Home.
My tummy hurts.
My head hurts.
I have to be up in... too few hours.
But I'm home. Whee!

Just fyi, will be moving this weekend. Have been busy with (pretending to be) packing, cleaning, etc.
I know I owe a few words here and there, I promise to catch that up asap... will try to get something in the works before the move, but if not, for sure after the weekend.
... yes, I'm moving again. Argh.

So. I can't remember who I've mentioned this to anymore.
We went and looked at a house over the weekend. Older place, it's a cabin that's been converted to a year-round home. Hardwood floors, huge farmer's porch on the back. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms. The rooms themselves are small, but that's not a big deal. We don't have any furniture anyway.
Kind of a weird story. The people who live there now are buying a house, and need to sublet this place. They only had their ad in the paper for three days, with no one calling on it. They decided to take the ad down, just have a realtor find someone. We happened to have an old paper, called the ad.
We went and looked, got to talking to the people. Turns out, they're god-parents to the kids of this guy we know pretty well.
All these weird little coincidences. I was fairly sure by that, that we'd have no problem getting this place. Too many things were falling so neatly into place. We've been having trouble finding a place to rent, because we have pets. More pets, harder it is to find somewhere to rent.
So we got a call last night, saying that the owner was fine with the dogs, and they just needed to work out the lease agreement. Providing it all goes well, we're going to get this place. I'm so, so glad. Living with in-laws? Gets old, fast. And it's way past 'fast'. The only real downside is that this place is heated with oil. Could be a very expensive winter. Ugh.
So, whee! We could be moving sometime in the next month or so. But on the bright side? With no furniture, it's pack a few boxes and throw them in the van. Two trips, tops.
Now it's just a matter of finding some decent used furniture. Here's hoping.
