For Sale

Our house is on the market. "For Sale" sign in the yard and everything. woo hoo! Although I am not excited at the prospect of having to load up our pets and get them out of here so strangers can walk through our house, I am ready to start the process of selling this house and moving on. I will be getting my wish of downsizing in a month or so. I may be regretting it when we are all crammed in to a small three bedroom house someplace!! We have had more room that we needed here, but have grown accustomed to the space. I am hoping that all of our stays in one room at the Ronald McDonald House will have done a bit of good in preparing us for this. Less space to keep clean, less space to heat and cool, less space to have to pay for. I just hope and pray we can find a rental that fits in our budget, will let us have our pets, and is clean and nice. Asking for a lot, huh?
Classes started last week. It seems like right off the bat I have a ton of reading to do. I need to spend my entire afternoon reading. I love to read, so it's not really an issue. I just find that I keep falling asleep while I am reading lately! I guess that's what you do when you get this close to 40! ha ha.
My 40th birthday is in less than 2 weeks. I'd like to have a birthday party simply because I can't remember the last time I had one other than with the kids and Britt. I don't know. Is it selfish to want a birthday party? I mean, I don't want one so bad that I am going to plan it myself and invite folks over or anything.
Elijah is doing really well. He has felt better over the past few days than he has in weeks, I think.
I guess I am going to make up with Jillian Michaels and start the 30 day shred over this evening. ugh. I dread it, but I hate being fat and out of shape.
