ugh moving!

I have decided that if I never move again it will be too soon!! Last week we finally got into a place and man what a trip to get here. We moved from my in laws to an extended stay hotel in December and then out of that hotel to my moms for one night in August first. From there to a place in Morrisville PA for one night. the neighbors complained to the landlord about the dogs barking. Uhm they are dogs, dogs bark duh!! Then a friend and her mom offered us a place to stay until we found something else. It didn't work out there. So after a week and a half we went to a red roof in for four days until we could move into the place we found. So after five moves in less than three weeks we are officially residents of Carteret now. We are still looking for living room furniture and and a small table and chairs for our kitchen. we need to find some bedroom stuff for my daughter as well. The dogs are settling in and my parents and sister are relieved to not have the little squawk boxes anymore (my love birds). Macie wants to keep the snake there at my parents and my dad agrees since she looks "cool" and is quiet. a long with this move Mike and I have decided that we are fed up with cigarettes. I have been for a while cant stand the taste the smell or the expense. So we ordered the electronic cigarettes. I am doing better than he is but then again he smokes more than I did. We are still using the fluid with nicotine in it but it is a lot less than what we were getting smoking. So we are on a journey! Today was Mike's first day of not really smoking. We smoked one cigarette each at my moms house this morning and then my battery died on my electronic cigarette and my back up battery was in the truck and me being lazy did not want to go out and get it. I did not for that matter want to go buy cigarettes either lol. So tomorrow should be interesting with neither one of us using a tobacco product!! I found that after a while with out the e-cigarette I was getting crabby so I went out and got my battery......
Just had to add that I am sitting here watching extreme home makeover and crying my eyes out over the shear selflessness of this family in Arkansas!!
