Today my sister Dawn and her husband Harry came to visit for a week. They just got here tonight and haven't even been able to see Kevin yet, but tomorrow will be soon enough. It will be a nice week and I am looking forward to doing something 'fun' with them.
As for something fun - there is a Renaissance Festival this weekend and I am hoping to take Kev and Breezy there. I have to find out the hours and see if there is anything going on in the evening as I won't take Kevin into the afternoon sun. I will risk it in the evening (after all we do have the Solumbra clothing), but the clothes don't cover his face and it's completely burned too. I hope he is interested in going. We went to the one near Pittsburgh a few years ago and had a great time. Kevin was particularly interested in the daggers and swords and things, lol. Then there's Breezy and I getting our faces painted and buying fairy wings and things like that. The differences between men and women, eh?
And I did find out that a very well known bank has agreed to underwrite the mortgage so it's all just a matter of time now. PHEW! I feel this HUGE weight being lifted off my shoulders just knowing we have somewhere to go. And I do appreciate all of the kind words and emails about me feeling like a failure because we are homeless. I realistically know that it's just nothing I can change, but the feelings are still there. It's all moot now though, right? Once again - A BIG PHEW!

Hearing about the bank going to underwrite the mortgage is a HUGE RELIEF. What a wonderful thing to log on and read today. That is fantastic news!
I hope your family's visit goes well this week, and I hope you all get to go to the festival and that there are fun things to do when it's safe for Kevin to be out.
Continued thoughts and prayers coming your way, but yay! Great news!
As long as you're upon the earth, you're not homeless --- this is your home and shall always be your home. The lives you have touched and the ones that you've been touched by will always provide you comfort and shelter.
And, as long as you are a parent and a mother, the label of "failure" can never be affixed to your name...God has and always will have His Hand upon you wherever the roads may take you and may you take solace in the fact that, throughout it all, you are loved and that is the greatest realization of all
Enjoy your family today. We love you,
Excellent news on the house!!! Have fun with your family and at the festival! I'm so happy for all of you!!!!
Take care,

Wonderful to hear that your family members have come for a visit.
We have a Renaissance Festival{Ren-fest} here also. Here they close the gates at a specified time and there is nothing after the sun goes down.
Get a big floppy hat once you all get there and an umbrella for Kevin to keep the sun off of his face. Make sure it is the size that they use at golf courses during especially during tournaments.
The one here has lots of trees that give off quite a bit of shade and of course almost all of the eating/tavern in the area have covered areas.
Goggle Renaissance Festive Florida and the area that its held in and you should get ALL kinds of info.
HAVE FUN!!!!!

Fantastic news about the mortgage! Praise God! I'm so happy for you.
Enjoy your sister and BIN. I haven't been to a Renaissance Festival in forever, but it was a good time. Jousting definitely sounds like something a male would enjoy! I imagine he would like the food too, like the big turkey leg drumsticks.
You're all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless and take care!
