BiscuitMaker Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Well ladies I have sold my house and we have bought a new one!!! I can't believe it------ We really sold the house in Dec. but I didn't tell anyone because I was afraid I would put a hex on it. A friend ask me if I was going to sell and I told her yes, she and her husband wanted it and that was that but we had to wait for her house to sell. So in the mean time my DH and I looked and looked. It was so time consuming, 1 1/2 hour drive to the area and then all day in the car and then 1 1/2 hour home. Boy I was pooped. The house is new, and it is really nice, ladies a big walk-in pantry!!!!!!!!!!! Also in the back hall going to the garage is 4 cabinets made for childrens backpacks and stuff, like lockers large, well you know what I will put in them. The house sits on an acre, this land was a ranch and the man that owened it delveloped it for horses. So most people have 2-5 acres, and just a few 1 acre lots. Quite and very nice. On the out skirts of a town of 24 thousand. But 30 mins from the out skirts of a city of 600 thousand so for us this is good. Close to major hospitals. I am so stunned this is all happening. Now the hard part, I have to be out of my house by April 25. My buyers are moving in on the 26. So now I have to pack Moving my husbands garage is a nightmare We have to get a fence put up at the new place and window treatments. $$$ Well I will keep you posted as to the goings on, think about me and pray for me I need the strength I guess I am lucky I didn't just have knee surgery! The devil made me say it!!!! Link to comment

dogmom4 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 You have to save them on your computer first from the email.Then click reply under a post, click on the blue "file manager" link, then click "browse". It will open up a box that has all saved files on your computer. You have to find the pictures on your computer, then click on "add file", the "done adding files". HTH Link to comment

BiscuitMaker Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Well I go out to dinner last night and husband is home, he desides to pack a box or 2. I come home and he meets at the door and says there was a mishap while I was gone (this is not good news). He was packing a box and had it on the dinning room table, he pushes down on the top to tape it and the table (my antique table just breaks) My husband was mordified---it was just strange as if someone took the table and just broke the legs. After looking at it I am not sure it is worth saving, it might be better to get another one. But it is such a beautiful table.I have hd it 40 years---- Link to comment

Or perhaps you could recycle part of it into something new for your new house. Congratulations on your new place. Joyfully, Cheryl Link to comment
