Strange Visitor

Today was a pretty boring day when all of a sudden Mama screamed. "OMG!" Scout and I ran to the window and this is what we saw....

He was huge!

Mama said he just walked right up the porch step. That's what scared her. All at once she just saw this guy walking up and onto our porch. She opened the door so that we could see him better. Scout got scared and hid behind the chair.

We went outside later and he was gone. He was an odd guy. We didn't get close to him, but he was not scared of us at all. He walked around like he owned our place.

It's Hot!

Our weather has taken a big change. It's now HOT and humid. It's 92. We don't like it at all! We went from no humidity to this stuff overnight. We are depressed.

We had another showing on Friday night. Can you believe that? We had three showings in one week! No offers, but the people Friday said it's a "maybe". Maybe is better than "No". We are keeping our paws crossed.

Mama Caught A Cold

Mama's been sick since Tuesday, but she's getting better. She caught a cold. She hasn't had one since I've been here, so it kind of scared me. She sounds really funny when she talks and she coughs a lot. I've been trying to take care of her, but Scout hasn't been much help. Scout is very self-absorbed.

This is my impression of how Mama looked this week. LOL

The people that looked at our house on Tuesday liked it, but they have a house to sell. We thought they still might be an offer on it with a contingency, but they haven't.

Mama said she's kind of glad that no one else has wanted to see it this week because she really didn't feel like getting it ready to show. She's doing better today though and even took us for a walk this morning.

Another Day of Cleaning

It's a nice day here. I've been hanging out on the deck reading an old copy of Celebrating Greyhounds Magazine. Okay, I'll admit it. I'm enjoying seeing myself in the magazine.

Mama has been cleaning all morning. Our agents' open house was postponed, but we still have a showing later today. Clean, clean, clean.....that's what we do around here. Our vacuum seems to go non-stop. I miss the good ole' days of not seeing it for weeks on end. LOL

It's almost time for the showing!

There's No Place Like Home

We are home again! We love camping, but it sure is nice to sleep on the BIG bed at home.

We have been sleeping since we came home. It doesn't seem like we did that much on this trip. I guess we are just getting old. We didn't even want to take a walk this morning. It's raining, so Mama said we could just do our "business" in the backyard. Scout did run 4 laps last night. She's a nut!

We have an agents' open house tomorrow and then, there is another showing of our house tomorrow afternoon. We are trying not to get our hopes up, but we really would like to sell our house and start our next adventure. The average time a house was on the market in our area last year was 352 days. Yikes! We really hope it doesn't take that long, but it's possible it won't sell this year. We cannot be negative. We must think positive otherwise all this cleaning and work has been for nothing.

Daddy said the lawnmower broke last night. Well, it works but the self-propelled no longer works. Daddy says it's a heavy mower and is hard to push now. We are not sure what he will do about it because the grass has to be cut to keep our yard looking nice. Scout and I have offered to eat the grass for him, but he said no. Well, we tried.
