Mile Long Check List

Between work and life I’ve got a check list a mile long. A lot of it is the last minute things that have to be taken care of when buying a new house. Lots of phone calls, connecting people and making decisions. Schedules are tight and things are back and forth at a rapid pace.

Add to that traveling and work deadlines and it makes for all around “fun.”

So if you don’t hear from me or if I’m hard to reach that is probably why. Just so much going on until we get in the new house.

Tonight is Family Night as it’s the last night we’ll all be together in this house ever. The kids go on vacation next week and will return to the new house. Once Laura gets out of work all technology goes dark. We are not even going to answer the phone. Just all of us spending time together cuddling, laughing and being a family. They are my life force and what drives me in everything I do. Some people lose sight of that, but I refuse to ever to. It is easy when it’s always priority number 1.

    Hoping to do the same once I get on the plane this afternoon. Have a great weekend- good luck with all the house stuff- and Glad you know what is most important in life- that is what makes everything else work.

    Make sure you have a goodbye party! Kelle Sparta suggested it as a way of helping kids and parents make the transition to a new space - have a goodbye party, take lots of video, talk about memories built in each room, etc. I think it’s a terrifically healthy way to say farewell to a place deeply rooted with good memories.
