Cars….who needs em! Well, we do but they don’t like us lately. First the alternator decides to quit on us in the truck. This was an easy fix if you have the tools, which we didn’t. We ended up borrowing the tools from my dad and Kevin did manage to get it fixed. Another challenge to this however was the fact that the way that Kevin’s schedule ( Read more... )

This next weekend is going to be a nice long weekend! I am normally off on Fridays and Sundays but thanks to Christmas I get all three days off! I had the option to work on Friday to get 40 hours in but I have worked a few 6 day work weeks and think I have earned this 3 day weekend! Not sure if Kevin is working this Friday, but I am just excited ( Read more... )

I think I have the best husband in the world! I know I complain about him some, but I know that it is just a part of life. We all have our quirks about us that are going to drive the other nuts, but we can see past those. With our schedules being off (he is gone from abou 6-530, and I am gone from about 11-930) he has taken on a lot of the ( Read more... )

Sorry a musical moment there. Yep, it is December 7th, a date which will live in infamy. Just thought I would put that little note in here, with a fitting title. I also can't resist adding a quote from animal house:

Bluto: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell ( Read more... )

I am getting excited about the holiday season. Kevin and I are going to go get our tree soon and then comes the time to decorate it! My friend does a lot of photography and though she did not answer my email about price I am hoping she will take some pictures for Kevin and I  and give me a friend discount or do it for free. I am hoping that we can ( Read more... )

I think Kevin is getting sick, hopefully nothing too serious, but he went to bed early this evening. Work is going well, I am getting nervous because I am pretty sure i have to actually get on the phones tomorrow. I helped out my trainer today by letting him schedule me to donate blood this Monday so he got one more appointment in his que for the ( Read more... )

Had my first day of work yesterday and I got my first work badge! It sounds so strange to be excited about something like that but it is a real key-pass work badge with my picture and name on it. I feel like I finally have a real job ( Read more... )

Guess it is only going to be one job yet again. I found out today in a round about way that they weren't going to be able to work something out where I can stay on at the daycare. This only saddens me because both jobs would have meant great money, but that is where the sadness ends. Not being at the daycare means no more childish drama, no more ( Read more... )

What a day ( Read more... )

It has been a long time since I have really been able to sit down and read a book, and right now I am actually reading a book that is giving me some great incentive. I am reading American Soldier by General Tommy Franks, which is his autobiography. What I am really loving about it is his attitude about being a soldier. He talks about retreat and ( Read more... )
