kid has super funny freakout/tantrum when his mom cancels his WoW subscription

since my birthday I got sick.
took a sick day from work. it was awesome. i slept a lot that day.

uhm, I bought this....
I love it. and this game....

and it's so fun. i love it so much. i already have a list of games i want. i might go buy one tonight. haha.

We had Theresa's other shower and her bachelorette party. she got really drunk.

My mom found an Aunt we never knew about. Turns out my Nana put her up for adoption after having my Aunt Lisa and didn't tell anyone about her. Now there's craziness in the family dynamics and it's all weird and "blood" matters now and it never did before and it's just crazy. She seems super nice and funny. and looks like my dad and aunt.

Mother's Day I had to work and was really upset that I couldn't be with my family or with EJ's.
I came home from work and looked at the pictures of everyone and got pretty upset/sad about it.

Monday EJ tells me to check my e-mail and turns out he surprised me with a plane ticket to visit my family 4th of july weekend!!!!!! he is the most amazing boyfriend ever. i love him to death. i wish he could come with me but i understand. i'm so excited. so i'll be home july 2-6th.

uhm.....my step mom is giving me her old engagement ring and wedding band from her last marriage. she doesn't need it and said i could have it. awesome. it looks like a nice size stone. i plan on getting it reset into settings i will like. free diamonds. who passes that up?

uhm...we are rearranging our apartment on saturday and then i want to go to the conservatory and then to his grandma's and possibly make this wallet from my craft book ej gave me for valentine's day!

that's all for now.

I'm sleepy. But had a decent weekend.

Friday night we went to Grandma and Grandpa's and had dinner then went and saw Benjamin Button with her. Went home and went to bed.

Saturday we went to EJ's mom's house and I did laundry, made amish friendship cinnamon bread and then we stopped and got some food and I took him over to Kris and Taylor's and went to work.

I came home and Nick and Fawn came over to play MarioKart for a little while.

Sunday I slept in til 11:30 and woke up, watched the golden compass. Then had to go inquire about a tire for my car then headed to Spring Grove to take some pictures. It had snowed and was very pretty.

I proceeded to lock myself out of my car there and everyone was working except for our downstairs neighbor Zach. He came and picked me up, took me home to get my spare and then back to get my car. I was so thankful.

Then I went home, ate, left to pick up EJ. We went to get groceries. Went home and watched tv then headed to bed.


My bread turned out awesome and very yummy.


A picture from my adventure at Spring Grove yesterday

From January 2009

Last week I got another flat tire. lol oh well. I also got myself a new phone friday. I got the LG Voyager, so did EJ. I love it. It's fabulous.

I need to get a tire this weekend if this one is really messed up. It is an older one so I am assuming I just need to buy a new one. Once I get paid this week I should have the checking account advance back on my bank account and I can borrow the money from there until the next time I get paid for the tire.

I have to get used to getting paid every other week now.
I still get paid every week from Kroger though.

Let's see. Today I need to call one more bakery for Theresa's cake and I want to go over the checklist and see if there's anything else I need to do, or have them do.

I'm also going to check the calendar and try and set a date for her bridal shower and maybe give Pam a call and see if that date works for her, since we're going to have it at her house.

I'm going to go home tonight and take the bakery information over to Theresa and then watch TV and finish knitting EJ's cell phone cozy he wants. I made one for myself already. Maybe I'll try to post from my phone, but if I have to get online I'm not doing it. haha.


Oh, Wednesday my boss got fired/laid off. It sucks. Lauren and I are so busy now. We can't really even take lunches.

Anyways. Happy Innaguration Day!

:)


Panera just brought in some cookies for me! haha. it pays to do the food ordering for all the meeting rooms apparently.

more animals

Today is the holiday social/holiday get together at work today. Lots of food and people.
The girl who does my job at a new location here across town is coming today to have me help her out and give her some pointers and answer some questions. They just opened and only have one client, and apparently they really like me here and trust my judgement. It would be awesome if the girl decided not to come back. I like working here.

Anyways, I've had some horrible headaches all week. I'm either not drinking enough water so I've got some now. I'm grinding my teeth in my sleep again so tonight I'll wear my mouthguard and see if I notice any difference. Or, I don't know. haha.

