Springtime
Sunday, 17. May 2009, 05:43:41
Time for a new post. Been far too long. As always life continues on and unfortunately I haven't kept up and there's no way I can fill in all the blanks.
Dennis and I are still in Hyrum, UT. Shane is still in Connecticut. Spring isfinally here and causing trees and flowers to bloom. I should be able to turn the sprinklers on tomorrow. I have done what I can to plant my garden, who knows if anything other than my tomatoes will actually grow this year. At least my strawberry plant from last year is now huge. I've done all this despite the fact my house is still on the market.
I keep my hopes up the house will sell but right now they are not very high. It's depressing when you've had about 20 showings and zero offers. This is a really nice house and there is no reason we should not have received even one low offer. I keep telling myself it only takes one showing to get this house sold...but that optimism is going away. We just need this house to sell. I am tired of being stuck in limbo - enjoy the season but don't do too much, make new friends but don't get too attached, make plans but don't count on them cause you could move...
I want to put Dennis in oreschool but what happens when life decides to be funny and the second after I hand in my check somebody puts an offer on the house.
There's really not much else to report - partially cause it's late and my brain is fried. I am trying to get a children's book published. We'll see how far I get with that.
I miss my husband and know times are hard on him. I will get to see him soon for a short while and be away from Dennis for the first time overnight - ever. So even though I know he will be in good hands, I will miss and worry about him terribly.
I'm sure the next blog will be more interesting, til then......
