MY HOUSE

Here it is tomorrow already and Scott is leaving for Texas. I just can't believe it. This week has been so busy getting stuff done I have hardly had time to be sad. The adult acne on my chin is proof that I have been under a bit of stress...coupled with my period. It's not good. Scott says it makes me look young (like a teenager :). Looking on the bright side of things, this house is still in good shape so there aren't lots of things to do. Just the "your house is going to be photographed" pressure of picking up piles, and getting rid of non-essentials. For me, this is when I start pulling away from MY HOUSE. It stops being MY HOUSE so much when I start taking out and putting away MY CRAP. Sometimes I wonder if we are doing the right thing trying to stick around until the end of school. I just hate the thought of pulling the kids this time around. It will be about 4 months of the split family living, which I hate. Which I hate even more this time around because it was so nice having Scott around 24/7. If by some miracle the house sells quickly, we just might have to move out to Texas before the end of the school year. (The average time on the market here is 6-7 months, so I'm not extremely worried) But we are pricing this house to sell sooner than that...so we shall see. Anyway, I must go, today is obnoxiously busy culminating in Hannah's birthday sleepover party tonight. What was I thinking?
