The realtor is coming

I finally did it! I called the realtor to come out to the house and get the ball rolling. By this time Wednesday we shall have our house listed for sale. As before and always, I am praying for a quick sale.

I have packed most of the living room already and am going to move on the the kitchen next. Of course right now I am just packing the things we definitely do not need to live for the next 6 weeks. Chris is taking all of his clothes and shoes up to D.C. in the RV after the race this weekend. Right now the R.V. resembles an arms cache with all of his guns and rifles in it. It will really help declutter stuff around here to get all this stuff packed up. It is kinda sad putting the house on the market after putting all this time and energy into cleaning it up. I really wish we could just keep this house, but that is definitely not a possibility (not with the price of living up North).

Tomorrow is a busy day as I finish packing the RV for Chris to transport north and pack all of our stuff for the weekend at the races. The boys are so excited. Zeke asks me every day how many more days til we leave for the race. I cant wait to see Caden's reaction to it all. Hopefully the sound wont bother him too much ( he will have hearing protection ), because I would hate to have to spend the entire race weekend in the RV alone with Caden.

This has been a successful week with Kadiy, the mastiff, as she has not left the yard once in almost an entire week. YEAH!! Unfortunately Pravda, the 15 year old Siberian Husky is not doing well. I think she is just worn out. Fifteen is a long time for a Husky to live. Her sight seems to be completely gone now, and I believe her hearing is deteriorating as well. Although she seems perky when she is up, she seems to spend a lot of her time in a kind of daze. She trips on everything and sleeps a lot. The worst is, no matter what I do she cannot kick this ear infection she has gotten over and over again for the past 6 months. I am worried about moving her to a new place. I am not sure how well she will take it since she never has liked change. It has taken her months to warm up to each new house we have moved to. Now, she will have to find her way around, blind, in a new place etc. . . Sometimes I wish the God would just let her fall asleep one night and be done with it, so that I don't have to make that decision ( I have already had to make that decision with 2 other dogs ). Then, I think of how awful it will be to have to find some way to dispose of the body etc. . ., because it would undoubtedly happen while Chris is not here. Oh well. Things will work out one way or another.
