Moving Latest

Everyone should know by now we're off to Florida. I wanted to put an update up about where we're at, how we plan to get there and all that good stuff. We have our trailer, and have gotten rid of lots of 'stuff' we don't want to bring with us, though we have plenty more stuff to get rid of. The trailer needs a bit of work, but we plan to be done with it in the next couple of weeks. We need a brake controller added to the truck, and about 3-400 bucks worth of work done to it. Jeremy plans to come up and give a hand with some of it in the next few weeks. Our budget is solid, and we should be in a good position to have a place rented as soon as we get there, though we'll probably take a week or two to spend looking for the 'right place'. I'll be going to community college bout July 1st, and we plan to be in Florida the first week of June, so we have a few weeks. Only thing that may throw that off is if I get accepted to University of Florida. Summer session for UF begins a few weeks earlier. If I get in, we'll have a little less time to spend getting there and finding a place. We're waiting for my finals to end to move.. about May 25th. So we plan to hit the road between then and June 1st. ----- We went to Camryn's baptism today. It was nice to see everyone. It's pretty rare these days that people seem to get together. Everyone is so busy it seems, and I think that kinda sucks. I can't say much about it though, me and Jeanann aren't any less guilty. I do hope with all the extreme changes we've been making that this move to Florida will help us stay focused on the things we feel are important. I'm happy we finished our bankruptcy and have a plan to get back into establishing our lives in a new way. It seems so many people are facing some of the challenges me and Jeanann have this last year. I feel like we've dealt with it early, so we'll have a little edge getting back into the game above some who are facing 'the shiz'. Our goal is to be 'on top of the pile of shiz' in the next year or two so we can own property again and settle ourselves for the first time in our lives. We're excited. We're both risk taking crazy people, and this is another big questionable adventure. It'll be sad leaving the Evans side here on the West coast, but I look forward to being closer to the Wren side. At least the Evans will have a bigger excuse to plan Disney World vacations. If each sibling can find a way to make that trip every 5 years, we'll get to see a part of the Evans family every year while all the kids are growing up.
