| Well hi ladies, how's it going? Sorry I have been MIA for a while, we have just been so busy. First looking for a house, then finding one and getting the paper work done for that one, constantly calling the folks that are buying this one and pushing them and their lawyer to get it done. So we found a house in Adairsville and we love it. It is quite a bit more than we thought we would spend but it is nice. It has 4 bedrooms, a huge bonus room or what we call the family room, a place for Jerry's office and a two car garage. It is in a new subdivision they are building and only about 5 minutes from I-75, 5 minutes from the new high school and shopping and restaurants. We are going to like it so much better than being in the boon docks like we are now. I was writing Joyce telling her that after we get moved in we will have to have a cookout and invite all the GA ladies so ya'll can see our house. Living in the boondocks we really haven't had much company over cause it is so far out in nowhere land. Anyway we sign the papers on this house on March 29th and then on the new house on March 31st. And then we start moving in. We will have 30 days to be out of this one.
Kim it was great hearing from you. And yes I know what you mean about the mortgage company, ours will be taking all our extra money. The new house is double what this one is plus we will have gas, garbage and water which we don't have now. Have you gotten your house all decorated at this point? We will need some new furniture but will have to buy it out little at a time probably. Get what we have to have at first and add the rest a little at a time.
Doris I looked at the Bird flu site and read some of it. When I think about it, it does worry me also but I try to just not really think about it much. Thanks for the site to look at. How are things going with you?
rosebud I have some Irish in me from my dad's side of the family. Him and my brother have red hair but I have more Italian in me. My grandmother was very much Italian but most people think I have Indian in me, not that I know of anyway. What's cooking lately?
Joyce 12 years to retire??? That's to long!! Seems like you have been at the WH forever already. Jerry has about 6 years before he can retire but will probably work for 8 to 10 more years. Oh Pag is back in her house. The house they were going to get the people left oweing money on it plus seems she said they were into drugs and such so she went back home. linnea has been very busy with work but says she misses the GA porch and wonders if anyone remembers her. I told her we did and missed her also. I think you should put tulips in the new flower bed, we saw some beautiful ones the other day.
Stacey sorry about all the medical stuff you are fixing to have done, it doesn't sound like any fun. Prayers your way.
ditzy so sorry to hear about your car problems and that you had to quit a job you loved. I hope everything works out in the end and ya'll can get the car to running again. We have an old truck we are fixing to find a shop for and put a new motor in and some new tires, then I want it painted and I am going to probably start driving it. It is BIG and I love it.
Kelly hope you and your family have a great time in Florida and hope it is warmer down there than it is here. Do ya'll collect sea shells when ya'll go to the beach? We always love doing that.
martie you are as busy as ever, reading your post wears me out thinking of all the running you and the girls do. I know you will win the weight loss contest cause we are all pulling for you. It sounds like Savannah will look beautiful in the dress. Take lots of pictures so you can post a few. I still get jokes from Elizabeth from time to time and send her a few so I reckon she is doing fine.
Sharon how ya doing? We have missed you. How is work going? I thought of your hubby the last few weeks, in the living room of our new house it is one of those giant tall ceilings that only God could reach and they have flat paint in the room and Jerry wants semi-gloss in the room so he is wanting to get it painted. We may end up hiring the original contracters to do it. Wish ya'll didn't live so far off or we would call your hubby.
Lee I have been cold here for the last few days but it is colder there so I know I would be freezing if I lived there.
Ya'll have a great day and I will hollar back as soon as I can find the time.
hugs,
mouse
