Merry Christmas to us, the house is now, finally, officially on the market! Keep your fingers crossed for a quick sale (ha ha).

A house warming gift from the realtor in Arizona who helped us find our current realtor. Wasn't that sweet! (No pun intended.)

Trying to get the old house spic and span so we can list it for sale. Luke loves this fuzzy dust thing, so we let him "help."

Hey, that looks like our furniture in some new house! The move went beautifully and without a hitch.

And here I thought having our cable cut off twice in two days would be all the drama for today. Nope. When DH went by the new house "just to check on it," he found this in the basement bathroom! That is the ceiling opened up like a trap door, in case you're having trouble orienting yourself in the photo (showerhead on far left center, gold "line" is shower rod). Really not what we needed right now. It must have been caused by the plumbing repairs. That's not going to be a fun fight.

Is this like grown-up paper dolls? I made paper "footprints" of all the furniture to help me figure out where everything will go when we move.

This is the beautiful fall view from the front door of our new house. I can't wait to finally be moved in!

We closed on the new house today! We even have a key, though we don't take possession until Sunday night.

September 2009 Mosaic

Click to biggify. Created using Big Huge Labs Mosaic Maker.

September was an incredibly stressful month! But we also got lots of stuff done, and some fun stuff in there as well. Three-fourths done with Project 365.


Cleo is our box-a-holic kitty. She tried really hard to pack herself off to Texas or North Carolina.


Naturally, once we decided to put the house on the market, things got wild. Most of Atlanta tried to flood, and DH and I freaked out when we heard this earth-shaking thud late one night. He was convinced something hit the house, but I thought it was something hitting the ground. Thankfully, I was right; this giant limb fell out of our neighbor's tree and landed in his yard, somehow missing his deck.


Playing the Wii is so tiring! LOL


To get ready to put the house on the market and move, we've been doing all sorts of cleaning up and cleaning out. I emptied 5 out of 6 of the drawers in this dresser. They are now full of things I am more likely to wear instead of clothes from high school.


And last but not least, a photo of what will be our new home, unless something strange happens at the last minute to cause things to fall through. We are very excited! We close at the end of next month.

This is what grown-up homework looks like. I am so tired of house paperwork!

For some reason, this is the only photo I took today. I was trying to get a good shot of the granite in the new house for my brother. Probably not what I personally would have chosen, but it's fine, and it's real granite, so who am I to complain.
