Well, I've spent alot of time on blogger, but not to post... so I think it's about time I do. I fiddled with a million layouts, got horribly frustrated, and finally triumphed and got one to work. Yippee. So yes, ummmm.... news.
First big news... the offer fell through. :( But, no fear, we've already had two showings since then... one new one, and one a re-show. And we're hoping for more on the weekend. So now we're thinking that that one wasn't supposed to happen, and we can get more for the place, and maybe even keep the microwave. :) So yeah, back to not having an offer on the place... any takers?? LOL It's a nice place...... come on, ya know you want it. ;)
Talked to my dad this morning... he was about to go to bed. It was just after 8am here. He wanted to make sure that the Kevin killed in Afganistan (yes, we lost another one...) was not the Kevin my cousin is marrying in September... it wasn't, thank goodness. He couldn't remember the last name, so he called me to see if I had the invitation handy... I did, so we were both releived, and he went to bed. My mom and brother are off to Kashgar and the desert... wherever that is in China. It's a lot more southern than where my parents will be staying, which is in the middle of no where, to the far north-west. It's apprently been super hot all around there lately... high 40*'s, and the like. Yuck! Can't believe they're going to a desert... it's going to be worse there. Donovan comes back in a couple of weeks.... or a week.? I'm not sure. Don't get to see him though... I'll see him in September... My parents finally found an apartment in China. They don't get to move in till the 25th of August, but they're pleased with it. It's only 2 years old, and is a 2 bedroom plus den. It also has one of the nicest kitchens in China, or so my dad says. Which isn't saying much... Apparently they don't really do kitchens in China... hmmmm.... It's on the university campus, and is all asian themed (of course)... apparently the lady that runs the place designed the whole thing, and she's very particular and picky, so they were lucky to get in. It's fairly quiet, for China... not too crowded or busy, comparetivley speaking. I'm glad for them. Lots of loves happening in my family. :)
Anyhow, ummmm.... nothing much else to write I guess.... we're going up island this weekend! Yippee! Getting out of this place, and visiting people. And we won't be around to make a mess and then have an hour or two to clean up before a showing.... we'll just leave it all ready to go, and not worry about all weekend. And I won't have to cook. ;) Not that I mind, really. To save money and to eat healthier, we've started really trying to eat at home more. So I've been cooking quite a bit. But Ryan's a great hubby and cleans up the kitchen after for me... I do try not to make too much of a mess...... Anyhow, hope I can see alot of you when we go up for the weekend.
Totsiens....
