…until we get the moving truck!  Tony is actually counting down the hours until he is done at his job out here.  He will be with the same company when we move, he just CAN’T STAND the people that work for him out here in South Florida.

I definitely have to say I am now a pro at moving.  Even with 3 kids I feel I am WAY MORE prepared this time.  I am all packed except half the kitchen and the kids toys all over the living room.

I have even begun the “cleaning process” when you move.  I still have the rest of today and all day tomorrow to finish up.  Hopefully by Monday morning everything will all come together.

Tomorrow will be a good day because Tony sold his Buick. He has been trying to sell it for about a month.  We put an ad on Craigslist and someone called earlier in the week and said he was really interested.  The Buick is mostly for parts, it has a bad-ass engine but if someone wanted to actually drive it, they would need some tires and to do some serious clean up on the inside.  We are going to end up getting $500 less than we wanted.

Here’s the way I see it though.  If we don’t sell it then we have to tow it out to our new place, 5 hours away.  We will need to spend another $100 just for the towing equipment and then spend more on gas from towing the car.  See we have the explorer and the moving truck ( I will drive one, Tony will drive the other) and then we have Tony’s “play” car….the one he is working on to make it FAST!  VROOM-VROOM!

So I would have to tow one car and Tony would have to tow another if we kept the Buick.  Not only would we be dishing out the extra money  to get the Buick to our new place, then if we keep it, that’s more money we have to put in to it.  If we sell it out by our new place, who’s to say we will get the full asking price.  So I will take the money the guy wants to offer us.

Selling the Buick=more crafting supplies for me!  I see a win-win situation….for me that is. LOL!  Just kidding, well not about the crafting supplies but about being selfish with the money.  There is a good deal of money in saving for Tony to use on his “play” car.  So I get some fun too, right?  I have been trying to get my online business going and get a bunch of Stampin’ UP! products since I am a demonstrator now.  So I have been spending some money on that but Tony agrees with all the money I have been spending on that stuff.

Anyways, so Monday morning we will pick up the Budget truck rental bright and early at 8:30am.  Tony will drive home and begin packing while I drive to Nicki’s school and submit her paperwork for withdrawal.

I am hoping to be done loading the truck by dinner time so we can get some take out, watch some TV and call it an early night.

My cousin is driving down to South Florida from Tampa as we are driving up to Tampa so we may meet along the way for lunch.  I have not seen her in OVER 6 yrs.  We have both had 2 kids since the last we’ve seen each other.  She actually just had one like a few weeks ago.

Well off to play with my kids, Lil T is having a nervous break down because I am not paying attention to him.

**Don’t forget to get in on my GIVEAWAYS they start tomorrow!!!**