Hm...not much else to report.

I put my tree up, I know I need to post some pictures soon.

Tomorrow we're going to see that Keanu Reeves movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still. Saturday I plan on sleeping in, borrowing Guitar Hero from Danny, knitting and then at night hang out with Liz while Nick and EJ go to a drum and bass thing down the street from Liz's apartment. It'll be nice because that way I don't have to drop them off, go home, come back and pick them up and go home again. She lives right down the street so no wasting gas money! hooray!

That's all for now.

i finished the twilight series.

i loved it. i love reading.

bad headache all day. can't wait to go home. i hope we make something yummy for dinner except i can't remember what we have at home to eat lol. oh well. i like sitting in my living room with the tree and lights up. i feel so cozy.

I put up my christmas lights in the living room the other day and my snowglobe and a few other things including the bell wreath for my door.
I still have to put up my tree but I don't know if I want to.

Though I do have some awesome ornaments I made last year. I need to make some for sheryl soon. Maybe I can do that this weekend.

It's Thursday! hooray!
Jess' birthday is saturday. Fawn and I are trying to coordinate a day this weekend to get together with her. I have to call both of them later today.

Kroger called me yesterday, but it's not one close to my house. I'm going to call them today and go for an interview and tell them for now I would only like to work weekends but come January I may be able to work full time days.
We'll see how that goes later.

I'm almost done with the third Twilight book, Eclipse. If I didn't have to work I'd have the fourth one finished by now! haha.

We bought a bunch of clothes for this little boy EJ grabbed from the tree at work. As well as one of those gyms that they lay on their back and play with. I want to get him a hat and mittens and then I think we'll be done.

We watched step brothers last night, that movie is so funny.

Uhm, that's all for now I suppose.

:)

Ughhhh....I just got my period at work. Thankfully my boss had some stuff since I had nothing. And thankfully I kept a bottle of pamprin in my purse. My cramps were pretty bad but have just started to subside thanks to the pamprin.

I hope I feel ok tomorrow, I don't want to have a crappy Thanksgiving!

I guess my Dad is having a ton of people over tomorrow and my Mom is going to Sheryl and Brandon's for Thanksgiving. Sheryl rules for doing that. I appreciate her making sure Mom and Uncle Denny will have a nice Thanksgiving.

We're going to his grandparents as usual. We'll eat around 3 or so and then EJ and I will head home. I'll probably watch some TV and knit and he'll probably play the video game he rented. His grandparents house is pretty small so we don't like to stay all that long.
It's nice, his family is great, especially his grandparents and I'm treated as part of the family so I feel welcomed and loved there.
I do miss our super big get togethers back home but I'm sure it's not the same since Mom and Dad split up.

But I'll be able to call everyone from there.

Fawn came over last night and sat and watched TV with me for a little bit while EJ and Nick hung out. It was so good to see and talk to a friend haha. Not having a phone has made me appreciate how much I love my friends and family.

We rented that movie Wall E and plan on watching it this weekend. I might go watch it at Javis and Theresa's on Friday with them and Talon. I haven't seen her in about a month so I'm excited for that. If that doesn't pan out though I'll probably hang out with Fawn.

We rented Kung Fu Panda last week and watched it Monday before it was due back Tuesday and we both really liked it. I'd like to buy it eventually.

I hope you guys have a good thanksgiving!
Love you!


OH! I'm going to try and figure out how to post a video on Friday for you to watch haha and I'll post some pictures too!

and though I can't go home like I wish I could there are still plenty of other things to be grateful and thankful for.

• My boyfriend
• My family (including EJ's family) My mom and sister are great. They know what's important and want me to be happy. I love them a lot. :)
• My friends are amazing people. Theresa, Fawn and Jessica are always doing their best to make sure I'm ok and still smiling. They're very important people to me.
• My health, and EJ's health and everyone around us
• A job, even if it is temporary
• A roof over my head
• My will to keep going
• EJ's job and him possibly moving up!

and more but those are the most important to me right now.

Love you guys.
