More Snow

We have snow today....but I am not goint to let it get us down. After all we have KU basketball to watch so why would we venture outside unless it is join other KU fans and watch the game.

I have photos to upload, because really who is interested in just what I have to say!?!
But I cannot find the cord to plug the camera into the computer...I hate being in between living here and packed. So IF it is in the house I am going to continue to look for it and hope it turns up soon.

ROCK CHALK!!

What a wonderful perfect day :)

So we have been trying to sell our house for exactly 90 days. On Monday we received our first offer....$8000 under our asking price so we were extremely disappointed and frustrated that this was the best offer out there. What if we pass this up and we don't get another offer. So we were in the process of negotiating the offer. We were able to get him to meet us half way by Thursday, but were still not sure. So Thursday night we were debating on signing the contract. Kirsten and I went for our walk to give Casey some time to think and I figured he would have a decision by the time we returned. Unfortunately, we received some concening news from a family member who we were more concerned about so we did not make any decisons. Joy was carrying the contract around with her thinking she would stop by and we could sign but I didn't have a chance to get back to her, which happened to be a blessing. We were suppose to sign before 7 and at 8 she called and said "the gentleman that looked on Tuesday wants to come and look again in the morning" She had told his agent we were in the process of negotiating a contract so he better get on it IF he was going to make an offer. By 11:30 Friday we had a CASH offer - I know not many people are carrying around this much cash but I don't care where the money comes from just as long as it does right - $500 under our asking price. I was floored and super excited since we had all the stress in the beginning of the week. We will close on May 8th. Inspections are scheduled for this Tuesday and then we can start on the new house!! We were very lucky this week and if we hadn't of been going back and forth with the first guy we may not have gotten the offer we accepted. Everything just happened to work out for us this week.

Should have just stayed in bed

Today I still have a sinus cold. Casey had it last week for a few days. Luckily Bryden has not been sick I hope it stays that way!!

As I slowly crawled out of bed this morning I sat in the bathroom debating on turning on the shower and making an attempt at the day or just go back to bed. You know that feeling that if you get in the shower you will probably make it thru the day but it is SOOOO tempting just to go back to bed. Well I decided to turn on the shower and head to work and thought I will stop and get coffee (+) that will make everything better, well.... it didn't make things worse. Today was filled with sniffles (-), employee reviews(/) , raise (+), nothing moving off my desk(-), lunch consisting of string cheese (/), Realtor (+), housing negotiations (-), stuffy head (-), trip to park and rec to sign up for classes (+), microwave cheese quesidiallas (/), runny nose (-), nick jr (/), laundry (-). I think the neutral and minuses outway the plus symbols today. Yep should have stayed in bed oh well there is always tomorrow it could be worse :)
