Spilled coke...

I need to go to bed early tonight. Like around 1030. I'm tired today. I've been staying up too late... But yet, I'm always tired.

I dropped my laptop a little today. Only like a foot. It seems to be okay. But the "M" key doesn't work very well, and I broke my webcam. The focus thing is broken so it blurry... I can go to Best Buy tomorrow and get a new one for like 30 bucks. Sounds good to me.

I spilled coke all over Todd and Jesse's couch and floor today. But I cleaned it up. It looked pretty good.

Last night Paul and I watched part of KING KONG. It's a good movie. Long though.

The cat is staring at me... he's waiting for his lunch... but still has about 45 minutes to go. Lol

Mental Argument...

Paul and I had what we call a "mental argument" last night. I had class last night, and that was good. On my way home Jen called to ask if she could stay at Erics because she had late arrival. I told her to call her dad. I was already upset because she asked. Of course, Paul said yes. And that just seemed to upset me even more. I don't know why it upsets me when she stays out on school nights, it just does. So when I got home Paul and I weren't talking. I was proud of myself for not argueing with him, but he could tell I was upset, and in turn I could tell he was upset. We called that a mental argument. Lol... Of course, we did start talking before he went to bed and everything was fine. Jen has another late arrival on Thursday, so on Wednesday night she'll prolly want to stay at Erics. I don't think I'll be upset because I'm prepared for it now.

Not much else is going on. I did some school work today. I haven't done any in a while because Aiden was taking short naps, but he's taking longer naps now, so I can do some of it while he's sleeping.

Today is our 5 year anniversary of being bf and gf. I got him "XFiles" season 3 and a card. He's getting me "King Kong". I can't wait to see that movie. I heard it was good, but long.

Paul also wants to work out today, but I don't. I'm kinda sad today, don't know why, just am. I know we should work out, I just don't feel like it.

I don't remember if I put in here that I picked out my reception dress. I ordered it off line. Its cute and hopefully fits. If it doesn't fit then I'll take it to Evette at Burlington and have her take it in.

It's been 4 1/2 weeks since we made love. I hope we can tonight...

One month to go...

We had a pretty laid back weekend. On Friday we stayed home and watched the rest of "Posiedon Adventure". It was good. Very interesting.

Then on Saturday we looked at houses. There were two nasty ass ones. But the one at 25 and Romeo was really nice. We have a meeting with Leon tomorrow to find out what we could qualify for. I still like those condos at 21 and 94 though.

We watched "Derailed" last night. That was a very good movie.

Then today we went to Fay and Jerry's. Shay's bday is today and Jerry's is tomorrow, so we took everyone out to dinner at Brann's. It was good.

I forgot to take my pill last night. But I took it as soon as I remembered today.

Not much else is going on.

Today is March 26... so one month until the wedding... woo hoo!!!

Been a while...

I haven't written all week. I've just been sick, busy, and so tired. I'm still sick and Paul thinks he's coming down with it now.

Anyways, we have appointments to look at a couple houses tomorrow. Paul also called Leon and is making an appointment with him to find out if we can buy a house right now or if we should wait. Paul said last week that I could get pregnant within the next year, and if we're still living here he'll change his mind.

Anyways, not much else has gone on this week. Just been working. I've been tanning, and I'm starting to get a little tan.

Nothing is going on here. Just the same ole same ole.

Weekend Update...

Friday I worked and then went tanning. On Friday night we watched "North Country" because we didn't go to Beth's cause she didn't get in till around 10. We just kinda chilled Friday night. We also made the favors. I need to get a little more wax because we have 2 1/2 candles left to make. Lol... That sucks...

On Saturday we went to the used book store... didn't get anything though. Then we went to Wal-Mart. We wanted to get a little table/shelf thing for the dining room so we can store the George Foreman, Steamer, and Crock Put, but we didn't find anything we liked, so ended up getting a new DVD player instead. Then we went to look at houses. We just drove through some neighborhoods around 24 Mile and wrote down some phone numbers to call on houses that were for sale. And then we went to Trader Joes and then to Beth's. At Beth's we watched "Walk the Line". It was good.

I woke up with a sore throat yesterday morning. Yesterday it was on my left side, and today it's on my right side. I think it may just be my sinuses draining into my throat because I'm a little stuffy but I don't have any other symptoms. I just hope I'm better for work on Tuesday. I would hate to work with a sore throat.

It's almost time for us to start getting ready for Fay and Jerry's. I hope the lunch there is easy for me to eat. When I'm eating or drinking my throat doesn't hurt though.

I also did some scrapbooking. I'm pleased with the way my scrapbook is turning out.

Anyways, I better go get ready to leave. That was my weekend. Lol... YAY!

Scrapbooking...

I've been doing alot of scrapbooking lately. I've even bought a bunch of supplies. I bought some cute papers for back drops, some nice markers to write with, some more stamps, ink, and I borrowed some of those funky scissors from Fay. But I think I may just buy my own... Not sure yet. I"ve enjoying doing the scrapbooking. It's relaxing.

I had a bad day yesterday. I was sooo tired and grumpy. I returned one of the crock pots, but forgot to use the gift card from it when I did my shopping... so we still have the gift card. Then I dropped the fabric softner outside and it spilled all over the place. We have less then half a bottle left. Then we couldn't get the damn filter off the faucet to install the new and I got VERY frustrated, started screaming and yelling, I think I threw the wrench in the sink (don't really remember) I know I stormed into the bedroom and started crying. Then when that was over I couldn't get the camera to work with new batteries, so we took it back to Circuit City and they said that we just couldn't use rechargeable batteries, so we just bought the brand that they used and it works fine. Then we went to Applebee's for dinner. I had a WW chicken thing. It was good.

Today was a long day too. Aiden was VERY crabby today. When I got off work I went to Michael's and spent like 100 bucks. I got some scrapbooking stuff, a signature mat and frame, and a frame for Jen's gorgeous painting of balley slippers.

I'm going to use the crock pot tomorrow for the first time. I'm kinda excited. I'm going to make Chicken Cacciatori (Sp?). I'm looking foward to it. I'll just throw everything in the pot in the morning and it's done by the time we're ready to eat... sounds good to me... Lol... no hassle meals... works for me!!!

I also went tanning today. I bought a month membership. It was $40. I'm going to start tanning everyday (except weekends) so I can be nice and tanning by the wedding. I want to look really tan in my dress. Lol...

I finished up Precious' collage. And hung it up. It looks good. I love it. It's so cute.

Oh, in place of the second crock pot I got a veggie steamer. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks pretty cool. I'm sure we'll use it this weekend.

We haven't worked out any this week. I've been so tired, and in bad moods, that I haven't felt like it. I really hope we can work out tomorrow since we're not going to Beth's tomorrow night because she doesn't get back from Cali until 10 PM. So I'm going to try to get Paul to help me finish up the favors (that's also something I bought from Michael's today). I had to buy some more wax and wicks. Got 'em.

Anyways, We're watching AMC and then we'll probably watch X-Files.

I started a new book a few days ago. Kay Hoopers "Hunting Fear" I'm not far in, but it seems pretty good.

Well, I'm gonna go. I'm tired. I love Paul!!

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

Work...

I worked all day today. It was a pretty good day. Aiden wasn't too crabby.

We got our new vaccum yesterday. And I was so excited. When Paul got home with it we put it together and I vaccumed. It's one of those bagless things where you can see all the crap it picks up in the bucket thingy. I couldn't believe how much crap it pulled up from our floor. It was full. I vaccumed last week... I guess our old vaccum wasn't that good. But this new one is... Lol.. I love it!!

I have to get up early tomorrow because I have to be at work at 6. I'm going to do our shopping tomorrow. Wal-Mart and Kroger. I'm also going to return the crock pot from Wal-Mart.

Not much else is going on.... I'm tired lol... it was a long day. Like 11 hours at work...

We're going to watch and Xfiles and then I'm going to bed... Lol!!!

2 Crock pots and a Vaccum...

Today was an interesting day. Fay and Jerry gave us our wedding presents. I apparently registered for 2 crock pots, and Fay got them both for us. Lol.. without realizing she did of course. So now we have to return on. We're going to get a steamer. She also got us the vaccum we wanted. However, when we got it home we saw that the vaccum was used, and then noticed that it wasn't even a Bissel. It was an Eureka in a Bissel box. Someone bought a very nice Bissel, put their Eureka in it and returned it. And the stupid people at Wal-Mart didn't check to see if their return was legit. So now we have to return the damn vaccum also. Paul's going to do that tomorrow on his way home from work tomorrow.

I emailed my granny some wedding ideas, and she took everything very literal. There was a table with votive candles and hot chili peppers around it. I wanted to do the votives, but rose petals. And she said she didn't like the chili peppers. Lol.. Stuff like that. So now I have to reply to email and explain EVERYTHING out to her. lol.. figures...

We did some of the favors on Friday. Made the purple candles. They turned out sooo nice. And smell really good.

We found a kitty boarding house for Precious while we're getting married. I was so upset about locking him in a cage for 10 days. Still am a little. But the ladies there seem really nice, and I think he'll be okay.

I get to work alot this week. I have to be at work at 915 in the morning. And then on tuesday 730 to 6 pm. And Wednesday 7 to 12. And thursday 730 to 1230.

I've been doing some scrapbooking lately. I'm enjoying it.

Anyways, We're watching Desperate Housewives and then Grey's Anatomy.

I've also been playing Sea World Tycoon most of the weekend and am enjoying!!!

Wedding stuff....

This wedding stuff is really coming along. I bought a new scrap book from JoAnns yesterday for the planning scrap book. So now I have a planning scrap book and a wedding scrap book. I also bought some more frames yesterday. I bought a big one ( i believe its 12x12) for our invitation. It looks really good in it. I have a nice wedding page background. I'm going to go to Michael's and buy a couple more of the background pages though. I like them alot and want more on hand!! I also bought some more favor holders, just to play it safe.

I'm going to CVS today and going to print out alot of the planning pictures so I can start my planning scrapbook. I can't wait.

I worked yesterday. She said that next week I can work Tuesday morning, all day Wednesday, and Thursday morning. I'm so excited. I still can't believe I got a job. It literally fell right into my lap. Lol!!!

Anyways, I'm going to go take a shower and then head to Michael's OR JoAnns, Wal-Mart, CVS, and Kroger. TTYL!!!

Invitations Mailed!!!

49 days until our wedding!! Woo Hoo!!!

And on Monday Paul mailed out our invitations!!! YAY!!! I can't wait to get our first response back. Jen said that her and Eric got theirs in the mail yesterday. So locally they're arriving quickly. I expect my Saturday to have a couple of responses back. Mostly from Fay and Beth. Lol....

We're really getting alot of stuff done. It's amazing how quickly the time flies though. I remember when we set a date on October 29,2005 is seemed like April was sooo far away. And now it's only a month away. Lol... Amazing!!!

We're almost done assembling the favors. We'll finish them up tonight. And then this weekend we'll fill them with wax. I think they'll turn out really well. I just have to figure out what I'm going to melt the wax in though. I have until Saturday to figure that out. Lol...

I've been making some more of those flower things. They're turning out sooo good. I also bought a "W" from Michaels' and painted it lavendar and then outlined it with pink glitter glue. It looks sooo good. I love it. I want to get some more letter and make the words "DREAM" and "LOVE" and maybe some others. I would like to hang the"DREAM" above the bed.

I also bought some floating candle holders yesterday. And some flowers for my bouquet. And some cute pink basket thingys to put the silverware, plates, and napkins in. They're so cute.

Anyways, enough wedding stuff.

I didn't do much Monday. Cleaned... that was about it.

I worked on Tuesday. I had to take Aiden to Jesse's work and pick her up and take them to his Dr.'s appointment. So now I have the dock for a car seat in my car. And I also have a house key to their condo. So tomorrow I can just let myself in.

We also worked out yesterday. ... blah...

I haven't been feeling too well today. I think I might have gotten too much sleep. I went to bed at like 10:20 and got out of bed around 9. I was feelin kinda funny all day. Plus, I didn't take a Benadryl last night. YAY!! I'm proud of myself. I was feeling dizzy while taking a shower. I just feel funny... I hope I'm not coming down with something.

I ordered for a few books last week. So far I've gotten "Hunting Fear" Kay Hooper. And "Countdown" by Iris Johansen. I read a few pages from "Hunting Fear" while we were working out yesterday. It seems like a really good book. But I have to finish "The Face of Deception" by Iris Johansen before I read another book. I hate reading two books at the same time.

Anyways, not much else is going on. We're going to have frozen pasta in a roasted red pepper cream sauce for dinner tonight. Hope its good.

Oh yea, I wrote up our ceremony today. I like the way it sounds. Hopefully Paul does too.

Lazy Sunday...

We haven't done much today. When we got up (around 10) I started putting the favors together. I found out that it was harder then I initially thought, so I needed Paul's help. Then we showered and went to Fay and Jerry's for lunch. We were there for a few hours, put gas in the car, and came home. We've only been home for about 20 minutes. I gave the cat his lunch, put the clothes away, and am now sitting!!!

Paul is doing our state taxes right now.

After he's done with that I want to put some more favors together.

I got new shoes on Friday. They're really cute... but have to be broken in. So my feet are a little sore. I wore them all day yesterday. Today they weren't as bad.

Anyways, not much else is going on. Just a lazy Sunday afternoon. Lol...

Saturday, March 04, 2006

Busy day

We've had a pretty busy day today. I got up about an hour before Paul did and did some tests online. I think I did about 4 or 5. I did okay on them. 88% on all of them. I should have done better, so I was kicking myself for hours over that.

Last night I worked late. It was okay. Aiden slept most of the time. He woke up once screaming and I gave him a bottle and he fell back asleep. I was really tired when I got home though.

We went to the Post Office to figure out how much it was gonna cost to mail our invitations. It's $.63. Not bad. So we got some cute stamps and just stuffed them. That was time consuming.

