New Roomie!!!!

A miracle has occured! I met a lady who I believe would be a great roommate!! I've been considering a roommate for years but I'm very, very picky. Her name is Kristin and she works a lot, on different days than me...I think he lifestyle would be upgraded,lol. She doesn't have a computer?!?! YIKES! Anyway...we met several weeks ago and she showed up at my office on Friday and we drove out here and took a look. She has other offers but I think it would be most FUN for her to chose me, lol.

I should know within the next few days. I would be so pleased to be able to pay off my debts faster!!

I will still have to eat beans and rice, rice and beans and get gazelle intense, but I feel financial freedom coming on.

On this note - I just want to tell a friend congratulations!! This friend earned approximately $250K by selling a single stock that he held for 3 months. It's insane but it's true - he was more high off the "win" than the $$, although I'm sure the $$ isn't a bad thing either.

Have a great day!

What happens...

When you get to the 100th Blog? One may feel as if one has reached a milestone and then quits? Or perhaps one is suffering a broken heart and goes into deep depression? Or maybe one simply can't find anything of significance to blog about. Yep, that's the 1.

Today, finally, I feel like I have something to contribute. I sucessfully purchased a new phone, sent in the rebate form, bought a wireless router for Mobile @ Home, got it all set up, bought and charged a wireless phone, bought and charged my new blackberry AND it all works!!! WHOOO WHOOO!

I LOVE being able to sit at the kitchen table and pay my bills or in my bedroom and watch Hell's Kitchen, yes - I know, they have to bleep every other word sometimes but it's a good show with really quality young chefs. And i'm super impressed with Danny who is only 23!!! He's a finalist if you're not watching.

Oh, did I mention it was only $10 to get the home phone #? Well, that's not 100%
true but I felt the value of having a home phone # to disuade my LDS leaders from calling me on Sunday NIGHT would be worth it!

Ok, next item...this is classic so I have to put some thought into it.

100 BLOG POSTS!!!

THis is a HUGE accomplishment for me. And, since I never knew that I should celebrate my 1 year (yes, it took me way longer than a year) to post my first 100 posts, I thought i'd take a moment and celebrate my small accomplishment.

Have a great day!

Happy Easter!

I really want this...I know it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Easter but I have a really HUGE table that I love but it's just too big and when Joanne and the kids were here, we moved it out of the room and into the kitchen. Again, it's just too big. I've seen this smaller version before and LOVED it and it's on craig's list for $150. That is a STEAL!!!

It comes with 4 stools...I sent the seller a message and told them I'd give them 100 bucks cash but after looking around some more, I sent another messgae saying I'd pay full price and to PLEASE call me!!!!

Happy Easter all...oh, this table is almost identical to the one I have, except smaller and I have chairs not stools but those stools are so comfortable. I think they sell this either at Costco or Freddy's because I've seen it before. :)

Good neighbors!

I seriously have been blessed. After the jerkoffness of Joanne and the stress of having them with me these past few weeks, it was sooo great to go outside this afternoon and bbq with my neighbors. I had talked to them about buying my house as well. They are going to think about it. They should talk to some people about it and I got their number so I could work with Kevin again.

We had a lot of fun bbq'ing. I pulled out the really huge bbq I bought about 2 or 3 years ago and have only used a few times (it is just me, after all!) and fired it up and went at it. They even went and got their daughter so she could be with us. We ate and ate and ate!!! They made something hispanic (meat and tortilla thing) and some wursts which I really liked.

I took some pics and just wondered how much Elijah and Julie would've loved to have had this bbq opportunity. While it's true that I work a lot, it's also true that I like to have a good time when I can. The weather today was fantabulous, sunny and about 70. It did get chilly quickly as the sun went down and the mosquitos came out. Yikes, it's a bit early for mosquitos too. Time to put the mosquito defenses!

I'll post some pics soon. I took some cute ones of the kids and family next door. It's sooo nice to have great neighbors. I feel so blessed.

Hugs,

Sharon
