A Home

On Wednesday we bought our first home in Texas! Since there were no other viable options, my family decided to go back to the mobile home that we had originally been under contract for. We bought and now own a home, and are still debt free!

Who Am I?

I have written more than ninety, large books. My main characters are usually between sixteen and twenty. Almost always they get captured, but then escape. Usually a war is going on. I started the series by telling stories to my children, with no thought of writing them down. Then a friend told me that I should write them down. I lived a long time ago.
Who am I?

The Storm

I did not leave the blogging world again! On Thursday night we had a thunderstorm with hail, rain, terrific lightning, thunder, the whole nine yards. Anyway, the breaker for my dad and mom's room was knocked out. Since the weather person had said that there would be no thunderstorm in Bexar county, the computer was left on. That was a BIG mistake! As you may have guessed by now, our computer was turned off. When we turned it back on, the internet wouldn't work! Hence the reason for my absence. Tim got back last night from the conference in Georgia and he managed to work on the computer. This morning there was still no internet, but he told us to turn the computer off and then on again. And it worked!
We had thunderstorm watches on Friday and Saturday, but not much with it. However, there wasn't too much sun over the weekend. On Sunday at church there was mud everywhere!
Today has been another hectic day. My mom and I spent about five hours in the car this afternoon. We also learned today that we can't buy the mobile home that we were looking at. The development that we would be taking it to said that it was too old. I guess ten years is a bit old.
Before I had said that we are looking at land. We still are, and it is in a place called West View Estates. It is a development, but it doesn't feel like one. It feels like the country. It is outside the city, but we are close enough to everything we need for life, practically!

I'm Back!!!

Hi, it's me again. Today my sister left to go back to New Jersey and visit for about two and a half weeks. What will we do without her? Tim also left today for Georgia, he'll be manning a conference there for Vision Forum.
Right now I'm getting over a cold. Yesterday I went in to Vision Forum to work, but I had to go back home since I wasn't feeling too good. I hope to be totally better soon.
Our computer is working again. For a while it wouldn't let us get onto the internet because of a virus. You never know how dependent you get to be on something until you don't have it anymore.
My family is looking at buying land, and then putting a mobile home on it. We were under contract with another mobile home that was on land, but there were some major issues, and we decided not to go through with it. However, we hope to have a house and be debt free! What a blessing that will be.
It sure has been a long time since I've blogged. Sorry for getting so behind.
Here's a good blog to look at. http://thethortonfiles.blogspot.com/ It's the blog of Harry Thorton, a detective. He was created by James Thompson.
That's all for now.
