Moving Hotels......Again 2008-03-27 18:30:05 I am so excited. But first for start we move again to town, this time the deal I got from The Plaza Hotel, this is downtown Las Vegas.Picture: We stay in the left tower from the photo. Is not in front of the action but at least I didn't got the wall like in the Tropicana, actually it was an OK room and the window was facing South so you can see the strip from the not so far, This was in the 6th floor. While we waiting to check in got a call from Mike (owner of the house), he say, that talk with his wife and they decided rent the house to us. We are so thrill!, since the Hotel say that I have to wait until 3 PM to check in cause I did the reservation in the same day and they didn't show up in screen, we went to my NEW Landlord home to sign papers.Ufff!!!!!! Now we can take care of utilities Read more:Moving

Lost Hope! 2008-03-27 18:17:56 Its been a week or so, and we kinda losing all hope, our last chance for a house today is 2 I found at the Newspaper, I kinda tough we are spending another week with out my babies.First house is in Mountain Edge area, new house, I guess is OK, but is not what we would like if we would stay in that area, they are better houses compare to that one.Second house is in Green Valley, 3 b/2.5 b, loft, Mike the owner looks like a great guy, we are not totally in love with the house, maybe is because has a lot of detail to finish getting ready, that should be a plus, I mean, new carpet, totally brand new paint and blinds, etc... we decide to fill the application, he could not give us an answer until tomorrow.We are crossing our fingers at this point, we are tired, frustrated and we lost all hope.
Comedy Stop at the Trop 2008-03-27 16:24:34 We have been so stress about the whole move that my hubby and I haven't had a chance to relax, I have to admit that sleeping early is been a plus, but sometimes with the stress or you are completely wear out or the opposite you cant sleep at all. Tonight we went to the Comedy
Stop which is one hall away from the Hotel (Tropicana).I recommend to get the coupon from those little magazines that you can find in the Hotel rooms, gas station etc..The have 2 shows: 8pm (non smoking) and 10:30pm nightly. Tickets are just $19.95 including tax, tip and one cocktail. With the coupon I mention before you save like 5 dlls.You get 3 Stand-Up Comedians. You have to go to their website -vegas-boxoffice.cfm and see who is going to be in that particular week. This night the funnier was the second one (tota
No house yet! 2008-03-27 11:55:34 Is Friday, so we are going back to a Primm Valley Hotel for the Weekend, again prices in the weekends are insane. No home yet,we starting to get frustrated, The more it takes us to find a house, the more it takes us get my kids back from my parents house.I already start crying a couple a times at night because if that. We didn't do anything at all except going to a Comedy show last night right here in the Hotel.
On the other side of the Border 2008-03-27 11:49:45 My kids are having some bouncing time. Since my youngest sister birthday is tomorrow, I known person in the family let her use the big commercial bouncer they have for events, so there was some hours of fun. My sister, 2 of her friends and the Fathead and the Twig.The Boy also was outside watching them and playing with my parents dogs.

At the Tropicana 2008-03-27 11:16:29 Today we are moving to the strip, more especific to the Tropicana, when I look at Travelworm they had a great deal on rooms. But. #1 Read carefull detail about room, seems to be...and with my ignorace about this that you have to pay a freaking fee for use of the facility, is freaking cold I am not going to use the pool, what are they talking about, obvously I found out this until I got there, #2 Understand this, if you looking for deals, beware that what you get is maybe not the best thing,. Dont get me wrong I bet they have great rooms.....somewhere, but the one I got was probably use by Frank Sinatra, those rooms are stuck in a time machine, blast from the past. In other news GT (husband) has meet with bosses and that is settle, on the other hand no luck with the house issue.Picture: Thi

Still updating! 2008-04-05 01:06:12 Sorry if I havent been posting, still trying to update for the time I was off cross country, the Fathead and the Boy been sick for a week. To be honest I dont think the school thing is working for the Fathead, she is been sick since she start going to school. I think we are going to send her this next week (cause is already pay for it) and after that try to sign her in something that doesnt require her to wake up almost at the same time as my husband. Anyways I am some posts away to be able to start posting as normal as I use to do it.
Outing to The Comedy Stop...Again! 2008-04-08 02:45:48 Since we didn't have much to do today because all arraignments had been done and we just waiting to be Saturday to drive to Calexico, CA to pick up the kids, my hubby decided to treat me with taking me back to the The Comedy
Stop at the Tropicana Casino. We had a lot of fun last week, so we decided to go back.Since he decide this at last minute we decide to get a cab, If you want to save money take the bus or trolley, is cheaper, but it will take you more time, that because stops in a lot of casinos, that means a lot of tourist getting off and in the bus.Now ..... I have 3 grades/scores for comedy. Level 1: the one that makes me just smile for a sec, cause I think is cute what he is saying but is not that good comedian. Level 2: The one that can make me laugh, that can be considered a dece Read more:Again

Cute movie, that is my way to say is was not bad.It was nice do something together, even do my feet were killing me, I decide to wear High heels for my husband, which I haven't use in years since I been pregnant and all that. This is going to hurt for days. We feel like to old people.The babysitter was great, surprisingly I found her in Craiglist, my kids love her, she was Read more:Diner
