Anything I feel I would like to talk about. So readers be warned. Though usually it will most likely just be about my life or things that appeal to me.
just want something positive to say

Well I've been gone again for awhile. I've had a lot of stuff happen and I've been finding it hard to feel positive about anything lately. I didn't want to come on JU and whine and complain about how bad I think I have it. I know that there are plenty of people out there that have it much worse. I just feel like any luck we may have had in the past 5 years has come to a halt. Thanks to all the rain that we got here in Texas this past summer we are now in foreclosure with our mortgage company. I'm still hoping we are able to work it out. We have two months to try and work something out with them. Though each time I call they won't take one penny of the money I have available for them. I am now selling my dad's guitars and David's bass guitar, amp, and speakers. That should get me another extra grand or so to put toward the money when they call.

Christmas is coming and I'm feeling horrible that once again my sons won't be getting anything again. Though it shouldn't be about the gifts you give, but they are 15, 11, and 3. I can tell them that all I want but we all know what it comes down too.

My ex husband, the wonderful man ha, decided to stop paying the mortgage on the house in Ohio and had that foreclosed on. They sold it in auction and he of course it wasn't enough to cover what was owed. He was told in our divorce that he had 2 years to refinance it and get my name off of everything, which he didn't do. So now I have that on my credit also. Now they may start to come after to me for the money and if they do that my lawyer said I'd have to sue him to get that taken care of. oh yeah! more money I won't have. Meanwhile he's sitting nice and pretty with his over 25 dollar an hour check, free babysitters, and an extra income. What does he care if he's helping to make my credit even worse?!

Oh I could go on and on, but its going to be Thanksgiving tomorrow.

I am thankful I still have my house, my health, my family's health.

I am thankful that my brother and his boyfriend are coming over to celebrate thanksgiving with us.

I'm thankful I have made a few friends that are almost like family here and they are bringing their family over to our house on Thanksgiving.

I'm thankful that David's brothers are finally coming for a visit. I'll get to meet Steven's wife for the first time and his older brother Robert for the first time.

I'm thankful David has a new job where he makes more money and the rain won't effect if he's working or not.

I'm thankful to my friend Brandy who gave me a card she had today so I was able to cash in on a free hair cut!!

I'm thankful I look young, lol.

I'm thankful I have cable tv, phone, and internet. I know these things aren't really important, but they are sure NICE to have.

I'm thankful that I got to talk to Sabrina the other day and she gave me link to help out with our food situation. In helping me she also helped a few of my other friends here. We are all hitting some hard times. Thank You so much for that.

And on that note I have to get to cleaning, which I guess I should be thankful that I still have this huge house to clean still and not be dreading cleaning it. lol

I hear ya. Its been a struggle since we got this house. Well at first it wasn't soo bad, then the summer hit, then later the rain. Ah well. I just fret over losing it. I know we won't get what we owe on it. There are lots of problems with the homes around here and there is a ongoing lawsuit about these issues too.

ah well. I don't mind apartment living, I just really like that I have a HUGE backyard our son can go run around in whenever he feels like going out the back door.

It was a good Thanksgiving, looking on the positive side. My brother and Juan came over with a ham and 4 good bottles of wine. Debra and her family came with a turkey, stuffing, and soda's. I made green bean casserole and David made mashed potatoes, which everyone LOVED. We also made a small turkey, so we had plenty to eat and lots of people who love us there. Friday we had a good evening too, Debra and Brian came over for left overs. David had made a King's Ranch Casserole with the left over turkey.. mm mmm good. Then more friends came over and we had a small party that evening.

Saturday we went out for Juan's birthday, we were the only ones that actually made it out to celebrate with him. I'm glad we went.

Sunday we took Corbin to go see the "Bee Movie". Good times.

I'm glad I have family and friends even though sometimes I can't see all that I do have.
