Day 40 - What now?
So, I woke up this morning and realized that I threw my lower back out. Could it be that I slept wrong? Could it be from limping for two months? Could it be stress from school, pain, kids and moving? Who knows? All I know is it hurts super bad and that my hip pain is back to exactly where it used to be. I'm taking the maximum does of pain meds and I'm tired, frustrated and angry.
This morning we went to look at a house. It had everything going for it except the inside of the house! Fantastic neighborhood, great location, perfect size, in out price range, beautiful exterior, yard and deck and then you walk in... I'm not saying it was a crap hole or anything but it was like stepping back in time to the late 80's and no updates had been done - ever. If we were buying the house, we'd jump on it and we'd fix it up and upgrade it and it would be wonderful. But, as renters, we can't (and wouldn't want to) do that, so we passed.
We still have six weeks to decide where we want to move so I'm not worried. We are already looking at a few more houses this week. Ethan's checking them all out online and talking to a ton of people. Our goal is to move back up to the Bellevue area and be able to be longterm renters in the house. I'm also willing to sacrifice space if the price is low enough so that the kids can go to private school but we'll just have to see.
I'm nearly caught up on homework today. I have to read one chapter and a hand-out and figure out my thesis for my rhetorical argument. And Lost is on in 15 mins! I'm glad I'm nearly caught up though. It feels good.
