I am still standing by with hope for the house.  So much so that while I'm away visiting with family I even bought a bottle of champagne for here, so we can celebrate _when_ the time comes.  Word back on the open house proved to have more traffic than I expected, especially since it was a mere 45 minute window.

Since I'm visiting w/ family I got to see Niecy Poo for a brief window, that was nice.  I'm also eating good grub like a crazy person.
