Escrow

PLEASE!!!! let my house stay in Escrow this time!

Signing two offers today. The primary offer is the "A" family. The A family placed an offer back in April but Bank of America kept countering them at $251k, so they said forget it and walked away. The A family is now offering a whopping $225k, seriously? They WILL get countered at $251k again. If not higher. I feel like this is just a waste. We have a second offer for $235k. This is considered a back up offer incase the A family is not willing to pay what BoA counters at. Now we have a second back up offer for $255k. Seriously I know the 3rd offer will get approved but we have to wait for the other two people to drop out first. This is a waste of time, why can't we just put in the highest offer and get this over with!! It is looking like I will not be out of my condo before my grandparents get here.

:-(

I just need to catch a break!

Sad Goodbye

Today Nicole and I said "Aloha" to one of our favorite families here on Oahu, The Stanford's. They are off to bigger and better things in Whidbey Island.

We wish them all the blessings that God will give them and hope we cross paths again one day.

We've had so many great times together and our girls have grown so close.

Tummy Trouble

So it's been 23 hours since I started vomiting. I know it's not something you want to read about but here's the timeline of my tummy sickness:

9:45pm (tues)- put nicole to bed at 9 and then lay down in my bed because I have an overwhelming feeling of yuck in my stomach. Try to go to sleep, hold in the yuck. Can't sleep so..

10:30pm- Here comes the yuck!

10:45pm- Cleaned up and passed out

12:03am- More Yuck

12:20am- More Yuck

1:13am- More Yuck and a lot this time

2:33am- Hubby finally gets online and we talk for a bit

2:51am-More Yuck then I finally get to sleep

6:15am- Nicole wakes up (this is extremely early for her) She asks for milk and I nearly pass out in the kitchen making it. I had to run to the toilet and grab my barf bowl while her milk was heating in the microwave. She did not go back to sleep after this but did bring me my water as I was drenched in sweat with a bowl full of yuck.

7:15am- We get out of bed after she watched Mickey on the computer and I try and sleep some more.

The rest of the day I felt like poo and couldn't bring myself to eat anything. It was miserable. I was cold, then hot, then cold again, now im cold but my feet are burning.

Now I bet that was interesting. I am off to bed now since I didn't get much sleep. The white bowl will come with me just incase!

For Sale....

My house has been for sale, just thought I would share it with you. The pictures were taken before we moved in when the Tolbert's lived here. Enjoy!

What have I done!

So after living with my new hair cut for a few days I have begun to realize that I do not like it. It is high maintenance and I just can't get the straighter to work right for me. I am going to shove hair growing vitamins down my throat for the next month and hope it grows out some before my grandparents get out here. Never again will I get an a-line hair cut. It is cute when the girl fixes it but for some reason I am not as talented as the hair dresser. :-)

I've been using this new supplement called Jacked 3d. It gives me loads of energy but is not switching my brain into motivational mode. Like yesterday I got a lot of laundry done and all of my phone calls made and class sign ups done. Wish it will get my legs moving and out the door to work out.

I added 2 classes to my fall semester so now I am taking 4. They only overlap for 3 weeks so I have two fall A classes and two fall B classes. I just want to be done already. I think in the spring once Nicole starts pre-school I will be able to get more done and actually be able to take real classes and not online classes, you can only go so far with online classes in the nursing field.

I signed nicole up for private swim lessons. So exciting! It was pretty cheap 9 lessons for $55 except it is out in the middle of no where. Well not really no where, it's in Kahuku which is 45 mins from my house. And this will be every Mon, Wed, and Fri. It is only for 3 weeks so I guess it wont be so bad. And hopefully she will learn something!!

Well off to the post office, and I guess I will wear my running shoes and take nicole to Central Oahu Regional Park for a little jog and then play time at the park. Looking forward to game night tonight and having some fun.

Impossible Possibilities

Ok....so for the impossible part:

It is currently 8:26am. I have a housing appointment at 8:30am in Kaneohe...I do believe it is impossible to make my appointment. Morning are not good for me. Especially when I live 45 mins away. I am just going to get out of her as soon as I can and do a walk in. Hoping I get put back to 1st priority and I get a house in the new neighborhood by my Dayna ;-) Ford Island did not work out the way I thought it would...if we had another kid or Ryan was E7 they would have gladly put me there. But you know, Chief results are supposed to come out today...at least rumor has it.....so maybe, maybe, by some miracle of God Ryan makes it! I have so many friends waiting for good news and I hope all of us get it!

Possibilities:

So I have seriously been slacking on diet and exercise. I feel horrible and gross and ugly. I need to recommence Operation Sexy Wife. It's so hard, I feel like I am so busy. My last full day at home was LAST Friday and by the time I get home it is dark and too late to go out for a run or walk. And like I said before, morning are horrible in the Bruno's house. I NEED NEED NEED to make time for myself and to take care of myself.

Well off I go to my 'walk-in' appointment at housing.

"Ewwww Get It Off of ME!!!!"

So what a wonderful day I was blessed with today. Many things to do, many people to see.

Church was great this morning. Pastor Carl talked about putting God as your cornerstone in life, not money, not family, not pride. He must be the cornerstone or all else will not stand and will fail. Loved the message.

Next was nap for Nicole and then we quickly headed to Bella's birthday party to drop off a gift and then we were off to see another friend in need.

Then I finally was able to meet some girls for dinner and celebrate a birthday. And while standing out front of the resturant I was hit, hit by a bird, pooping!!!! EWWWWWW!!!!!! I couldn't believe that I got crapped on by a bird. Oh wait and it trickled down to nicole. We both got it in our hair. Thankfully I had a couple true friends around to help me clean it off. Ugh, I have never been so embarrassed in my life. Apparently it is good luck.

All the while dropping Scentsy and Lemongrass off at every location I was at tonight. Wow I was busy!! And now I am tired!

Did not get to talk to my husband today. I think I missed my chance this morning when I was at church. That is ok though, since we talk everyday!

Housing appointment tomorrow but my darling hubby has forgotten to send me some important paperwork. Not sure if I should cancel my appt and just go when I get the papers I need or just go and have them turn me around and tell me to come back. Hmm...I'll call in the morning and see what they say.

No new news on the house, sadly. Maybe the bird crapping on my head is some good luck for my housing issue?? Hopefully we will hear something soon so I can have some time to move into my new place before my grandparents get here. So excited they are finally taking the trip to Hawaii. They have been all over the world, but never to Hawaii. Ready to be a tourist for a few weeks!!!

Good Night!!!!
