I just found out that my neighbor is going through some rough times.  She is a mortgage broker and her income was cut to about 10% of what it was during the peak of the housing boom.  It looks like she might get foreclosed on.

She really keeps to herself and doesn’t talk to anyone in the neighborhood so we didn’t know about her mortgage problems until it became obvious when she let the gardener go and the grass grew to a foot high.

I just love John. He went over and asked if she need help with the grass and said he didn’t mind mowing it to help her out.  (Now I wish he was more enthusiastic about mowing our lawn. HA)

I think it was his polite way of being nosy.

It’s been a long holiday … most of the time I’ve been busy with my girls shopping trying to find bargains on all the sales going on.

Britney caught the flu and luckly Sarah and John didn’t catch it yet… I’m feeling a little tired so I don’t know if I’m next.

Trying to find some time to write is a necessity just to keep my sanity while looking for work.  I’ll start looking much harder in 2009 when the girls are back in school.
