80 mile an hour winds and flooding

Well it is pretty silly weather here right now but as things stand we are doing well. It is almost 7:00 pm and we still have power and the winds are probably 20-30 miles an hour and rain is pouring down. I was shocked last night to discover that we were to have level 3 hurricane winds.

Scott, his brother, and best friend left last night for their annual "man's weekend" to Vegas and no I did not allow them to take the new car (Honda CRV). The Sierra Nevada Mountains are to get up to 10 feet of snow in the higher elevations. Scott wanted to fly especially since the return trip would have only been $21.00 each but the others wanted to drive. By leaving last night they missed the storm all together. They will drive home Monday afternoon unless Danny and Chad run of money before hand. Scott took $50.00 bucks to gamble with and turned it into $170.00 right away so he is happy an content sticking it in his wallett and bringing it home with him.

I worked the office this morning and had a walk in client tell me they were ready to buy. Soooo, Steven and I stuffed them in the CRV and took them to a few homes and as I figured they fell in love with the first one and we are signing contracts at 10:30 in the morning. Woooohooo another home sold. I will try to get some pictures of it in the morning to post because it is beautiful and huge...3094 sq feet 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom, living room, family room, formal dining room, breakfast nook, upstairs loft (livingroom/teen room) and all of the cool kitchen upgrades. The nice thing about this one is the house is complete so we should have a 30 day escrow which means we get paid in 30 days rather then the 90 to 120 days on the other ones we sold this past 2 months. We are excited that a house we sold on October 19th will be closing escrow next Thursday. Steven wrote it down on his calendar. because that means he gets a paycheck also.

I told Scott before he left that I was gonna sell a house while he was gone and sure enough less then 24 hours after he leaves I sold a 350,000.00 home. This will cover our Cancun vacation this December. Wooohooo. Mark your calendar mom and dad cause you will have roommates again.

Well I better sign out and play some Wii with little man before the power goes out.
