Finally For Sale!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our house is finally for sale! What a long, hard journey. We signed with a great realtor on Saturday, Kim Hermann from Keller Williams. We just know she's going to do a GREAT job. She put the lock box on the door, and the sign goes in the yard tomorrow. She asked when we signed, are we bittersweet about it? Are we sad to go? That's a big NO! We are ready. We've talked about this for over 2 years, then did all the fixing up just to sell it. We can't wait to get into a new house! Anyone know anyone who would like a beautifully remodeled 4/2 in Citrus Park??? :)

Feelin Good

I know it's weird to feel good on a Monday morning, but I do today. :) It's cool and sunny, and I'm sitting by the window enjoying both. My house is neat as a pin. Dinner is already going, laundry too. I had a trip to WSD Saturday and saw good friends and got a much-needed creative jolt. Had a GAO (like a GNO, but in the afternoon, lol) with little crazy girl yesterday, shopping for her Halloween party stuff. Talk of another mini-getaway to the GA cabin in Nov. Anticipating teaching classes again in Dec. Planting some pretty red flowers by my door. House is on tonight. Just a medley of wonderful things. Yes sirree, I'm feelin' mighty good today.

A new career?

Just took a Career Assessment webinar. My top 3 stregnths are: Artistic, Literary and Clerical. The webinar leader said I "may want to consider a career change into graphic design or something related". Too funny. :) How weird is it that it was so dead on???

I'm already starting to work with two people on their wedding invitations, and hopefully will start teaching classes at Whim So Doodle again in December. Talk about satisfying my artistic side! Can't wait!!!

Great Quote

Saw this on Ali's site, thought it was great.

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.

Don't Stop Believin'

Saw my fave band for the 6th time Wed night in Orlando...what a show! Night Ranger (Sister Christian, Do You Dream About Me?, Sentimental Street) opened, they were better than I expected. Then Journey hit the stage and I was in heaven. They did all my faves, and I had goosebumps everywhere. I got my 5th Journey concert t - it has a stop sign on the front, with Don't and Beleivin' "spray painted" above and below, with the words to the song on the back. Man oh man do I love that band. And guess what? Steve does too! He went with Michael and I. On Michael's right was a 60+ year old couple, then us, then Steve - 3 generations of Journey fans!
JOURNEY ROCKS!!!

We've got GEORGIA on our minds...

We are having such a great time in Georgia! The cabin, "Goose Rapids", is in Ellijay, GA. It's amazing and right on the Coosawattee River. The sound that river makes is unbelievable, I need a CD of that noise! Yesterday we went to Amicalola Falls, it was beautiful but very strenuous! SOME of us (poor little ol' me) was so out of breath it wasn't even funny - but the view was worth every bit. We were going to go tubing today but they said the water is a bit too rough from all the rain. Guess it's the antique shops downtown instead - cool! I'll post some pix later today, we have so many it will take awhile to upload from the camera to the PC (yes, I'm known to get just a little picture happy.)

We definately have GEORGIA on our minds!!!

Almost done...

We've done SOOOOOO much in last couple weeks! We have installed totally new kitchen cabinets (white, they look fantastic), new flooring over the entire house (a light maple, makes the house look much larger) and new blinds in every room. I'll post some pix soon - it doesn't look like the same house at all (thank goodness!!!)

Should be done by next Wednesday - that's when Michael & I leave for our "finally-done-with-the-house" celebration trip to GA.
