Nothing new...just tryin to stay postive

Nothing new at the Elliott house. I just subbed for 7 days of summer school...between that and the economic stimulus check which we should finally get this week thanks to a glitch in turbo tax, that should cover the gap in pay between Killeen ISD an Ft. Worth ISD.
We dropped the price on our house and are just waiting for some action. Someone looked on Sunday night,but no offers yet. We are praying and staying as positive as we can. I start work in Ft. Worth in 7 weeks...so we gottabe outta here by then. We don't have a plan B...the house just has to sell. So please keep us in your prayers. Everyone including me says that it'll sell...but some days, like today for instance, I just have a hard time waiting and get upset. So pray for the sale and pray for faith and patience on our behalf
Other than that, we plan to just do nothing fora while. Carsyn is a swimming maniac...you should see her go. She is amazing. Payton continues to get into trouble daily, but she's just so darn cute she usually gets away with it and makes us laugh. Marcus is probably bored to death by now...as most kids his age are. Scott is still chillin at the Budget Suites in Ft. Worth...and starting tohate it. It seems like a dreadful waste of money...and even though he's in a non-smoking room, he comes home with laundry that smells like a bar every weekend.
We are ready to celebrate our last Troy, TX 4th of July in our pool and attending local fireworks.
Nothing more to say really...just wanted to post all of this so you knew we were still around and do not give up blogging that easily!
By the way...any bachelorette watchers? I got sucked in this season and it's just tearing me apart...I wish I knew more single girls since three of the guys who got the boot live in the DFW area!

Have faith, and patience, like you said. Enjoy the 4th! 7 weeks till school? Yikes. (I know, that's a massive vacation for most people, but it feels like I'm just getting started.)

Yes, I am so into the bachelorette! What I like about her is that she's obviously looking for true love, not just a cute guy, as the last 2 to go were quite good looking! I heard she's engaged... who do you think? I say Jason.
I keep hoping for good things for your house. It's hard though because in a way, I love that you are still around here by us longer, but I know you need/want to head up to Ft. Worth. And we're ready to make a trip up to visit as soon as you do go!!

YES, I'm watching the bachelorette. Jason was my favorite from the beginning. I'm not so sure about the other guy though. I missed it on Monday, but I'm going to watch it on line.

Keep up your awesome positive attitude. Everything will work out.

Try to stay positive. I'm sure it's not easy, but you seem to be doing pretty well with it so far. Have a happy 4th!!
