Has it really been one week since my last post? Since it was a Works for me Wednesday post, maybe we can just pretend that I wrote that post today and just throw away the week I was absent 
This time, however, I actually have some shiny, happy, GOOD news as the excuse for my absence. You probably know that I have been trying to sell my house for *quite some time* with two really heart-breaking “almosts” of almost being sold and then falling through at the last minute. Well, it’s not sold quite yet, but I am happy to report that we are under contract again. There’s a few reasons why this time it seems very likely to happen, but I guess because I’m a pessimist (or should I not be so negative and say ‘realist’?) at heart I am still trying to keep my guard up.
My very ADD ways have been making it hard to focus on much else than a (hopefully) impending move. I have so much junk, stuff, etc. and of course every bit of $ helps in this time, so I am trying to list some stuff on ebay, pile other stuff for a yard sale and so on. I also have a few paid projects (like my blogging for the Golden Inn) that take precedence over my “free” blog–yeah, believe it or not 
this site doesn’t really rake in the bucks–so that’s where my head is at right now.
Just as another update, in case you didn’t know, the Silicon Valley Moms Group, which is the parent of the Philly Moms Blog is closing their doors at the end of this month. I have really enjoyed writing for them for the last few months and I was just starting to get connected more with some of the women involved in that group so that has been a sad shock for me. The Book Club is actually continuing at a new site called From Left to Write, so I will still be involved with that, yay!
So all said, please pray for me! I called my brother last week almost at the end of my rope about how I just cannot live here any longer. Then this happens so fast and when the buyers would like to close coincides with some time where we are down at the shore and it is just such amazing timing…:deep breath:…that I’m nervous.
That’s all. Back to irregularly scheduled programming soon!

There’s nothing worse than really needing to move & have difficulty selling a house. Our homes should be places we run to happily, not places chaining us to locations we no longer wish to be in.
You are in my prayers, may the closing go smoothly, without incident!
I am very happy to hear this and I feel this is it! The Lord works in mysterious ways doesn’t He! I know things will go smooth sailing for you, just stay positive. Yay, don’t you love when things just fall into place!
xoxo (positive sprinkles coming your way)
So happy for you – I’ll say a prayer it works out this time
