Ready for Suburbia

Turns out that living in an Airbnb for a whole month with your entire family is not so much fun. My dogs are freaking out. We are sharing one bathroom and I will scream if one more person cuts me off in the Minneapolis traffic.

The city is fun, but I can see why people want to live in the suburbs. We move October 2nd into our new house and it can not come soon enough. I am sick of the traffic. I am sick of my family all being on top of each other. We NEED space. lol. The one-bathroom situation is driving us all mad. Dad you done yet? I need to pee! I hear almost every morning. My older Aussie barks any time someone leaves the building. He is very territorial and thinks the entire complex belongs to us.

It. is. stressful.

Thank God I am not working this month. I cannot even imagine throwing a new job into the mix right now. It SUUUCKS. I am so ready to be done. My husband comes home exhausted and cranky from trying to run what seems to be the worst store in Hyvee history. I want to be mad at him for not being more happy to see me. But he’s just exhausted and I see why. It just sucks. We need to move. We need his store to get better. A lot of the employees haven’t been trained well. The store is only 2 years old…
