I'm a PC and I am 31 years old!!

So, I think I can do this....especially after watching the little boy put together the lion and tiger slide show and the 4 year old that takes a picture of her fish "Dorothy" and sends it to her family! I thought I was techno savvy. After all, Kyle Meek and I were the Computer Monitors for our classroom in second grade. But, I think I have fallen behind! I know many of you want to see pictures....stay tuned, I should have some by tonight or at the latest this weekend! Maybe one of the kids in the commercial can give me a phone tutorial!

We've Moved!! And of course the Windy City gave us a nice Spring-Wintry Mix last weekend to move in. I would expect nothing less! But, we did it! I wanted to give some kudos to the people that helped us get here!

First of all, my husband, who has literally worked his buns off over the last 4 years to get us to home ownership in Chicago! He is currently down about 25 lbs. If he gets me a kitchen, I will try to fatten him up. I know how to make doughs now! (Courtesy Grandma Mary & Mom Connie- Shout out to Cooking Weekend 2009 Part 1! - Doughs = Pasta)

To Ed (most fabulous realtor ever), enter shameless plug for Dreamtown Realty....They definitely know coffee machines (my crack machine) and of course Chicago real estate! Ed, you truly do know my style. He was there with champagne in hand right after the closing! And Ivan...the nicest lawyer in Chicago! Hopefully, I don't need Ivan for anything else, but he was a very down to earth lawyer to work with through the process! Both of these guys, kept Corey "calm" while we were finishing things up on Wednesday, February 25th, 2009 in Chicago Title! Ironically, the same day that Cousin Zoe Smith entered the world! We won't forget when we got the mortgage!

And finally, Viktor and crew....these guys reign all the way from the Ukraine! They picked up boxes like they were feathers! And, took Corey's truck battery out to get the UHaul started when it died...with all of our stuff in it right in front of our apartment! Enter, Corey Meltdown Stage 6....

Of course, Big Mar and Big J...my very supportive and loving parents! Big J says we should have shot video of Big Mar's face when she saw the shape the house was in! But, they jumped right in and helped clean and pack boxes and, took care of the logistics, like getting the Internet in the house and ordering lunch etc!! Thanks Mom and Dad! And to Allyson Olsen for "getting her hands dirty" and helping to clean and take some loads over! And for being my "Jewerly watcher" this week! She really didn't have to, but she did. I will have to start working out if she decides to move out of her place....those stairs will kick my #$%&*!

We have made some progress.....so far, we did get a working toilet, got a shower curtain up, got some sub-flooring down in the bathroom. This prevents people from seeing you use the bathroom from upstairs! The can lighting has gone in and slowly, but surely the crown molding is being replaced! Got to do my other job now, so stay tuned for more pictures. I am Alison Fernandez Gullion and I am a PC!!!!
