Moving

So yeah, We are moving.  Most of you that read my blog already know that we are but I haven't blogged about it until now.  I've really neglected the blog.  Facebook steals most of my computer time and I've been pretty upset with the move and haven't really wanted to write about it.  So yeah, we are giving our house back to the bank.  John likes to say "we've had an offer we couldn't refuse".  I just found out about it all about two weeks ago and have been trying to figure out what our next move will be.  We still have our old house that my parents live in on Saint Cloud Ct. so for now we will be putting all our things in storage and staying there.  Beyond that,  I'm not sure what comes next.  We will figure it all out and land on our feet.  John is smart, works hard and makes a good living.    IN the long run it's probably good we lost this house.  We paid about 800,000 for it and it's worth less than 400 now.  We were really stuck here and we never planned on staying in this house long term.  So, my kids are in daycare today and I'm here trying to get things organized and figure out what's going into storage and what will go with us to the other house.  I feel blessed I will be able to have movers come tomorrow, who will pack and store everything else.  That will be a first for us.  There will be something comforting about staying at the old house too.  Our kids have friends in the culdesac and we will be returning to our old ward for now where we have a lot of friends.  It will be hardest on Christopher to switch wards.  We may end up back the Mountain View ward eventually too.... who knows.  Both good wards, so either way.  I'm pretty much just rambling now and procrastinating all that I need to get done today.

Good luck, with the move, I know things will work, I have always been taught that things happen for a reason, we may not know the reason at the time, but at some distant time in the future our prayers are answered. Good luck with everything....
