SO MANY EMOTIONS.....

Thursday, August 26, 2010 is my last day at St. John's. It is no surprise to anyone that I am very sad, kind of heartbroken, to be leaving such a great place to work, and such great people that I work with. I have made some lifelong friends, and have learned so much, even about myself. I really can't imagine how I will walk away tomorrow!

On the other hand, I miss that CB so much and can't wait to start our new adventure! I am so lucky to be going home, home to my family.

But, I have so many friends here that I love so very much. I can't name them all, but if you are reading this you can rest assured you are one of them.

My grandkids, I have missed so many things, school plays, sports, etc....I finally get to be a vital part of their life!

Well, I guess you can see, I am having ALOT of emotions! Sleep is my only escape! Think I will go to bed!!!

MY GOD IS SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!


My God has seen fit for us to have this house!!! Can you believe it? Well, of course we know my Best Friend can do anything.
After we terminated negotiations, the seller's realtor advised her to fix everything. To make a long story short, she not only agreed, but is actually doing MORE than we asked, including a new roof and new heater. The Comstocks even went over there and sent a phone picture of them standing at the door! So we are just waiting on all the repairs to be completed so we can close. We want the inside painted, new carpet in the bedrooms, and cleaned (she has been gone a year and it is really dirty). I am so very grateful.
CB is in Texas, started work Monday. He will be home for about 30 hours this weekend. I can't believe how much I miss him. But I am staying busy with work, and last night had dinner with Dana and then the Conovers brought us some FABULOUS homemade dessert (great job Joel).
Tobi has enrolled the grandkids in school just down the road from us......I feel so undeserving of so many blessings from my Lord, but I DO give him all the praise!

NEGOTIATIONS OVER


Well. it is over. That house was just not meant to be. (Waaaahhhhhhhhh!!!) I know, my God is in charge!! There is another place, even better! This is CB's last week at work. He leaves Sunday for Texas. So this week is busy going through things, throwing away, discovering things we forgot we had.....I wish it wasn't so HOT! The heat drains me and I don't have the energy I usually have, and obviously, I need it!!!

HELLO OUT THERE.....

SO many months of not blogging!!!! Lots of things have been happening. Angel has been spade, by the same vets, and she is just great! She is such a good dog, and she is treated like a QUEEN....mostly from CB!
Well if you haven't heard. WE ARE MOVING TO TEXAS! CB and I are the only ones on BOTH sides of the family NOT in Texas (even our kids have moved back). We have great jobs here and we had agreed we couldn't move until God provided jobs! Within 10 days, CB had been interviewed and been presented with an offer....which he took, from Cook Children's Hospital in Ft. Worth! He starts August 16th. I will work here until the 26th, and CB has been given a week off to move the day after that.
Now for the picture! This is the house we are trying to get. We have hit some snags, but we are still hopeful. We are driving down today to look at it.
You know, we are all Texans, even Angel. She is a great little traveler, and likes to cuddle the whole way, which I love!
There you have it in a nutshell. I WILL try to get back to blogging, especially since I will be leaving such great friends in Missouri!!!
