Besides the fact that I'm moving, the other reason I haven't posted for awhile is that I'm trying to sell all my worldly possessions on Ebay before moving (exaggeration)! It's going really well and I'm thinking that when we move, I will start making this my part time business. Besides selling things around the house I've also had success selling things I've bought at yard sales. One of my best so far was a Home Wine Making book that I got for free and sold for $20.50! Another was a new in the box kids Sing Along CD Player that I bought for $1 and sold for over $30! I was thrilled! Since we are moving, I'm trying not to go to any more yard sales right now and it's killing me! I love yard sales and now that I'm addicted to selling what I find on Ebay, it's so hard!
It's been awhile since I wrote. Part of the reason is that we have so much going on! My husband got a job in Ann Arbor so we will be moving our family this fall. It's very exciting for him and although it's exciting for me too, it's also scary since I've lived in one area my whole life. I'll have to find all new discount stores and hopefully grocery stores that double and maybe even (I might be too hopeful here!) triple coupons. My daughter is young enough that this won't affect her too much although she does love to see her Gramma and Poppy!
So we've been looking at homes out there and getting ready to sell ours here. It's actually working out well for us since here it's a seller's market and out there it's a buyer's market. We haven't put our house up for sale yet, since it will go quickly (our neighbor's house sold in 6 days!). My DH has gone out to Ann Arbor to look at houses and will be going out again next weekend.
We actually thought we found our dream house a few weeks ago. It was on the market for 3 1/2 months when we saw it. We went to put in a bid and just the day before they had accepted an offer:( I was devastated!
The other news is that we are expecting a new little one in May! How exciting!
