We’re Moving!

We’re moving!  This is the main reason I have refrained from scheduling any shoots as I mentioned last month in my post.  These past 2 months have been so crazy, stressful, and just blah at times.  In case you didn’t know, house hunting sucks, especially when you have a long list of must-haves: acreage, privacy without being in the middle of nowhere, high speed internet, decent cell phone service, LOTS of room in the house (full basement was preferred), not at a stop sign, not on a major road… the list was long.  lol

Houses were selling so quick, we weren’t even getting the chance to go look at them before they went under contract, and a lot of the ones we saw lacked some of the major must-haves (like high speed internet), or the houses had issues and had been on the market for a while.  But FINALLY!  We found one that hit all of the check marks – except acreage (it could be a tad more private as well).  We really wanted a minimum of 5 acres, but we’ll be getting 1.5.  I’m okay with that because Shish & I are already in love with the area!  We cut it close too… we literally signed the contract for the new house with no time to spare, making our current house and future house closing dates the same day.  If we had found something any later, we’d be in trouble as to where we’d live (in between closing dates) since we have to be out of our house by a certain date.  So yeah, major stressful.  Let me throw in the fact that our real estate agent drove us INSANE and is a terrible driver!  There were days we would be stuck with her for 5-10 hours, driving around to look at houses.  I’m so thankful she didn’t kill us in a car accident before we were able to find our new home!  She literally stopped in the middle of the road to look up something on her phone; ran a stop sign; thought on-coming traffic’s lane was her turning lane, thus getting into the wrong lane… oh the list goes on.  She wanted to point out all the “moo-cows” we saw on the back roads too.  Guys, you have no idea how mentally draining she was!  She really needs to retire.  It’s time!

I am hoping to start filming again at the end of August or beginning of September, once we have everything settled and can find stuff again.  lol  Most of my shoes and boots have been boxed up, and all shoes size 8-11 in the model closet have been boxed as well.  Shish has boxed up all the boots in our model closet, so finding anything for customs right now just wouldn’t happen.  I’m hoping we have everything situated by the end of August.  I will post here on Fanta’s website when I start scheduling shoots again.  I’m looking forward to filming again in the new house since there is so much ROOM!

Now that things aren’t so crazy and unpredictable, I am getting back into the swing of things with video updates here on Fanta’s website.  Sorry I’ve being kind of absent with that these past 2 months, but I’ve just had so much on my plate.  I’m hoping I can FINALLY start posting all of this content I have for you guys.  Thank you all for being patient with me!
