My Birthday

I just wanted to say that today was a very fun and special birthday! I spent time with my close friends and with some friends I haven't seen in years! It all started today with my friend at work buying me a large cone hat that said HAPPY BIRTHDAY. I then went to my testing block which happens to be my first period where I continued to receive one large cookie cake, two mini cakes, a chocholate piece of cake, and one cupcake. I do not know why my students all decided to bring me dessert, but it was very thoughtful. I then proceeded after school to Yard House to spend the rest of my birthday with a bunch of my friends. It was fun and very exciting and I thank all that spent it with me. THANK YOU!!! Twenty-seven is turning out to be a great year already!!! (I didn't like twenty-six)

Cheer squad

So today I had cheer tryouts for the 2009-2010 school year. The tryouts seemed to go well and the girls all worked really hard before and during tryouts. I hope all goes well with my 20 cheerleaders and 1 mascot for next year. Cheer camp is in July in Irvine and if nobody hears from me...HELP!!!

more about the house

Ok...so I am now faced with the dilemna of hoping that the seller of the house (who is the realtor) will lower her price to $178,000 or I will not purchase the house. So since I do not think she will be doing this I am back once again looking for houses. I guess next time I will not be telling anybody about the house search since I seem to have bad luck. Oh well...my dream house is out there somewhere.

House Update

Ok...so many of you probably know that my offer on a house was accepted! Yeah me!!! Well what I found out today is not so exciting. Let me start off by first saying that I have a 40 day escrow and it started on April 13th and ends May 20th and I have had my house inspection and my electrical quote and I'm just waiting on May 20th.

Well today I learned this was not the case! My house was appraised at $199,000 but the bank only wants to lend me $178,000. This is due to the fact that the seller bought the house FHA and flipped it and then is trying to sell it and she has refinanced it with the FHA...I think. That or she bought the house and since she has not owned it for 6 months, that is causing the issue. All I know is IT'S NOT MY FAULT!!!! Ok so I'm a little disappointed and I hope she can bring down the price of the house.

The other option is to go with a different lender. All I know is I really like this house and I am praying it all works out. With only 20 days left...it better be mine! :) Well pray that it all works out.

Mount Rubidoux #2

So today I walked up Mount Rubidoux with my friends Jenni, Tawni, Sammy (Tawni's cute baby), and Reese (Jenni's dog). We took awhile to get to the top but once up there we decided to cool down and enjoy the great day. Walking down the hill was much faster and overall not that long. After we did our excercise we all went to lunch at Flame Broiler. It was a great walk and lunch. Jenni- only 8 more times!!!

Long time no blog...

Ok...so I just realized that I have not blogged in forever and I thought it was about time. I have recently been really sick as some of you may know and I am finally feeling well enough to think straight. :) So my life has been crazy in the last month. I finished up my last class in my first masters degree and now am going to start my next masters this saturday. I am still on the house hunt and everytime I think I find a house that I can live in....BAM...it's gone!! I am still looking and am trying to not get discouraged. When the right house comes along...it will be fine! House hunting on saturday...hopefully it's promising.

Mount Rubidoux

So I know I haven't blogged in awhile, but I thought I would talk about my latest adventure with my good friend Jenni. We decided to make a deal to walk Mount Rubidoux and when we get up and down TEN times we get to buy ourselves a sweatshirt from our old colleges. Well let me just tell you it was definitely an adventure. When we first got there I was going to take my sweatshirt but Jenni told me I would be fine since we would be walking. Unfortunately she was sadly mistaken. First it was a little cold, and then we reached the other side of the mountain! Oh my it was windy!!! By the time we got to the top I had to go to the bathroom really really bad. I never thought we would make it down in time. But we accomplished it for the first time and we will be returning! Only 9 more to go!! :)
