Monday Monday

I've always wondered how the weekend seems to go by so fast, when the rest of the week goes by so slow... Even with my husbands 3 day weekends, they still seem to fly by.
We had such a nice weekend, looking at houses mostly, and went out to dinner on Valentines Day at Olive Garden- my favorite! I'm not sure who likes that place more, me or Kaitlyn. She ate SO much! We had a nice waitress for once and the whole meal was just perfect!
we went to look at a house out in Murfreesboro. It's really nice, in a great neighborhood, has new carpet and hardwood, newly painted in nice colors, pretty much move in ready. It even already has a fenced in backyard. We weren't in love with the layout though, but were still keeping it on the list, until we went to leave. The people next door have a huge dog, standing up to the top of the fence barking like crazy. So, that killed it. We definitely don't want to hear barking all night long, and as much as we are outside, if that dog would be barking the whole time, it wouldn't be enjoyable. at all. So we crossed it off our list. The next one on our list, we were planning on seeing the inside one night this week, well I found out today they have a contract and 2 backup offers! Who said the housing market is slow? That's the third one they had a contract before we could even see it. Another one in Hunters Point had a contract right after it hit the market, so we missed it. It seems there are lots of big houses for sale like ours, and the smaller ones like 1800 sq ft are being bought up fast. I guess everyone is downsizing. We really just want all the bedrooms downstairs, and it's hard to find that in Smyrna or Murfreesboro for a good price and not a million years old or in an undesired neighborhood. Ah well, we will keep looking.
Oh and something funny Kaitlyn is saying lately is "hgtv dot com"
