Who Am I?

It has come to this.

Hey, friends!  Our house is still FOR SALE.  For Christmas by dear SIL got me this gift.  Today was the day to dig the hole.  It is frozen where I live.  I boiled some water and made a little warm muddy pit to put St. Joe into.  Facing the road, placed head first down.

 I have to admit it was difficult to explain to BB why this statue was going to help sell our house.  We are so, not Catholic, or superstitious.  Well, that was before our house was on the market for nine months.  Now, I'll stick a ceramic eco statue in the ground and even say a prayer over it, asking for help from wherever it shall come.

I am laughing so hard! (while also crossing my fingers) GREAT idea about boiling water to create a mud pit - hopefully that will help get it all working faster too ;-) 9 months on the market already?! Kudos to you for your determination - and maybe we can borrow him from you this spring ;-) Wishing you the best of luck - and St. Joe hopefully will get a vacation to Chicago soon! Love ya,
C

If I sell your house, will you start blogging again? :) (I know, I shouldn't talk.)
