OT: Busy, busy but back!

Talk about hectic! In the last 2 weeks I've driven over 4200 miles, looked at something in the order of 70 homes, put an offer that is about to be accepted on one, gone to Mississippi to help my DMIL buy a new TV, DVD/Tuner for her home, held an open house, recruited 2 new members into my TLC business and have a couple more potentials...and yes I even managed to scrap a paper bag album with my buddy ML one afternoon while in FL, which I gifted her with.

From time to time I have managed to read a couple of messages, but basically I was going to bed at 2am and getting up at 7am to look at more homes.

So the deal is that we are going to move to Florida mid-may or earlier. We had people come and visit our house today that though of it as being the perfect floor plan and it woule seem that they are looking to move right away...so who knows! I may have to move Rick into a hotel, and pack up and go in a couple of weeks.

Meanwhile, this weekend I am hosting Deb's Stamp camp, next weekend I am Flying to NYC and staying there Sunday through Thursday. Kate if you have time, I'd love to take you out to lunch somewhere on Monday. If there is anyone else nearby like Dorothy who can spare the time, I'd love to meet you too!

I come back home on Thursday night and leave Monday for Mississippi to help with the prepartaitons for my DSIL's wedding on the following Saturday, April 8th. Once that is done, my schedule will depend a little on when we sell this house, but it looks like I have to be in Tampa for the closing on our new house on April 21st. Of course I'm supposed to go to the TLC convention in Salt Lake City the weekend of April 28th and then something I'm really looking forward to the following weekend, meeting everyone at the Barn!

So here is hoping that you will all forgive me if I'm not online a whole lot. Just getting everything scheduled right now is a challenge! I am however going to start working on my 6x6 pages for the Barn swap tomorrow. I do have some things in mind and I am hoping to stay within my stash and the things I bought while on the road last week.

Hugs to all, hope I didn't miss too many birthdays and hello to all the newbies!

But at least now you have a house in FL picked out. That's progress from 2 weeks ago. :-)

Sounds like you are running your self ragged! I'll say prayers the couple that thought the house was the "perfect" one follows through! At least you are making progress. Don't forget to take a few minutes each day for yourself, even if it's just a bubble bath.....you need some time each day to destress.

Kool, I hope to have a big scrap party this year as a housewarming... so all you FL ladies, be on the lookout for an invite. I can't wait to see all of you I have already met again and meet all of you I've only visited with over the internet! It should be a hoot!
