Our Crazy Decision and a Visit From Grandma Moser - October 16, 2011

Sunday - October 16, 2011
Grandma Moser came for a visit.  We always love it when she comes.  The kids love their Grandma.  She brought a birthday card for Brinley and one for me.  We just relaxed and visited while she was here.  When she first sat down on the couch, Molly jumped up and sat on her lap.  It was really funny.  Molly is a big dog who thinks she is still a tiny puppy.  Joyce didn't seem to mind it too much though.
Roger and I decided to do something crazy.  We are tired of this house, tired of this neighborhood and ward, and we are ready for a change.  The economy is bad and the value of our house has gone down.  Right now is not the best time to try and sell our house, but we are tired and we want out.  I think the floor breaking in the kitchen was just what we needed to push us over the edge.  It just seems like things keep breaking and every time we feel like we are in good shape and going to be able to get out of debt, something else breaks and we are even deeper in debt after that.  One of Roger's coworkers filed for bankruptcy and he was telling roger about it and how it all worked.  Roger came home and we talked about it and decided that it sounded like a good idea.  We'd get out of debt and get out of this house that we feel trapped in.  It seems like a win win situation.  It's kind of crazy and we are just jumping into it, but that's how we do things lately.  We're crazy like that.  After we file for bankruptcy, we'll have to move and rent a house somewhere.  We figure it would be a lot harder to find a house when we have a pet, so we asked Joyce if Molly could come and live with her.  She seems really happy with that idea.  Molly is a really good and sweet dog.  I'll miss her a ton, but I like the thought of being able to go and visit her regularly.  It's hard to imagine sending her somewhere where she won't be a part of our lives anymore.
