Welcome Gold*dust! Here's some Christmas dust for you!
WeLcOmE GOLDDUST!! Yes there is always room at the CRAZY camp for more campers! We are glad to have you...like I say, just BREATHE, everything will work out. It's a mighty uphill battle at times, this selling and buying venture, but it CAN and DOES happen!! Tell us where youare and hope to go
Stoy- that is SO sad...a difficult thing I can't even begin to imagine the loss of a child. Please tell the family that your friends from a forum send their condolences and prayers for peace...
Texas- ahh pecan tassies, Mama used to make them, oh so good!
That snow last night kept coming down and we are covered. It is really pretty, in that festive holiday way Mindy dog just luvs to prance out there in it & won't even wear her coat!
Well I opened mouth and inserted foot- invited the neighbors over to eat with us this evening Now they have been WONDERFUL neighbors and it is about time I return their hopsitality. I hope my rickety table will hold up!
I mentioned biscuits and sausage gravy, and I heard her drooling into the phone, so I naturally said y'all want to come eat with us??! SO now I have to become a world class chef in what, 6 hrs.??????? Only bought one can of biscuits...yes, can.....so I am gonna dig out the recipes and hope beyond hope I can make some homemade biscuits....too! Haven't made any in a LONG time.Hmm. maybe I will actually put that warming oven to use.....
Good thing I went to the store yesterday. I better get off for now, I need to plan my attack for this impromtu, haha, dinner. This is gonna be a 3 stooge production with me staring in each role!
Welcome to boot camp Gold dust! Fill us in on your sellers diliamas, nitemares and the good times!
Crazyma I am sure dinner will be fantastic and if truth was known you are probably an excellent chef! Enjoy the company and new friends, everyone needs a good neighbor once in a while.
I so love watching little ones in their stage productions! they are always so cute........
Crazyma- I am sure dinner will be fun. Just sit back and relax with your company. It will be yummy, I am sure. You could always do what my SIL does when company comes- she serves wine or beer ahead of time. I think she wants people to get tipsy so they realize that she doesn't cook well. She has always HATED cooking.

Gold Dust!
LOL OMG that made me laugh out loud. I am going to have to try that one out!
Thanks to all for the warm welcome It is a waiting game right now to find out the status of our offer on a spec home. I'm just hoping to get pumped up by following others stories.
Painter I flew in to NJ last year and gave my son my $10,000 diamond to be mounted in her ring (it's over 100 yrs. old and a family heirloom). Well my daughter was getting her hair done last week and it turns out the future uses same beautician.
She told my dtr. that when they admired her ring-she said they'll never get this back! Well my dtr said -yes we will, with her finger still attached when I cut if off.
All I can say is Wow. I can't swear on CD or can I?
Sorry I havent had the chance to catch up on anyone. Our house is officially off the market. Sad to not see it online. Never thought it'd go like this but no matter what today is another day closer to moving out west....
Just an update on my student's sister. She passed away over the weekend. Some teachers and staff will go out over the next few days to visit. What horrible timing.
Hope everyone stays warm this week, well except for you Floridians and Dogmom on your cruise, hope you brought us all back some warm sunshine!!!!
Oh Stoymonkey I am so very sorry to hear that but she is in a much better place. It is the ones left behind that feel the pain.
Just wanted to share the news with you all FINALLY...
Well, at 6:15 this evening, we will FINALLY getting the keys to our new home! I am feeling all kinds of emotions right now. Hopefully, the SELLER did what he said he would do and the home is the way we saw it before closing over a week ago. ( YOU KNOW OUR SAGA!)
Thank you all for just being here on a daily basis!
Each of you are an incredible! We are an INCREDIBLE BUNCH!
This journey is winding down. I know some of you are on this roller coaster ride, but just hang on tight. We all will make it until the end with the help of each other.
Sending you all lots of hugs and lots of pixie dust.
A big thank you again!
