This year started out rough for me as so many knew in regards to the
loss of my boy Cory. From there however I had my grieving time, and I'd
lie if I said I didn't still tear up ever so often when a memory hits --
but I now also have the pleasure of being mom to one of the quirkiest
animals I think that has ever lived. A wonderfully cute lass who when
she stands can put her paws on my shoulders and jumps nearly as high as I
am tall... You get to witness those jumps when she's chasing
butterflies and birds, yet will hide from bunnies. Truly she's just such
a pleasure to be around and fills my heart daily!
Anyways, in regards to the title of this post -- I shared this in the GL
forums already and thought it high time I update here. Sorry I've been
so lax in my posts of late -- going to really try to remember to update
here! :/ oops
About a month ago I saw a craigslist ad for a house, and I was so struck
by it.. It was listed for an amount I knew I couldn't afford -- but I
e-mailed the person whom had it listed. Basic e-mail consisted of: This
is a beautiful house, and while I can't offer you the money you're
asking, if you are unable to find someone to help you out with this
before your move I would love to finish/rehab this b/c I think it will
be beautiful once completely finished and I would love to bring it to
it's full glory. Fast forward to this last Weds. when surprise I got a
reply e-mail! She stated she had had another interested party -- but
that person was unable to find transportation for the house. She then
stated she would like to give the house to me!!!
I knew I couldn't make it up there on such short notice. Luckily I've a
friend that lives not even three miles away and was willing to pick it
up and hold it for me. As of 11am this morning --she picked it up, and
sent me pictures. Going to share those with you guys as I've shared on
Greenleaf's forum. Cannot even begin to share how very excited I am!!!
Hope you all enjoy the eye candy as well! :)
