Chapters in my life

I finally through my hands up and decided it was time to sell my house. I wanted to wait things out for the house market to start looking up but in the process I feel like I am drowning. Between keeping up with everything here in Mobile and also trying to keep up with the house note, utilities and everything else that goes with it in Jackson is becoming hard. Not only trying to keep up with everything and making sure I get bill for everything but it has become hard financially.

(Thankfully, one of Ashley's friends from church is living in the house right now. Basically renting out one of the rooms from me. This is a help because she is also paying part of the utilities and gets someone at the house so it is not sitting empty.)

Anyways, I finally decided to eliminate some stress in my life. I have been on a decluttering, destressing, closing chapters theme lately in my life and this is another chapter that needs to be closed for several reason. Some I have shared and others I'm not going to share for now.


So what do I do from here.... Work on a major to do list and get myself nice and motivated for next week. My realtor (Julia Hill - the one we used to buy the house) is trying to make things so I don't have to make lots of trips up to Jackson from Mobile. So the current plan is for me to get everything together and ready at the house to put it on the market the Friday after Thanksgiving.


Here are the kickers....

- I am in Mobile, the house is 200 miles away in Jackson.

-When I moved down here I only brought some of my stuff and have only been back to the house two or three times since June to get a few more things.

- BJ moved out of the house taking his stuff.

- Which leaves the cluttered mess that is currently in the house.

- This includes a pool table (anyone interested in buying a pool table! Is a really nice one with slate tables instead of the cheap pressed wood tables)

- I have to pack up clean up the house to put it on the market when I get home Wednesday (and I don't know yet when I will be up there on Wednesday so time may be VERY limited) then Thursday is Thanksgiving so I won't have much time to get anything done. So time will be a valuable thing.

I'll keep everyone updated on the house situation. Hopefully and prayerfully things will go smoothly for me and this Thanksgiving break will not be so stressful that I am unable to enjoy time with my family.

Where does the time go?

I keep writing post in my head or find things I want to blog about but when I sit down at the computer nothing comes to mind! Terrible!

I started my job with Liberty National Life Insurance. Things are going pretty well. Honestly I wasn't sure at first but things are beginning to look up. I finally got my first paycheck!!!

I've been having my moments of frustration over getting the divorce final. Too much of the her lawyer/his lawyer mess for me. Way more than I care for sure!

I have so many things on my to do list but can't seem to get motivation to get any of the things completed. I sure can seem to add more things to it though!

Got to run for now but I am gonna try and make myself post more soon!
