We were on the most rockin' float ever

Well, at least for the Athens Fair.

What our lives look like

We have been living in this room for 5 months. Ugh...



On a lighter note, Bubs is 8 months old today! Today we join the CSA float in the parade. Hopefully pics to come.

Ugh

House is still on the market. I would be more frustrated about it but it has been shown to prospective buyers on average of once a week. It is just going to take the right person.

Trout has a job interview today up here. Yippee! He seems excited about the job and he has applied for half a dozen more. The only reason why I am able to post a little update is because he is still sleeping with the baby. Bubs likes his mama attention during the week and my boy is not a napper. The only times he will sleep is 1) in the car 2) after a looooooooooong stroller ride 3) at an inexplicable time and place that is never to be repeated.

Since I have this free time and wireless connection I finally had a chance to catch up on my blogs. My my have some of you been busy. It has been kind of fun reading and being shocked by life events or giddy that some events are still moving full force. I've also been inspired, inspired and inspired again. I've cried for what is sometimes a painful reality and difficult decision. But I thank you all for being better at blogging than I.

I'm also not going to lie. I am depressed. That makes it hard to find the motivated to talk about anything. Our situation is old. We've been here almost 5 months and little things that I can't do with my family is starting to get me down. I wanted to hang diapers out on the line. I wanted to sit outside on the porch late at night with my husband and listen to crickets while the baby slept. I expected us to have our own space, continue decorating Bubs' room. Most of his possessions are in storage. I'm realizing I can live without 3/4 of what I own. I miss my husband and he is missing out on his son's development. It is the last part I feel the worst about, especially since babies hit different milestones so quickly.

Ugh, it felt better to get some of that stuff out, even if it was on the blogosphere. I don't really have a good sounding board to talk about the above.
