxes stacked all over....
it's really starting to sink in. Not to mention the knot in my stomach when I think about packing the stuff in the garage... AAAHHH!! :)

I have had a pretty good week, got my 90 day review at work last night, was all good. :) Kind of interesting after all this time to have a job that actually does reviews AND gives raises....not something I EVER got with Kelly!!

I had to buy a new gas cap for the van today - the service engine soon light comes on every time I get gas. Hoping that takes care of it....but I realized old habits die hard. I was standing at the parts counter reading Chevy Hi-Performance....lol. I used to read those at GMPP! :) Kind of nice to see some articles in there about stuff that I knew about, brings back some memories....

Well, I want to watch Law & Order at 7, and I also need to get a couple of boxes packed, so I shall close for now....


Here is a link to my new house...

Woohooo!!! Lots has happened since my last post!
We have put our house on the market, and as of Sunday, we have an offer! Not even ONE FULL WEEK on the market!!
The people came back tonight to take another look at the basement, waiting to hear about that....
They didn't read the seller's disclosure when they were here the first time - I had put in there that we were re-sealing / waterproofing the basement. I guess they had to come look again. It's like, umm, hello, it's not MY fault you didn't read it in the first place.

Plus, Ray did the resealing last night, there is NO water in our basement, and it was pouring last night and with all the snow melting, the ground is just saturated with water. I have standing water in the driveway (low spot in the turnaround) even, but THERE IS NO WATER IN MY BASEMENT!! :) LOL

Now I am going to do some packing - bought a few boxes from U-Haul when I was there inquiring about truck / trailer rental prices....and I also have to work on my presentation for Thursday. Then of course, a nap and then off to work. :P

Sometimes I really hate third shift, but in reality it's not that bad - it just seems like I don't have as much free time because I always take that little nap because I'm 1000000% paranoid that I am going to end up on some machine that is going to kick my ass and I will be exhausted.....
