FoR sAlE...

...my house that is :) I know, I know...all the work we have been doing lately to make my home more colonial and I am selling it. What am I thinking??? Well the reason for this is because of a house that hubby and I looked at 3 years ago is up for sale and at a more reasonable price.

It's a bungalow with a bedroom and bathroom in a upper loft. Perfect room for Tabitha, the growing teenager. It's perfect for my little family!!! Everything that I need is ALL on the main level. Eventually I will not be able to continue living where I do because the main bath and bedrooms are all up on the second level. We knew, that in the future we will have to move. Why not now??? Here's a pic of the house on the outside...it's soooo cute!

It sits on a very large lot, has a garage and it was built in the late 40's. Everything inside is still original...oh yeah! All the trim work, hard wood floors and I will be able to even have a pantry :) Something that I have dreamt of. Imagine some pretty colorful flowers in front, color shutters and someday we would change the siding. I HATE white, I am more of a color girl :) It's located right downtown, walking distance to everything that I would need. Even the girls are really excited!

We have listed our house and keeping our fingers crossed for the sale. All I have been doing is dreaming of this home. What color of paints to use, the different changes and so on. Something good to keep my mind going. I need this right now...dreaming ;)

Something very important was suppose to take place next week and sadly it has been put off to June. So I am having a difficult time and this is what has been keeping me away. I saw the Dr two weeks ago and he changed my medication but sadly, it's working for the worst. So hopefully by next week, my old medication can be given back to me, at least I didn't experience so much anxiety and crying with the old medication. I just wasn't' sleeping, the reason for him to change everything. But I sure can handle no sleep then all this crying.

The next big news, a couple months ago, hubby was offered another job. He went and met with the owner and had a short interview. Sent in his resume and that is where it stayed. We never put any more thought into it. Until Sunday, when the phone rang and the Owner asked Mike for a second interview Tuesday. 'Oh boy' is all we could think. He went for his second interview, everything he asked for was given to him that he asked for. Last night we were both a bag of nerves, not helping me to much mentally right now. But this morning hubby made his decision and is taking the new job. Not because he hated his other job but because this new one has so many things to offer that his current job does not. He will have a pension plan, medical/dental plan and in a few years can become the Owner himself.

He was working for a private owner, which he loved but now will start working as the Ass. Manager of the Canadian Tire Store. For you Americans if you do not know what this is, it is one of the largest Hardware Stores in Canada. More in Mike's domain, since they sell alot of similar things that Mike sold at Sears. The only difference is, he will be in charge of 50 employees. He's never been in charge of such a large staff. He will do good, another change but he feels very confident.

It was very difficult for Mike to tell his boss today. But his boss understands that we need to look out for our family and for the future. We are still young and need these benefits that his current employer can not offer.

I am also taking a step forward, hoping to make changes in our law system. I am meeting with our MP, Mike Allen on Friday. I am hoping first steps to making changes with the current law system that we have. I will keep you posted on this...

So ladies, right now, my plate is full and I am a bag of nerves. I am so thankful to have a awesome husband like I do and two really wonderful daughters. My little one, keeps hugging and kissing me all day long. She has so much love to give and just melts my heart.

I will keep you updated on all the new changes and keep you fingers crossed that I get to sell our home. I want that other house so badly...there's so much character that I want to bring out in it.

Until next time...
