Recap in less than 5 minutes!

the pool!

 Well, let's see if I can do a recap of what has happened since I last wrote a post (9 months ago!).

We moved to a brand new build house!  I wrote about that on my last post.  It was perfect and gorgeous and everything we could have wanted! Until we didn't want it anymore....more on that later....

January - started working hard on our other house we had just bought - a cabin in the mountains! I'll dedicate an entire post to that another time.  But in a nutshell, we closed on it right before Christmas and got to spend the holidays there with my family.  It is in the North Georgia Mountains, something JD and I have always dreamed about having.  We bought it as an investment property for short term rentals. 

February - I got to travel to Frankfurt, Germany for a few days and had an amazing (but rainy) time, came back at the end of the month right when 2020 really startedto get interesting.

March  - I started allergy injections to try and curb my allergies.  Still getting those shots every now and then and maybe it's working??  Started pool construction!

April - I became a teacher.  Not really.  Teachers are amazing and I take back anything and every complaint I've ever had about a teacher.  Truly, they are angels!

May - Our cabin officially hit the rental market and has been booked solid ever since!

June - it was a blur...our pool was still under construction, like so many things delayed by COVID, this was one of them.  But it was done enough for us to swim in.

July - S turned 11, we were so grateful that we got to have our annual beach trip, and JD and I celebrated our 9 year of marriage!

August - was hoping that school would start...it did not...and we decided to sell our most amazingly new house that we loved so much!

September - POOL FINISHED! Just in time for our move!!  We were even on a YouTube show for our pool! I'll link it in a future post. 

Ok, so that pretty much sums up the last 9 months.  So much has happened, the time has been a blur, and I really think 2020 is a time warp that wasn't supposed to have been found.  But here we are. In all honesty, I can't complain.  We have been very blessed. We haven't been sick or even had any family get sick.  We haven't lost our jobs.  We haven't lost our homes.  If you fall into one of those categories, I pray for you and the ability to keep going. 

Keep an eye out for future posts - I owe you one on the pool...the new house...and the even newer (but actually older) house!
