Less than 30 days

We are officially within 30 days of moving into our new house- YAY! The day can't come fast enough. Contractors have been working hard over the past week to get the house ready for a July 1 closing. They've painted the brick, painted the outside trim, put up gutters, painted the walls inside and the trim, finished the tile around the tubs in the bathrooms and finished all the shelving in the closet. It really looks like a house. If only the air conditioner were installed, I would totally take a pillow to sleep there!
The paint on the brick is a darker cream, cafe type color. The gutters are chocolate brown and the shutters will be mocha brown.



Other non-house things going on...I officially found out that I will be teaching 6th grade English next year. I'm really excited- I can't wait to be in the classroom again! And I LOVE my new team- Joanne, Crystal and Kristin, amazing teachers. I can't wait!! I also started doing a bootcamp-type workout with Joanne. Last week was our first week and, um, let's just say I could barely walk all week. It feels good when the soreness wears off and I think it will make me feel healthy and have more energy for next year. No pain, no gain :)

This past weekend my mom and dad partially moved into their Oxford house. It is a wonderfully calming home. They moved in a bedroom set, a few sofas, rocking chairs and the kitchen table. Of course Dad brought lots of DVD's and books for his office. I can't wait until they are here permanently!
That's all for now. It is time for bed...another day of bootcamp tomorrow!
