so chuck has abandoned me to go to indonesia...

just kidding :). but he is leading a trip there for our church now. he left last thursday night and he doesn't get back until this coming monday morning. i don't like not having my husband around. i basically cried from thursday night to monday morning... think that's pathetic? well i'm pregnant. still think i'm pathetic? bite me. i realized yesterday that i hadn't checked the mail since he left... b/c he always checks it! man, i've got to do everything around here now! every time rachel hears an airplane she starts talking about daddy, and she'll take my phone and pretend to talk to him. it's pretty darn precious. but monday definitely can't get here soon enough...

in other news, we're selling our house. our house payment went up and medical bills are on the way, so we're saying goodbye to house-owning and hello to seminary housing-renting for a little while. i've been super busy de-cluttering our entire house (which was no easy job, especially when you tire as easily as i do these days) b/c a photographer is coming tomorrow to take pictures and put them online. i'm currently taking a cleaning break b/c my back is aching and i'm short of breath from vacuuming all the rooms. i accomplish things much slower when i'm great with child. so now we'll have to forever keep the house clean and presentable in case someone wants to come wander around in it and perhaps (hopefully) buy it. i'm kind of excited about moving though. we've been here 2 1/2 years and i feel like i need a fresh start.

so that's the news. i'm clean and lonely and greatly anticipating 6:30am monday morning when chuck walks through the front door.

Hang in there. Next week Rob is leaving me for London. Three 6- month deployment and he still can't handle being home with me!
