John Wayne to the Rescue

OMG a FOR SALE is going up in front of our house soon and very soon.

I have very mixed emotions about this. I am excited because it means, "things" are starting to happen, the ball is rolling and we are one step closer to being back together as a family... but I am also very nervous/stressed because "things" are starting to happen! Make sense? Good!

Selling your house is stressful period, so please understand if it scares the beejezus out of me and worries me just a tad to be attempting to sale our house by myself. With my husband in OHIO. As I am finishing up (my last) tough semester. And starting my P4 rotations. And.....oh yeh doing everything else that is our life. Please join me in prayer....please specifically ask that my sanity remains in intact throughout the entire process.

I have a list as long as my leg of "things to do" before we list our house, but we just found out that our house should have been listed...like yesterday...or ASAP...so I had to make a few calls today.

My sweet, dear brother is a life saver. He is coming to spend all day Saturday to

1. power wash our house and driveway
2. clean out our gutters
3. cut the grass
4. lay down pine straw and do some light landscaping

Wesley & Heather

Wesley, have I told you lately that I LOVE YOU! Thank you so much. You are the best little brother ever!

I also had to call in the head honcho, the cowboy of real estate 'round these parts.....No other than...

the one and only, John Wayne!

That's right, I called John Wayne today. I actually played Cowboys and Indians phone tag with the one and only today. Seriously, I am not kidding when I tell you that our realtor's name is John Wayne. And I am not kidding you when I tell you that he says "Howdy, partner!" to everyone, the above picture is on his business cards along with the following oh-so-savvy business slogan, "The Hottest House-sell'n, Gun-sling'n, Pilgrim Realtor Around!" (only in NC...)

John Wayne to the rescue!!  I am his damsel in distress! GIDDY UP, hunker down on those saddles, and hold on tight, y'all, because things are about to get wild!
