Just an Adventure

good afternoon! First off, let me just say that the bed at the hotel is OUTSTANDING! I usually toss and turn throughout the night but I felt it; I didn't move an inch last night! I didn't get a full 8 hours but it was close enough and I felt well rested! The bed was so soft and comfortable that I debated if I was gonna get anything done today as planned! So, Albert and Kenny left around 9 this morning to play Yu-Gi-Oh; as of the post of this post, Albert is 0-2 and Kenny is 1-1. I stayed in the bed and watched a little bit of some College Game Day... okay I watched it all! I wanted to see if Corso would put on the elephant head and he did! I got up and showered and was dressed and ready around 12:30. Husband called around 12:38 and told me about their first round. I got a map from concierge (who has been very, very helpful) and I was at first going to do a little shopping. I don't know what happened but I got off track and just enjoyed the sites! My tour of d...

Philly Life

It's really nice being here. I feel like I'm in a movie! Earlier today, I watched the world from the 7th floor and it was everything I had imagined from a 90s movie based in the big city! There were people trying to hail cabs, one-way traffic, police cars and people break-dancing in the park! I wanted to tape them but it was too dark! Just now, I decided to look outside because I'm actually bored out of my mind frame, and saw a lesbian couple make out in the same park! It was really cute, actually! They were a very, VERY young couple; look like they were no older than high school seniors! I guess I've lived in a small town for way too long; I actually got excited to see people walking around and hanging out at this time of night! Okay, okay; it's a Friday but even on a Friday in Lex Park, unless it's payday weekend, there's no one out in the streets! Then again, there isn't a huge downtown area to hang around as there is! I'm excited f...

Life in Philly... and Updates

Okay; I see that the last time I posted anything was in July! So, this is a rundown of what has happened since then! July I want to say that everything was going fine after our trip to Memphis. Ashley and Ramil were reportedly doing fine... until I get a phone call from both of them asking us to come get them! Long story short, they got into it with Ash's parents... again, and volunteered to leave. August Because we saw that there was a possibility that they would be staying with us, again, Albert and I decided to look into getting our own home. We were actually trying to find out the steps we had to take in order to make it possible. Never imagined that it was as easy as getting a mortgage loan officer to do a credit check! It actually happened at the end of July but we gave the Realtors a money order for their services; found out that Albert is only 4 points away from qualifying for our first house! We were told what was needed to attempt to get those points and started on that q...
