Chasing rainbows?

So one post and I disappear for two days! Well my excuse is that we had the call..... Someone wanted to view the house, Friday was spent tidying said house to within an inch of its life. The kids were packed in straight jackets for Friday evening and Saturday morning :)

Dh worked from home on Friday so we also jammed in looking at a couple of potential houses for us. The first would need updating and eventually extending but has heaps of land and is close to where we are which is great. The second, huge house but the garden floods every winter so no use to us. Both require us to sell ours so no point getting too attached.... Our journey so far is complex, somedays I really do wonder if we are chasing rainbows, you can't catch a rainbow, when you get close they move.....

The journey started when we accidentally found a house, we weren't really looking honest. Anyway we put ours on the market. The other house sold we carried on. We then sold ours on the first viewing, found a amazing house to buy and things were going well, until our buyers split up, the house we were buying is now sold and yet again we carry on. We are ok where we are but to be honest would like a spare room and a bigger garden. Spare room due to us filling the two spares we had with dd and ds, careless I know :) our family don't live local so visits now result in beds being moved about. Watching my 70 year old dad climb into a mid sleeper was comical but highlighted that something needs to be done....

The whole process has really been teaching me to appreciate what I have, even when things have fallen apart I still have a family who love each other to bits and a place to call home which is warm and for the main meets our needs.

Anyway the people viewed, apparently my kitchen lacks natural light, hadn't noticed myself but on
we go!

So that's the house saga, quite enough to bore you to tears but it's good to have it down on "paper".

Time to get on with Sunday, love to all that read and please feel free to comment :)
