Update for July 2013 (So Far!)

Well, it is like trying to plan a wedding....there are people involved that you can't control, and it gets frustrating!!  What am I referring to?  The architect that is supposed to be drawing up our house  plans!!  We submitted our drawings and went over the specs in person with him around the 10th of April, yes, that's right, APRIL AND WE ARE STILL WAITING!!  He won't return our calls, we even stopped by his place and he wasn't home last month on our vacation, even sent a friend of ours over to check on him.....no answer.  I seriously do not know how someone can stay in business by not communicating with their clients!!  SO we are probably going to cut him loose and start over.  Thanks George.  Because of you we will not be in our new home before the end of this year!!  AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!  The most we can hope for is getting someone else to draw up our plans, getting our house sold, and MAYBE getting the foundation poured before it freezes this fall.
Lloyd is busy with another home build so he probably couldn't start until next Spring anyway.  The biggest sacrifice will be me and the dogs living with Duane's folks longer than we intended. Duane is having a camper built to live in over here in the Corbett RV park when he is working, and will come
home weather permitting on his weekends.  He plans to do that for at least 2-3 more years if he can stand it that long.
Anyway, we feel like we are in "Limbo Land" right now, not a good place to be.  Homer is getting near the end of his life, dealing with him is reminding me of how it was taking care of my Dad, only Homer just bites me instead of cussing at me, lol.  I am kind of tied down with him, coming home for lunch on my 8 hour days at work (Thank God I am close to home now!) and not going very far away for very long.  We went to a wedding last Saturday only gone for about 4 hours and Homer pee'd all the way down the hall and into the familyroom trying to get to the doggy door, I know he slept the entire time we were gone and couldn't make it, he is scared of the doggy door now anyway!!
Duane is tired, driving himself too hard working 6 days a week.  His back and neck are so locked up he can't turn his head, and the Chiropractor said ice it up because he couldn't adjust him. 
And as far as I am concerned, I am behind on my mammogram, annual exam, need to do a sleep apnea test, and need to quit my job before Christmas!!  My heart is so not in it anymore!!  I got a verbal warning at work last week about being late too much, part of me just doesn't care anymore!!  I am so over working with the public, people are so stupid, rude and thoughtless these days.  And those are the good ones!!  LOL....Well, I hope when I check in again things have progressed in the right direction....I hate to think all of these years of sacrificing won't reward us with some of our hopes and goals being realized!!
