Happy Thanksgiving.....

Hi everyone... just wanted to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving.
I have a ton to be thankful for and will be thinking about those things tomorrow as i spend the day with my family.

Hope your day is wonderful... lots of fun stuff planned for this weekend... more on that later!
Hugs,
Andrea

It's here.... it's here!

Finally!

Yes i'm screaming cause i'm excited... giddy like a teenager.... really.... it's quite funny! So, in a couple of hours i'll be meeting up with some of the girls to wait in line to see this movie. Finally! It seems like I bought our tickets forever ago for the 12:01 show... Ok... it really was in September that I saw the first 12:01 showing available to purchase and got them then... Now all 16 theaters at the Everett Mall are showing it at either 12:01 or 12:30am. It's going to be so much fun and freaking crazy to see all the people waiting in line and who is going to see it... I'll be taking my camera to take some serious pictures for the night!

Super excited.... (can you tell!)

An update on the Condo search, a new moon party and a fun treat....

The Condo situation....
i got a phone call from my Realtor yesterday... the bank came back with a counter offer based on a "brokers" advice... Let's keep in mind that this bank is in Tennessee... the broker is some guy/gal they hired to put a value on the condo. His/her advice... is total BUNK! seriously. The broker said the place is worth 50k more than the offer.

My Realtor and the current owner's agent talked and came up with a plan of attack and documentation to show the bank that the condo is NOT worth what the broker said and that it's been on the market for over a year... and that a couple other places in the same complex sold for just over what I'm asking.

I'm seriously proud of myself and the fact that I'm not totally freaking out... however... it's a bit frustrating that the bank has to be involved, but with times like they are..... I am really looking forward to not having to rent and to being able to own my very own place. I know that it is totally a God thing that I'm so patient with this... and that HIS plan is even more perfect than I can even comprehend... just gotta keep praying and seeking his will and strength...

Last night, i went to Southcenter mall in Tukwila. They were having a NEW MOON mall tour shin-dig... 2 actors from the movie were there... (people got to meet them before at a meet and greet, and poster signing), then Anya Marina (see below pic) performed... She is the sweetest thing and totally rocked. She's got a song on the soundtrack.

Then... these delicious guys, Daniel Cudmore (left) and Charlie Bewley (right - he was fun to listen to!) came out and did an question and answer session with Jackie from the Jackie and Bender show on KISS 106.1.
While waiting for the concert and Q&A, I met these twilight crazy girls... they were SO fun... seriously... I'd way rather have screaming ladies by vs. screaming teenagers any day... they made the night fun for sure!

And then... how cool is THIS. I've been participating in the challenges over here and get to be the guest designer for this week. I've had a lot of fun playing with Christina and Kristi... They're great ladies with a "small" obsession of everything Twilight!

Thanks for letting me share my fun news...
Andrea

Fun day....

I had a great day yesterday... Just cleaned up my place (which was a task in itself) and then found out from Cheryl via facebook, that her and a couple of girls (including my good friend Jen) were doing some challenges via the internet. It was so much fun to have some inspiration and challenge info to get the mojo flowing... So here is what i came up with for the challenges (i might have combined 2... tee hee)...They were to use a white background and a whole package of embellishments.
Not much else going on yesterday... pretty relaxing week, well... the beginning is anyway... maybe it has to do with the fact that i'm getting a massage today then a pedicure with my friend Sarah after that... Sounds like a good day to me.

I'm getting my hair done on Wednesday... i'll wait to decide on colors until i get to my hair ladies place... i'm thinking some dark brown and reddish... that will be fun for the fall...

Ok friends, off to work at the high school...
hugs,
Andrea
