Our New Place

Look we are alive :D
We have been moving and not had proper internet so I have been MIA.
But We are back ....
The move has been stressful as it seems our family etc disappears when we need help.We manage it just takes a while.We have a
lot to go yet as far as unpacking and putting things away.
As for me I still have the infection and I am back on chemo after 2 weeks off it.
My body was running on over drive and when I finally allowed myself to relax I
was done.The pain and swelling went wild.
I am starting to feel better but no wild hopes here that it is going away soon.
Here are a few pictures of my view from my recliner,livingroom/dining room.

Coming Together

Things are coming together around here.My leg is feeling pretty good and not much swelling at all.
We are almost done unpacking woooohooo.
There is light at the end of the tunnel.I just hope it is not a train...
Anyhow we are still looking for another place since we seem to attract landlords from hell.
I must say I am looking forward to February and all the good things I just know it will bring.
I miss my blogger friends and really need to catch up

Next week is going to be better ...

I just know it.Not only is my Grandma knocking on deaths door but we lost our house.This is after a certain someone promised to make it happen.We were told each step on the way that it would be ours.
Well in between the time we made the offer and it finalized they changed there minds since hubby is now unemployed.So the person that said not to worry go ahead and bid,sign final papers and pay the down payment failed.I mean FAILED...I am more hurt that this happened.So no new house no new store no new stove.Do you think the stove would look good in our bedroom j/k of course.
I have been through so many emotions and kleenex this week it is unreal but alas the week is ending.
Next week will be awesome.I know it will be better and we are deciding what to do next..move stateside or stay here.

About that house

(update :
they called and went down so looks like we are still getting the house woohoo)The update is in parenthesis Des)

So if you follow me on FB or Twitter you know we found a house.It was a perfect for us house.4 bedrooms all on one floor etc.So we made an offer and recieved a letter from an attorney(this is part of an estate)so we all(us and the attorney) assumed they accepted the offer.2weeks later we were called by the real estate agent and he informed us that the offer was not accepted.So we get another letter saying they are meeting with their attorney this week.Yesterday we got a call with a counter offer.These people wont budge even though their attorney advised them to accept it.Let me explain how the system works here with estates.If a house is in an estate the heirs have one year to sell it.If it doesnt sell they then have to purchase it so the estate can be closed.This house has been on the market since the start of feb and no one has even looked at it.....oh well off to find another not so perfect house
