Sunday gratitudes

I haven't done this for a while, shame on me!

1. I'm grateful that I have two very healthy girls. They are doing so well since we moved. They are doing well in school. Faith is getting the help she needs with reading and writing. She has great teachers. :)

2. I'm grateful that we found a Realtor to help us sell our house and do what we need to do for a short sale. I'll miss that beautiful house.

3. I'm grateful for new friends at my new church. It was nice to sit with them this morning and not have to sit by myself.

4. I'm grateful that we found a church that we fit into to, and that teaches God's Word to us. My church also has a great worship team that leads us with great songs.

5. I'm grateful that we found a nice, little, house in a nice neighborhood. It will be a nice, little, home for us to live in until we can buy a bigger house.

I hope you all have a great week.

Howdy Peeps!

How are things going out there in blog land? They are going up and down here. Ups first, my sister-in-law is about to have a baby!!!!!!!!! She's expecting a boy at any time, we are all so excited. My grandma is doing awesome! She went out to dinner with friends just a week after she fell down the escalator. Just thinking how bad it could have been makes me shiver. I've been working pretty steadily with subbing for our school district. I don't usually have to drive very far, and have had some great jobs. :)

Down: We had a comp ran on our house and it came in a little over 1/2 of what we bought the house for. So it looks like we're going to try to short sale it since we can't sell it for what we bought it for. :( I hate to walk away from it, but we can't afford to have two houses until the market rebounds, which could be years and years.

Other than that bit of bad news, things are going great. The girls love school, and seem to be doing pretty well. :)

My Grandma is doing much better

She's in a normal room and they are going to continue monitoring her clot. Thanks for all of you who are praying for her. She's going to continue to need prayers until that clot is gone. She's going to need daily CAT scans for a while to monitor it.

My aunt who also live in Houston is already talking to a lawyer, so that is good. There are going to be some hefty medical bills.

Prayers for my Grandma

Can you please keep my Grandma, Marilyn in your prayers. She fell down a complete flight of escalators today. She is in the ICU with a head injury. Looks like she had a clot between her brain and her skull. They are going to rescan her in the morning to see if it has changed in size. Please pray that she makes it through the night and that the scan shows good news in the morning. I will keep you updated on her progress.
