Thank you for keeping USA the Land of the Free

May 29, 2011 · 4 comments

Happy Memorial Day – I hope ya’ll are enjoying the day.
It’s really nice and warm in Mid-Missouri – no storms today.

Please take a moment to reflect on the possibilities and opportunities we have in America.  Those rights and that freedom have come at the cost of  the lives of  too many of our American Brothers and Sisters in arms.

I offer thanks for their service and appreciate everyday that I was born in the land of the free and the home of the brave.  Thank you for standing watch over me and my family.

We’re still trying to sell this house. (It’s been on the market less than a month – Devoted Husband thought it would sell as soon as the sign was in the front yard).

Thus far he has not inflicted bodily harm on our agent. Bless Him.

And of course the reason we must move: all together now!  Himself wants to go to a different high school.  Self Explanatory right?

I’m painting a canvas to display above the mantel…I read a “Staging your Home” blog and so I am trying to Depersonalize our home.
AND my two sons, my almost daughter-in-law and Manny the bulldog arrived late last night. We are thrilled to be together again.

But the house may just have to sell itself.

A Farm!!! you were very lucky. I’d move to the farm tomorrow! But I’m the only member of the family who thinks that would be cool.
Have a Blessed week.
