Oh What A Night

Joan is out of the hospital -yeah. But she isn't doing well - boo. We got a very alarming call from her neighbor today - ok I am sugar coating it like I often do when I sit down to write these things. I want to be Susie Sunshine but the fact of the matter is that lady was REALLY MEAN and she made me cry, hard! I think it was the "I don't care that your house just burned down" comment that set me over the edge, but the important thing is we (Mike and I - the kids got picked up by Debbie) went to stay with Joan until Pat could get there and he will spend the night with her and take her to her Dr. tomorrow. So she should be on the mend soon.

I had a grand plan for this evenings blog. A great wisdom that I have learned and wanted to impart onto you all. Lots of people have been asking what I've learned during this process and though I am certain this process is only at the beginning stages, I have learned many things already. But alas, the events of the evening have me too pooped to party and too tired to type so check back tomorrow - or the next day (Amy brought me some Tylenol PM).

For now, I'll give you the facts :

We do not know the demo plans for our house.

We do know that NOTHING will happen until after March 10th when Lenox can get someone out to inspect the Furnace - I got to Thailand in 24 hrs, they must be coming from the moon. Until Then (and possibly longer) it will sit as it is. I keep thinking of our friend's neighbors that had a fire and there house sat for 8 mos while the insurance company hashed it out with the builder but I try not to spend too much time there.

And yes, we are expecting more rain. I feel sorry for the neighbors who have to see and smell it. It's gross!

I would like to collect some things from the china cabinet and kitchen Wed. so let me know if you are up for that dirty job!
