This Is Us

  In November we found this beautiful  Moonstone Orchid  at the grocery store.  It was so pretty and I loved the colors. Well, when it bloomed again it looked like this... I said in  This Post  that there are several different reasons as to why the orchids change color.  After reading everything on the tag, I found out that this company dyed them to be this color.  UGH!!!  Why?  I wanted my orchid to always be this color, not just once.  So, make sure that when/if you go to buy an orchid because of it's color it's not dyed and that is it's true color!

We tried to purchase a pair of sunglasses from Sun Glass Hut in Fashion Place Mall. He ran the card and brought it back to us, then proceeded to help 2 other customers while the card was running, not paying any attention to it. After a couple minutes he came back and asked for the card again because there was a problem with their machine and needed to run it again. So he ran it again, but then had to call. After 10 or so minutes said that the card was denied (probably because he tried charging us 3 times). We told him that we thought he charged us for them. He said that he would talk to his manager and if they had we could call and talk to her to get it fixed. So we left and checked the account when we got home. The money was sitting in pending. We called the Credit Union to find out what we needed to do, and they said that someone from Sun Glass Hut would need to fax over a letter stating that we hadn't received the purchase and that their machine was having problems.

So as you all know we are trying to buy a house. Well it's not going so good. Every house we've tried to look at has just went under contract. The three that we did look at, oh boy! The one smelled so bad like animal and children pee, that we walked in and walked back out. It was so gross. Xander said, as we were walking in "Oh, this place smells really bad (gag)". I don't see how they can have their children living in that filth. The other house had really bad water damage, and would take a lot of time and money to fix up. It would have to be completely gutted and re-done. Then the last house we looked at was good. It was built in '96 and needed just a little bit of work, that we could see. Well we signed the papers for the offer, and turned them in to the other agent. He said that he wasn't even going to send them into the bank (it's a short sale and the bank was going to reposes it on the 11th), because the bank had refused every offer he sent in to...
