now we just 'live'

It has been a bit of a strange week. Last Sunday night I was still doing odds and ends and cleaning in preparation for the realtor and her photographer to come and take pictures so our house listing. Monday was also a whirlwind, because I worked until 1PM (as usual) and then still a couple odds and ends before they arrived. They came, pictures taken, some things moved around, lots of activity.
Then it hit. Monday night there was "nothing" to do. Its very strange, because for a couple months it was always go-go-go, more stuff to get done. Taking a break almost made me feel guilty, cause there was work to be done. But now its done!
Okay, there have been 4 showings of the house so far, so for the last bit before we leave there is that 'rush' through the house to ensure tidiness, but now that the house is listed, keeping tidy is part of every day living! Its even hard to start some other projects that I might normally do in my spare time, because some of those would make a mess, or at least not be things that are over and done with in 1 evening, and I can't have things laying out.
Its a bit hard for me, and us, and our personality types to have "nothing" to do. But, its still easy to have the evening gone in a flash! For me, between reading blogs, working on my own entries (many of which never seem to get posted, ugh!), chatting with friends and many other things, the time passes relatively well. For Jeff its programming. Soon I hope we are back to work on a project together, maybe not a construction one (I could do without all the clean up for now), but hopefully a programming one. The game we were working on, for example, would be nice!
But all in all... things are good! Been out of the house some, because of the people looking at it) which as put us together doing different activities, including a lot of hiking. Good conversation, exercise, enjoying nature, what's not to love about that!?!
