"Yes, we did produce a near-perfect republic. But will they keep it? Or will they, in the enjoyment of plenty, lose the memory of freedom? Material abundance without character is the path of destruction"-Thomas Jefferson

When did I get so cranky?

I'm convinced cutting calories makes you more cranky. I swear, lately I've been like a bear on a rampage and poor Reagan gets most of it. Where are all the exercise endorphins???? Either way, I really think the biggest problem is the fact that we haven't sold our house yet. It's discouraging and fustrating when we want so badly just to get a move on...we now have big plans for possibly building instead of purchasing an already built home.

HOWEVER, that means we also have to find the perfect building site and as yet...we haven't found anything we're truly in love with. The setting MUST be perfect...the house will not be that large, but it will have a VERY open concept. We're planning and designing and wishing and waiting and just feeling in general limbo at the moment.

We hadn't previously planned on building, and perhaps God really wanted us to think everything through before we made any decisions, because now that ARE being forced to wait, we started talking about some old plans we had dreamed about when we were first married.....and that's how we got to the point of wanting to build.

So......here we are. In the waiting stage. And here I am, feeling like a Mama Bear that was awoken much too soon from hibernation. *sigh* Fall can't come soon enough.

  2. What is it about fall with you and Stacy? That seems to be her favorite season too. Yes, I like the leaves changing colors but I like spring. That time of year, it's not to hot and it's not cold. The only thing about spring is it bring pollen with it.
