sheesh where does the time go?!

So it has been a month and a half since I was last on here and I really don't know where all that time went. December was a very busy month for us. Getting ready for the holidays, then celebrating the holidays, a little bit of traveling and the start of moving/selling the house. 


As of January 9, 2011, our house is officially on the market to be sold!!! I HOPE AND PRAY EVERYDAY that it happens for us! So everyone keep your fingers crossed and pray for us, please! :) 


Sean should be getting his orders by the end of the week and we will be out of North Carolina April 8th or 9th!! which is ONLY 79 DAYS AWAY!!!!!! The plan is to move to Long Island, NY and live with my mother-in-law until we can find jobs and our own place. Fingers crossed that doesn't take too long. We would like to buy but we will see how things go once we get up there and if we have sold our home in Fayetteville. Sean is getting things all set so he can finish he Bachelor's degree at a college up there, sending transcripts and doing all the transfer student stuff. He also plans to take the police test once we get there but I'm hoping he sticks with school and applies to the PA(Physician Assistant) Program like he's been planning. We have sooo many plans that if one fails we have another to lean back on but I hope that's not the case. 
I have been keeping my eye out for any and all jobs around that area. I am really hoping that I can find a teaching position somewhere. Whether in a school, preschool or daycare, I would really like to stick to my field. I know that I will need to take the NY state tests when I get up there and I've found the schedule and study guides but that all has to wait until we are there. I think I've done just about everything I can ahead of time at this point. I just redid my resume, I figured its a new year, time to look for a new job so lets start off with a blank page and thats what I did. I am very pleased with it and am hoping to get copies of my letters of reference and a few other things to add with it :)




Cleaning, laundry and organizing has consumed my life these past 3 weeks...especially with the crazy rare southern blizzard we had last week which left us stuck at ho me for 3 days!! I am a pretty organized person but now that we are moving and going through things I have become overloaded with it all. So much old stuff has been burned and shredded and now things are so much easier to find. I have gone through all of our closets and took a trunk full of stuff to donate at Goodwill over the weekend and still have more to drop off this weekend. Sean has been pulling out bins from the garage and we slowly go through it all. I can't believe how much Army crap we have! It takes over atleast a third of the garage. Now that he has to turn in a bunch of stuff to get out, we can rid of some but there is still so much left!

Tomorrow is Thursday which makes me happy because we are closer to the weekend!!! I need to sleep in later than 6 on Saturday because these early morning are killing me. I wake up at 6am everything M-F because Sam gets dropped off around 6:30ish...going back to sleep for a little happens at times but sometimes it is so hard to fall back to sleep. I have alot planned to get done around the house tomorrow because we have a guy coming to take photos of the house soon, so that they can be up with the online listing. I HAVE to get Liam's baptism invitations out in the mail by the weekend so I should work on those tomorrow too!


Well I got a nice hour to relax and finally catch up on my blog now I hear mister Liam waking up from his nap. He's been asleep since 1:30 which is awesome for me but I had to clean up the mess from Hurricane Chloe that consumed her entire room before momma's relaxing time could begin. LOL 


until next time...



Absolutely adore him <3
