Really, 132 bucks???

So I mentioned last night that I got my wallpaper sample in the mail.  Let me just say that I am VERY thankful that I did NOT pay $132 for a roll of this wallpaper.  I really like the idea of this wall paper but it was just kind of REALLY tacky.  Holy wow, I just did not like it.  I know I will find what I really want but as I said...thank GAWD for samples :)  Ok here it is....

 

Really it doesn't even look that bad in this picture but BELIEVE ME it is bad!!!  Ugghhh and let me just tell you that I really wished I had smell-o-vision.  Cuz DUDE it smells like moth balls.  Hehehe and if I wasn't blogging publicly I would definitely insert a joke there...but I MUST refrain :P  Those of you that know me 'insert joke here'.  Hahahhaha I am crying I am laughing so hard right now ;)  Ok so that, my friends, is it for the night!!  I will check in tomorrow and let you know what is going on!

I have a REALLY good feeling!

Don't ask me why but I really think we are going to sell VERY soon.  I just have a weird feeling....not a weird feeling like this kid did.....

I just had a very strong feeling that we will be moving very soon.  I was putting Z-dog out in her kennel the other morning and the kids tire swing caught my eye.  They had built a ramp up to the tire swing and I just started to get sentimental for some reason.  Like I said, I just really felt like we would be moving soon.  As much as I want to sell ASAP I have to admit that I am gonna cry like a baby!!

After all, we brought both of the kids home here from the hospital!!  It will be worth it but again I am sure I will be bawling my eyes out!!

Let me just say that I am not the only one seeing dead people feeling like we are going to sell soon.  Guess who else is feeling that way??

 

Yep, my mom and dad!!  They are feeling so optimistic that they are getting our swanky new penthouse suite ready for when we move in.  They have already done some work so I thought I would share a little sneak peak.  Hope you can handle it....

Now they still have some work to do but it is a start ;)  Hahahhahahaa!!

Soooooo keep your fingers crossed cuz I am feeling lucky!  I will keep you all in the loop!!

Oh annnnndddddd I got my wallpaper sample but that is a topic for another day!!

Next idea....

I just talked with our realtor today and we are going to try doing some advertising in different areas.  Instead of trying to get people to come from the south to the north....we are going to try to get the northerners to come south!!  Soooooo, going to try advertising more in the Ann Arbor and Dundee area.  Hey I say it is worth the try :)  Why not???  I am down with mixing it up a bit!!

Now this is just my thought buuuutttttt I think we should put this picture in the paper ;)

 

Hahhaha now THAT would be the mother of all bait and switches!!  Ok, ok I am just kidding.  Gonna stick with our REAL picture for the ad.

On another note.  Did anybody notice the new feature I added to the blog tonight???  First one that answers correctly gets a .......

 

BOZO BADGE!!!

I know, I know...this picture caused plenty of nightmares for a lifetime the first time I used it but I just couldn't refuse.  Again, first one that answers wins!!!!!

I gotta admit that I am BUSHED tonight so I am going to keep it brief.  Had a crazy day at the office and am ready to call it a night!!  Soooo until tomorrow!!!  Tonight I will be dreaming of this....

our dream house.......

Our mystery showing....

Well they came a little later than we had planned but THEY SHOWED!!  Whew, all that work I did last night and this evening paid off :)  Well hopefully it did.  I think they liked it so everybody cross your fingers!!!  We will have to wait and see.

Now you know that I love to hit Costco for my flowers for a showing but I got some inside scoop on some local wild flowers from my assistant blogger from last night....

Thought I would remind you, in case you forgot that CONNI was my assistant blogger last night.  Anywho, she told me that there was a screamin' deal on some local wild flowers.  Here they are....

Holy cow aren't they glorious???  The best part??  They only cost me $4.99.  The other best part?  They were only about 3 miles down the road from us :)  It was just a local family that was selling them so it always makes me happy to help out a local business. 

So as I said I think they liked the house....as a matter of fact I think they said it was beautiful.  So, once again, *fingers crossed*. 
You know I refuse to get my hopes up anymore so as usual I will NOT get my hopes up but continue my shameless plugs to get this baby sold!!

STAY DRY TONIGHT!!

Mystery showing and Conni's visit!

Sooooooo, it is quite possible that we had an impromptu showing tonight.  HOWEVER, I cannot reveal the identity of them.  They were actually looking at our house for somebody else.  Oh and it is NOT any of Kwame's peeps looking for new digs since he was sprung from the joint!  Bwwhahahahahhaha!!
It is also quite possible that they are coming back again tomorrow night.

The identity of the pre-screeners for a potential buyer have been concealed to protect their innocence.  Wow I am full of it tonight.  It is possible that I am full of it cuz I had a special visitor and an assistant blogger tonight.  Wanna see her????  Wait for it......

 Awwwww doesn't she look oh so happy to be helping me out tonight??  Just let me tell you I had to do ALOT of editing before I typed what we were thinking :P

Anywho, like I said...showing the house tomorrow on the DL.  

Oh and remember that pricey wall paper I showed you last night??  Well I ordered a sample to see if it is really worth the money.  Since I know you are DYING to know I will let you know once I get it.

Finally, I had to take a picture of one of my magazines to show you my thoughts on my future dining room.  Can you tell I am feeling optimistic again??

Oh and Conni said we better have our new house built next year so we can do lots of Christmas baking in our new kitchen.  Hey no pressure or anything!!  Sooooooo that means somebody has to buy the house STAT!!
