What a day........

Friday morning I signed the papers to put my house on the market. That afternoon, I was getting phone calls from Realtors to schedule viewings. I came home, and I got DJ's bag ready for the weekend. And as soon as I was alone. I was finish things inside of the house. My house looks so good. Well, by Saturday morning, I had 4 schedule viewing for my house....

Now, I did go out last night. Manny, the other guy I had been talking to asked to met him. I needed to get out. After the argument with the EX and all the cleaning. I need some fun time.....

Boy did I have some fun.......
We met at a dance club, country. And we danced the night away. I could not believe how well we danced. We had so much fun. His friends that near by him were also there. Which was nice, I was not really alone with him. But we clicked so well. We talk like we have been friends forever. He kept telling me that I was so beautiful. He could not believe that my EX left me. But I could tell that we had chemistry. We danced till 2 a.m., after that I was hungry so we went to get a bit to eat(NO, Andrew, not that kind of bite) hahaha...... He order a grande breakfast taco and chocolate chip Belgian waffles. And We shared our meal. We acted like we had been dating for long time and it was our first date.....  OH MY....
It was a good date. He called me today.

OH, another major decision was made last night.......

I do know if I mention that the community college I go to. Is in the next town to where I live. Well, this semester they double the fees for out-of-district. I was pissed. That was the reason why I had to drop English.
Well, last night I was talking to my friend Susan, and I have decided to move to this town. I guess I could say the names now. I live in Portland, Texas and the community college is in Corpus Christi, Texas.
So I will be moving to Corpus...... It is a big city. That is where we go for clubbing or dancing, so forth.....

Well, back to the buyers, I was out of the house by 12:30 p.m., the first schedule.The second was at 1, and the 3rd was 1:30 to 2:00, and the last one was at 2:15 to 2:30. All back to back.

Well, by 1:30, my realtor called me to tell me that we have 2 contracts coming in (the 12:30 and 1) then at 2, he called and said we have a 3 contracts coming in then at 3, he called and said we have 4 contracts coming in.......

 Can you believe that......

What a day....... Well as of right now, we have 3 counter offers because my realtor work his magic. And the bid war began...... So right now, I have one offer that is 5,000.00 more than my asking price..... and the second and third are 4,000.00 more. I do have to look at the types of loans they have, but I am going to meet up with my realtor tomorrow morning.

So, It looks like my house could be sold in least than 30 days (knock on wood).........  I am so happy........

Now, for the bad news.......

The cable and internet will be shut off on Monday.......
So, I will only be able to get online at work, but I received an email from AOL. About this account is at risk of being cancelled......

You see, my EX is paying for this account. He is starting to feel the money crunch. So it looks like I will be losing AOL completely. Until I am able to afford it.

My Journal and My Online Friends......

What will I do until I am back on line......

While the buyers were look at the house, I was in Corpus looking for an apartment. I was looking for this company that looks for apartment for you. They had went out of business but I did see an apartment. The living room is so small. I know I have to get use to apartment living.. That is going to suck. I wonder how my son is going to feel. And How he is going to feel abouta new day care.....

I know one step at a time.....  but the girl who showed me the apartment told me of other company that will look for apartment for me. So I saw them, and I will be going on Wednesday to look at some.

Well, I better go....

I am going to see what research I could do online for an apartment and day care.....

Till next time.....

  4. I am sooo happy to hear that the house thing is not going to drag on and on.  Apartment living is not so bad, Just find a community that is not full of college students or young people.  Then you may hate it, parties, loud music, and off sleeping schedules.  It will be fine, your son is young enough to where he will be fine also.  It may seem like an adventure to move!  Just do not ever let him see you stressed out about the whole apartment process.  You can sign up for AOL yourself, it will be free for the first 30 days.  Plus there are many other places that offer internet much cheaper.  You may have to start a new journal under a new screen name for the time being.  AOL offers the journals for free, I do not have any sort of internet except at work and I got an AOL email for free!  Good luck!

  5. Hey Brin an AOL AIM account is free, so you can still sign up for that, and continue your journal that way. Glad you had such a good time when you went out.
    Changes huh. Delaine

  6. So happy to hear your house may go into a 30 day escrow!!!  Be careful on the contracts Brin - read everything and make them explain everything  [they are all on the same side - realtors, escrow - title company-they want their percent] so who is looking out for your best interest Brin?  Well we are here in J-land :)  I grew up in real estate BTW... bought my  tri-plex at 18...
    Hugs with Love,
