The move to our new home...night before close

Natalie (aka Pinkypie) was out of school for another day today. No goop in the eyes and they are really clear. She goes back tomorrow. To say the very least- when it rains it pours. Everything and anything stressful has surrounded our move. From almost not being able to close because of a screw up at the government (imagine that right?!), to Natalie and her pink eye- work is bananas being at the end of the month and fiscal year. All amongst calls about scheduling appointments for the wedding- and a grandfather in the hospital. sigh...but just like Bryce says- it will all work out. There's no need to stress.

I did get a small amount of packing in today- and got to spend a great deal of time with my mom and daughter- just the girls altogether- laughing-yelling at each other- being cranky- thinking about when Natalie was a baby- or what we will put in the new house- and how excited Natalie is. I thought to myself riding in the car back as they were laughing at each other singing Toes in the Sand (yes Natalie got mom to sing it-- or at least the yeehaww at the end)- this was a great time- one that I wont forget what I did the night before the close of our house.

The mere fact of the idea that tomorrow I will sign the dotted line on a 30 yr mortgage scares the shit out of me. I have worked hard to recover the last 1yr and almost 7 months. I have so much to show for it too. Because there is no longer an I- its a we. I have someone that is so supportive- and when he knows I need it- he is right there behind me- whether its to catch me- guide me or to give me a pat on the back. We are so lucky to be moving into a beautiful place that our family will call home.

Pete and Kimmy came by for an awesome visit-- I always wish they can stay longer and hang out. We talked about invitations, the move and pickup time for my dining room set- MY DINING ROOM SET-- yay. I havent seen it in forever and all the pieces will fit in my dining room.

Its all almost surreal. I still keep thinking that I am going to wake up and say- damn that was thee best dream ever.
