Just Hanging in There

Life is just chugging along.  We still have Logan and will for another few weeks.  This is his time and he looks forward to it every year.  We try to make it a fun time for him and make memories that will a lifetime.  Friday we took him to a Charlotte Knights baseball game (minor league) and of course Grandpa got tickets for the Diamond Direct Luxury Lounge which includes air-conditioning, full buffet and separate outside seating for the game.  A little excitement when a foul ball bounced off the railing right in front of Logan and grandpa.  Thank goodness it hit the railing or it would have been a different story.  That was enough for Logan, so we spent the rest of the game inside watching on the wall-to-wall televisions and hitting the buffet until it was time for fireworks.

Through a series of internet searches and coincidences, we may have found a house this last weekend.  It would move us out of NC to SC which is no big heartbreak.  Things have changed so much in just the 3 years we have been here and the housing costs are almost astronomical.  Anyway - I found some new builds in York, SC so we decided Saturday to do a drive by to see what this new subdivision was like.  All new houses, and still under construction...we decided to stop and talk to the sales dept.  They showed us a few houses and we agreed on one, which if you know us, you should know that doesn't happen often. Our only problem is the distance to Jim's office, but as he reminded me, when we lived in FL he was driving 30+ minutes to work everyday he was in the office.  Then he reminded me that he isn't in the office that much these days, that he is back to traveling.  We are so spoiled living here with all our shopping no more than 3-4 miles away, that I was questioning whether I wanted to move or not.  We decided to go back Sunday and look around the town and found almost all the conveniences that we have here were only 2-3 miles away from where our house would be located.  So....I'm meeting our realtor at the neighborhood Wed for her to grill the sales department and ask the questions we never thought to ask....guess that's why she gets paid !!!  We are not pushing anything but are leaving it in God's hands as to whether this is the right move or not. If it is God's will, things will work out...if not, then we take another route. 

As for my sister-in -law,  the Dr's finally found the source of her infection - small intestinal leak - did emergency surgery and now they are trying to clear up the infections and get her on the mend.  She is off the ventilator and from what I have heard is getting quite testy...lol  It's been a long journey and more to go but we are praying she makes a complete recovery.
