Listing my Property

I've shown my house a few more times, mostly just to neighbors who are curious or interested in the place. I believe that everyone wants it, that it is truly a special property, but that the times are difficult and so that's put the kibosh on people's hopes. It's been fun to finally meet my neighbors, after having waved at them on the street for 20 years!

I've posted some pics of my house here. I'll put this link over to the right, in my Links listing as well. I'll also be adding a link to my Realtor, who will be listing the property after we do the paperwork tomorrow. I'd hoped in the back of my mind to sell it by myself, but... LOL I am sort of relieved that I didn't, when I think about all of the legal stuff and paperwork that one has to do.. and that I don't know the first thing about!

I've had company for the past almost a week. John from Tucson came out with my tan Honda and he left this morning with my white one to take it back to Tucson. While he was here, we saw the sights, dodged raindrops and wind gusts, visited with Annette and Steve, Suzanne and Mary Elizabeth, played Backgammon and Dominoes, and enjoyed good eats.

Yesterday, we went to the historic West Baden hotel and to nearby French Lick, Indiana. When you visit that link, be sure to click the Virtual Tour at the top. John and I didn't see the rooms, but did enjoy the atrium and the lobby areas. What a place!

We checked out the casino, and John got lucky in the slots, leaving with more than triple the amount that he started out putting in. Ok, so it was the 2 cent machines! LOL! And then we hit the buffet at the French Lick Springs Resort, completely enjoying every bite we ate! This resort area is a real treasure here in southern Indiana.

Weather has been gorgeous today, with a few white fluffy clouds and lots of 70° blue sky. I hope that it is this way all across the country for John's travel.

Jack's doing great, keeping in close contact with me through all of this, via Verizon. He's making good progress on Al and Donna's new deck, which I know will be a wonderful thing for them. And, while I don't usually talk about future in here, I absolutely cannot wait to be with him again! -Ü--Ü-

  1. You should have gone on the train so that you could have gotten robbed by the train robbers. ;-) So friends of mine are some of the people who do this.

  2. Great page on the house. But I do have to say that the estimates of travel times do say something about your driving ;-)

    You know that a number of pastors I know are a bit lead footed. Some people in our church joke that this is a unwritten qualification for being a part of our church. Ever though of becoming a pastor ;-)

  6. Larry Bird - And for those of you interested, Janee is safe and sound in Big Rapids, Michigan. Gleefully helping Jack finish a deck he has been building for some friends. She will post soon.

  7. Hey, sis. I wanted to let you know the car is great! Thanks, J for bringing out, too!!

    I hope you don't think you are going to get by without posting much here now that you are in MI. We expect more postings to keep us updated, not less.

    I still wish you could get to AZ before the winter weather gets out of hand. I know you want to stay for the wedding, but a flight back would have to do so I could get out of the cold if I had a choice. ;)

    Work is going fine, the new boss, well, not so fine. She really is making life not fun...wishing I could find some way to get along with her or get her promoted out. Not likely going to happen soon. :|

    Chat with you soon...I hope. Love you, Sis.

  8. Well Sis, apparently the only communication we are going to get from Janee is via telephone. And then only if we call her. She is just so busy there's not enough free time in the day, or night, to spend five minutes on the internet writing in her blog. Jack must really be keeping her busy working.
