Worthington Avenue


This is the home we found out yesterday will be ours!


Needless to say we are very excited. If all inspections go well, we will close July 31st and take possession on August 3rd. A few rooms need some paint but otherwise, it is awesome. The house was built 118 years ago. For those in SA, it feel like something in King William.


Can't wait to have someone come visit!

Eastern Time Zone


Just wanted to make sure you know we are eastern time and no longer central time. If you are an early bird, feel free to call in the morning!!! Sun is up early and goes down later around here too!

Kipper went off to work this morning, looking dapper in his navy blue suit and new tie the girls and I picked out for him! He was a nervous wreck. We are so very proud of him and know this will be an awesome opportunity for us all, especially Kipper.

We house hunted yesterday and saw a couple things that may just work. The girls and I are hoping to run see 3-4 more today that we could not get into yesterday. Ohio seems to have more options although there are two of the five on our list in Kentucky. Still hoping to stay south of the Mason-Dixon line!!!

Here are some more photos from Texas and Oklahoma! Click the links....
Love to all, missing everyone!

Counting down and breathing heavy


I am sitting looking at the sun shining here in Tulsa and thinking of the million and one things I need to do. So far today I have taken Nexium, fixed toast for Campbell, Gatorade for Addison, coffee for me and Kipper, vacuumed the downstairs, scooped the litter box, called two doctors to get Addison in today, unloaded the dishwasher, gotten dressed, fed the cats, met the glass replacement company, taken three Advil, paid the glass replacement company, gotten the mail, gone to the Dr. with Addison, held Addison while she got a shot for strep, put sunscreen on Campbell, sent Campbell off to swim with friends, made Addison lunch, heated leftovers for myself, called gate service to place gates open during moving days, talked to moving company about packers, washed dishes, cancelled a Dr. Appt., gone to return a pair of pants at Steinmart, gotten Addison a "prize" for her shot (a Webkinz Elephant), stopped at Wal-Mart for prescription refill, drinks for packers and toilet paper, emailed both my Realtors, spoken to the gate service again, updated my blog a little, checked email, taken two more Advil, and now I look out the window dazed.

I need to vacuum the upstairs, move a few more things to the "DO NOT PACK and DELIVER TO APARTMENT" stacks, wash more dishes, wash last of laundry before my washer and dryer are un-hooked tomorrow, make my bed, check Addison's temperature, check on vet for next week for cats while loading, and oh about a million other things I will see to do if I leave this chair to go do them.......

I think I will log onto my Webkinz and play a game, or I could go take a shower, have not done that today, or I could hide in the guest room and sleep......or not.

I think I will BREATHE. IN-OUT.....IN-OUT.......IN-OUT
