SOLD!

You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away and know when to run..... 
This is the one line that Mark sent to me in email yesterday. He is very funny to me. Is it just me that finds humor in Mark? I think the man is so witty and he makes tuff situations comical. Even if he doesn't like it he makes a joke.   
Moving on to the house news, we agreed to sell our house on Cinco de Mayo.  A little irony to sweeten the deal. (If you know my neighbors you know why it is ironic.) Again something Mark pointed out. Nothing could really sweeten the deal because the market STINKS!  At least now we can buy a house here in loverly N Alabama.  
I am hoping over time we can get over selling our house in a buyers market.  At least we weren't upside down and have money to walk away with.  I understand this is not the case in many sales that are going on right now. I feel blessed to have a buyer in a buyers market and feel like once we are settled in our new house we will be even more blessed.  We close June 19th and we have already been looking for a house  The difference now is if we really like it we can offer the seller a ridiculously low amount of money and we too might get a deal.  BAH!

Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook

It has been 24 days since I changed my password and logged off Facebook. I have logged on twice to see if anyone messaged me and logged back off. Which I am glad that I did because someone messaged me about math tutoring. The only thing I missed was if someone had had their baby. I was interested to know and while I tried so hard to stay off Facebook I did search her name just to see if she had the baby. Then I thought if she did have the baby and I don't know then are we really friends?   We are not friends by the true definition, just virtual Facebook friends. Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook 1. Selling of Rodan & Fields, LuLaRue, 31, Ketones or Scentsy.  I like some of these products and support you 100% and hope you do well.  The multiple posts on your product daily but nothing else in your life, blah. 2. Bragging. I love to see pictures of your vacation, if it isn't the only time you are on Facebook. 3. Posting fake news. 4. Making a comment I ...

One Word Can Actually Make a Difference

I choose not to work. I do understand that people don't have a choice and have to work outside of the home for a pay check to buy food and shelter.  One parent in my house must work. I also feel some don't really have to work and choose to work for luxury items.  I have talked to people that say there is no way they could be a stay at home parent and choose to go to work. Why do we as parents belittle each other in our choices.  Recently on Facebook (some say a necessary evil, but I think it is just evil) A parent commented   "...for the parent that actually works".  Wow, only one word makes that sentence sting.  I try not to let these words on Facebook hurt me or give them a second thought but I am a wordy person and I think about words.  The sentence takes a different tone if it was written, "for the parent that works".  The word "actually" implies negative things to those that don't work. For the parent that works I understand that a 30 ...

Queen of Google

Day in and day out I am frustrated with myself because I didn't take the time to write.  I want to write but I find myself not writing anything but thinking about writing.  I love to read and make time for reading but I find myself often just thinking about writing and not actually writing.   I am not sure what will ever motivate me to write daily.  Being a mom to three tween/teens in a huge job.  Especially when one is being homeschooled this year.  I find myself saying things like, when the dishes are done or when the laundry is done then I will write.  Just let me check all this school work first and then I will write.  When it is quiet, I will write.  This could be why I never write.  It is never quiet in this house.   Today I have had enough.  I am not about new year resolutions but I am going to make the commitment today to write daily.  I ideally would like to write not just for the blog but novel writing. ...
