BORING BLOG POST

I will be quite honest.

I don't like the format of blogging here.

So I am doing some checking elsewhere.

I would like to have a little more control. (Imagine that!)

Here is something to get you by....

Can you believe how BIG these two have gotten in the past few months?
 
Stop. Growing. Please.
 
Love,
Your mom (who isn't wanting you to grow up.)

Blog Update

SURPRISE!!
It's ME!!
After several months of being absent, I am BACK!!
I have lots of news, but most importantly, I want to thank you for hanging in there!
Please bear with me through the changes of the blog. I am trying out something new working with WORD 2010 and posting from there.
There may be a hitch or two, but we will get the kinks worked out soon enough!
Anyway, WELCOME BACK! I can't wait to talk to you all!!


 


 

This is a test


This is a test to see how the posting goes in from Word. This is only a test. And not one from your emergency broadcast system, mind you. ;o)

Crumbling

Ever felt like your world is crumbling all around you?

Out of control.

Losing all you love?

I. DO.

Too much

The disappointment is too much to bear about the house.

So I am sparing you the details, but still blogging from my phone...

Because everything else is in storage.

The one thing I AM excited about is going home this week.

We will be making several stops before we get to my sister's; but i am welcoming the trip!

After we got back from doing house stuff, we had dinner with Kelly and Tommy. (the friends who we are staying with).

I uploaded a phone from the back deck in facebook, but can't add from my phone. So check it out there, if you want.

Until i have better news about the house, I wont be posting.

Hopefully, I will talk to you soon!

"I never think of the future - it comes soon enough." Albert Einstein

Last week was hard to swallow.
The installation of our tile shower was botched.
It still is botched.
It has been a stressful time.
Especially because we want to be into the house by next week.
So having a botched shower wasn't really what we were anticipating.
But the builder is going to try and rectify the situation, so I am going to spare you the agony of looking at the photos of a tile shower that was so poorly constructed.

Instead, I am going to show you the happy updates that we saw last night.

See the {sold} sign?? THAT'S US!!












We met the neighbors that bought to the left of us last night. We all kind of congregated around our driveway (A & K and the new neighbors). The mosquitos were quite crazy, and so we moved over to A & K's garage.

They have started to grade, and I am still hoping they will clear out the back where the easement is, as I had requested. Why they didn't when they graded the land next to us, I have no idea. But it is on my walk through check list.

It's possible we will have a Certificate of Occupancy by Wednesday. It's getting down to the wire. There is always a big push at the end, right?

One more thing...
The floors are beautiful.
Probably my favorite thing in the house.
Seriously.
And I can't wait until you see them in person. Won't you make a reservation and come stay with us?

Here's to hoping for smooth sailing next week!

be blessed,
