OH yeah, fergot to tell ya.. my VA Appeal FINALLY went to the BVA Judge the last week of May!!!! yeaaaah.. they musta sent it the day after i called em to see if they had sent it yet.. lol.. and my left hand has been itching like crazy off and on for the last week.. and i always get money in a couple days after it starts itching… sooooooooo.. am waiting on my letter from the VA saying my appeal has been approved and my big check will go to the bank on the 1st! weeeee.  oh and the really funny part of the whole deal with my evil sister?.. she signed a paper years ago when i first got my attorneys.. stating that she’d pay my attorney fees when my appeal is approved.. LAFFIN.. that will come to about 20 grand or more depending on when they backdate my appeal to.  I’m gonna make her sweat it out for a week or so trying to figure out #1: how she’s gonna pay it.. and #2: let her try and find me to get the money from me! LOL.

as time goes by.. *grin*

well, am all moved !! took two days to unload the truck, but it was worth it.  Had to do most of it in one day on account of it rained the night i got here and most of the next day.  But i’m loving the weather here, has been so cool! had a couple days in the triple-digits but humidity was so low, felt like high 70s .  has been in mid to low 70s ever since then.yep, i can get used to this nawthern weather real quick


All the cats and the rabbit made the trip very well.  no problems until i got about 50 miles south of where i was going, trying to outrun a thunderstorm in Virginia, when the wiper blades broke.. aaaack.. took 1.1/2 hours for the repair guy to get there and he explained on GMC trucks, they put in a safety switch on the wipers that if u run them on high—they’ll pop off the mount rather than let the wiper motor burn up.. so let that be a notice to any of yas that have GMC vehicles.. don’t use the high-speed wipers for more than a few minutes at a time or u’ll be stuck in a downpour with no wipers at all!


other than the outrageous price of gas, the whole trip was pretty uneventful.  The cheapest gas i found was for 3.71 in South Carolina and for 3.77 in Virginia.. everywhere else was 3.99 and up, so i didn’t fill up at them places! lol.


well, i formatted my hd yesterday, so still lots of programs to reinstall. talk to you again soon!  love, hugggglez and God Bless u all.
