ALL THINGS

IT'S BEEN AWHILE SINCE I LAST POSTED. I'VE HAD A LOT GOING ON AND JUST DIDN'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT.

OUR HOME HAS BEEN SAVED ONCE AGAIN, NO WE DON'T GET TO KEEP IT...NO THE SHERIFF'S SALE HAS BEEN POSTPONED ONCE AGAIN NOW IT'S JULY 9TH. WITH THAT IN MIND THEY HAD TO EXTEND HOW LONG WE COULD LIVE HERE. SO WE NOW HAVE TILL JAN 2012 TO STAY.

BUT DAMN I HATE THINKING OF MOVING IN THE WINTER. HUBBY SAID IF WE CAN SWING IT WE ARE MOVING (at least back to SD) WE ARE TALKING TO A REALTOR WHO THINKS HE CAN SELL THIS HOUSE FOR US. WE'VE BEEN WAITING TO SEE IF HOUSING PRICES WERE GONNA GO BACK UP SOME. THEY HAVEN'T SO WHO KNOWS HOW THIS WILL TURN OUT. IN MY OPINION I THINK THAT BECAUSE THERE IS SO MANY HOUSES EMPTY AND SO MANY MORE THAT WILL SOON BE EMPTY FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER, I'M AFRAID THAT WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN IS THAT PRICES WILL FALL TO WAY WAY BELOW WHAT THEY ARE REALLY WORTH TO PRICES BACK TO THE 1950'S OR LOWER. JUST SO THEY CAN SELL HOUSES AGAIN. AND OF COURSE THEY'VE GOTTA LOWER THE INTEREST RATE LOWER THAN NOW. THAT'S ONE OF OUR PROBLEMS WE PAID INTEREST AND PAID INTEREST AND NEVER GOT TO THE PRINCIPLE OF THE PAYMENT FOR THIS HOUSE. WHY YOU SAY EASY WE ADDED ON, WE ADDED A GARAGE, WE REMODELED AND THEN DID REDID THE SIDING AND WINDOWS AGAIN. ALL THAT DID WAS REDO THE MORTGAGE OVER AND OVER TILL IT WAS OVER OUR HEADS. WELL ACTUALLY WE COULD WHILE HUBBY HAD THE GOOD TRUCK DRIVING JOB THAT PAID VERY GOOD. BUT WHEN THAT WENT SOUTH AND THE ONLY JOB HE COULD GET WAS A $10. AN HOUR THAT DOESN'T EVEN PAY OUR MONTH TO MONTH BILLS LET ALONE THE HOUSE...WELL YOU GET THE PICTURE.

WE'VE DECIDED TO STAY WITH VERIZON SO WE UPGRADED PHONES SO I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET A BLACKBERRY CURVE. NOW THIS ISN'T A NEW PHONE IT'S REFURBISHED. BUT HECK I'LL TAKE IT......THE BLACKBERRY FLIP I HAVE(HAD) HAS TO BE AT LEAST 3 YRS OLD IF NOT 4. SOME OF THE BUTTONS DON'T WORK ANY MORE, SO MOST OF THE TIME I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND REREAD WHAT I TYPED BEFORE SENDING AND IT WOULD TAKE ME SO LONG PEOPLE WOULD CALL ME TO SEE IF I GOT THEIR TEXT. BUT NOW THEY ARE GONNA HAVE TO WAIT A WHILE FOR ME TO ANSWER THEIR TEXTS BECAUSE THE BUTTONS ARE SOOOOOOOO SMALL! I NEED MY GLASSES AND A MAGNIFYING GLASS. IT DOES HELP THAT ITS GOT A QWERTY KEYBOARD BUT DAMN THOSE BUTTONS ARE SMALL.

IN OTHER NEWS WELL GEE I CANT THINK OF MUCH ELSE WE SEEM TO BE IN A RUT. ONE WHERE THERE IS NO MONEY TO DO ANYTHING SO WE SIT HOME AND PLAY ON FB.
