Bingeing on TV

Season 2 of House of Cards arrived on Netflix on Friday.  I am happy and sad to announce that I have managed to watch the entire season in a mere 3 days.  I am eager for Season 3 to come out, but who has any idea how long that will be?

There is so much good TV but you have to subscribe to various networks or services in order to get it all.  That is the one thing that I dislike. 

Last nights episode of Looking was HOT.  They promised it would be and they did not disappoint.  I’ve fallen for this show, after last night.  I just wish they would air episodes that would be an hour in length instead of 30 minutes.  That goes by way too fast. 

Happy President’s day!  I am enjoying a holiday from work and wishing that there were more to come, like this week.  An extra day at home is nice.  While I haven’t accomplished everything that I wanted to I did take time to cater to myself and that was enjoyable.

I met up with some friends on Saturday at Cracker Barrel.  It’s been so long since I had such a good meal and that was really fabulous.  I went out to Breakfast yesterday and thought I would run into a hot waiter, but he wasn’t working.  I treated myself to supper at Bob Evans and had an amazing Chicken Salad.  That is it for the eating out adventures.  The cost adds up pretty quickly.

Today I went to the grocery store and ran into a cashier that we used to chat up.  I must have spent 45 minutes on my feet talking to her.  My back was killing me and I had to sit down.  Never so thankful to get in the truck.  It was good talking with her and letting her know where things are at. 

Now I have the task of finishing up the laundry, cleaning the house and prepping the trash.  Plus I have to eat and care for the children.  I have spent my fair amount sleeping, napping and resting.  It’s time to get some work done.  After all it’s not going to get done without me. 

Sadly tomorrow will be back to work but only for 4 days and then we get the weekend back, which will be nice.  I have plenty of vacation time left to use between now and May.  I’m saving it for as long as I can.  I will take some time in April for sure .  Possibly a small break in March.  Time will tell.  My body tells me I am getting sick so I may be breaking sooner than March.  I am trying to fight it off as best as I can but I am unsure if I am winning or not. 

I did my on-line research with regards to the Mortgage and filed formal complaints with several regulatory agencies.  I also asked my attorney about bringing suit against the mortgage company for the violations they have committed.  Since these are Federal Law violations I believe they have to be filed in Federal Court and can’t be taken care of from a Small Claims Court basis.  As I expected it sounds like she is going to wimp out on me.  However, the letter really speaks for its’ self in bringing to light what they have done to me and I am sure it’s going to stir up a storm, so it’s a matter of waiting to see what happens.  I am sure I will have angered the Mortgage company but my goal here isn’t to make friends it’s to save my home and get a more affordable house payment.  It may prompt them to start foreclosure proceedings.  I mean I am poking the bear so to speak, I have to expect that the bear is going to fight back or even worse kill me.  However, it’s all a worth while risk in the end.  The words give up are to easy to succumb to and I feel fighting is the better avenue.  It’s more taxing and wears you out quicker but it feels good to know that even if I do lose I it is not because I rolled over and gave up. 

With that in mind, back to house work.  Talk with you peeps later.
