Plans for the weekend? Yuppers…I have some. Not anything major …but plans none-the-less.
Today Jason and I are meeting our dear friend for lunch. I always love that!!

I was informed yesterday by my ex that the DirecTV account that we have (it’s in his name still) is going to be terminated as of today…so now I have to setup a new account. Not a big deal…but not exactly a fun process.
Jason and I decided that while we’re having to do this…that we’d choose to get the package with no movie channels (it’s cheaper) and get a DVR while we’re at it. It’s mostly a promotional thing when you sign up for a year of service. So after work today…we’ll be taking a trip to the store to get our new receivers and account setup…we’ll see how that goes.
Tomorrow…mom and I are going to have our hair cut and then to the spa for some pampering (just nails…a manicure/pedicure for me…and pedicure for mom).
Sounds great to me…especially after this past week. It’s been so damn hectic at work that I just want to scream! So…a day of pampering will be nice. We’re also going to drive through a few neighborhoods and look at houses for sale. Jason and I will be buying a new house as soon as we can. Probably not until this time next year will the process truly begin…but, I’m trying to do some research as to decide what neighborhood we’d like to move into. 
We’re meeting with out realtor on Sunday to go over some of the first time buyers information. I have a few questions…but I’ve been doing a lot of research into what programs are available to us. We have a few options….and a good friend who works for a mortgage broker…so I think that we’ll find a good deal and the home we’re looking for.

Originally we didn’t want to buy here in Colorado…but with the way things have been going and what we’re dealing with financially and personally with the kids…we decided that it wouldn’t be feisable to move out of state right now. I’m sure that we will at some point in time…but for now, we just want to get out of this house and away from my mother. Not to be mean…but we need our own space. There are so many technicalities wrapped up in the home we live in now as far as ownership and all…that we just decided it to be best to move out…let my mom have this house. That way we can start over fresh and in our place.
I’m looking forward to having that…my own space. I can tell you one thing…my house will not have clutter! I’m not a pack rat…so, I will not allow clutter and junk in my home. Yes…I’m very much so looking forward to that!!

Well…no kiddos this weekend…so hopefully I’ll get the chance to upload those photos for you that I’ve been attempting to do now for a few weeks.
We’ll see.
Have a great weekend!!

BIG HUG – thank you for yesterday. That was fantabulous! And remember what I was saying about my SIR being messed up? I actually looked today and yes – Jason is in place, but your site wasn’t on it. :grrrrrrr: I’m adding you back now and lets hope that you STAY there this time.
I don’t seem to be getting your updates either. I know I have not gotten around to posts much as I would like but I am not seeing your updates either. Must check out and make sure I am still subbed. It is weird have subs just disappear! Hope you and Jason find a nice nest for you…it is important to have that private space

Someday our house will come… I hope you feel better my love (she’s sick, folks
) 
When I was little we had a Sunday ritual…….church, lunch at The Surf(Nashville’s top seafood restaurant at the time and owned by friends of the family) and then a movie. At that time, there was what they called a Blue Law…….you couldn’t open theaters until 3:00 on Sundays. So that always meant there was some down time between lunch and three. So we would always go to Open Houses during that time. Before my Mother knew it, we were moving again…..Daddy had gotten another great deal on a house! I still love to go and look at open houses……..even though we have lived in the same house for almost 38 years!
