September to Remember

On September7th, we signed a contract to sell our Houston house. Florida is one step closer.

Bye Bye Gillette St!

On September 8th, we left for Hawaii. One of the most beautiful, wonderful, amazing, exciting, unique, friendly, relaxing places I've ever been. Truly fell in love.










On September 17th, we got home, reunited with our favorite wiener dogs and stepped into the reality of packing, finding a place to live and moving across states.

Mom? Dad? Are you over there?
Lonely, so lonely....

On September 20th, we submitted an offer on a condo on Harbor Island in Tampa. It's a foreclosure and there are multiple offers, so fingers crossed for us. Hopefully we will know whether or not we get it in the next day or two.

On September 22nd, I officially finished my job. Welcome to the world of unemployment, Cor.

Fajitas & shots of jager as I pass the torch to my replacement at lunch on my last day. Nice send out, boss man!  

On September 26th, I'll pack up the dogs and head to Florida. UF Career Fair - please be good to me and make it worth the 14 hour drive! Bonus - FLORIDA/ALABAMA game day! Woohoo!



On September something I'll fly back to Houston to finish packing.

"Don't forget me!!"

On October 14th, we officially close on the house. Welcome to the world of Homelessness, CoJo.

Our future?
Meanwhile - John keeps up the routine of flying to VA for work each week. Sometimes though, as George Michael says, "Ya gotta have faith".  We know it will all come together in the end. :)

  1. I'm sure something will come along on both the house and the job! I'm in the same position, but 1 month behind you! I'm heading back to Jersey on the 30th of October. I'm going to stay with Sue and Ron at first, till I find a place. Wim will follow once we get all his visa stuff taken care of. Good luck - and your quote is true "ya gotta have faith"! Love you!
