Thanks for the note CaSSandra--nice to hear something positive from a fellow Navy family. Your husband was an Admiral? Wow...then you can understand how an E-6 can relate. I am so glad to hear your working on "The Road Home.." in New Orleans. My friends who live there say there are more than a few problems with the program, but at the same time they are grateful for the assistance that does take place. God Bless You and yours, and all those who help less fortunate ones among us. I am in Child Abuse Prevention with a govt. Agency as my 3rd career and I know you knw when I say the intangibles more than make up for the salary being sub-par. Its a Blessing to be able to do the work...good luck and God Bless You and Yours. BTW...I don't care if they have picked the winner or not--I can still dream. As the Stones once said '....lose your dreams and you will lose your mind.." We all have blessings to count and can find many others with so much less.

Fair Wainds and Following Seas, Cass!

Wow...a wrong number from California! There's a heart stopper!

:)

I know its wrong and selfish to pray fhat we win this home, but I believe my Lord understands. Really...and on the other side if we don't win I will know it wasn't His Will and be HAPPY for whoever it is. My Priest told me that God knows what's in my heart and all I can say his that when a winner is selected I know that will be the right one. I guess my wife and I are more than a little excited and the odds might be against us, but we're going to optimistic until the name is called and as I said--HAPPY for the winner. When He closes one door, another always opens!!!! Good Luck to us all!! Its been so long waiting for this day. I think this home is the most beautiful one HGTV has built yet and right in the middle of paradise!

Hey! We ALL have great taste obvioulsy, right? RIGHT!
