Pray that house sells
« on: September 21, 2007, 07:27:41 AM »
HEY ALL!  You know the ordeal I have been through with all of the surgery and buying a house and trying to get this house ready to sell.  It took me A month more than originally planned to get it ready.  So yesterday it was shown for the first time and no word back-then it struck me-if we do not sell it fast it will sit over the holidays.  So I ask all my dear friends (if you are so inclined) to send a prayer for a quick sell.  I know God is in control but I would just love to sell it!

I will pray, Kelly. I heard that if you light a vanilla  candle,it adds a  homey touch that people respond to.
 I bet that it will sell soon                                  Love  Ami

Overcomer,

The smell of good coffee is also another one that makes people think of 'home' - hopefully, to think of your home as their home (once they've paid for it)!

Dear Kelly,

I am praying for the very best of what God has for you and your family, because... you can't top that! It's just a fact.
So many times I've wanted one thing and found another was even better... and yet I know that we need to ask in order to receive, so...
all that bein said... yes, ma'am, I am praying!!

Love,
Carolyn

P.S.  fresh flowers on the table would sell me!

Moving can be so stressful.  You sound incredibly good given everything you have been going through.  My prayers are with you.

Well, WE will but it will depend on who and when they buy if they can enjoy Thanksgiving here......

Today and over the last few days we have driven up our credit card......we plan to pay it off when we get the proceeds from the house.  Riding Mower, fridge, range, area rug, armoire for tv, large screen tv....we are both stressed.

Today is Homecoming so my middle girl is getting her nails done and hair done and then I have to go take pictures and buy food and a flower for her date!!  Yikes life is hectice right now!

So we go drive by the new house.  There are three little kids riding their scooters through the neighborhood.  H drives past them really fast and I tell him to slow down and he proceeds to scream out the window...."get off the street you stupid kids!"  So I say, "oh, it's alright to kill a little kid - serves them right!!"  Oh he made me so mad.

Then we went into Menard's and he charged out in front of me and tromped through the store.  "I hate this place,"  He says.

Then we go to Lowe's and I say to him, "Please do not storm out in front of me."  He can barely keep himself back with me.

Then we go and spend $2000 on a John Deere riding mower and suddenly he is in a good mood.  I tell him, we can buy it now if you will go and look at area rugs with me.  So we go to the area rug store and he just sits there - silent - while I look through them.  He sees one he likes and says, "there, let's get that one...."  I said, "we haven't looked through them all yet."  So I continue to look and we finally find one we both agree on.

So then we decide to get some food at Arby's.  He doesn't want to go through the drive through so we park, go in and order.  The kid behind the counter was untrained and slow.  The place was short staffed and it took forever!!  (I was muttering under my breath....."we should have gone through the drive through....")

Then we get home and he brings in a ladder and I hear him cussing and saying NO, I WON'T DO IT......and then he comes upstairs and proceeds to tell me I am going to stand at the bottom of the ladder and hold it all the while he is doing his job........I can't believe I said it but I flipped him off and said F### You!!  RAn upstairs, changed my clothes and was leaving and he said "Where are you going?"  And I said, "Anywhere where YOU are not!!!!!"

The thread about hate?  I hated him today!!!

Married life-- It reminds me of the saying "" Marry in haste-- Repent in leisure.
I have had many a similar day.
I think that moving would tax the best of marriages. For the rest..........Watch out.     Love  Ami
