Well, i am back and feeling a bit overwhelmed by......EVERYTHING
Don't get me wrong, it is all good.
Our family, who's mantra has always been "Bloom Where You're Planted", is returning home....being "re-planted" so to speak. I still can't believe it sometimes.
But being in Portland last week, visiting schools for my girls, made it REAL.
My "to do" list is long:
- Meet with yet another real estate agent {no offense to realtors out there, but I strongly dislike the sales techniques of many realtors, borders on used car sales-like tactics!}
- Meet with the movers - allow them to do a "survey" of all of our STUFF.
- Clean/de-clutter for photographer coming to take pictures for the MLS listing {oh, don't you worry, I will link when we hit the web!}.
- Fill out school applications for the girls.
- Oversee big girl's essay writing for her school applications.
- Begin REALLY cleaning out closets.
- Get Minnesota house listed by next week.
- Workout {I must not let moving get in the way of taking care of me}.
- See local friends (it is so cold in Minnesota and I can become a bit of a hermit}.
- Make sure my girls are handling all of this ok.
- Welcome hubby home on Friday!
Love your site! I follow all the time and love to hear about your adventures! I sell homes here in Iowa and used to sell/live in Minnetonka...let me know if you need a suggestion for realtors! Happy to help!

Baby steps Jill! Sometimes I get so overwhelmed when I think of all I need to do. The key for me is lists, lists, lists and sometimes not looking at the whole scope but just concentrating on what's right in front of me.
