Weekend Gone Awry

My friends and I headed up to Orlando last Friday for what was suppose to be a relaxing 3 day weekend, but like most of my adventures, things did not go quite as planned.

While my friends frolicked around a water park I spent Saturday in bed, a hotel bed. . . At least we stayed somewhere nice, I'm not sure if I could have spent an entire Saturday laying in bed at some discount motel.

I did feel well enough to hit up Downtown Disney on Saturday night. The food at the House of Blues was yummy, and of course I had to do some shopping in the housewares section of World of Disney (more on that later).

This past weekend also marked Laurendy Home's first blog-o-versary!! A year ago I put an offer on a 4/5 bedroom, 1 bath major-fixer-upper and started this here blog while I waited for a response. . . I didn't get that house, and while at the time I was upset, I now know I am much better off with the house I did end up with.

Lessons Learned in the Last Year:
  • bigger isn't always better
  • banks suck
  • a good realtor is an amazing thing
  • a homeowner's work is never done
and
  • going away this 13 people is just too much
