this is just how we do things....

In two weeks this is how it all happened....
Monday evening...."Honey, we need to sign our lease here for another year by the end of the month"...hubby, "find us another place, I want out of here"...Me, "o.k."...thirty minutes later, early evening, storming outside, I google homes for lease in our area and it sends me to craig"s list...
Me, "I found a place that looks kind of interesting"...hubby, "let's go look at it"...me, "it's gated, we can't get in"...hubby, "sure we can, I can talk my way in"....so we head over to see what the house really looks like , both in our pajamas!!!  We talked our way through the gate and the house is adorable....
Tuesday morning we set up a time to meet with the real estate agent that is managing the home...we loved it...we told her we wanted it...
Thursday we left for Baton Rouge to watch Tennessee almost beat L.S.U. but really we went to see CAndy.
Drove home on Sunday...we got a call from agent saying it was a go, we got the house...spent all that week packing up....Friday,  the movers come and take all of our belongings to the office warehouse to store because this place we rented is furnished...which is kind of weird but I'm getting over it...Saturday morning we left for Athens to once again watch our team get beat...we stayed in Sky Valley Georgia...we played golf on Sunday and then drove home through the mountains on Sunday....Monday we moved in!  Whew...makes me tired reliving it....my body is still exhausted, getting too old for all of this...but glad to be in such an adorable little home ....I can see sunrise and sunset...I can sit on the upstairs balcony and hear that ping of golf balls being hit...three minutes to the interstate, 35 minutes to the stadium...it was a very positive move!
