Family Reunion

We just got back from a family reunion. I have never felt as much love in my life as I did in the rooms that we shared at our reunion. I know that Mom, Dad, W.C. and Dot were smiling down on us the whole weekend. :) I share them all with you! :)

Quotation: A good way to love our relatives is to spend time with together in well planned family reunions. A family reunion can be a very personal and priveledged gathering. If you have never organized your family for a reunion, start now-you will receive joy far beyond your expectations. ~Alma Heaton

Disappointment

I'm disappointed. I can't even write about it here specifically but I'm very disappointed. And I know that everything happens for a reason but this is the second time I (or should I say someone else) has gotten my hopes up about a life change and it hasn't happened. I guess there is a possibility that I am jumping the gun and maybe it's just my defense mechanism kicking in. Anyway, that said, I'm grateful for everything I have and I need to focus on the positive things going on in my life.

June

It's been nearly a month since I have finished school. I've been so busy traveling, maybe selling this house, maybe buying another house, trying to schedule a garage sale and getting things in a good place at work.

Mr. That and I went to South Carolina. We had a really nice time. We did a bunch of nothing and just generally had a great time together. :) It's just the way vacations should be. The one thing that I know is that I want to live on the water someday. It doesn't matter if it's a lake or the ocean, I just need to be near water.

We received an offer on the house and after much negotiation, everything is on hold. The folks who are buying it are on vacation for many weeks so we'll see what happens when they return. We have found a house that we like as well. It's also on the water and does need a little bit of work to make it our own. So we'll see what happens.

I'm putting a lot of stuff together to have a garage sale. I have much to get rid of.

Not much else is new really. I've been absent from here for a long time. Of course, I'll do better. :)
