New Chapter, New Beginnings

We closed on the house Friday, May 20th.  I would like to sit here and tell you it went through without any drama or hiccups but I would be lying.  And it continued even after we signed and handed over the keys to the new owners.  Jeff and I had so many problems with these buyers that it made us and our realtor not want to sell to them. I truly feel sorry for my neighbors on Western...they are getting some doozies. But as of 7:00 p.m. Monday evening, we are done.

We have finally closed the last chapter to the Jeff and Missy story...no more edits.  Its gone to print.  And I couldn't be happier and more relieved to finally begin a new life. I don't say that as a jab to Jeff because he is just as happy as I am.  We both have wanted this moment for a long time now.  Sure we will always have the memories together and our children...but the story has ended.  Time for both of us to write a new book. 

I am looking forward to new beginnings and this new chapter in my life.  I am going to continue to believe all the bad is behind me now and that good things will come.  I am going to do my best to keep the blinders off, hold my head up and see what's in front of me rather than looking down and wondering what I could have done different about the past like I have done for long. 

As a good friend of mine said just this morning..."Let the fun begin!!!"
