Okay here is the update on the car situation.  My car is back home tonight...but only after I forked over $415 to get it fixed.  It is quite a funny little story...here it goes!

The day started out well, I was pumped up to get going.  So after I posted my last entry I got ready to go.  I called the place when they first opened and they told me to ( Read more... )

I am trying to look at the brightside of things, yesterday when we were doing our running around the car started making this awful sound...so we got to the side road we take to get into the apartments and Vera got out and could see things flying out under the car.  So when we lifted the hood my belt is in shreds.  I just got the belt replaced at ( Read more... )

I am so glad that I decided that politics were not for me three years ago.  These people just like power plays...and I hate that.  I am however greatful that the Michigan congress finally put together the budget...which means no shutdown.  They did raise income taxes from 3.9% to 4.35%.  And they are looking at cutting spending by 435 million.

So ( Read more... )

What do you do when the state you live in is 1.75 BILLION dollars in debt and can not find a way to balance the fiscal budget for 2007/2008?  The state congress has until Sunday night to try to find a solution to the budget.  If they can not, than 35,000 state employees will be laid off and the state will shut down.  Everything from the lottery to ( Read more... )

We just got back today from our trip to Mexico.  It was SOOO much fun!  I did get a little bit of sun, but it has mostly turned into a tan now.  I took a big step in over coming my fear of the ocean, by actually swimming in it.  It wasn't that bad, though I did get freaked out when the sun started going down.  We all know that sharks like the merky ( Read more... )

Tomorrow morning Vera, Diana, Jackie, and myself will be on a flight to Mexico for five days in the sun.  I can't wait to go!  Even though we just got back from Detroit almost two weeks ago I already needed a break from that place I call work.  Yesh...two days before our vacation I was ready to walk out.  All due to a miscommunication *imagine that ( Read more... )

So I took this from my lovely friend Jenny.   This was so much fun ( Read more... )

I'm too tired to post anything...plus I don't know what I would even talk about.  So...I'll post something tomorrow.

Okay so I have been away from a computer for so long, I have to look at everything.  Things are going pretty well. I'm still at US Airways, though we (Vera and I) are looking at getting a job with the Las Vegas Metro Police as disbatchers.  The job is stressful, but it pays well. Plus who can say that our current job isn't stressful?  Anyway, so ( Read more... )

Just a quick entry since I am at Bill's house and I need to get home.  I have been without a computer for a few weeks now since my mom and aunt have moved back to Detroit.  I guess it has been ok, but I am a bit lonely without them here. I will be home on Sunday, for a few days.  I will update more when I get to my dads house.
