Well, it is my great-grandma but it doesn't matter we were still close to her. She lived a very healthy life until about 3 weeks ago when she VERY suddenly went downhill. She has outlived most of her children which is sad and it made her sad also. She was a WONDERFUL lady!!!!

Good afternoon, Gabbies,

good to see all of you today. QE, it is especially good to see you - we've been missing you so much!!!!!! Praying that all goes ok with your tests. I'm so sorry to hear about your gr-grandma. Was she saved? So she's in a better place, I hope?

AG, what a time you've had with this house hunting!! You will know enough by the time this is over that you could just go ahead and get your realtors license. I'm still praying for God to give you exactly the right house for you!

Well, Justin (my 17 year old) had his first experience getting stuck in the snow today. He drove our youngest son to school (we had a 2 hour delay for Swanton. Justin's school was cancelled completely) On his way home, he went to turn at a corner and slid into a snow bank. Hung it up good! He was so funny. Called me and said, "Ummm, Mom, we have a little problem here". I had to laugh tho. Nobody was hurt and no damage to the van. So it was no big problem. I called the fire dept. and they sent one of the guys out to help Justin push the van out of the snow.

Today is Walt's birthday. It chokes me up just to be able to say that. Just think, this day could have been a dark, dark day for us. Instead it is a day to rejoice!!! Glory to God!!!!! Thank you, Jesus!!!!

We are all rejoicing with you Margie!!! Praise the Lord for the miracle in your life. I have a Praise report. My husband is feeling much better. He has not said we will go on our little trip, yet. But I can tell he is definately feeling better. I am thanking God for answered prayer. Just checking in with yall!!!!

Checking in, and checking out.
Last week it was dead at work, this week we are "Flying!"

I will check back later tonight.
After work am going to the bank to see about a car loan!

Well I am back in Dallas,

didnt find a house today but.......... I went into one real estate office and was given and huge list of people who deal in mass rentals. I have contacted 10 of them and have about 15 more to call and I have a lot of "well I have this and this coming open on the first.. so it is looking as if we may have to just hang out here until the first and then go. Not a good thing for the kids and school but if nothing else (As long as Rob is with me I will be ok lol) we can always go ahead and stay in a motel out there for 2 weeks until the place comes open. I am not beyond that and for my kids I will do about anything right now and to have a house thats mine!!!

So I am making a list and checking it twice and gonna go back to tyler come Sunday night yes theresa is coming to town LOL.. sorry feeling a little goofy today.. anyways. I have some addresses already and some I will get by Sat and some I am praying contact me by then. And I am going to mapquest these out in a big circle thru town, I even had a real estate agent offer to take me to find any of them (her homes or even homes of t he other agents) that werent locatable thru mapquest. SO I will map all of these out by Sun morning and then head down there and if there are any agents who have not contacted me by Sun, I will be at their office bright and early Mon morning and I am gonna go stay Sun night and Mon night and all day Tues or until I find a house!!!! Its hard having to get there late in the day and hunt hunt hunt in the dark especially since its mostly country and you cant read half of the "go down 3 trees and turn at the heard of cows" sign.. I mean for cryin out loud I cant see black cows when they is layin down and its dark out!!!!

So I am planning on having about 50 places (claiming it in Jesus name yep claiming it claiming it claiming it!!!) by Monday and then it will all be good! I had rethought going there over and over but I cant do this anymore. Leaving there just mentally kills me every time I drive off now... I KNOW that much that I need to be with Rob. I know some think I have real issues right now and I am sure they do... and yea I do have issues... but put yourself in my place the last 6 months and tell me you wouldnt have the exact same issues LOL!!! After I left there today I am more confident then ever that I am gonna move there!!! Then on to wherever but I am gonna be there!!!

Whew soooooooooo when I get a chance I will have to see if I can get this silly pic to download... I do have one picture for you all to see of a house we found that is totally rockin!!! And I totally forgot until just now I was supposed to get Ron the pic of the pink house I found!!

Oh well next time

AG, I think we can all agree - the only issue we see you having is the need to be with your husband and keep your family together. Nothing more than any of the rest of us want!! That's NOT an evil desire, dear. It's a very good thing! So you just keep hunting. We'll keep praying. And God will guarantee that He will do His part. He'll open exactly the right door for you. Nobody wants what's best for you more than GOD does!! He already has a plan.

Ag - hang in there. We are all praying for you. Remember that it may not be easy, but that does not mean it is not worthwhile. Keep looking for the perfect house, and keep focused on the goal. Having your family in one place.
