It looks to be official. I talked to the finance company today about the new house. Everything is a go. Tomorrow at 2pm central time I'll be signing the papers and getting the keys. I'm off work tomorrow at noon, however I have to go back to work at 4 pm. Tomorrow is going to be a very long day/night.

I'm going to be doing a friends list purge sometime in the next week. Those of you that wish to remain on the list should reply to this posting unless you post with some sort of frequency yourself. If you post on a regular basis I'll leave you on the list. Basically I just have to many people on my list that I haven't read anything from in months ( Read more... )

I did have the privilege of meeting him and getting to know him in person while I was ( Read more... )

Well I made it. I'm here. Actually I have been for a few weeks now. I finally found the time last night to get the computer set up so I am back online finally. Last night I had to dig through 263 emails (no spam). I've been having truck issues as of late. I never had one problem with the truck until I took it into jiffy lube and they forgot to ( Read more... )

Nothing spectacular to report. I'm exhausted but we all expected that. I picked up the truck this morning. I've been loading it all day. I need to pack a few more boxes tonight. I'm doing laundry as I type this. This next week is going to be hell not that it's much of a shocker. I'll check my email one last time in the morning before I tear down ( Read more... )
