The tiredness of the whole moving process??? It's been one crazy weekend, and now it's Monday and we're in the full swing of the moving act. Got the house completely packed today (even though the movers claimed they needed 3 full days to pack) and will be doing the actual move tomorrow.
I'm beat, the kids are tired I have laundry out the ying yang to finish before tomorrow morning when the move actually begins. To make matters worse I'm doing this alone yet again....hubby is working his bum off and has no time to help with the move.
Boy, dont I sound whiney tonight. Oh well, gotta find an outlet sometimes right? Now, if the twins would ever go to sleep I'd be a happy camper. They've had a very stressful and busy day! It's understandable they be wired beyond belief.
Tomorrow will be a better day surly. I'll just be happy to get moved and settled back into living life normally. Sometimes in the middle of things like this, normalcy is a distant dream, but as all other things...this too shall pass and light will come beaming down the end of this tunnel.
On a brighter note...the new house is absolutely fabulous!!! New counter tops, new carpet, new and improved rooms, and a 2 car garage!!!! What more could I ask for. The thoughts of being able to live in a much larger house is a dream come true, especially since we've been living cramped for so long. I just cant wait to spend our first night in the new house, and since the move seems to be going quicker than we expected it's looking like our first night will be tomorrow night! Yay is the only phrase I can muster up that describes how I feel about that.
So, off to bed soon for me...we have a long day ahead of us tomorrow...so next entry hopefully I'll be doing it from the comfort of our new home! How fabulous will that be!!!! :)

Moving yet again
Wow, sometimes it really blows my mind how much I can actually have on my plate at one time. Between homeschooling my oldest children and taking care of the boys (twin 2 yr olds) housework, laundry, cooking and taking care of the other kids and now adding a move on top of that! I'm really surprised I've not passed out from exhaustion yet LOL :)
Here we are again...moving....we've moved 3 times in the last 2 yrs. That's a lot even for a military family. Housing renovations here on the base we live have caused such an uproar and a lot of trouble for families. Now however, it's almost over as we're moving next week into a newly renovated house YAY!!! No more housing that's too small for my family, no more sitting on top of one another because we have no room. Even though it's a total PITA to move I'm so excited about this one and so ready for it!!!
Of course it's going to be really rough (as it always is) because my husband is working crazy long hours and will not be around to help, but that's no surprise, it's always like this when we move. You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but it still gets under my skin! I know it's not his fault, it's the nature of the military and I should really be thankful he's not deployed (and I am truly) but sometimes I need some help. He tries to help as much as he can, but sometimes it's just not possible so I venture it alone.
Enough of that whiney whoa is me stuff....that's so not my personality!!! Guess I just needed to get that off my chest. Hopefully things will run smoothly and all will go as planned (okay when has that ever happened in our life ROFL) so that's the attitude I walk out into the world today with...positivity goes much further than negativity right? Of course it does...so now, here I go...moving again and accomplishing it with a loving, happy and POSITIVE attitude!!!!
