Going Private

Okay, so I really never planned on doing this, but something happened today with my parents mission blogs and I have decided that I want a bit more control over who may come across my blog. Let me explain. I received a call today that my parents name was being used in a Craigslist scam. This woman who was looking to rent a house in New Hampshire found an add for a place and in her correspondence with the people offering the rental home this is what they said to her...

"Thanks for your email and your interest on my House.It was a great pleasure to hear from you and the House is very much available to be rented,we are currently in Spain with my family where we work as a volunteer with the Missionary,I have three children two boys and a girl we are honest and caring people,here is the site http://spainbilbaomission.blogspot.com/ for more details about why I am here in Spain. I spent less time in the States so I could not get a hold on any Realtor to handle this rent issue, although it was when I knew how long we are going to stay in Africa that I decided to rent out the house. However, the initial plan was to sell out the house. which I tried, but sometimes the agents inflates the price and it takes longer to sell i am telling you this in case you find the house on another website, that is the old advert So I need a tenant to take care of it but since I am out of the state now,I have received some proposals regarding the rent, but I still have to make sure it is rented out to someone who can take good care of it. It includes facilities such as water and heat laundry facilities, air condition, internet and telephone access and a car park and other necessary facilities, also comes with trash collection, pets are allowed as well as long as they are not destructive. So if you know you are capable of the task,get back to me so that I can provide you with some questions that I would want you to answer."

Well this woman who found the add and was looking to rent the house just happens to be a member of the LDS church and knew what missionary service meant in the LDS church, and she actually contacted the local Bishop in NH because she thought it sounded strange and he of course had no idea who my parents were. She tracked us down in Bountiful, which sounds weird I know, but I think it was very nice of her to put the effort into letting us know. Can you see why I want to go private?? Please comment here or email me and I will probably make the change somewhere around August 1st. Even if we don't talk in person much but you still like to look at my blog don't be scared to send me your email, I like it if you want to keep up on our family!:)
