What a gorgeous day it was today. Started out a little cloudy and misting but quickly made way for sun and lots of it. Sorry for those of you living up north where it's very cold and snowy. I am so blessed to have the friends that I have. I truly have awesome friends. Several of my friends have been helping me prepare my present home for demolition! YES!!!!! Ok, so not really demolition but it will be hauled away to mobile home heaven! I am getting a much needed new home this summer. So, trees must come down, porches must be removed everything moved out. My daughter will be staying with her dad for a few months during the summer and I will be staying with friends, told you I have awesome friends! It's a huge undertaking, very scary but I am SO excited to be getting a new home and ......... dare I say it? IT'S ALL MINE!!!! NO ONE ELSE'S name is going to be on the mortgage! WOOO HOOOOO I just want to thank my ex-husband for giving me the house and the acre of land that came with it and I am very happy he talked me out of selling it when he left. At the time I thought he was being very cruel leaving me with a house that truly needed a great deal of help but with those awesome friends of mine I have kept it together and will now reap the benefits of having faith and being patient. And to my friends who have stood by me and came to my rescue more then once for household repairs, I am truly grateful and honored to have friends like you and I will love you all forever! Sometimes in life we really do over look the blessings we have and just concentrate on the bad things that have happened to us, and we do nothing but whine and complain about it. Behind every bad thing in your life is at least 2 good things that have come out of the bad thing you just have to look for them. Be thankful for what you have everyday(even a house that needs lots of help! lol) because there is always someone less fortunate then you. Have an awesome night everyone!
