The real estate guy came over last night.  He was cool…nice guy.  He let us know that houses in our area with our square footage are going for about $1000 a month.  That would be a *nice* supplement to our mortgage while we’re gone.  He said that we should be able to get someone in quickly because of the proximity to the schools and the nice area.  We decided against allowing pets and that we’ll probably throw in lawn service to keep the yard looking nice per the HOA restrictions.  We were even thinking about leaving the furniture, but we’ve got to look into storage prices.  We have to get storage anyways for the cars…I mean, we have THREE cars.  We have to put them somewhere.  I’d like to just sell mine and use the cash to pay some bills (Or even buy me a first class ticket over there….hehehehe).  We don’t have a car note now, and we should have tons if not all our debt paid off.  So maybe I can get a new car (pre-owned of course) when we get back.  It doesn’t really matter to me though.  I just don’t want to sell the two Mustangs.  I have no attachment to the Saturn.

I got the whole house cleaned last night.  Well, straightened up.  I need to vaccuum every room, sweep all the floors and mop.  And clean the showers and toilets.  But everything else is nice and clean.

Today’s To Do list:

• Vaccuum and sweep floors
• Mop floors
• Clean showers and toilets
• Clean out car

Everybody’s favorite time is here!  Monday morning!!  *fail*

I didn’t sleep at all last night.  I cleaned all day, did all the laundry and vaccuumed and changed the sheets.  I took a nice cold shower (I’m weird in the fact that I like cold showers…) and hopped into bed at about 8.  I didn’t fall asleep until at least 4 hours later.  Bah.  I’m still so sleepy!

And I screwed up and stopped for breakfast this morning instead of relying on my low cal staples in the drawer here.  I got some scrambled eggs and potatoes and 2 flour tortillas.  And 2 strips of bacon.  Ick.  I didn’t even finish it all, but I feel soooo gross right now…I could just puke.  I’ve chugged 2 bottles of water just to get the ick factor to go away.

We have a real estate guy coming to the house tonight to tell us our options for what to do with the homestead when we go to espana.  It’d be awesome to rent it out so someone else can pay the note, but then we’d still have to pay for storage and deal with the creeps when we get back after strangers had been living in the house.  I think we should just let it sit there.  Our parents can check on it.  Selling doesn’t seem likely, because we may not get much for it…IDK.

I am planning on making tilapia, corn on the cob (fresh) and baby potatoes for dinner tonight.  I’m not sure of the preparation, so I’ll have to look something up.  Maybe a marinade, but I don’t really want to stop at the store…I guess I have to though, because I don’t have any lemons or anything.  I’ll post the recipe here and take a pic if it’s good.

Today’s to do list:

• Find recipe for dinner marinade
• Go tanning
• Stop at grocery store
• Dinner
• Clean up
• Talk to realator

And just because this is funny:
