It's 5 a.m. Turns out this is the only time I have had to update you all since we purchased "Wanda the Wildcat" on Tuesday. As soon as she was in front of the house things started to move at the speed of light! Normally, not an issue but we still have work, a "normal" life to attend to and I'm on crutches and recovering from another ACL surgery so Alan is doing the lion's share of the manual labor. We are both exhausted physically and emotionally but still so excited to start this journey in a couple months. We are pushing hard to be out of this house in 10 days, (AHHHHHH!) and will spend the last month of school out at "the ranch" in Franktown in order to save rent. We are blessed to have patient in-laws who will let us park there!
So many friends from school and all over town have come to help us out. We couldn't do it without our Jenny, she is here every spare moment to pick up where I can't help out. So many people have helped in so many ways, we are eternally grateful to you all! From listening patiently while I have a mini break down at work to putting price stickers on everything in sight, I am blessed to have a community of friends in Castle Rock. The boys are really excited, especially to move out to "Pappa and Gramcyns". Jacob is showing a few signs of stress here and there but they are coping well overall. Seeing all of their stuff moved out to the garage sale was unnerving until the tallied up the total they would have for their "coming home" fund. Both have planned numerous sleep overs in the next month or so to get in some extra friend time.
No doubt about it, this is the "not so fun" part of the adventure, but I have faith it will all fall into place, and I don't say that lightly. But for now, I am going to try and grab a few more minutes of sleep before the garage sale!
