Saint Joseph sells our house!

some of you may know we had our house on the market...

well, we had on for 6 months with no bites.... took it off for 6 months to regroup and strategize... then in September put in back on the market.

This time my mother in law sent us some help

At first I laughed... but then I thought, why not?

Meet Saint Joseph:

 He is supposed to help you sell your house.  According to the directions, you should first dig a hole


 Then you put Saint Joseph inside the hole (he should be facing the street)


Then you cover the hole back up


And then you say this prayer:


"If" you sell your house... you are supposed to dig up Saint Joseph and put him in a prominent place in your NEW home.

Well by golly it worked because our house is currently UNDER CONTRACT!!!!!!  Yep, I'm a believer!

Here is the breakdown of the rest of my year:
11/11:  moving day!!
11/14-11/18: finals week (3 tests in this week)
11/19: start of my preceptorship on the MOTHER-BABY unit!! (SO EXCITED!)
12/16: GRADUATION from NURSING SCHOOL!

As you can see... there are LOTS of stresses... moving to a new city... graduation.. "hopefully" finding a job.

Wish me luck!!

  5. So now I need to figure out how to talk my girlfriend to go to my house in Texas and dig a hole bury a saint (facing the street) then hopefully after the house sells go back and get it?

    I mean I'm TOTALLY going to ask. It's me, of course.

    But how.... that's the question. :o)
