I am so glad it's Friday. For some reason I have been exhausted most of this week. I have very little energy and my patience level is very, very, very low. It's been an exhausting couple of weeks. We decided to refinance the house and were all set with one company. They kept stalling and finally when I said we were going with another company, suddendly they were able to send out someone last Thursday to sign the paperwork. Keep in find, it was 5pm on Thursday. They had been dragging their feet all week and when I said we were going with another company they finally said, "ok, we'll close today". Too late. I had already started the process with another company and I am happy to say we are closing tonight. The added bonues was that this second company is able to get us a lot more money. We are able to do a lot more now around the house. Also, I am happy to say that Laura is officially on the house now. So, that means if something should ever happen to me my family can't touch the house. My will states she will receive any of my property, so that is added protection from the vultures, better known as my family.
Wednesday night we decided to go to the casino. I had gone last weekend and did very poorly, but thought I would give it another shot. We walked in with $70 each and walked out with $220. Not too bad. Plus, we had a coupon for $8 off dinner. One thing that I was mad about was when I went over to the $1 slots. I never play the $1 slots, but decided to see what $20 would do. I was only playing one token and instantly won $60. Now, if I had played the two tokens, it would have been $120. I got this one machine up to close to $100, but played it down to almost nothing. All in all it was fun.
Tomorrow Laura's oldest nephew and his family are coming up for the day. Landon is now 6 months old. I can't believe it. Anyway, I think we are going to Joe's Crab Shack. I LOVE crab legs and it's been forever since I have had them.
My goal this weekend is to 1) get lots of sleep and 2) eat lots of crab legs. Oh and BTW...29 days til our vacation. 4 weeks from tomorrow we will be on our way. I need a vacation more then anything in the world.

oh.. i am glad that is friday too
Yeah that you got a better deal on the house!
I don't know about your specific state, but in some states you can also add in to your Wills and Powers of Atty. people who are specifically excluded. You might want to look into that if you haven't. It's an extra added layer of protection.
I felt like this week would never end.
thank god its the weekend, but I have to work so it sucks for me. But enjoy your weekend and Thats awesome about the house!
The prez of Joe's crab shack used to be my boss in Houston...weird huh?
I hope you have a great time on vacation & that the next four weeks flies by:)
