happy birthday bill!

not that he is EVER going to read this. but it's the thought that counts. happy 63rd birthday :-) i was supposed to go to the primerica training meeting tonight, promised my mom i'd be there, but what i completely forgot was that we had all planned on going out to dinner to celebrate bill's birthday. oops. obviously i can't really ditch the family, and i am NOT going to pass up a free meal at an awesome bbq restaurant. so primerica once again will have to wait. but tomorrow my mom is coming over to help me with the final exam, then i have to bust my ass studying and schedule the state exam! i have to get my license before we move!

i'm nervous. it takes a lot for me to study and grasp any subject, much less life insurance policies and variable annuities. and i still have to do major work on this house, because the landlords want to start showing it to prospective tenants before we move out. and of course there's the ever-demanding zachary to be taken care of. and i know i'm a bad mom and i will regret this in the future, but we just put a tv in his room last night, so that maybe he'll spend more time in there than tearing apart the rest of the house lol. we'll see.

we looked at a house yesterday. it's a 2 bedroom, 2-1/2 bathroom, 2 story townhouse with a mini garage and a screened in back patio right on the lake. it is actually a very good size, still would've preferred a 3 bedroom, but this one has both rooms big enough to keep her in our room or switch her to zachary's room later... the only problem is that the tenants there before left the place a COMPLETE disaster. furniture, clothes, toys, FOOD all left behind along with dirt and grime. so we're trying to figure something out with the owner that if we do all the cleaning and painting before we move in, if he'll let us skip one of the security deposits. all we're waiting on now is to find out if there's an association approval required for renters, and how they go about it. if they just look up the record, we won't get approved, but if we can meet with them, they might see that matt is not a bad guy and plus it happened so long ago! so hopefully we'll find that out by tonight. i'm really hoping for this place, it's still very close to my mom and paula, and literally right across the street from the hospital! eek. fingers crossed!

and now i have to do some cleaning. i'm supposed to be on bedrest (HA!) but i still have a lot to do. this house looks like a crackhead's hideout. so i have to do little by little, drink lots of water, and take breaks in between. ta-ta! <3
