Ketchup...

In no particular order...

We will be meeting with our new Real Estate Agent (REA) tomorrow to look at comps, and probably to sign a contract, putting our house back on the market. So back to the grind of keeping the place "show ready" ~ and the hubs is already whining about it ~ but still with the shiny prize at the end of the stick ~ getting the F*** out of this hell-hole...

Spring is finally ~ FINALLY ~ beginning to show her face around here! We've got tulip and daffy-down-dilly shoots coming up; new growth on some of the roses, and we've been able to open the house (windows) up a bit lately ~ YEE~HAAAAAAW!!! I put out our blue ceramic pots on Sat.; ~ I'll still wait a bit to plant them out as our night temps are still a bit chilly ~...

Artistically ~ my 7th SARK ATC has come to a close; I'm getting ready to send all the goodies out in the next day or so. And I'm super excited about Swap # 8 ~ 'SteamPunk' & 'FreeStyle' ~ I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with in these categories!!

I'm working hard on the niece's wedding album ~ I'm about 2/3 done, and I really want to have it finished (if not to them) by their second anniversary!

Re: my life-saving trip to Los Osos (CA) 3/17-22 ~ it worked, though not in the way I'd originally anticipated...
It was, of course, awesome to meet up with my dear old friends... but it was my NEW friend I met up with there who made all the difference in the world...
Where I'd thought I'd only wanted quiet calm, she showed me how much I'd needed a very girly, VERY giggle-ly riotous time, too!
Yes, I had my necessary solitude ~ but she gave me the gift of laughing harder and longer than I had for a very long time!!
So between that, and the chance to show off my beloved central coast, it was a fabulous get-away...
Big hugs to you, KT ~ ya rat fucking bitch ho' bag slut!!

And our vow still holds... What happens in Cali STAYS in Cali!!! ;-)))

What a welcome change signs of spring are! Our first crocuses are blooming now, as is one hardy pansy.

Good luck with the new REA, and the whole processing of having your house on the market again. As you said, the long term goal is worth the aggravation.
