Happy Friday!

This was a big week.  On Tuesday, my mom left rehab and is finally home!  She'll begin out-patient rehab for 3 hours, 3 times a week.  Lots of hard work but she's had such a great outlook.  She's been in the hospital for 3 weeks and yet she was always happy when you talked with her and really positive.  I don't know anyone else who would have fared so well.

We also put our house on the market on Tuesday and already have a showing scheduled for today!  Know anyone moving this way?  It's so bittersweet.  We're excited to move to Ohio for all the good things that will come with that but we are SO bummed to be moving out of our beloved house.  We got in with the builder before it was built so we got to choose EVERYTHING.  We love our house.

House hunting in Cleveland isn't going so well.  Since Bill's work schedule will be insane and even when he's home he could get called in at a moment's notice, he wants to be within a reasonable driving distance to the hospital.  That really limits the areas we can look in and unfortunately, the houses in those areas are OLD.  Think 1920s, no AC, detached garage, radiator heat and creepy, creepy basements.  They all have converted third floors too, which might sound nice but not when you're having to duck because the ceiling is angled for the roof line.  Most of the bathrooms only have tubs (no shower) on the third floor too.  Our spirits are low but we've only been to look twice and have seen about 26 houses.  We'll go again in another week to see a few more.  If we still can't find anything, we'll just rent for awhile.  Since we'll only be in Cleveland for 6 years (that we know of) we don't want to settle on just any old place because we'll have to turn around and sell it.  I guess we'll see.  Wish us luck!

On a side note, Bill and I got a babysitter for tomorrow night - DATE NIGHT!  We're heading to a restaurant in another town that we've always wanted to try.  This is going to be a great weekend!!
