News Update for Easter


We got the house & were selected for the Florida Marlins Ballpark! What an amazing week. Steve is going to be busy with both. We have already started working on the house. Last weekend, I spent about 6 hours bleaching & scrubbing one of the bathrooms. Steve tore apart the 70s style drop-down ceiling in the kitchen. He also removed the drywall on a few walls and we took out the carpet in the bedrooms. On Monday, we had Bug Busters come and tent the house. Now all the little vermons are dead. That is a great thing to do before moving in. We also called ADT security and set up the paperwork. We have to call them to set up the installation. This is extremely important since we are about two blocks away from an "economically challenged area" (the hood). Speaking of that, I looked on-line and found out that there are 17 sexual offenders & 2 sexual predators within a mile and a half of our new home. -more reason for the security system. I really hope that this neighborhood turns around as quickly as it looks like it is going to.


The in-laws are coming today. They'll be here for the Easter weekend. I have a lot of cleaning to do before they get here. Since we have been working on the other house, I have completely lost interest in this place. It is even hard to get motivated knowing they'll be here in 4 hours. I figure we will not be spending too much time here. We'll take them to see the house and then we'll go around Miami doing fun things. Tomorrow, we are going to have a bbq on the beach. For the last few days, the highs have been above 90 degrees. Hopefully, there are coastal breezes. It should be a fun weekend anyway.

about me

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.

For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.

Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .

Named after two Greek Goddesses, which were selected because I needed luck for buying a house and getting pregnant. I am not superstitious, but somehow it worked! The house was bought in March & I found out I was pregnant in June of last year.
