Drury Inn & SWEETS

Tomorrow we're gong to be "kicked out" of the house for most of the day. We're having work (lots of it!) done on the house and tomorrow all of our duct work is being replaced. They tell us it's a messy, messy job. Lots of dust everywhere. They have work to do in every room of the house. They're starting between 9-10 a.m. and we're told that they'll be out of our home by 7:00 p.m. We're thinkin' that since the other deadlines that they've given us haven't come to pass, 7:00 p.m. isn't that reliable. Not to mention that everthing in our rooms are pushed to one side and covered in plastic, including our beds(well, they will be after we get up tomorrow morning)! Since we have children to feed, bathe and do homework with, plus clean up the plastic and dust in the bedrooms so they can get to sleep at a decent hour - we're not banking on it all happening smoothly. Hence, the Drury Inn and Suites. The kids are stoked. What child wouldn't be when they're told there's "Free Fountain Soda/Fresh Popcorn in the Lobby Daily 3 - 10 p.m!" What parent wouldn't be when there's the free hot breakfast - "Hot means sausage and eggs, not bread and a toaster. You'll enjoy scrambled eggs, sausage, Belgian waffles, biscuits and gravy. And don't forget the fresh fruit, bagels, pastries, juices, hot and cold cereals, toast, milk, coffee, tea and more." Oh yeah. Right across the street from the Dollar theater, a wal-mart and right next to a McDonalds. The kids simply can't wait. They've been asking every day when we get to go, and now Kassi's in 7th heaven that she gets to wake up in a hotel room on her birthday. Funny girl! If any of you need us you can reach us on our cell phones.
We'll let you know more about the house when the dust settles...literally!
