Well I know I haven't been here in a while. We did get moved into our new house. We just got the cable and internet going again. I'm really busy unpacking and getting this place looking like home. I miss blogging and I have a lot to tell y'all when I get back. I should be back tomorrow with a post, I hope.
Hope y'all had a wonderful Father's Day.
Kisses and Hugs from Casa B.

Moving Update , We might be getting somwhere.
So as you all know we are trying to sale our house and move closer to my husband's job. Well yesterday another buyer came by to look at the place. He was a older man, maybe 60s. He buys places to resale, like most the people looking at our home now days.
I got a call from the hubs saying clean the house someone is coming by to look at it. This is ten something in the morning, I'm not an early raiser. I was still in a old T-shirt I slept in the night before and the house was horrible. I rushed cleaned the house and got dressed. As soon as I was pulling a clean shirt over my head the knocking at the door begins.
They came in looked around. Looked around outside and talked for a while in the front yard. Paul ( the guy trying to sale our house for us.) peeked his head in the door and said the man was 99% sure he wanted to buy it. Of course we have heard the same mess before. I said okay and went about my day. The hubs and I talked about it and didn't believe it. We have had a long history of not believe until we see it.
This morning the hub gets a call from Paul saying the man is going to buy it, and asked how long we need to move out. Okay this sounds like yea we just sold it right? Well back to the not believe until we see it thing, he didn't say when we would be getting a check. Until the check it in my hand, yes mine not the hubs, then I will believe it.
My fingers are crossed, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Just About NOT Sold
I wasn't even going to do a F-U Friday post this week. Everything seemed to be going so well. We were about to close on our house and more closer to the hubs job and save gas and have a big fenced in backyard and a extra room for whatever reason and blah blah. And then that horrible person called me back. Okay she's not horrible but she sure did pop my happy bubble.
So to that I say Fawk You happy bubble popper!!!!
So the story is, We were selling our house to this nice old lady. We were even helping her get in by taking money out of the $4000 she was giving us for the house to help pay her 1st month rent. I thought, hey she needs the help. I don't mind helping if someone needs it and I'll be doing a good thing. Everything was set to go down. We had houses to go look at this weekend and everything!
Then this morning I call the nice old lady and she tells me, oh she's sorry but she just had lunch with her friend and her friend was all we won't be able to have lunch anymore because you're moving. So right there changed the "nice" old lady's mind about buying. She doesn't wanna move 30mins from where she lives now.
So there for that horrible happy bubble popper of a "nice" old lady ruined my Friday! Hell she ruined my whole month!
Then after that when down. I call the hubs to tell him and we get into a fight about selling the house. So not only did she pop my happy bubble by not buying our house, she caused me and hubs to fight. NOT COOL!
But we have come to the decision to put the house back out there on the market and just wait. No stressing, no dead lines, nothing just waiting.
SO here we are back at square one. Waiting.

Just About SOLD
Well at the beginning of the week we put our house up for sale. We are now working with a sweet old lady with buying it and getting into the community. The community here is being a pain in the butt, but other than that it seems to be going well.
We are looking at places and have a few in mind. I can't wait to start taking tours of places as soon as this weekend. We have one place in mind that we love. But the deal with it is that right now it's a 2 bedroom, but the owner is working on making it a 3 bedroom. So if we get it now the rent will be a good set price for the 1st year. Then after that year and that 3rd room is added in the rent will go up. We don't wanna have to move again in a year because of the rent going up. So that took that house from a sure thing to a i don't know kinda thing.
I hate the fact I gotta start packing soon. I hate packing, always have. I don't even like packing for a weekend trip or something like that. I always forget something.
So right now we are back in the waiting period. We are waiting to see if the woman buying our place is accepted into the community. Then we have to work something our with our deposit. After that we should be green lighted and moving.
Wish us luck!

Our House is Now FOR SALE
The hubs and I have been talking about moving. There are many reason we feel we kinda need to. One, we are paying over $100 a month in gas for the hubs to get to work everyday. Two, we're not to happy with the area we live in. Three, all these storms that's been coming through have scared us and we want something that makes us feel safer.
It wasn't a big thing until yesterday. We started looking at places to rent closer to his job. We own our house/mobile home now. But we wanna rent for now so we can build our credit and we just aren't ready for another big commitment. And with all that, our house is now for sale.
$6,000 or best offer. We put up a post at the community board and a post on CraigsList.org. Check it out. If your wanna living in the Conyers area pf Georgia let me know.
I'm kinda scared about all this. It's really the unknown that freaks me out. I don't like not knowing when we'll sale and where we'll go from there. I don't really wanna move closer to the city. I hate the sound of the air planes and traffic. But we will be saving a load on gas money.
I'm trying to look at it like a new start. The hubs and I have had our problems. And maybe this will be like a new start for us. I'm crossing me fingers. I hope we can get moved before the holidays. I would hate to have the stress of holidays and moving on my back.
Wish us luck with all this. It's just a new journey for our little family.
XOXO
