Don, a very big chance. I spoke to the previous loan broker and asked him to hold it, just in case. I am very glad he is willing to do so and was even happier to hear he is willing to reconfigure the terms to compete with the new offer. My buyers are determined to save as much money as they can and I can not fault anyone for doing so, but I just had to say this is a very new experience for me. Never had that happen before... I'm still a little nervous, even after sleeping on it... I hope all goes well for everyone.

Thank you, Mary D.

Teresa, she seems to have been quite the little negotiator. A week, eh? Hmm... (LOL)

Judi, I love weddings and wish him the very best on making the right decision (LOL). The Minion Romance might make for a very interesting kid series. I shall have to check to see if I can publish the Minion Girlfriend. Her mom might not want her to be infamous. After all, toddler love is soooo fleeting. What is she gets dumped or dumps him? (LMAO) We shall see. ;-)

Jane, you's think destroyer was both their middle names (LMAO). Boys do like a good demolition, don't they? :-)

Gary, I have been meaning to go up there and take a peek but I just haven't been able to scope the area. Business has picked up and I'm working 12 hour shifts. Sometimes time sneaks away and 15 hours later... (LOL). It so easy to do this when you are having so much fun. My buyers are interesting. :-)

LOL @ Lise. Mine wonders what is going on between quest bouts of World of Warcraft (LMAO). I had to stop him from posting on Cindy's post. He wanted to be bad and I'm constantly telling him to quit it. One naughty minion at a time is enough for AR. :-)

LMAO @ Deb. The eeeeews have it!

Yeah, I'm really bummed out about Shea and keep thinking it wouldn't have been so bad to keep it and turn it into a very cool Baseball Museum. Some politicians have no imagination. They just want to tear stuff down to create a new building project to collect more tax revenue that dies with the demolition. They could have skipped this particular job. Seriously... Shea will be a parking lot. That sucks. 

Elizabeth B, they will look under a rock if they have to (LOL). "Life is tough" seems to be taking on a whole new meaning. :-)

ELLO Sheldon, my love! You must let me know if you do take a drive over. I would love to treat you to lunch or dinner at a really cool foodie paradise spot. We may even be able to Tweet-up with a few more Rainers for the event (LOL). Tailgate at the parking lot directly across from Shea, maybe? Oh my word, what demolition fun would that be? (LOL)

Jeannie, Booth Memorial is an awesome place. They recently renovated the maternity wings and the rooms are fabulous!

It is really strange to see one of my favorite places as a kid and young adult destroyed... Citi Field is coming along gorgeous. They wont let anyone inside to take pictures. I've asked twice but they're still working around the clock to finish for April and it's an insurance / security issue.

Susie, we should rezone some of them and turn them into short stay hotels (LOL). I hate when gorgeous homes just sit empty.

ROTFLMAO @ Barb. I love irony and I guess I've influenced my boy in his choice of what type of woman to gravitate to (LMAO).

Susan, I've been praying to God. My family and I are in the middle of improving a rental property in SC. We had to switch plans in mid renovation.  I feel as if I have one foot in the door and the other outside in the dirt wondering what I'm about to step into (LOL). I just want to make it to closing with as little drama as possible... 

Eric McG that makes a lot of sense. I always want people to do what they feel is best, yet I find myself wondering if walking away from a funded package to start over is growing-gray-hair material. :-)

Stacey-Ann, they are very cute together. It makes me sit and grin. I like watching them. It's better than television (LOL).
