For those of you that I don't communicate with more frequently, I've been feeling that it is "needful for me to obtain another place of residence". Being an apartment manager can be hard work and for the past several months it has become quite stressful, especially as my children need more and more attention.
So I quit. I've been looking around for places to rent, in particular houses or duplexes, and just a few weeks ago we found a place with in our budget. Of course, the move corresponded with a previously planned vacation, so I wasn't really involved. But thanks to my most amazing Hubby and his parents, the kids and I came home to a new house already unpacked. Am I lucky or what!
I sincerely hope that by removing the stress of managing from my life I will be more able to be a better person, mom, wife and friend. Wish me luck! And look for future posts about gardening in a YARD!!!

A journey of self-discovery as a woman, wife and mother. Oh, and lots of baby pictures.
About Me
- Fromagette
- When my daughter was born in September 2006, life changed dramatically. After a while, I realized that to be a good woman, wife and mother I needed to rediscover who I was and what brings me joy in this life. So, bring on the good, the bad and the cute (the kids, of course).

Congratulations!!!!!! Good for you! Hopefully this will bring you a lot of peace and sanity.
Good luck! How exciting!
You have a yard!? That's wonderful! I know you like to garden. And wow...a move without having to do any of the moving! Lucky...lucky...girl :)
I'm so jealous and we miss having you guys so close but I'm really excited for you guys!! A house with a yard must be so nice!
Are you sure it was the stress of managing? You haven't given me your new address. I'm beginning to wonder if you had another motive. . .
OH dear!! Did you stay in the ward?!!
Belky, we didn't move that far, just a few blocks, so we didn't change wards. I was very careful to only look at houses within our ward boundries!
Elizabeth, I'll give you our address the next time we talk. :)
Did Adam know that you were moving? Boy, do I feel out of the loop! I'm happy for you though. I don't have the stress of managing apartments, but I'll be equally happy to have my own yard to garden in.
Way to go. Everyone needs to a job change every now and then. At last it won't be nerve-wracking to hear the phone ring.
I can't wait to see pictures!
Oh, hooray! I hope things will be more peaceful for you... and that does sound like an ideal move! We are thinking of moving again this summer as well to save some money, but I am so tired just thinking about a third move in two years... at least this time it won't be across country! Lol
Hey, didn't know if you saw, but you are the winner over at Word Joust! Congratulations!
