God is super, good, awesome . . .

God is good, super, awesome, wonderful and all of thee above!! Over the weekend Jim and I got a great awesome deal for a place to live. Jim's Mom's house. Praise God!! This is a deal that we would be really really stupid not to take. The only way that we would stay at our current house is if the bank does come back with an even better deal than what we are going to be getting with Jim's Mom's house. And based on some documents that Jim and I got last week from the banks lawyers I really truly doubt that very much. So now I guess you can pray for my sanity with moving the house with 2 young kids that more times than not they seem to be a hinder and not a help . . . but then again they might totally floor me and actually help. So I just want to thank you all for your prayers and support during this trying time in our lives! Your prayers have been felt and an awesome support for Jim and I. Thank you! I now pray that God will return the favor to you and bless you in return for the prayer support that you have shown Jim and I. We are blessed! So like I said God is good, super, awesome, wonderful, great and all of thee above!!

Last night has been the first time this week that Jim has been home around the 5 o'clock hour in the evening due to the heat and everyone turning on their AC's and needing them fixed from sitting over the winter months. So we were talking and he has come to the realization that we will be moving and that we will be leaving his first home. The funny/ironic thing about all of this is that we are leaving the house that his Grandma Doyens lived in and moving into the house that he himself grew up in. We will be talking with the lawyer that is helping us with the home loan remod sometime today. We are going to ask him about all and any posibilities. Actually letting the house foreclose and even short sale and learning all the ins and outs and what would be the best deal for us to do at this point in time if the lender will not help us. On Tues. we got a letter in the mail stating that not only the lender but also the servicing company for our home loan is testifying against us to get us to leave the house, with that letter we know that maybe this is Gods way of helping us move into a more kid friendly home since we know that there would be no other way that we would have been able to do this on our own. So I feel like God is closing the door on Rosedale Ave. and opening the window on Roanoke Dr. . . . I think its drive. Anyway still continue to pray cause this battle is far from over. We still have one more court date on June 4th and then we have to figure out what would be the cheapest and easiest thing to do to end this long drawn out battle that should have never gotten to this point. It should not have gotten to this point due to the fact that alot of the political leaders including our beloved president stated that the banks and lenders are out to help those in finacial distress . . here we are begging for help now for 1 1/2 yrs and no one has helped us out as far as the lenders working with us. Anyway, thats just how I feel. So from now on if Jim and I have to borrow money for anything big again like an other home or a car we are going to go local no more of these big nation wide banks that are still getting those million dollar bonuses while there are people that are loosing their homes. Anyway on to something happy and better .  .
Evey yesterday graduated on to first grade. To say the least I did tear up a bit when I was reading her report card and I read what I already knew. Evey is/was able to be promoted onto first grade. She is so very happy and excited about this. She is loving this fact so much that its going to break my heart to try and tell her that she is going to have to go to a differant grade school. The good thing is that I am friends with one of her kindergarden classmates mothers so we will be in contact with them still. So that cloud does have a sliver lining. Well time to go and finish up with the laundry and start to condence things and get rid of other things so that when we do have to move it won't be so bad and hard.

good and bad

Hello yesterday was chop full of good and bad moments . . . here let me share them with you . . .
GOOD NEWS
1) Evey's registration forms are found in the school office and she is now officially signed up and ready for 1st grade.
2) With the heat and humidity God blessed us by supplying us with a window unit till we find out whats what with our house.
3) Jims mom called and told us that her ous is totally ours starting on Monday if need be.
4) We should be hearing and making a decision about which house to take by this week.

BAD NEWS
1) With the heat Jim has been working just about non stop since Sunday, this in its self is good and bad. I miss my husband but I know that he will be bringing home a good pay check for this week.
2) We should be hearing and making a decision about which house to take by this week.
3) We got a letter in the mail from their lawyers office testifying against us againa and wanting us out and this time the servicing company that we are with is also willing to testify against us and wanting us out. Let me tell you what a comforting feeling . ..  NOT!!
4) I'm hoping to be playing in dirt this week too. Pastor has a land tiller that he is willing to till up part of our land here so that I can plan my veggies that I've been growing.

Please pray that in all of this good news and bad news that what ever the out comes may be that its Gods will and not mine. I really want to move out and take Jim's mom's house but I don't want it if its not Gods will and plan for us. Thank you all for your support and prayers during this time. I am blessed with some great friends!!

PS this is a flower from my magnolia bush that Jim bought me last spring for our wedding anniversary. If we do have to move we are going to have to take that with us or get another one. This is one of my favorite floweral bushes!! LOVE IT!!

Well court was interesting yesterday. Turns out that their lawyer changed days and didn't tell or send us any kind of notification of this change. The judge scolled him and told him to bring proof next time of this . . . interesting?!? Do to this change the judge told us that we do not have to show up if we don't want to that he is waving our right to appear on our next court date. So the next time we have to appear or not appear is June 4th. What a better birthday gift then the judge telling them to go and fly a kite and to leave us alone and give us back our house. Yes that is right June 4th is my birthday. Wow that is coming up and then 25 days later is Aj's birthday . . better start working on that one hu? Well I got to go and get ready for the ladies night out tonight with church . . . so very siked about this . . . a night to be Nancy and not wife or mommy for an evening. Well talk to you laters.

We have court in the morning. Oh what fun!! NOT! Anyway if you think about it shout out some prayers for us. Thank you.

Today has been a good day. I don't remember having this much fun in a long time. I called the lawyer today and found out that our file for the home loan remod. is in the decision department  and that they have a full file. Meaning that they or someone will be looking at our file and figuring out what to do or offer us and that they have all the needed materials to make a proposal. The good thing about the full file is that they have the lowest/smallest pay stubs that Jim has ever had including a stub from unemployment. The decision period started on May 6th and will be there for about a month or so. We were hoping to know something for sure before our next court date on the 21st of this month but oh well, at least they are still looking at us and it shows me that they are going to try to work with us, hopefully.

Also I took the kids out for a walk this morning and hung some Avon books up on door knobs on the street that we live on and already got at least one new customer from them. The kids were fighting over which one gets to hang the bag of Avon stuff on the door knobs . .. it was great good cheap labor. After that we meet up with Evey's friend from school and her mom for lunch and then took all of the kids that were there with us moms to a park. The other mom there is into photography and took a ton of pics of the kids there and she said that she is going to put them on a disc and give it to me. Once I get that I will attempt to put some up here and on my face book page. OOOO also went to a yard sale and got 4 computer learning games, a shirt for Evey, and 3 toys for the kids for about 5 bucks!!

It was a good day and I am happy . . . fun in the sun with my kids and a new friend. I am blessed!! Oh I almost forgot, I started a veggie garden in my living room till we can plant them outside and I have bean pods growing now . . . so very siked about that one!! Can't wait to play in dirt to get them planted and then to pick them to eat. Thank you all for your prayers!!

Hello, I did not forget to give an update . . . there is just nothing to update on. Our next court date is on the 21st of this month so we are hoping to hear something, anything before then but it looks like we will not. We got a letter from the lender asking for updated pay stubs within 10 days of the date on the letter, and guess what we got in on that 10th day . . . thank you for you support guys.
Anyway on a more personall note I fear and feel like I'm slipping into some weird moods lately. Not sure if its the weather, this house biz or just me being me . .. but please pray that this what ever doesn't grow into something that is not good. Maybe its my mid-life stuff but then again I think I'm to young for that. Thank you for everything. Love you all!!
