Lots of Catch Up

Do you ever live in the 'toooooo much' of your life!  Well, that's were we've been living for almost two years now! Where do I even begin...I'm thinking point form might be the best option! ... I'm so sorry, bear with me as I unload...and it's all good....just sooooo much!!!!

• Moved Dean's parents four times in the past two years...7 months of that was taking dad to the hospital to see mom each day ~ they are now together in a wonderful personal care home.
• Dean went for a complete shoulder replacement surgery due to unbearable pain caused by arthritis in his right shoulder ~ the left will be replace next year sometime!
• Moved Marc and Chars to their new location in North Vancouver!! Beautiful location!!!
• Little Lucas was born in February ~ grand baby # 5 ~ oh where has that time gone!!!

• Moved our dear friends into their condo...and I love their new location and lifestyle!!
• Marc & Chars announce the arrival of grand baby # 7 for us in January 2014!!!
• Went to Convention in July and had the time of my life ~ what a wonderful experience ~ Dean & I road tripped it to Utah and had the BEST vacation EVER!!!
• After Convention, Dean surprised me and I flew to North Van to spend a week with Marc & Chars...30 minutes into my time in Vancouver, my SU backpack (from convention) got stolen out of Marc's car...ID, Credit Cards, Laptop & iPad....why did I leave that in the car????
• Andy & Andreas baby arrived on Oct 24th ~ Grandbaby # 6...oh...and a girl!!!! was born on Oct 24 ~ oh my, what a sweety ~ 5 boys and one little Katie!

 

• In the midst of all this...add the emotional roller coaster that I've been on for about a year now ~ Dean's ability to keep up with our little acreage and pool in the summer and the shovelling in the winter has made us come to the conclusion that a complete lifestyle change is in order!
• We are SO excited for condo life and have purchased a new unit yet to be built...projected date is December 2015!
• So now...do I continue with Stampin Up or not...can I do this when living in a condo...we are moving into a two bedroom (which will be a guest room, NOT a creative corner) 1400 sq ft from our 4000 sq ft bungalow in the country! YIKES!!!
• So needless to say...I have started packing/purging/selling!!!
