Boo Hoo!

So as we usher in the fall (is it still considered fall when it's 100 degrees outside?) and all the excitement that goes with it (Halloween, cookies, cooler weather, presents, baked goods, presents, pies, etc...), I regret to inform you that we did not get our house. I had such dreams for this house and all the memories that were all created in my mind's eye are just not to be. There will be another house, perhaps even this one when it goes into forclosure, but Kelly and I are maybe a bit tramatized. We'll recover but we'll gladly accept presents to help us deal with our pain. Obviously our address hasn't changed. (Commence loud sobbing) And because I'm Mormon and must always remember to count my many blessings, I shall name a few:

1. I can stop the tedious task of packing up the last 20% of our household belongings which still linger here and there.

2. I can forget about deep cleaning of house and let it return to it's natural filthy state.

3. Because I like to eat to mask my pain, I shall treat myself to Cafe Rio this weekend. Perhaps tomorrow. Anyone up for it?

4. Kelly and I can postpone the inevitable arguments over paint colors which I fully intend on winning.

5. Because I like to shop to mask my pain, I shall shop till I drop this weekend and use the extra mortgage money that we don't need to support my habit.

6. I got pulled over today for late registration and got off with a warning because Heavenly Father knew I couldn't handle getting a $400 ticket on top of everything else.

7. Because I like to eat to mask my pain (did I already say that?) I might go to Golden Spoon with snickers on top.

Well, onwards and upwards as I always say.
