What next?

Thoughts on the future...

The drive isn't fun. Why is the speed limit on 294 fifty-five if everyone insists on 75, 85, and, I swear, 100?? I white knuckled the steering wheel for a while. Horrifying for one who doesn't like to drive!

We looked at four houses. Three of them were FILTHY. I work so hard to keep our home clean for showings (absolutely spotless next to what we saw!) and these people let their homes collect inches of dust and cobwebs and bugs...oh, the bugs.

Why hasn't our house sold yet?? It's so clean!!!

That's the rant.

Good stuff? Well, it was pretty. Lots of nature preserves and walking/biking paths. Lots of stores people here often drool over (Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, etc). Lots of neighborhoods that look nice. Plenty of decent schools, even if we're still a bit confused on how districts work.

It'll be ok. Maybe even great. In the meantime, I'm still working on the idea of leaving home. I still can't say I'm excited for this change. On the other hand, I am extremely ready to have my little family back together. I'll take the change for that!
