Internet! Rocks When It Works,

and stinks when it don't!

Friday night Chris and I decided to try our luck at the casino one more time. But first, we had dinner at Hacienda with Greg from Sullair. I've decided that the only thing I really like eating from there is the cheese soup. Nothing else has the flavors I like. El Bracero it is from here on out...unless I really want some Cheese Soup. Luck was not on our side this time at the casino, We went in with $15 and came out with only $.01. So good news is ... we only lost $14.99!

I had to work Saturday morning and Chris did a little work in the office until the security guard kept sitting down to talk to him, but hey now Chris knows that the guard was born on the SouthShore. That's pretty fun. We left for Kokomo after lunch on Saturday. We stopped at Menard's and then Lowe's for supplies. Next, we went to Olive Garden- YUMMY, YUMMY! OG is a treat for us now since there are none here.

Between Sat and Sunday Chris mowed the yard, I got all but the ceiling ready for painting in the small office and we made our way back to lowes on our way home to price cabinets. Now we have to decided if the investments are going to pay off, should we do them. We are also talking about having the walls in the small bedroom knocked out, expanding the bathroom and making a walkin closet for the master bedroom.

Today was about as Monday-E and Monday's get. The systems were down at the bank... internet banking and teller lines were (and still are tonight) down. It was chaos because we any one depositing cash we had to tell them that it won't be available right away today and if they are going to purchase things they should hold on to it. Most were okay with it, others threw a fit.... "I have a bill I have to pay over the phone... We couldn't sell purchase products and go figure- about 7 people wanted Money orders or Cashier checks and one person wanted traveler's checks. It was pure chaos. I heard a lot of, "maybe I need a new bank...." it got the point where I was just thinking, Yup, I'm all torn up, take your 5 bucks and go. And now, Chris is still at work at 7:15 tonight for some Ace meeting thing. He keeps calling to give me updates on when he thinks they will be done. Hopefully soon, I'm hungry!
