Exited? Terrified?

 Kind of equal measure of both?

Hahahahahaha

(kind of)

So, the house build is progressing.

We now have a full ceiling and the

wall going into our bedroom!

About all he has left is the mud room

and the kitchen.

The guy is a machine!!!!!

And it's a good thing, too!

Because THINGS ARE HAPPENING!!!

1. Sabrina gave her notice.

2. Jim rented a moving truck.

3. Jim bought Kyle a plane ticket to Orlando.

For May 1!!!

They get the truck on May 7 until the 14th.

Which gives them a couple days to

load it and a couple days to drive.

(And gives Kyle several days to CHILL

in FLORIDA.)

Expect BEACH pictures.

(Plus he plans to do some door dashing 

while he's there and make some $$$)

Meanwhile, he will be GONE for about

10 days, so we need to be at a place

where we can

a. MOVE

b. Divide and conquer?

One of us might need to stay at Kyle's house

so the animals can be fed, etc.

And one of us might need to stay here because

Beau can't do the stairs at Kyle's house and 

if we don't have the fencing done, Luna and

Bandit also need to stay here.

But those are decisions for another day.

My anxiety levels just can't handle it today.

Meanwhile I've been on the phone with

MULTIPLE different "service" people at

Citibank trying to close an IRA.

I've been trying to close this account for

TWO MONTHS.

Sheesh. It's $3000.

How hard should it be???

I finally got someone who actually seemed

to know what they were doing and who

CARED about the person on the other

end of the phone.

We'll see.... I'm not counting my chickens

just yet...

But there are 8 dozen eggs in the freeze dryer.

And clothes in the clothes dryer.

And I'm getting ready to run to the farm to

pick up some eggs (since we ate the last 2

this morning...) and also check the soil temperature

in the garden to see if we should go ahead

and plant???

We are expecting one more cold weekend.

in the low 30's Friday and Saturday nights.

But if the SOIL is warm enough, the air temp

doesn't matter that much as long as there is

no frost, and hello Kansas wind.... 

frost is pretty rare here.

Anyhow.

We are SOOOOOO excited!

(And SUPER anxious.)

This is a BIG leap of faith for these guys.

Fingers crossed.

Having family close together

(even if we starve... lol)

trumps everything else.

We will make it work.

We always do.

But.... woooooo.

The heart palpitations are REAL.
