Reflections

We had a good weekend in Lincoln, but it was nice to sleep in my bed last night. Here's a rundown of our weekend...

Friday we left town about 8am. Had a very uneventful drive. The roads were clear and dry, that was a blessing. We pulled into Lincoln around 3:30. (our time) Went to Ty's house and chilled for a few hours. Later went downtown and met his wife at this Indain restruant called The Oven. It was SSOOOO GOOOD!!! Then we came home, stayed up late and chatted.

Saturday I got up early (Erik too) I had to be to JCP at 9am (8am for me) for an interview with the salon manager. It went great, I knew it would. I even met the store manager, he seems like a decent guy. Then I met up with Erik in the mall. He made it to 2 stores, the Game Stop and B. Dalton. We checked out the mall for a while, grabbed some mall food for lunch, then headed to the Realtor's office. We had a good long chat with her. She gave us copies of info on about 40 houses in our price range and in the neighborhood of the mall. She gave us LOTS of good information and even advice to Erik on job searching.

After that we headed back to Ty's and hung out til his wife came home from work. Then we went to a bar, met his 2 friends, then went to the movie theatre and watched "National Treasure". As you might remember, Erik and I saw it a week or 2 ago, but we enjoyed it ALOT...

Sunday, we slept in. (as best we could in a double bed) When we got up and around we went and drove by a bunch of the houses on our list. That really took ua a good 5 hours. It rained most of the day. I'm not getting too excited about any of these houses because we don't have the finiancing part of it done, and that could be a month before that is done. If we were to get excited about a house chances are good that it may sell before we can be serious about it. But there are about 3 that Erik and I agree about and 1 that we both really like. We haven't seen the insides yet, so this is all based on just doing the drive-bys.

Monday we got up, loaded up, fueled up and went home. We did hang out with Ty, Wendy and their awesome little kids for a good 2 hours. I nearly brought home their little dog Nugget, he's Silky Terrier, and I love him. Again the drive was uneventful. I'd rather it be uneventful than eventful.

In a day or so I'll go into the story of our original Realtor and the only house he wanted to show us. Thats a story all its own.
