3 Yr Check-up OR Going... Going... Gone!!!

Doreen took Natalie to her 3 year old check-up today. She is a perfect specimine of health! :) Not to mention she's cute as a button as well. At the last checkup she was growing like a weed, this check-up has her growing at an average rate. Which is good. I don't want her growing up to fast because except for some very whining moments - she's incredibly cute! She did great today at the Ped. He 'stuck' her finger for a blood test, she was brave and didn't even cry. Precious! She and Joelle are growing up so fast - I can hardly believe it. I'll have to post a photo soon, but in the most recent Bubbie-Box (A box my grandma sends with all sorts of clothes, shoes and goodies) Joelle found a pair of cowgirl boots that fit her perfect. She's been wearing those things everywhere!



Friday while were headed up to Dollywood, we got a call from our realitor who has been trying to sell our 3 acres in Vonore. We'd gotten an offer. He offered nearly $5,000 under our asking price. NO WAY. So we countered and faxed the offer that evening. Monday I called to find out what happened with our counter offer. Turns out I ended up talking with the owner of the realistate company and she tells me
that she told the realitor to hold off on the counter offer for the moment because someone else has entered the bidding fray. Hallelujah - two someones are interested in our property. The 1st countered to $3,000 of the asking price - but the 2nd person offers to pay full price if we'll pay all closing costs. So we counter with $1,000 less than the original asking price offer and they cover their own closing costs. They accept and put down $1,000 earnest money. Oh yeah! Now we can pay off that land and our car and then dig our vehicle maintenance column in our budget out of the hole. Thank the Lord!


So my two runs this week were/are leave out Mon night at 7p and deliver to 11 doors in 4 cities and then back home by 11a on Tue, then leave out at 1p on Wed run to SC and E GA and then back home by early, early morning on Thur. That's my week. Turns out every week I'll handle almost almost 80,000 lbs of product and rollers per week. No worries though mate - no stress, no stupid boss, just drive, relocate snack cakes and sleep and home with family! Ahhh - now this is the life! :)


C Ya Later!
