The BIG Day


Today is the day that we are closing on our house. We will be at the title company at 11am. I took the morning off to go to the bank, do the walk through, freak out...


Actually, I am more worried about the mountains of work that NEEDs to be done today. We are teaming with a large company to go after the Florida Marlins Stadium and the proposal is due on Monday. I have been working like crazy trying to write up plans for Minority Work Force Programs, Minority Business Participation, Community Involvement, etc. (Not to mention all of our company information.) I feel really sorry for the other company, it takes a HUGE effort to put together these proposals and then the presentation is on Wednesday, so they have to work on them simultaneously. Then again - they have a team of people working on this. When we go after projects alone, I often have to do all the work by myself. Oh well - I am keeping my fingers crossed for the project, because it is good for the company & for Steve. He would be a Superintendent on the job. I think it would be a dream project for him. He is a HUGE sports fan (especially teams in Miami), the company he'd be working with is amazing, and he'd have guaranteed work until Feb 2008.


Ok - I realize I got off topic. We are going to be home owners. WOW! I have already picked out paint colors for the inside & have a list of projects we'll be starting on tomorrow. Poor Steve!!!
In reality - he is probably more excited then I am. I always dreamed about getting married & having lots of kids. The house was just a secondary desire. He sees it as a wonderful project & investment.

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.
