The previous owners left us quite a collection of random items. Not the least of which was this lovely treasure. We were stressed at the time … we laughed … laughter is good for stress.

It’s been a little over a week since we’ve been in the new house. Thanks to my mom, it’s MUCH cleaner than it was when we moved in. Thanks to all our relatives that helped out this past weekend, we have a good start on all those little to-do projects that never end. Most of […]

The photo on the left is the final photo before the POD left us. On the right is a photo right after the POD arrived. Not too bad. Looks like most everything stayed put. George was just glad the door actually opened!

What do the following items have in common – a purple crazy straw, a piece of colored chalk, a twist tie, a homemade Christmas ornament, 2 popsicle sticks, a Waxahachie ISD pen, a 15″ long stick, and an expired (as of 07/31/00) coupon for 70 cents off Quacker Chewy granola bars? Any clues?

Our vehicles were a bit loaded as we pulled out of SA. Only one vehicle could see out the back window. *sigh* Not having a lot of experience pulling anything (especially without use of a rearview mirror), I chose to drive the kid vehicle. Luckily they both took naps, just not at exactly the same […]

Here George is adding a few more things to the POD before it is picked up. Everything else is either going to have to go into (or on) one of our vehicles – or be left behind. It’s going to be tight. Kids, don’t try this at home!

Our POD arrived today. I was impressed with how they moved the POD from the big truck to my driveway. Fun to watch. It’s empty now, but that will start to change tomorrow. Our SOLD sign was installed yesterday morning. It’s all a bit exciting, a bit scary, and a bit unreal.
