Guess What???…..

CHICKEN BUTT! Sorry it’s a goofy family thing :)

Feeling a little giddy cause we got some good news about the auction. For “some” reason (God)…our house was not up for auction yesterday. It got cancelled. I have to tell you, I had been whispering to God…asking for a Monster Snow or something that would keep buyers away. We did get some ice Tuesday night into Wednesday morning…nothing horrible although there are several hundred people around us without power. They even had to shut down the “highway” for a few hours because of downed power lines on it. But we found out it was not a weather related cancellation from a neighbor who is a realtor.

I have not found home or job so this is a BIG relief even tho I need to begin “moving on” and being here makes it more difficult. Anyway…we were also told that it takes about 45 days to reschedule the auction…I have time to find work!!!

I have a lot in front of me still…and apologizes in advance for when I crash down again…but I can take a deep breath again. I don’t care (yet) about all he boxes around me…cluttering up the home…just thankful that God provided a place by keeping us here a bit more. (Also maybe into better weather for the move).

Ive been staying on plan. Walking 2 miles each day. Every couple days getting in boxing on the wii. WATER GALORE…averaging 120-144 ounces a day! No gills yet but I keep checking. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming…

    I am so happy for you. At least you have a little break and more time to get everything taken care off. Prayers do help…so let’s keep praying! :D

    Just hang in there! I truly believe God doesn’t give you any more than you can handle and everything happens for a reason.
    Big HUGS!

    Debbie, I am glad you have some time to regroup and gather your thoughts. It’s time to take action also.

    Are you still walking?

    My hubby and I do the Chicken butt thing, only I take it a step further.
    You know why? Chicken thigh
    You know where? Chicken Hair (to which we respond, “but chickens don’t have hair.”) like you said, a silly famliy joke.

    Keep strong and know that God will get you through this.

    {{BIG HUGS}}

    That’s great! And no apologies, please. Dealing with life can be hard sometimes, and I think you are handling things as well as can be expected. Even better.

    Yay for a cancelation!!! I’m so happy to hear you have more time to get things together and even happier to hear you still aren’t letting this be a point where you throw in the towel like most people would. Good luck with the job search and new home search. Keep up the great work let me know if those gills appear :p

Lots of bending and stretching and walking and pulling and well you get the picture! Happy happy thoughts form OK. (((Hugs))))
