Today is the 4th of July and I am posting to this blog from the basement apartment of my cousin, Debbie in Russellville, Arkansas. My house sold and I closed on the 20th of June and was outta there the same day. Jason and Fe'de came and helped me pack up and then Keri and Chad and the boys came and helped me finish the job. I couldn't have done it without all of them.
I took pictures around the outside of the house as I said goodbye to an incredibly wonderful home. At one time it WAS a great home...full of love and laughter. However, it did become just a house. A nice house but still, just a house. I am hoping that it will once again be full of love and laughter with the new family. After a few days in Louisiana helping Keri and Chad move, I headed for Arkansas. The cats (Callie and Izzy) and I arrived in Arkansas on Monday. I have been able to visit with mom each day and have started looking for an apartment for my temporary stay here. It was difficult finding a place that would accept a short term lease AND two cats but I think I have found a nice one that has just been built. It has a pool and fitness center and lots of extra stuff. Now I just have to figure out what furniture I need to buy and what I need to move from the storage buildings in Alabama. It should be fun decorating and picking out stuff..
It is wonderful being able to hug and kiss on my mom again and help take care of her needs. I must add here that I really REALLY miss all my friends in Alabama and our routines....water aerobics, going to coffee, the movies, lunch, etc. (I know....... I have only been here for 4 days and am already ready to hit the road again! ha ha) I can hardly believe that I have actually sold the house and have moved out. Another milestone ;-)
I don't have an actual address yet but should soon. The email address and cell phone number will stay the same. I will keep you posted.
God Bless You and God Bless America!
