Happy Wednesday Everyone.....
morning sunshine!!
maybe they are hiring in other depts too and want to schedule an orientation or training type day for more than one person??? it's more cost efficient -many places do--it'll come sweetie-patience...oh gosh ..how i know we both need patience!!!!!!!!!
the house counter offer was passed on--i was afraid it would be and so was not surprised to hear it tho it hurts! these folks just don't love my house enough and are hurt enough by their florida sale experience--i didn't expect full price but they were being unreasonable....and i guess even their realtor was nasty to mine! ouch!
anyhow
i gave my notice yesterday- so i officially have 6 working days -today being #6......it will hurt not to have that check but it is for the better right now--i will suck it up...we have been thru lots worse! in order to make progress toward the move, i have to DO something.this is IT!
michael's mood is somewhat improved but not fully my michael..he has shoulder PT today so will take me to work and i pray he is up to it with his knee...i must get him to a dr and he won't go- doesn't wanna spend the $$$$--whatever he has done to it ; it's not healing on it's own..swelling seems down but it is not "right"....
yahoo says it is 48* outside but that wind is cold!!!!!
well-sending hugs and prayers and hoping good things are happening in your lives today!!!!

Margo,
Sorry about the house deal not working out but the good sign is getting the offer....it means there is interest and activity out there. The right offer will come along.......I hope it's soon for you.
When I sold my last house in NY the original offer was $75,000 less than what I was asking (which was already lower as the market was starting to turn downward at the time). I was SO INSULTED....my Realtor told me to take my emotions out of it.....I think she even said if I love the house that much I shouldn't be selling it.....I thought to myself WELL, easy for you to say, actually I think I called her a "B" with my inside voice!!
Anyhow, I declined the offer and waited....about 2 weeks later the offers started to pour in and I actually had bidding wars between buyers and I ended up getting $5,000 more than asking. So hang in there......
Good luck with it
Ruth

good morning carla, margo and all to follow
it does seem cold this morning in Jersey. its just short of 6 am and the house is
feeling quite chilly. i just put up the coffee and my kitty is sitting next to me purring
up a storm. he thinks once im up he should eat, but its too early to feed him yet.
anyway, thats the easy news.
carla i hope that job starts soon for you, and Margo i sure feel your frustration with
the house. it will work out in the long run, it just seems that its been a really long
run for you getting it sold.
well the news here is that bob saw the surgeon and will have surgery on Dec 1st or
2nd, so we have a busy time coming up as he will need to go for pre admission
testing, and to see his primary doc for surgery clearance. the surgeon consulted
with the oncologist and they feel that it is more urgent in his situation to have the
surgical procedure first, and then the oncologist will see him in the hospital and work
out a plan for chemo or whatever they feel he needs, after the surgery. i liked the
surgeon and felt that he explained the procedure very well and answered our questions.
my mom is about the same, although she is trying to talk again ( but cannot be understood) and has regained some movement in her right hand, she seems to be slipping in other ways. each day is a heartbreak and my sister and I both feel that she is slipping away from us, as she
seems to respond to the nurses and aides much more positively, then to us. we have
been told that this is normal though. it is so sad for us of course.
hugs and warm thoughts to all in need, and again thanks to all of you for your good
wishes and prayers.

Jacki:
Sorry things are so bad for you. I'm glad at least the surgeon feels things are so urgent for your hubby that something is being done right away ... although that does not sound good, at least something is being done instead of nothing.
As for your mom, I know that's really tough.
As Jan said, I know a hug would help.
This will have to do for now.
