QuietWhisperings

that would be summer vacation!  It was back to school time today  Alyssa was out the door at 7:40am heading for her first day of Grade 11!  Yikes. Grade 11. I’m old all of a sudden!   She had a good first day, slight mix up with her course schedule which she will hopefully have fixed tomorrow!  And Miss Megs was out the door at 8:20am heading for the bus stop to start her first day of Grade 5! She too had a good day, likes her teacher, was happy with the friends she has in her class this year…so yay! and here they are at about 7:30 this morning:

So, what else?  Finally got some good news last week…almost 2 years ago my grandmother passed away and the remaining family were all left something in her Will.  It’s been a long time getting settled but last Wednesday a very nice surprise was sitting in my mailbox…namely a rather sizable check!  Will there be enough to buy my land and get my new house?? I’m hoping. I’m really really hoping.  It’s going to be close…nail biting, nightmarishly close. But I think this really might be happening.  Finally something good!

Because the rest of my life these days sucks.  There was a guy in my life, had been there for a very long time actually – 2 1/2 years to be exact – and now he’s not – his fault completely, not mine, but that doesn’t make it any easier.  Nor is there anything I can do about it.  Right now I’m going to spend my time with this whole house buying thing…get the girls and I settled for what I hope will be the LAST time. Because I am so not looking forward to moving again!
