Six months ago something happened. Six months ago, Hub's oldest boy, whom I lovingly call "The Boy", had something to show me. I could NOT get my mind off said "thing". I Prayed, called, faxed, worried, cried, puked, payed, laughed, got pissed, you name it, I had it or did it. This possitive, scary, something that I thought would NEVER happen, experence was presented to me, almost on a silver platter.


In my corner:

The Boy {{{{HUGS}}}} Who found it, bought it and who spent hours working on project to make sure it was juuuust right for his little sister :) He fixed everything and did a GREAT job!! Thx Boy, I love ya!!

The Boy's Gramma and Auntie (yes Hub's ex~mom in law and sis in law. There great!) Talked Hub's and myself through the process.

My office assistant who was in said feild for many, many yrs. Tells me like it is!! She knows my family WELL. Maybe, sometimes too well. LOL

Her daughter, who was also in said field, on a different level, was VP of company. This lady is s.m.a.r.t. Also tells me like it is!

My Mom who will tell me i'm crazy but will support my decision and wish me the best.

Auntie V, my tell. me. like. it. really. will. be., financial advisior

and OHM who put up w/ countless phone calls, and the walk in, help me understand these big words, questioning person (which was me LOL)

In the other corner:

Peace, quiet and grass (Pretty much a no brainer huh?)


I could not be in a better position to do this than NOW. Some, well most, say i'm nutz. Why would you even consider doing something like this when your husband is dying and you have two kids w/ disabilities and The Boy w/ two grandbabies.

Why?

BECAUSE I have a dying husband, two girls with disabilities, and The Boy w/ two grandbabies.


Your wondering what on Earth have I done this time................




I bought my first house. Yeaaaa me.
