The past few weeks have been a whirlwind for me and mine.

After 13 years of living in the same house – the same house my mom lived in from the time she was a teenager until she married my dad, and my grandmother lived in until she died, which we purchased several years later – we decided to sell and move.

And it happened FAST. We made the decision on October 15th and between then and now, we've sold our house, bought a new one and MOVED.

We have a few last minute things to take care of at the old house this week, then we're handing over the keys to the new owners. It's so surreal and strange, especially for my kids since they've never lived anywhere different.

I had some amazing built-in bookshelves that were built by my grandfather when he and my grandmother lived in the house. I'm sure going to miss them! (And many other things, of course)

But now I have a BOOK to finish!!
