And the Lowes saga continues...

Well, this whole thing with Lowes has definitely been a thorn in my side. After writing my blog I still hadn't heard from them so I sent an email to the Customer Service department and included a link to my blog. I didn't know if they'd read the blog, but I was appreciative of everyone who took the time to read it and comment about their experiences with Lowes as well!

If there's a God in Heaven...

...He will see to it that Lowes dies as a company! I swear to God that I'm done with Lowes! The last few days have been nothing but a pain in my royal ass! Let's back up a bit and start at the beginning. So it was a warm day in June of 1980 and the world was getting ready to welcome it's most famous housewife ever, Brian. :) Just kidding, let's not go back THAT far!

Real Housewife of Snohomish County...moving???

Okay...so I've been VERY non-existent the last few weeks. This year has proved to be one that has thrown a lot in the way of me and my family. But just like we always have done, we've come out the other side stronger and ready to face what the world has to throw our way!

Dios te bendiga, Abuelita.

Here I sit at Sea-Tac International Airport waiting for a 6:22 AM flight to Houston where I'll be connecting to a flight this afternoon to Harlingen, TX. This is my first time to Texas and I wish that it was for a reason other than what it's for. On Sunday night, my sweet grandma passed away.

Superbowl Madness!!!!

I can't even begin to explain how crazy it is around here today! I've waited for this day for a LONG time! And I can't believe that it's finally here! It's the SUPERBOWL!!! Michael and I have been preparing all day, and have been counting down the minutes until the most exciting moment of the day...

Every Housewife Needs to Work...

That's right, I've said it. And I'm finally back at a point, after some conversations, where I think it's time for me to yet again, get a job. So I've taken the first step and accepted a side project with a friend's company to do some organizational work with their filing systems. This is something that I did for a couple of the other companies I've worked for and it's time to put these skills to good use.

It's a Real Housewife Fish Fry!!!!

I did something I never thought I'd be doing...I fried fish. Well it wasn't an all out fish fry as much as it was a "cook a few fish filets." I woke up yesterday morning and got Michael off to work and then went to work looking for a recipe that would suit my first foray into fish making. And with the help of Anne Burrell, I found it!

The House on Haunted Hill!

So, Michael and I are in the slow process of finding a new home. We have been searching (or I have rather) endlessly online and watching every show on TV about home buying and fixing them up. Yesterday we toured two homes, they were on separate ends of Mukilteo. The first one was nice, the second was a house straight out of the 90's and you could totally tell. Today however, we took a home tour that we will NEVER forget!

Funkity...funk...funk....funk.

I'm a horrible, horrible blogger. It's been quite a number of days since I last updated all you faithful readers on this mess I call my life. I wish I could say that I have been crazy busy, but the truth is that I'm in a bit of a funk. There are a lot of things in my mind these days and it seems that my mountains are mere mole hills to everyone else around me.

Prayers for the family of Sherry Arnold

Over the past 6 days we've been following a story coming out of a small town in Eastern Montana. A 43 year old teacher went for a jog at 6:30 AM and was never seen again. For the next few days the citizens of the small town and the surrounding county, with the help of local and federal law enforcement, set out on a search to find this wife/mother/daughter.

No rest for the weary...or sick for that matter....

Michael and I made our trip to Arizona to see my mother. As a big ol' momma's boy...it was very important for me to get down there to see her and make sure she was really okay. And I'm incredibly fortunate to have a husband who recognizes how important family is to me and will do anything to help me and my family out when needed.
