Times They Are A-Changin'

It's been a stressful few weeks at casa Tschoepe. I would get into details but they're boring and frankly if I have to think about it anymore my head is going to explode from the stress. Suffice it to say Kent's work situation is suddenly extremely uncertain. With me not working we really have zero wiggle room and all of our savings just went to homeowners taxes. We're going to try to sell the house and move somewhere much smaller and at a price that's in our new smaller budget. We've only lived here for 2 years and we owe almost what it's worth so we'd have to somehow come up with a lot of cash at closing to be able to sell it. So yeah, stress.

The exciting part is that we are no longer stuck in Texas because Kent is no longer tied to his job. So the plan is for Kent to try to find a job in Washington or Colorado or Utah or somewhere else that has a lot of natural beauty and isn't 500 degrees in the summer. He's even looking in Vancouver Canada which truth be told has managed to trump my 20 year long dream of living in London.

This, however, makes me forget all my troubles.

I got 4 long and blissful hours of straight sleep last night. When E finally woke up to eat around 4am he was so hungry he kept trying to stick both of his fists into his mouth at once. I'm getting more and more used to getting up, and more and more used to going on much less sleep. The best part about late night feedings has got to be the late night TV. Did you know that Kathy Griffin's show Life on the D list is on at 3am? I've also seen Wings re-runs and the X-files is always on although not always on the same channel. Kent says he gets up with us to keep me company, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it's the infomercials.

Eventually we're going to build a site just for E's pictures, but until then you'll have to be subjected to the cuteness on this here site.
