What's coming up for you? Exciting plans? Trips? Family expansion? (weddings and babies!) Not really resolutions, I just want to hear about where people are going!
Baby J (due at the end of Feb) and the Match are tied at #1 for biggest things going on in our lives. Having a baby in 4th year has been our plan for YEARS and I feel like we've been obsessing about the Match for just as long. It's crazy that they will be just a few weeks apart. And will change our lives so much! On one hand, we could get to stay, meaning I keep my job, we get a huge income bump, and I can start settling into this house for the long haul. Or I could end up being a SAHM or telecommuting in a new locale as early as June!! (not necessarily a bad thing, just hard to wrap my head around how different the options are)
Usually I'm a little depressed when Christmas is over, but this year I cant wait to get the decorations down and GET GOING. I'm about to dive into some house projects (stuff that is either needed for resale or can be taken with us) and am nesting like crazy. I went to Ikea last week, bought 2 shelves and 16 baskets, put them together 95% by myself, and am getting rid of the clutter! I'm about to go through the entire guest bedroom and get it ready as much as possible for Baby J. I also am about to go through ALL of N's winter clothes from the past 2 years to sell. Thank goodness for interviews that will get DH and N out of the house for a few days while I go nuts!
I'm not looking forward to the heat of summer, but I do love spring. It's going to be such an exciting time for us this year and of course I love severe storm season
I haven't really thought about life post-July. Which is weird for me--I always have a long term plan, but there are just too many variables to even try and think about it now!
