Update

Well ... life is moving right along! If you need/want encouragement in relationships, visit my dear friend's blog - Helpmate First, but if you want to know how it is going selling half (not quite) of what we own and packing progress - you have come to the right place!

Today - We finished listing our big items to sell on craig's list. Did laundry! Prepared for the moving estimator guy to come give us a quote! Think we are going to stick with doing it ourselves. We started packing Shelby's room at the end of the day! We sold two cars seats, a lawn mower, and had people come look at other items! WOW! And to top it off - my cloth diapers that I used mostly with Shelby and a little with Grant are up to $50+ on ebay. COOL! All of those extra sells help! John also started working on the items he has to get done on the house that we agreed to repair before closing! A few small things - thankfully he is handy around the house! Today our house should be marked "contract pending" - so we shouldn't be showing it any more!

Yesterday - We finished cleaning up the garage from having our garage sale this weekend! We got all of the boxes to be moved up and out of the way. Gave the rest of our garage sale stuff away and took inventory of what we have left to get rid of and pack from the garage! We met with our realtor about the inspection! With that out of the way ... we are on our way to closing. Thank the Lord for a quick process with all of this!

Upcoming dates:
Every day - packing ... I now have 13 days to pack 12 areas/rooms. I will have to update you on the progress!
July 2 - John and his brother, David, leave on Sunday to drive to Nashville.
July 5 - John starts his new job!
July 11 - John flies home!
July 12 - We close on the house. My mom and big boys may head to Monroe.
July 13 - Start packing the moving truck.
July 14 - Finish packing - drive to Memphis (hopefully)!
July 15 - Move into apartment in Nashville, TN

I plan to have some play dates in there some where! My mom should be coming the weekend before closing. If anything changes, I will try to post! Please keep us (me) in your prayers as I work to accomplish this BIG goal! Hope to see you all soon!
