I haven't been blogging much lately and today I am finally going to share why.

My Family and I are looking for a new house to call home. This statement might sound exciting and fun... but it has been over shadowed by stress and disappointment. Shaun and I have been married for 7 years now and after being married for about 3 years we were done moving around and renting. But that time came when the market was at a all time high. But we still continued our search with Realtor's in the dead heat of the summer and while being pregnant. It was discouraging, is an understatement. Everything that we could afford at the time was a dump or too small for the amount of money and I was not willing to move out to 'Cleveland' (Queen Creek or Maricopa). But our prayers were answered after many many months when I came upon the home we are living in now. It was a Lease to Own option and at that time (and the way the market is now) was the best deal for us to do. I was so Blessed to find this home. I was promoted to call and act fast on it, with out my husbands 'go ahead' or anyone else for that matter (and thats not me, I have the attitude of I am afraid to try sometimes).
We have been happy in this home for going on 3 year now...but now we are growing out of it and wanting more bank for our buck. What our Landlord wants for this house is more then $100,000 of what its worth now. So, we would be saving money, buying a bigger home and losing our money we put into this home. Our Landlord is great and totally agreed and we have been in a month to month situation for the last few months. It was nice to know that we had a home until we find a place.
About a month ago, I had a feeling that I should ask my Realtor friend to look up our house. (b/c we were getting weird phone calls about helping with the mortgage). She tells me that our home has a gavel on it (action in May)... meaning that our Landlord has not been paying the mortgage company our rent that we give him. Of course we jumped on the phone with our Landlord to see what the heck was up. He assures us that we will be find and the bank will not kick us out, that He is playing hard ball with the Banks to get a better interest rate on his homes he and his company has. Yeah, HARD BALL at our expense. So, now we really have a fire under our butts to find a house to buy. But now its not on our own terms, now its stressful.
Who knows what will happen, if our Landlord is telling us the truth not to be worried or if it really will be up for action.
If you are reading this, you probably have been up with my blog and know of how I pull out my eyebrows and eyelashes not knowing or willingly when I am stress or overwhelmed... Well, needless to say I have zero of both right now. I am trying to keep a positive attitude about all of this and know that we will find our home... but it is so hard when all the home you are looking at are trashed because its a Foreclosure and people just leave it a mess and take everything (toilets, cupboards, fixtures etc...) or We find a house and put an offer in on it, only to find that someone has beat us to the punch or its a short sale (meaning it will take forever to close). People that say this is a great time/market to buy... ARE not Looking themselves.
Thanks everyone for your support and I will keep you informed.

But since I am not feeling well today, due to a breast infection...

SoNg oF tHe wEEk

The Start of this week was my husbands and My Seven Year Anniversary... That got me thinking of the start of our Marriage, the first few months. I don't know about you but I can hear a song and it can take me back in time... a memory or a time in life. Well Enrique Iglesias takes me back to when my husband and I lived in a 1 bedroom/1 bath apartment the first months of our marriage. We uses to Jam out to this CD. I loved it. We would play it blazing in the car or in our apartment...and the best thing about it was that Shaun enjoyed bustin' out to it with me. So, the SoNg oF tHe wEEk goes to EnRiquE IgLesiAs "Escape".... Turn it up and Dance with me!!

Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansas at the opening session of the Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some people. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:

Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.

We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare..

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem..

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.
Amen!

Okay, ITS TIME GIRL! CUT YOUR HAIR!!! PLEASE I AM BEGGING YOU!! Lets get rid of your grow extensions and chop your hair... your hair is now gross looking, I am not sure if its your hair or now your armpit hair. I am not a fan of yours (well maybe when you were young and innocent) but I think, by doing something with this mane of yours... maybe I could at least respect the hair.
