My mom was able to sell our house here in California with the new realtor, Codwell Banker. The people who bought it was a couple with 2 young daughters. They were the first people to come see the house the first week it was put on the market for sale with the new realtor. They didn’t have an appointment but my mom let me let them come in and see the house. We sold the house to the for $590,500 plus $2,000 credit for inspection/repairs.

My mom was able to buy a house in Aurora, Illinois. It is about 3 walking blocks from my aunt’s house. Our house is the same layout as theirs but with everything the opposite. My mom bought the house for $154,000. It is a small townhome but big enough for the two of us plus our dog.

We have the closing of our California home on March 1^st. We will rent a Penske truck and my mom’s bf will drive that. My mom will drive my car with me and my dog. We will start driving on March 2^nd and arrive in Illinois on March 5^th. We will then leave the truck with my aunt and stay at a hotel. My mom’s bf will fly back on March 6. We have a walkthrough of the Illinois house on March 8. The closing is on March 9. We will paint on March 10 and move in on March 10.

I am so excited because get to be with my 2 most favorite people/dogs in the whole wide world, my dog and my cousin.

Last January 19 was my mom and my dog’s birthday. My mom, her friend and I went to Outback Steakhouse for dinner. I had lamb chops. After dinner we went back to our place and I gave my dog some lamb chop bones. Then my mom blew out the candles and we sand happy birthday to her and to my dog and then we ate cake.

Last night I watched the dvd of Employee of the Month. It is such a funny movie. For all those who hasn’t see it yet it stars Jessica Simpson, Dane Cook, and Dax Shepard. Dax Shepard is head cashier and has been employee of the month for the past 17 months. One more month and he gets a new car for free. Dane Cook is a box boy. Jessica Simpson is a new cashier who transferred from another store. Dane Cook finds out that Jessica Simpson only dates guys who are employee of the month. Dane Cook wants to date her so he is determined to become employee of the month. Dax Shepard wants to remain as employee of the month so that he can get his new car. Throughout the movie they are fighting to get a star because the one with the most stars becomes employee of the month.

Go see it if you haven’t already. Very funny.
