Moving Diary: # 7

Where have I been?! Not accomplishing much apparently!

Well, in a way, we have taken a break from packing and moving preparations. We are still house-hunting--looking in the papers, internet and talking with the Realtor. Tonight we drove by a couple of places. One looked pretty promising but we'll see. We are in the market for foreclosures. Our current house was a foreclosure and that investment strategy has worked well for us so we are looking to repeat the same process again. Hopefully we will have good success both times.

We have lived in our current home for seven years. The next one we plan to only own for only a couple of years. Then, buy our "permanent" home. I put that in quotes because, well, you know--nothing of this nature is ever certain-sure.

We have had relatives visiting since last week. First my side of the family and now Steve's. We are enjoying their visit and a little break from the packing and boxes!

I'll get back to my 'diary' before long, no doubt. In the meantime, if you're wondering, we're doing alright here!

We always have a good and crazy time when relatives visit. :) Hope you had a lot of fun and talked them all into adopting. :)

Haha! Actually, our visitors are Steve's parents who are in the process of adopting three girls! The girls are with them here. Ages 8,9,and 10. As you can imagine, our house is full and the kids are having a blast!!

Well... That certainly goes a long way in explaining why you have been scarce these past several days!

can you move to Langhorne Pennsylvania? I want you to be my neighbor. I've got kids that would be perfect for your kids!