After the Post Office, we went to Burlington to pick up Paul's suit. It fits him perfect. When we got home he tried it on, with the shirt, tie, shoes. He looked sooo handsome.

After Burlington we went to Gibraltor to get Paul's ring resized. But they said they can't resize it because it's titanium. What a bummer. I don't know what we're gonna go. I have to get ahold of the company and either see if they can size it, exchange it for a different size, or return it all together. That totally sucked when the guy told us that. I was so upset. He said that the website should have said that, but it didn't. According to the website we can return it and possibly have it sized. There's a store in Great Lakes Crossing. Paul's going to go there sometime this week during his lunch break.

Anyways, after Burlington, we went to look at condo's. We looked at North Point again (where Jesse and Todd live) and really like those. They're inexpensive and very nice. Just no basement. But we can get that, save money for a few years and then buy a house. We also looked at the new ones in Harrison Twp. They were nice. Not sure though.

Anyways, we haven't done much since we've gotten home. Just ate, saw Paul in his suit, and did the invitations. We're not sure what we're going to do tonight. If Beth and Mike don't go to his parents house, then we might go over there. But if they do then we'll just stay at home and watch "X-Files".

Anyways, I think I'm going to go out to the car and get the JoAnn's bag. Oh yea, we went there too. I got some ribbon, a scrapbook, and beeswax. Can't wait to start making the favors!!! I think I might see how the stones that I got from Gibraltor look in my flower thingys I made.

Friday, March 03, 2006

Worn out...

I didn't do a post yesterday because I was so tired, and I still am.

I worked yesterday morning and this morning. And I have to be at work tonight at 7:30.

We picked up my dress yesterday. The alterations are all done. It's perfect.

We went to Applebee's for dinner. I had shrimp. Paul had a chicken thing. Very healthy.

I did some shopping today. I went to Wal-Mart. Got some cat food, storage boxes, etc.

Then I went to Fashion Bug, got two sweaters for $15. They're nice.

I got a new pair of shoes from Payless. I love them!!!

And I got some necklaces from DEB. They're really cute. I also tried on a dress for the reception. It was nice, but I want to get Paul's oppinion on it before I buy it. It was only $40.

I also went to Bath and Body Works. I got some antibacterial lotion for work, and two antibacterial soaps for the house.

Man I'm tired. I've been doing some school work while at work. Lol... that sounded weird. I only have one test left and then the final. Woo hoo!!! I can't wait to be done with American History. But I think literature is next. Ugh!!!

I've been reading the PH Balance book alot. It's very interesting and I'm enjoying reading it.

Anyways, I'm gonna chill a little before I have to go to work. Less then 2 hours.

Wednesday, March 01, 2006

Another day...



These are the rose petal flowers that I made last week. I think they turned out nice!!!

Today was just another day. Not much happened. I woke up around 9:30. Did some laundry, school work, dishes, downloaded some songs, etc. When Paul got home we worked out. I'm back down to 186. Lost 2 pounds. Yay!!! We didn't do much. Watched an "X-Files".

I just ordered for 4 books from amazon.com I ordered Kay Hoopers "Hunting Fear" and "Chill of Fear". And Iris Johansen's "Countdown" and "On the Run". Can't wait to get them.

I read some more of my PH Balance book. It's very interesting.

Paul's watching AMC right now. LOST is on tonight... and is new... YAY!!! Can't wait for LOST.

Well, Like I said, not much happened today.

I go to work tomorrow. I'm going to take my school work and PH Balance. Get some more school work done.

Oh yea. I can't believe I forgot. Our rings came today. They are PERFECT!! Well, not in size, but they look perfect. I love the way mine looks. And Paul's is nice too. He likes it, so that's all that matters. We'll go to Gibralter this weekend and get them sized. We also have to get them engraved.

I took some pictures of our wedding stuff today. They turned out good.

New Laptop

Okay, I had this nice post all typed up last night and I got kicked offline before I could publish it. So I saved it in WORD and here it is.

I had this really nice, long post all typed up and then got kicked offline, so I lost it.

So here's the short version:

I got my laptop today. I love it. I've been downloading stuff like crazy. Music, AIM, Yahoo msngr, etc. It's sooo fast. Paul has to get me set up with out wireless connection though.

Today was my first day of work. I loved it. Aiden is so calm, and happy. He's also so young that he just plays in his bouncer and sleeps alot, so on Thursday I'm going to take my school work and my laptop with me and do some work.

I went to JoAnn's after work. Got some fabric for table runners, favor holders, ribbon, etc.

I had a migrain earlier, but it's gone now.

I got our PH Balance book today and I'm loving reading it. I can't wait to start the program.

My mom said our napkins arrived today.
