Yep, that's right, you read that right!
We are moving!
Where to?
Maryland - and exactly where - Laytonsville! Another adventure cross country, although this time, it's not for Jason to go back to get a degree or anything but for a VP of Data Science job at a Fortune 1000 company - Radian.
Sunset in Rockville, Maryland Sept 2021.
So, here I sit, writing a quick entry after months of being blog inactivity lol well, except for the two posts I just did about going to two concerts lol
Last night my wonderful group of friends from my ward and neighborhood threw me a girls' night farewell! How on earth I kept it together, I don't know. It got a little dicey there at the end when Summer was leaving. I think these next few days until we move on Nov 12th I'm going to get a little wet under the eyes!
I will miss my friends here so much, (Seren and Carys too) I hope and pray I will be able to make new ones - the kids too (although heck! I'm flipping 51 next month) and last year my big 50 was crap as I had the stupid Covid -19 and ended up in the hospital! That's a whole other post to write about. One I haven't bought myself to write about yet. So, this year I won't be near any of my really good friends :( meh!
Back to moving - Here is the house :) When we finish the rest of the basement it'll be 7552 sq ft and on a and 1/4 lot :)
It needs updating as it was built in 2002 - and our current home here in Utah was a new build and way more in keeping with what Jason and I love. So, remodeling will be happening, new Kitchen, bathrooms, painting, removing carpets, laying new carpets, refinishing hardwood floors, and laying new hardwood and tile - which means - Shopping! Woohoo :)
And BREATHE!
So, for us, a new adventure will begin in 17 days! Seren and Carys are excited about moving which at first I was taken aback - cause I fought back at first lol but nope, they were great about it, esp, when they saw the home we just closed on and the swing set out the back garden lol
And get this, Jason's brother Mark, is buying our current home! How awesome is that and my daughter Ashton will get to stay in her room here until she finds a little apartment before her wedding in April! Oh yes, Ashton is getting married! Can you say, my year has been rather nuts, also I ended taking a trip back to Wales too in Aug to see my dad (he :( was taken into hospital * he's making a good recovery now but the reason for me getting on a midnight flight was my dad wasn't in a good way! So, yes, a very nutty year for me lol and I can't say where's my chocolate - I've already eaten one bar of Cadbury Twirl today! lol
So until, I'm somewhat settled in our new home - till then, wish us all well on driving cross country again :)
