It is now up in the air if we close on our old house on Friday. We will close on the new house, but due to paperwork and relying on others to pull their head out of their...anyway. Needless to say, we would LOVE the money from the sale of our current house for the sale of the new one. The buyers are coming tomorrow to do a final walk through, we just found out yesterday. Our house is trashed. Boxes, piles, dust, oh my! I hope they are not expecting to see the "perfect" house that they walked through last week. I gave up on cleaning when the dirty moving boxes were drug out of the garage and landed on my freshly vacuumed carpet. Yes, I told Jeff to wipe them down, but you know how that goes. I really can't complain much, since he has to do the brunt of the work.
My attempt at giving up negativity for lent has not quite worked out, so under the circumstances I thought I would give up alcohol and sushi. I have had a prolonged lent. Seriously, since October and until July I will ignore my cravings for a dirty martini with olives and a perfectly pink slice of sashimi. I suffer, I really do...that MUST count for something.
Side-note: Jeff works from home and has embraced the dressed down, really down work week. The other day he had to go in for a presentation and Claire asked where Daddy was going. I told her that he was going to work, she looked up at me thoroughly confused and said, "But he is wearing a shirt!"

I love reading your blog. I check it out all the time hoping for new posts!
I hope you don’t mind --- I’ve been telling all my friends about your blog.
I printed 100 free business cards with my 10 favorite websites (yours was #1!!) and handed them out at our last Mommy Meet-up.
It made me wonder if you had ever done that for yourself? Do you ever meet anyone at a coffeeshop or a playground and start talking about blogging? Maybe you could print up some cards to hand out. Just an idea!
In return for inspiring me, I wanted to pass on these money saving tips to you:
-- 100 Free business cards at www.RedTagPrintSale.com
In case you decide to get something else printed from them (besides the FREE business cards!) I also wanted to tell you about their unlimited use promo code - it never expires and you can use it again and again:
-- 10% off promo code “RTPS10”
FYI: I’ve used this company to print fliers and signs for Church events and even yard sales. The quality is really good compared to what I’ve gotten from VistaPrint and others that offer FREE business cards.
I hope you have a great week. I’ll be checking back soon. Bye!
