April Fools Day


I made it through the day without getting fooled, hooray!

More on this house below....I don't know how to put the pictures anywhere else but up top, sorry!


This weekend went pretty good, I didn't do much. I had a horrible headache on Friday, I had to come home early from work because of it. I can't seem to get anything done with my head pounding so hard I feel like I'm going to pass out. It was mostly a sinus headache, because its that lovely time of year. Last year I took sinus meds pretty much every day from April-October. Now, I can't. No sinus meds. No Excedrine. I'm going to DIE!!! Not really, but I am going to suffer, there's no doubt. The humidfier still helps a lot. I had the windows open in the house to let some of this lovely air in, and I wonder why my allergies bother me....hmmm....DUH!

But tonight I did have some stomach issues, but I think that had less to do with being preggo and more to do with my horrible attempt at making dinner tonight. You wouldn't think it would be too difficult to make fetticuini. But when I poured in the sauce I decided it was too bland, so I thought I would raid the spice cabinet and try to fix it up. Yeah, bad idea. It ended up tasting like crap! haha. Then to mask the horrible taste I ate a big ol piece of cake (which I baked at 11pm the other night! haha). So you can imagine what my stomach thought of all this.

So here I am, tired as hell at 11pm, but can't go to bed cause I don't want to lay down just yet. I took some antacids and they are helping. But ugh.

About that house picture now....

The house I was looking at in Pevely I'm giving up on. The guy was pushy and he just left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't need that shit. So I found this great place in Hillsboro, its one that got foreclosed on and isn't quite finished. Which means we can get it uber-cheap. And since Steve's dad builds houses (and taught Steve how to do all of it too), we can finish it for cost. And could stand to make 75 grand on the place, probably more, when we are ready to resell. Its some hell of a deal if we want to put the time and money into it. It would definatly pay off. I think it would be really fun to learn, yeah its hard work, but it would be really gratifiying to walk through your house and know that you did all that. So we'll see, I'm going to have Steve Sr. come out with me when he can to look at it and give us an idea how much it will cost to finish it. And hopefully the bank is really desperate to be rid of the place! I'll keep you all posted...
