SNOW!

Yep, it's snowing in Las Vegas. It's pretty unusual but it does happen and here it is! Of course the news stations are playing it for everything it's worth. I must admit that they have closed the main road west to California so that's something.

I managed to give my cold to my wife so now we are two sickies in this small space. Talk about life in the fast lane. LOL At least I'm on the mend while she is still going downhill. There is a theory that there is a correlation between illness and disruption in your life - disruption defined as moving or the death of a family member or something equally important. Certainly we are having a lot going on with this move and all. At least we should be healthy for our closing - whenever that is!

This home buying from Freddie Mac (one of the federal home mortgage guarantee companies) is a pain in the ass. They are a huge bureaucracy that basically doesn't care. They have things written into their contracts that they simply ignore - things like closing will be seven days after the contract is signed! And they just act like it isn't there. I suppose one could sue them but who's got the money for that? We questioned our real estate salesperson and he just laughed. Said something like 'what can you do'. How's that for helpful.

Have a good one; even if it is snowing where you are too!
