We have a house!

We went to look at a possible house this past weekend. After everyone had a chance to see it and talk about things we decided to take it. It's exciting, scarey and overwhelming all at once. This is it. We will all be living together. Holy Moly......we will all be living together!!! I can't wait to be able to get moved in and set up. But that also means leaving our home of more than 10 years, our kids changing schools, leaving behind friends & family. There is also a part of me that's very sad to leave behind what I've known for so long and what feels safe for me in order to take on something new. I'm a creature of habit. Change is extremely difficult for me. I spent some time this morning on the phone with all of the utility companies talking about getting things set up. The house we're moving into is in such a rural area that cable tv/internet/phone isn't available so we have to get a different company for those things.

Bud had an MRI at the local hospital this morning at 6:30. Sweet Lady and I are taking him to another hospital to meet with a surgeon this afternoon. Hopefully we can come home with some answers as to how to help him. It's been hard having him in so much pain. He is physically here with us as much as he can be but emotionally he's very disconnected from me lately. Intimately the connection with him is non-existent for me the last few weeks. I'm starting to really miss him even though he lives right here with me. Soon, I keep telling myself, soon he will be back with me. We just have to get over this one little speed bump.

And here is a picture of the house I took from Google maps. The cars you see parked are not our cars. It's whomever was there before us.
