This morning I have been trying to reorder my cat's prozac prescription through an online drugstore. Yeah, my cat has his own account online. For some reason his account isn't working -- probably because his password has been temporarily misplaced in those boxes up in my attic. So, I asked for a new password. It's just not happening. It's not happening because I can't recall the answer to the stupid security question.
Who came up with the question of Who is Your Childhood Hero? Blasted stupid question. There are so many. Was it Rod Serling? George Reeves? Or maybe it was Howdy Doody? I dunno. Perhaps I said Mae West. Damn, I hate this. But I don't hate this next short sale listing. I love it. It's absolutely stunning for a home in this price range.
This is a 3-bedroom, 3-bath home in the Five Star Development in Rocklin. It's a little over 2,000 square feet, and it's a 2-story, built in 1992. The entire first floor is laid out as a circular floor plan. which is great if you own cats who like to chase each other, not to mention if little people with two legs each reside in the household.
You'll find an office off the entry, which could easily be converted to a bedroom is you really need a fourth bedroom. There is a built-in desk in the corner that is just about the width of a closet. Pop out the desk, frame it with 2 x 4s, slap on a door and you've got a closet; hence a 4th bedroom.
There is also a full bath on the first floor, which is shown in the tax records as a half bath, but it does have a full shower. I saw it with my own two eyes. The kitchen features granite counters, a ceramic tiled floor, a built-in wine refrigerator, and there is space for a breakfast table next to the built-in China cabinet. This is a great room concept, combined with the family room and its cozy fireplace.
Upstairs, you'll find 3 bedrooms and 2 more baths. The master suite has a vaulted ceiling. It is spacious and features a Roman tub, plus a separate shower, dual vanities in its bath and a walk-in closet.
