It’s been quite a while since I’ve had any down time for blog time. Due to my dear 3 yr old vomiting 10 minutes before we left for church this morning I’ve found myself at home instead of teaching Sunday school. I’m a bit disappointed as this was the first Sunday in a long time that I had the three kids, my husband and myself fully dressed 30 min prior to departure time. (Perhaps thanks to the time change)
So here I sit trying to decide which of my life’s recent interesting and amusing events to share with you. I’ve had a lot of blog worthy happenings but thanks to said events I’ve had no time to share. Here are a few:
Life Changes:
Kurt has been offered and has accepted a great new job. While he will be working for the same company he will office out of Amarillo, TX. Thus a move is in the future. We currently own our home and will need to sale/rent it before we can relocate. (Anyone interested in a 3 bed 1 ½ bath brick house with an attached garage and a big back yard? For the low low price of $57,000)
We are planning to move to the Amarillo area as soon as our house is taken care of. I would prefer to live in Channing, but housing is scarce in such a small town. If anyone has any contacts or info on housing in Channing or Amarillo/Bushland give me a call or leave me a comment.
Two Vehicle Family:
With Kurt’s new job he will be traveling quite a bit and with our new location one vehicle just won’t cut it for this family. We spent all of yesterday looking for a second mode of transportation. While we came home empty handed we were still the victors! With all the high-pressure sales men we still walked away standing our ground and not settling. We refused to spend above our budget or to buy something we didn’t want. While on our search where did we stop but at Bobby Duby Motors. (Remember, I talked about their commercial earlier this month) George Jennings was quite helpful and polite, a fresh breeze compared to the “hot air” we’d dealt with most of the day. I stayed in the van as Kurt and George discussed the Chevy S10 that had been sold the night before, there sat the very vehicle we had searched for all day, right price, right amenities, right everything except we were a day late. While Kurt stood there looking longingly at the pick up he could not have, George came over and asked if my last name was ——-. Well yes it was. Why? He had received my email about Joshua dancing on the van and singing “Duby, Duby” and had followed the link to my blog. Whaha, I have been recognized, hmm does that get me a discount? Wouldn’t matter anyway since Kurt’s darling S10 belongs to a nice man from Texline.
Broken Camera:
In honor of the many changes of our life I got my hair chopped off. Shorter than ever before, I wish I could show you a pic but whoa-is me my camera is broken. I feel handicapped without my camera; I am surrounded with Kodak moments every day. Each time I don’t have a camera to capture the moment I feel like the memories are slipping out of my hands.
