Why is it that all of the cute new CHA scrap stuff comes out when I am totally BROKE? ugh. So much cute new stuff, I am going to have to sell lemonade outside on the weekends or something to be able to pay for it. Love me some scrap goodies.

So yesterday, Michaels jeep died on us. The mechanic said that his engine is shot and a new one is $4,000...he moved ino to SAVE money, not spend it!!! So frustrating, but thankfully we are living with my parents so he isnt having to pay rent like before. For now he has my car and I am car-less, which sucks, but we will make do.

Cooked with Michelle today, made the yummiest chicken and dumplings ever. so good.

Bridal shower tomorrow, looking forward to it (only know the bride and no one else so its a little akward, but should be fun fun!). Her wedding should be super fun, its in September in San Diego, another reason for me and Michael to have a weekend getaway there, cant wait. Here is a picture in La Jolla from last time we went, it was so much fun.

Am trying to figure out how to upload pictures from our digital, Michael still hasnt shown me so I have to wait for him to be able to put anything up, ugh. So until then, my blog is pretty boring.

Having a girls night out tonight with my girlfriends Tawny and Brittany and Tawns new baby, Dylan. Cant wait!! The Crazy Chicken (love their avocado salsa) and a chick flick, oh so much fun.

I'm out.

Busy weekend

My weekend was pretty busy, even though I didnt actually 'work.' Friday night I spent the night with my girlfriend Tawny who just had a baby, it was a fun girl night, movies and dinner. Saturday I helped my friend Onica with a wedding, and holy crap was it HOT!!! Saturday night I went with Michelle to dinner and a movie, we saw The Devil Wears Prada and it was so super cute! Sunday I got up at 5 am to watch my Godsons and it was just a crazy day. I'm glad the weekend is over and I am off work today, yippee!!

I have 3 weeks from today until I start school, I am so enjoying the last of the summer...as much as I want school to start so it can be over already, I am really loving having time off.

Nothing super exciting to report today, I am taking it easy, my back has been KILLING me all of yesterday and today it feels worse. I am going to do a long stretch sesh, hopefully that helps!

Thats all for now :o)

Oh yea, the adorable baby is my best friend Angies daughter, Asheley. Isnt she just the sweetest?

Just got in from the gym with Michelle and really need to kick my working out into high gear for sure!! Now that Michael is all moved in and the stress is gone from having the drama with the room mate, hopefully we can get into a good routine of eating healthy and working out together. we'll see how that goes.

Nothing exciting to report, worried right now about my credit card bill that I dont have the money to pay for (always a stressful thing). I need to pick up some shifts at work before school starts back so I can pay it off.

I hear my pillow calling my name, off to bed! :o)

Finally!!

Finally Michael is moving in!!!!!!!!! Its a LLLOOONNNGGG story as to why its taken this long and why I am so relieved, but I just have to let it go and know that its over, and hes finally moving in! I am so happy and excited, I cant wait. Its gonna be a crazy weekend considering we are working opposite schedules, but we will figure it out.

Cleaned my scrap space tonight, so depressing!! I always want to hold on to everything, thinking im going to use it "some day" but I just cant use an entire room for scrap stuff, so I condensed it down and got rid of TONS. The box is so heavy I dont even know how Im going to carry it out of my room, but we'll figure it out. Hopefully some of the Foxies will take some of it, and whatever is left maybe Yez can take to the Childrens Hospital.

On a side note...I really miss my sister. Its been really hard to be excited about Michael moving in, when I know that the reason there is room for him is because my sister isnt here anymore. I just feel like she has replaced me with our cousin, and I wish things could go back to the way they used to be. Hopefully when she finishes cosmotology school we will be able to spend more time together, its like I feel like so badly I want a close relationship with her, but its just "not there" if that makes any sense.

Gotta get to bed, working tomorrow at 6 am, yuck!

Dylan is here!!

My close friend from high school Tawny finally had her baby. He was born July 12th, at 3:30 am, 8 pounds 8 ounces and 21 inches long. Poor girl was in labor 16 hours, THEN they did a c-section. Dylan is happy and health, and SOOO cute!!! He has a ton of hair. Everyone is so excited that he is finally here. I will post some pictures of him.

Yesterday I watched my best friend Angies daughter, Asheley, took her to have pictures taken because she hasnt had any since she was a month old, shes 9 months now, and a package at Walmart cost me $50!! omg I was so mad! I looked on their website and they have packages for $6.88! Why did I pay $50?? I called back and raised hell with the little 16 year old idiot girl that took the pictures, and she told me to come back and she would fix it. Thank God, I am so on a budget right now and did not expect to pay that much at Walmart.

Its getting closer to Michael moving in, this Sunday. I am super excited, but a little nervous at the same time, I have never "lived" with anyone before. I cant wait to spend every day with him though.

Nothing else exciting going on, boring ole' me

Here is the picture

I almost forgot!

Happy Tuesday

Here I am again, abandoning my blog for months. I always say I am going to start blogging again, and just never get around to it. Lately I must admit that it is my new obsession with a wedding website called The Knot. It is seriously amazing the things you can find on there, I just love it, and the message boards are great. I know that next month when school starts back up again, my time to myself will be limited with studying and school stuff, so I am enjoying it now. I am off work this whole week, wooooo!! All I have planned is getting my house ready for Michael to move in, its already THIS Sunday!!! Yikes. I am super excited about it, but at the same time it will be a huge adjustment. I have never lived with anyone before, I mean yea I stay at Michaels all the time, but its not the same as living with him. I know this is the best thing for both of us though, so I am really happy that my parents have given us the opportunity to do it. We will be able to save money so that we can buy a house when we get married. (that sounds so weird, get married).

Wedding ramblings: I have decided on my wedding colors, they will be orange and fucshia. Our wedding date is May 17, 2008. We were going to pick May 25th, because its on a Sunday and everything is cheaper on Sundays, but thats memorial day weekend, and I dont want our guests to have to travel from out of town on a holiday weekend. So May 17th it is. I have the place picked out too, I pretty much have it all done "in my head" so to speak, and we will finalize stuff next summer. The place is truly AMAZING. I love it. It is an outdoor ranch/garden, its HUGE, they have this gorgeous old red barn thats great for photos, and the lawn where the reception will be has 4 huge trees around it, that are decorated with white lights, and the best part is that there is an old Victorian style home that will just make for amazing photos. I will put a picture up. We can also use the home for a cocktail hour, or cake cutting, or whatever we wanted, plus there is a really cute decorated bride and groom room for us to get ready in. I cant wait! I know a girl (from the knot) who is getting married there this August, so I cant wait to see how her wedding turns out! She is super sweet and helpful too.

School ramblings: Gosh, school...I have forgotten what its like to STUDY. I told myself that all summer I was going to review the last semester, memorize all my meds, pathophys, etc...and I havent done JACK! After Michael moves in I will, its just been crazy lately though. I also need to buy my book, and go to the library to copy my instructors lecture notes for next semester. I am SO nervous about next semester. I guess this instructor is super mean, and really hard to get along with, yikes!

So thats my update. Nothing really exciting to report. I will try to update this thing at least twice a week. Try is the key word.
