Matthew and I ended up falling asleep while I was trying to play Harvest Moon on the Game Cube at about 1:30PM or so. At about 2:45, I started waking up because it was getting noisy outside. I thought there were military planes flying over so went back to sleep. At about 3:15, it sounded like whatever was making noise was on top of the house. I woke up and opened the blinds and a big yellow helicopter flew over the house carrying a big red bucket. It stopped at the sod farm that is behind us and filled the bucket with water. I woke Matthew up and we watched the helicopter for a few minutes but didn't see any smoke that would indicate a fire. Looking more closely at the farm, I saw the red lights of a firetruck. I got up and got online and found out that there was a fire right behind our neighborhood. Since it was so close, we took pictures of our house to get somewhat of an inventory just in case. (I should post them as before pictures for my decluttering project...)
I decided to go to my Mom's and ask her some questions about when we can move to Jacksonville. Apparently, they are willing to tell the person renting the house to leave whenever we decide we're ready to move since he's been trying to get out of the lease. This is fairly good news and I went ahead and applied for three HR jobs in Jacksonville today. Looking for a new job is probably the worst part of this whole moving business. I hate the thought that I will have to tell my boss of nearly 10 years that I'll be moving away and not working for her anymore. I also hate the thought of interviewing. *twitch*
Matthew called while I was at my Mom's and told me to come home because something was blowing off the house due to the high winds we've been having and he needed me there so he could climb up on the roof to fix it (so I could call someone if he fell, I suppose) I got home before it fell off but he couldn't fix it because our roof is so steep so, it fell off anyway. :(
