We're in Contract!

I spoke to our lawyer yesterday (Friday) and he informed me that the buyer has signed the contract! FINALLY! He expects to have them in his hands by Monday for us to sign. It looks like we're finally on our way!

We're heading down to NC next week to start looking for a house. This is the fun part now. We get to be picky, fussy and everything in between. Our plan is that this house will be the house we retire in ~~ or at least until we're ready to buy that big, shinny, new motorhome to travel the countryside in!

Not much else going on here. Shania has been doing wonderfully lately ~~ ever since we started seeing Dr. Wen. He's a holistic doctor out in Westhampton. He told us that the knee ligament that was put in her knee was loose, which was causing her to limp all the time. She now takes an herbal remedy called Hip Guard. After just a month of taking the Hip Guard, the ligament is more sturdy and I've noticed that she doesn't limp much at all. As a matter of fact, she's been much more active and looks to run around like the lunatic that she is! I'm happy to see that she's feeling better. I'm certainly going to miss Dr. Wen when we move but I'm hoping that we can still get her medicine from him.

As for school, I'm down to my last 6 tests. I don't know why, but I've got a good feeling that I'll be passing them very soon. I've been asking Bob to read over my tests before I hand them in and he said that he's impressed, they seem to make sense (which is a good thing!). I handed in a bunch this past week so hopefully on Monday I'll find out if any of them were passes! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Oh well, it's been a long day of work ~~ and some great fun, too. I've been helping Bob out with work at Purolator. The best thing for me is that I get to do it from home; however, I missed a few nights this past week for various reasons and ended up in a crunch today. After spending all day Thursday working on Purolator, I had to spend almost all day today working on it again. The fun part about today was that Audra, Dan, Kyla, Keira, and Mom took me out to TGIFriday's for my birthday! After dinner, they came to the house and brought cake. It was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon! Time spent with the girls and family are always special, especially when it's sandwiched between Purolator work!

I'm taking the entire day off from life tomorrow to enjoy my birthday. Bob and I will probably make the usual birthday dinner stop at Red Lobster (especially since I received a $5.00 off coupon for my birthday from them) but otherwise, I'm not planning on doing much tomorrow.

We're leaving on Tuesday to start the search for our new diggs. I'll post again once we've found something!

Hey, remember to turn your clocks back one hour tonight! YAY, one more hour to relax or sleep!

Until next time, my friends, be well, and enjoy life!

Love,
Faith
