YES! I just passed my real estate post-licensing final exam!!! I am so happy and relieved to have that over with, because now I can renew my Florida real estate license for another 2 years. I don’t really use it anymore… but it comes in handy. In particular, it is helping me save some money on the sale of my house.
SWEET!

Today started out with a bit of a surprise. This morning when I went to feed our rabbit, Duncan, I discovered he had passed away in his sleep. I knew something was up immediately, when I started to pour his food and he didn’t come out of his little house at the first sound of the food hitting the dish. He always tried to eat while I was still pouring. I just kept pouring because I didn’t want to lift up his purple rabbit house. I had a feeling what I would find underneath. My suspicions were correct. I found a cold, stiff bunny.
Mrs. Kraus had already left for work minutes earlier, so I had to call her and deliver the news. She took it well, but it was kind of sad because Duncan was a good rabbit. He got along good with our Cat, Jinx. Farewell, Duncan.

Hey Krauses. So sorry to hear about the death of your bunny. Little critters can be such a fun addition to a household, and its hard when they’re gone, especially when you’ve had them for a few years. Chad - hope everything goes well for you this next weekend - maybe we’ll get to see you while you’re in town!
Something very exciting happened on Friday. Our house went under contract! There was not much activity on the house for a good month and then all of a sudden there was a surge of interest, and one of them stuck. So we are very excited and the closing date is supposed to be early October. Though, we are aware that “stuff happens”.
Why are we selling our house?
The main reason is because Mrs. Kraus is interested in finishing up her 4 year college degree at some point. We thought that would be immediately after the house sold, but now she loves her full time job so much that I’m not sure exactly when that will be. One thing is certain though. Without Mrs. Kraus working full time it would be very difficult to afford our current house. Before we got married I had 2 roommates to help. And it’s ok that they are gone because my wife helps now. But to lose all help and take on college bills would be trouble. At any rate, we will be better positioned now for when she wants to go back. We’ll either buy something smaller, or rent.
Thanks to all the friends and family that prayed for us regarding the house. Mrs. Kraus and I ultimately desire one thing above everything else. And that is for God’s will to be done in our lives. We want to live where He wants us to live. If that is our current home, great. We enjoy living here. If it’s somewhere else, then we are excited to see where that is!

WOW! Sarah called me last night with the news that you have an offer for your house. I know that you put a lot of landscaping in this year to make it more attractive. I’m excited to see what God has planned for you in the next months—Jeremiah 29:11 Carol
One of the first things I thought of when I heard about the Nintendo Wii and the Wii remote was, “Wow that would make for one fantastic Stars Wars game!” Shortly after that I heard rumors of a Wii Star Wars game that would use the Wii remote for light saber battles. Fantastic. Today I decided to look for a trailer to see how they might be coming along. What I found looks really great. I’m not sure if this is definitely the Wii game they are working on specifically, but it is definitely a next generation Star Wars games. It’s called Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Check THIS out!
