House Headache Update

Hi blogland.

I've been sick, stressed and feeling incapable of writing a decent post.

We've had some problems with the home loan and now are faced with getting a ton of home improvements done in less than 60 days. Silly loan company making all sorts of demands. But since we want it all done anyway..and we have found a way to make it work..we are working..hard.

So, just let me say..having a poor excuse for a evaporative cooler and no functioning air conditioner in constant 110 F days...SUCKS. So, while much of the work is taking place on the house over the next several weeks, we will be staying at my brother-in-laws. (They are on an extended vacation).

In addition, having a summer cold (cold as in illness not temperature) in a house with poor cooling (90+ F in the house in the afternoons) SUCKS even more.

BUT

Despite all the struggles to get a decent loan and to get anything fixed or replaced in this house...

I still have hope that by August things will be much happier (and cooler) around here.

In the meantime, it makes it tough to post, when I feel so many complaints bubbling inside of me (not to mention the stuff leaking out my nose).

So lets all say a loud Hallelujah! for vacationing family and a Thank you! for those helping us make this work out. We will have friends and family up on our very hot roof helping us reshingle over the next two weekends. If nothing else, that reminds me how loved we really are. Oh, and as much as we need the rain...please all pray for NO RAIN during the week we have NO ROOF. Thanks..
