So this is my current map! Driving to Texas added 3 new states.
We are now in Texas. Got here safely without any problems. Ender did really well on the trip, slept most of the time so he wasn't really good company for me!
Friday night the 22 we left our home in Idaho at about 9, 9:30 at night. We drove to Utah and stayed with Michael's parents. Saturday we left about 3pm and drove to Denver CO. where we stayed in a hotel, Ender liked the hotel because he had his own bed! Sunday we got on the road by about 11 am and drove to Dumas TX. where we stayed the night. We got to Dumas early enough to relax, eat, and for Michael to watch the football game. Monday we left before 9 am and we got to North Richland Hills TX about 3:30 in the afternoon.
We got into our place...we are calling it our "newlywed" apartment. It's about 40 years old, but it looks older, I'm sure that there is about 50+ coats of paint on the walls and ceiling, but then again, maybe that's what is holding this place together! The square footage of the place is really why we got it, since we were down sizing (again) we needed the room for storage. And the price for the square footage was really good compared to other places.
We got an offer on our house the night before we left, so that was very good news. Now we are keeping our fingers crossed and praying that things go smoothly and that a closing will take place at the end of October. Jill Baird is our agent, and has been doing an awesome job!
Well my brain is still pretty mushy with all that has been going on, so if this doesn’t make any sense…well, sorry.
More later!
