Well my friends we are here, in good ol' Cedar Park, TX. The move overall went smoothly, we had some great friends and family help us load and once we got here they helped with the unloading so it went quite quickly. The move up until you entered the house went well... I can't express my shock once I entered the house and the condition that it was in. There is nothing worse then moving, and working hard to make sure that the house you leave is in tip top shape- and assuming that you will be walking into a home left in great shape for you to move into, then to move in to the exact opposite. The home had the wonderful odor of a lifesize ashtray which at this point in my pregnancy, the stale cigarette smoke makes me want to hurl. The guest bathroom looked like, man I can't even explain it without feeling nauscious, basically it wasn't fit to be used. The tub and toilet were the most disgusting things I have ever seen and can't believe that the home could be left with so much "evidence" of the previous resident. Yeah that is a good way to put that, EVIDENCE :). As far as cleaning goes I realize that some might not have the obssession that I do and that is something I can live with. However, when my girlfriends and I have to have an affair with a bowl of Pine-Sol to clean the house to even a living state, that is TOO FAR. It was just very dissapointing to work so hard (and yet be 6 months pregnant and SORE as can be since the only heavy thing I have lifted in the past few months might be 2 tacos at a time instead of one :) ) and be so excited that the hard part of cleaning and detailing is done to get to the "heavenly land" of your new home and see that it is worse then hell! What is even more sad is that most of the cleaning I have done just took a little scrubbing and stuff came right off! So that to me shows me that there was absolutely NO EFFORT and that it was left as if that was acceptable. I will stop going on and on because believe me this could turn into a very lengthy story lol!
Overall just the extreme sense of peace and completion being back home and around our family and friends is such a great feeling I am still overwhelmed with the sense of "YOU COMPLETE ME" :). It is so weird to me to also have to re-familiarize myself with the area as well! So much has changed! We are so happy to be here though and to be back together as having a "weekend husband" STINKS! I hope to see everyone soon! Here is our new address!
