Here's The Scoop
When last I left you (lol that sounds SO much like a soap opera) we were headed to Sioux Falls to find a house..Boy I wish it were that easy! Nothing ever is lol.At least not for us.
So WH and I wasted no time and got to looking for a house. I had sent the realtor a list of about 8. One we deleted because when the realtor called to set up the appointment the owner said our timing was not convenient for her. If we couldnt wait a few extra days for the open house then she really didnt want to show it..Ummmm ok..BITE ME...No problem deleting that house...
Between house showings we scoured the city for a hotel to live in until we could close. Hoping and praying the owner of what ever house we found would let us rent.By the end of the first day I had found the PERFECT house..Seriously WH and I walked in the door and both new instantly it was the one..None of the others even came close.
Best part is that we do not want to change a THING about it! If you dont know us then you wont understand how awesome that is..We have gutted three houses and I have had ENOUGH of that nonsense...
So this is our house...We are IN S.F!! So that means restaurants will deliver!! This also is huge to me..WH does almost all the cooking but about 2 nights a week its my turn..I hate driving to pick up dinner! Now I wont have too.lol
Get a load of my new quilt studio! Its HUGE!! I mean huge...And what you cant see is behind that bar is a gigantic walk in closet..Like the size of a bedroom..Seriously...And I mean LOOK AT MY BAR! hahahahah..I will have to share that with hubby though...
This next picture is to me one of the best features..A fenced in back yard! YAY US! I was so worried we would have to walk dogs for a few months until we could get fencers there..But now we dont have to worry about it. I will share more pictures but didnt want to over do it..
The problem remained though since the owner would not rent to us and we cant close until April 7 on where we were going to live with 2 dogs! Hotels were making me cry..1 room with a hormonal teen, 2 dogs and no privacy..Our realtor however saved the day. I love this woman..She talked to a friend of hers who happens to be a rental agent and found us a 2 bedroom apt. for 5 weeks..The price was a quarter of what the hotels were going to cost! We wont have to eat out every meal and we wont have to worry about the dogs annoying other guests..YAY us....
We got all that settled and hurried home. We have been packing fools since then. Man is my house a mess....I have somehow developed insomnia also...I am sure its all the stress..But its not a good thing!

Do you know what I do when I cant sleep? I surf the net...One of my favorite websites to surf is Rundisney..Sigh. Its been killing me that the 5k before the Princess half hasnt filled up yet..I have been very upset with myself that I didnt sign up for the 10k and the Glass Slipper Challenge...Oy...Guess what I did...Yup.I am now doing the 5k 2 days before the half. At least I already had all the costume pieces to pull of Minnie Mouse.. Hahahahahah
