LIfe is Grand!

I haven't posted for awhile because there really hasn't been much to post about.

It seems like we are at a stand still with our house.  We haven't broken ground yet!  Grrrrrr!  I am so antsy for the house to be completed.  I guess the longer it takes to build, the more money we can hopefully save up for things like a fence, RV pad, landscaping, new furniture.  I'm overwelmed at the thought of how much we'll still have to put into the house to get it complete - and thinking of ways to make it easier on our pretty thin pocketbook.  Who knows - we may not get a fence for a year or so and Duke will have to be in a dog run when we are gone.  WHY CAN'T THEY START MY HOUSE?  Don't they know I want it done NOW?!?!?!

We haven't had any movement on our house.  The realtor finally called Tim back and said we need to lower the price.  Really?  I could have told her that.  She is a nice lady, but is really hard to get a hold of.  I think we'll keep her on for a couple more weeks and then go for sale by owner.  It looks more and more like we'll be renting out this house instead of selling.  Darn!

As for grandpa - Tim's daughter is due on June 5.  She ended up in the emergency room last weekend with major cramping and nausea - turns out she had a major infection but was starting to feel better.  Poor thing.  She was pretty stressed out because her boyfriend of two months had told her it was a mistake to hook up with her - so their relationship is already on the rocks.  She just can't seem to catch a break in the man department!  They were taking this relationship slow.  Don't think you can get much slower, though.

I guess that is about it for today's post.  Hopefully I'll be able to post good news about our house later this week!  Keep your fingers crossed =)
