First Financial said, "Yes!"
Now I wait 2-4 weeks to sign papers and then can finally break ground. That will be a peach champagne day for certain. Many thanks to West for going to bat for me. You are officially in the Big Hill village.
In less positive news, Somervell County is enacting a 90-day burn ban due to dry, windy conditions and lots and lots of dead grasses and brush. We had one of the wettest years on record in 2007, and field grasses grew taller than I have seen here so far. Now it hasn't rained enough to spit at in a month, so things are ripe for brush fires. Oh, this fire theme makes me nervous.
In even worse news, my mom's family is overflowing with illness. Aunt Quincy, our matriarch at 95 years old- and 80 pounds dripping wet- is seriously ill, as is my mom's brother Lloyd. And, mom's sister, Jackie is recovering from injuries after a fall. Mom is going from place to place doing sick visits. I am so thankful for the health of my parents.

I stopped by Big Hill Sunday and saw that the electric poles have all been erected. Now just need to have the trench dug and then I will have electricity. Digging the trench will be no small feat, with 100s of feet to dig, sometimes through rock.
A mixed week. At its end, I am slightly anxious and a bit in awe that this is finally happening. I pray for perspective and wisdom as the project moves forward.
