A friend shared this song on Facebook on Saturday and I've been listening to it on repeat ever since. https://youtu.be/B9FzVhw8_bY
The Great Move: Best Laid Plans…
We had a plan for whenever the house finally sold. The plan was that I would fly up to Washington, look at homes with our Realtor, put in an offer on one, and then come back home and start packing. Well, a couple of things made that plan impossible. Firstly, Boyo was going through a … Continue reading The Great Move: Best Laid Plans…
A Dangerous Game…
I have found the magic pill that makes my lungs behave. It's called Zyrtec and it's a miracle. With one tiny pill, there is no more wheezing, no more coughing. And I finally have something resembling energy again. I still don't have time to write due to the crazy three year old running around, but, … Continue reading A Dangerous Game…
Music Monday: Possession
My good friend and BFF, Jewel E Leonard, released the second book in The Witches Rede on Saturday. Titled Possession, it picks up shortly after Alight left off. Maeve is recovering with a family of strangers, while Raf is off looking for a place to build their lives together. When Alexis stops by to check … Continue reading Music Monday: Possession
The Great Move: Ten Long Months…
The moment our home was listed, our agent immediately started getting calls. By that weekend, we had our first viewing. And within three weeks we had our first offer. It was a nice couple from Canada who were really excited to hear the cows that sometimes wandered through the canyon. And we were just as … Continue reading The Great Move: Ten Long Months…
In Search of Success…

I will be noticed by the right people. I will be more successful. And life will just be perfect. I'm sure … Continue reading In Search of Success…
The Great Move: Finding an Agent…
At first we were going to try to sell the house ourselves. Mobile homes don't earn equity at the same rate normal homes do. In fact they usually loose equity. So the odds of us making a profit was pretty small - even with all the improvements we had made. Also our mobile home was … Continue reading The Great Move: Finding an Agent…
Bumps in the Road…
I'm sorry to go MIA so soon after resuming posting again. Some of it is because I'm still adjusting to the Boyo's new school schedule. He's home on Wednesday's now, so we spend a lot of time at the local parks trying to wear him out. Some of it is because shortly after we moved, … Continue reading Bumps in the Road…
The Great Move: Research…
While we knew Washington was where we were meant to be, we didn't know where in Washington we wanted to go. So we started researching; where were the best job opportunities for John? Where was housing the cheapest but the neighborhoods were still good? Where were schools with good preschools? And where were all the … Continue reading The Great Move: Research…
The Great Move: Why Washington
Back in 2013, John (my husband) and I went on a little road trip with some friends up to Washington to visit their house in Gig Harbor. John was looking for work. The company he had been with for over a year had let him go because the owner of the company wanted to hire … Continue reading The Great Move: Why Washington
