I ask for it to be stickied, but I'm not sure if it's THAT valuable. . . . . but anywho. . . . . . . - - I'm pleased as punch to be here... and, for the record, I just got my job offer today, so I start work tomorrow morning, right out at Century III, running the maintenance crews!!--YLAM!!!!

I'm so glad you made it! Doesn't it feel good to not be in limbo anymore???

Here's a few shots I have taken recently, of a killer double rainbow from my balcony, as well as a couple other miscellaneous pics for your visual stimulation!!!:










Hope you guys enjoy 'em!!!

Love the rainbow pix! The kitty is cute, too.

So, it's been awhile since I updated this post....

Thought I'd ask and see if anyone knew....

....of any Hungarian or Eastern European Grocers in the Pittsburgh area.

So, we've actually wound up lucking into a possibility, right close to where we already are... there's a great house in nearby Carrick, and my gal's parents offered to BUY us a house, so we've made an offer on this one.... quite a little cutie, it is, and waaaaaaaaaay away from the noise and ghetto-fabulousness of Brownsville Road...

If our offer is accepted, this will FINALLY be the "Beginning of the End" for our home search..... I started this thread almost year ago, and we've had alot of changes during the process... but Pittsburgh IS now our "home", and once we have the home to prove it, you guys are all gonna' be invited over for some of the best Barbeque you've ever had in your life!!!!!!

Pretty decent, considering all things.... the dizziness is almost gone, oly striking when I get up too fast (resultant from the meds), and all in all, I feel completely blessed. The doctors consider me quite the case study, and want to track me for the next ten years, because technically, I wasn't supposed to live... when I did live, I was supposed to be a vegetable. . . . when I wasn't, I was supposed to have bad residual effects from the aneurysm / stroke.... and so far, that hasn't come to pass either...

Keeping my blood pressure low will be key, though, in any long-term recovery. I'm on meds, but they can only do so much...

I know moving (once again) to this new house (if the deal goes through) will be quite stresful, but once we get in and settled, hopefully I can also settle into a serene regimen and routine, and continue beatin' the odds!!! [Sings Molly Hatchet's "Beatin' the Odds Again"...]

Thanks for askin'! - - -What did ya' think of the house???
