February 24, 2011- Trying to keep up

It is Thursday morning, and a rainy one it is! The weather here has been so beautiful the past week. One day it got up to 75' and sunny. I can't complain it is February. I am so ready for spring. I miss the green grass, the flowers, the warm weather, my kids playing outside and YES I miss the humidity. I never thought I would ever say that, but I do.
I love rainy days too. They are the days that you can cuddle up on the couch and play with the kids, or read a book. I have set a goal to read more this year.
It is dark outside and the boys are sleeping in. The girls however went to school grumpy because they wanted to stay inside and watch it rain. Well, the rainy season is here and we will enjoy it. Bring on the green grass, I can't wait.
The past few weeks I have been making my lists and getting ready to check them off. I have officially decided to put the house on the market. My goal is to use srping break to get it 100% ready. With kids home for a week I think we can manage this. We are going to clean, box, paint, and re-arrange. I am going to get a storage shed to move all the extra stuff out. Selling your house is no easy job. I know I tried it last year. But I have much faith that this is the year. When Russ gets home I don't want anything to stop us from being together.
We have no idea where we are moving too. All we know is that there is not a job here in Evansville Indiana. I just keep telling my Heavenly Father I will go where ever he wants me to, just let our family be together. This however could mean that our family will be homeless for much of the summer. Again that is OK, we have family and friends who will put up with us.
Please pray for a quick sell of our house.

  1. We've got an extra house! Come live near us for the summer :) You are so tough Amy. I would never be brave enough to get a house ready to sell by myself let alone do it while juggling 5 kids! But it's amazing what you can do when you have no other choice, right? You are my hero.
