Promise Acre: Our Journey

[promiseacres]

Bruce he says that but I frankly doubt he would ever take the jump. Not much of a risk taker... I guess that's why we (for the most part) balance each other. but it's frustrating when you know a person's dream won't be realized because it may not work out. there will be a better place. In the meantime I am trying to be content.

You should find out how much the property actually sold for. That way if something else comes along you can have a point of reference on value.

And just found out its set to close next week..... crying for a bit then getting back to reality...

Phooey.

That's what happened to us, every time we found a place that was in our price range, by the time we got up here to see it, it was sold. We bought this place sight unseen. It was a HUD repo and we won the bid. Maybe you should look up HUD repo's in your area. You might find a great deal like we did.

I've come to the realization in life, that when one door closes, another opens.
You'll find your place.

Yes, you're correct and frankly if we can wait another year or 2 then we'll be in a better place to sell our place for a better profit. Just need lots of patience! (& a barn )

On a horse note, might get to attend a competitive mounted orienteering event on Saturday.

Well ended up staying home today. DH smacked his face into his trailer latch Thursday, bad enough of a black eye he saw a dr Friday.... he's doing better but is taking it easier than normal as he had a lot of blood draining in his throat.... he does finally have a consult appt with a surgeon for his hernia.... not what I really want to deal with, another surgery but it is what it is.
On a good note kids helped DH get a fence up around the garden today...I was fighting a sinus headache most the day. ..am thankful they got quite a bit done without me.
We did have a family with 2 4Her's put pick out 2 bunnies and put down deposits. Excited that my bunnies are getting some 4H exposure even if my own kids can't show them at our county. someday....
New neighbors moved in today... was used to it bring quiet that way.... met the Dad once so am hopeful they're good neighbors.

Glad the family pitched in and gifted ya with productive labor in showing ya they Care about ya....

So sorry to hear about DH's injuries and maladies... I must confess that I'm confounded as to how anyone can smack their face into/with/on a trailer latch?

I've smacked my shins on the trailer hitch more times than I care to think about Are you referring to the latch part on a goose neck trailer? And also, how is that causing blood to drain into his throat? Sorry, maybe I shouldn't ask... Whatever and in any case, I'm sure it must have been/be pretty painful! Glad you got some garden fencing up and hope you (and DH) are feeling better soon.
