More house hunting!

We spent some time looking at new houses this weekend. We had a house all picked out in Fountain, but we changed our mind about living in that town.
Anyway, my new house obsession is a new community called "Feathergrass" located near Constitution and Powers.
My parents will be happier if we live there because it will be closer to them. This house ended up being less expensive than the Fountain one - and it comes with a basement standard, and I like the floorplan alot more!

Ok..Adam Lambert is my boyfriend again.

Soo.....all is forgiven. Even though he annoyed me last week for what he did to Ring of Fire, I couldn't wait to see what he was going to do tonight. My boyfriend did such a good job tonight on American Idol! Yeah Adam!

American Idol - Country night.

Adam Lambert is not my boyfriend anymore! Dude! It was country night. He could have at least tried! Lil did! It wasn't really good, but she tried!

BOO Adam with your gothed out Ring of Fire song. How are ya gonna goth out Johnny Cash! NO No NO. :-(

My NEW Boyfriend for this week is Kris Allen. Go Kris!

Adam Lambert

AKA - "My Boyfriend"

Why isn't he already famous? LOVE HIM!

He is so talented. His theater background shows! (His Dad totally looks like Pat Sajak.)

I can find anyone!

My Mom thinks I can track down anybody. :-) I am pretty good if I put my mind to it. Anyway, my mom had lost touch with her friend, Gloria, and asked me to help with finding her. So I did the Google thing and got nowhere. Then I thought...FACEBOOK! I looked up Gloria's daughter and found a few people with the same name. I picked one and sent her a message. It had been a few weeks and I had not heard back so I thought I picked the wrong one - but then today while I was at work I got a text message! I was excited because it was my first text ever - and it turns out I had picked the right one! Gloria's daughter texted me and she remembered my Mom and gave me all Gloria's contact information. She lives in Salt Lake City and my Mom and Dad are going to Utah next week for a Family Reunion - maybe they can have a friend reunion!
I raced home after work so I could call my Mom. She was so happy/surprised/excited I had to read her the message two times.
She is going to call her tonight. I can't wait to hear how it went.
Yeah for Facebook!

I want this one.

(we will get the 4th bedroom option.)

And shock of all shockers - Darrell went on a Mortgage Calculator and - we can afford it! If you are familiar with my current house you understand why I was surprised. There is a HUGE difference.

The bad news - as of last week, according to Zillow.com, we are officially upside down on our mortgage. The last six months have been brutal on the value of our house.

So rather than boo hoo about it I am going to get to work! Many of my friends know I have been begging my husband to rent a dumpster so I can clear this place out. Guess what!!!!! He ordered me a 16ft one and it will be here Tuesday! I am so excited! He has been instructed to butt out and let me do my thing - and not to go dumpster diving to get back anything I have tossed out! I bet that joker is filled up in 3 days.

After all the cleaning out - the home improvements will begin!

Since there will finally be room to move - paint, paint, and paint! Everything needs painted.

Then - tile the kitchen floor.

I also want to take a portion of the family room and make a 4th bedroom. I might have to wait on that one because Darrell and I are clueless about framing out a wall and hanging dry wall.

Maybe by the time I get all this stuff done the economy will be better and I will be able to sell this house?? Oh! Let me dream! :-)
