Can someone grant me an extra hour or two in the day, please?

So it seems that I have yet to post an update from our awaiting the news of our new duty station. Well, if you haven't found out, hello Philadelphia!  What a dream come true.... in most areas. HA. Quick update from the last few months: April- We began the process known as house hunting. We spent a weekend in Philly looking for a place to buy. We decided home ownership was a great option since we have a dog (security deposits and pet fees were astronomically high) and since we could live here for up to 5 years. Anyways, we found a house we fell in love with in South Philly. I wasn't expecting it, I definitely was more "let's find a place with a big yard and a driveway". But this MADE the most sense (I will get to that later, maybe). There is great park about a half block down that Connor plays in and Rango walks in. We are close to so many fantastic destinations NY, Lancaster, MD, NJ, ect. Anyways, we worked throughout April on coming to a settlement agreemen...
