Rediscovery Part 2

Beth, I forgot to post. I guess if there are people reading this aside from the 6 people, I KNOW who are reading my posts, I need to update everyone.

It's happened. Operation Holy Cow is in full, freakin force. It HAS happened. I got the job I wanted and I'm so excited. Florida, here I come!

Now is the hard part. My heart has hurt all day. The emotional side of this was expected but hurts far worse than I had imagined.

So, in about four weeks, I get to rediscover myself again in a whole new world (cue song from Aladdin here in Broadway musical).

When will the tears stop? I'm excited - don't get me wrong. I don't regret it at all - yet. It's just hard to decipher through the tears.

It will be okay. It's just a bit difficult at the moment.

And I'm proud to be an American....

where at least I know I'm free...

I love that song. I get teary-eyed almost every time I hear (which is really like once a year). We went to see the fireworks at Vulcan (mainly b/c I told Mr. Fitness that it may be the last time in a while that we get to see them - if OHC comes through)

This was the longest weekend. We had so much to do and not enough time to fit it all in. But, boy oh boy did we accomplish a lot!

I seriously started to type out the chronological order of events but we DID SO MUCH THIS WEEKEND that I would be here for like an hour still typing.

We still have a few odds & ends to wrap up but hopefully, we can get it all done in the next few days.

Aside from work on the house, we did fit in some fun things, like watch the UFC fight Jackson vs. Griffin - Go Forrest! I finished reading the sequel to Twilight. And, we rode our bikes twice.

So last night, when I finally went to bed, I realized how much I had done and why my body was hurting from head to toe. It was hard to get up this morning.

Interviews & OHC Update - SHRUBBERY!

So, today I have 3 interviews.

2 in which I'm the interviewer and one of which I'm the interviewee.

That's weird and has NEVER happened in the history of MY life. (Broadway musical potential? eh. yeah, I didn't think so either)

OHC Update: Our Realtor came by the house last night. She looked things over and made a few recommendations but said our house "was cute and we were on the right track (in reference to staging and what we had left to do before we put on the market)".

Harley (our lone dog) growled at her and she jumped. We had to kick Harley out. Harley is our furry version of Sybil. She's a princess. She's a wrestler. She's a guard dog. And other personalities that I can't think of at the moment. (And, I cannot believe I don't have any pictures of her on this friggin computer! Bad Mom!) Mr. Fitness has already taught her a new trick, since she's now spoiled and gets our undivided attention 24/7. She can already sit but now she can lay down after she sits. She really is a smart dog. I want to keep her and take her to South FL with us. I think Mr. Fitness does too but he referenced letting his bro take her while we are in the Bahamas for a "trial run" and I said "if we do that we will never see Harley again" They don't have a fence or anything to keep her close. AND, she was the dog that the vet lost. It took 2 days to find her.

I digress. So anyway, we are going to work on some things (paint and stage 2 rooms, clean out the laundry room and paint, put up new blinds in laundry room, trim all the SHRUBBERY! around the house, cut grass and weed-eat, put down some mulch, clean back patio and stage, place flowers throughout front and back porch and by mailbox, clean out storage room, finish painting trim in living room, stage master bedroom, buy new vent covers, deadbolt lock for front door & faucet for kitchen sink!) this 3-day weekend and call her on Monday for pics, sign papers and put a sign in the yard. Yah!

Geez I'm tired just typing all of that out.
