What a Weekend!

This weekend was awesome. Friday, we didn't do much, but the rest of the time was great. Saturday, we got up and went to my neice's birthday party (which was O.K.), but immediately from there, we went to Belterra. The complex was pretty big and had a lot of amenities. Chris and I dumped our bags in the room and went directly to the casino. Within an hour and a half, I dropped $140 on fucking slots. Ugh. Then we went to dinner at Jeff Ruby's. DEEE-LISH. We both got 12 oz. filets, garlic mashed potatoes and a bottle of wine. So then, we went back up to the room so that I could change into some more comfortable clothes. Back to the casino. Chris sat at a Blackjack table the rest of the night and I wandered from slot machine to slot machine. I decided this pretty quickly: I HATE video slots. I don't trust them and they're just not the same as the real deal. I started losing more cash and getting pretty drunk. With my last $4.75 left in the machine before going to withdrawal more money, I hit. I couldn't tell you what the bonus was called, but I watched as it kept going, and going, and going. I started out with $300 and almost went totally bust, but I ended up winning $403. YIPPEEEE! With that, I called it a night and went up to the room and passed out.

Today, on the way home from Belterra, we stopped in The Original Mattress Factory in Florence and compared different beds. We ended up deciding to buy the most expensive king size in the place. I'm soooo happy. I have an adult bed now. That should be arriving on Thursday - it's going to seem like Thursday will never get here. THEN, when I got home, I got an email saying that my tax refund was deposited into my account. Glory be, there is a God. So, the bed is paid off, I got my tax refund, AND I paid off the last of my credit card balance. Life is good. For the time being.
