New Year's Eve!

Today is the last day in 2008!
It seems like this year flew by!
I hope we're getting off early today. But at least we have a 4 day weekend!
It probably won't be until 3 pm, because that's when the Shop leaves.
Travis woke up throwing up this morning. He didn't feel good yesterday. I think he might have brought some of this on himself. Bad to say, but I do. He only ate 2 chicken patty sandwiches and some fries after 4 or so. Then last night, he had a couple of drinks. Drinking liquor on an almost empty stomach, never did anyone any good. But he may also have the stomach virus that's going around. I've only had a cold, but I feel fine. So who knows...
I have a roast with potatoes and carrots cooking in my new crock pot for dinner tonight. Then I think we're just going to hang out at home tonight. Last New Years, we were camping with a bunch of people, so it'll be nice to be home, and away from all the crazy people that will be drinking and partying.
We don't have much else planned. Travis said something about maybe going shopping some more. And Saturday night, we're all supposed to go play pool. Megan and Chris are moving to Montana in about 2 weeks, and Bobby's birthday is Sunday. But it'll be a nice long weekend.
It sucks, because who knows when the next time we'll get out of work and paid for it.
Well, hope everyone has a SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Work

One more day of work left this week!
Hopefully, it's only part of day!
I didn't work out last night. I didn't feel all that well when I got home.
I start a new pack this week...
But Travis worked out. He needs to...
But I figure next week, when my daily schedule goes back to normal, (not having a 4 day weekend), I'll start working out. Plus it's not the New Year yet. I'm going to stay with as best as I can. I always say that, but I think that if I can make it part of my daily routine, then it probably wont be as big a deal as it is now. I'm also going to start eating more salads again. I've been pretty good with the food, but it's the working out that gets me.
I found some help online about things you can do when you sit at work all day.
I think I'll start incorporating those in today.
I did get to re-organize my linen closet last night. It looks so much better, and makes me feel good to know that I have an organized closet.
Now if it could only be tomorrow!
Hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Back to Work...

We had a wonderful Christmas!
It was so nice to be home and not worry about anything all weekend!
I worked a half of day on Christmas Eve, then we had our family party. Everyone loved my Spice Cake, and it was good to see everyone together. My mom gave Travis and I $150 for Christmas. She's not been feeling well lately, and it was easier for her than to go shopping.
Christmas morning, we woke up and opened the presents from his parents. They gave us each $100. And some clothes. Then we had breakfast, and went on a ride. The weather was perfect, and not a lot of people out. I didn't stall once! Then we went home and made a Gingerbread House. Then we had our ham for dinner. Then we went and looked at Christmas lights. They didn't have anything good on TV for Christmas.
Then Friday, we took care of Travis' tag for the van. Then went out to lunch. Then went shopping at Beals Outlet. I got a few new shirts, odd ball stuff, and Christmas that was on sale. Then we put Christmas away. It was easier to do it then, with all the new stuff, then putting it all a way twice.
Saturday, Travis picked up the 2 end tables from Jessie (they were my mom's) and I cleaned them. Then we went grocery shopping and ordered pizza for dinner. Adam came over and hung out for a little.
Sunday, more shopping, and football!
The Eagles killed Dallas for the playoff spot.
Travis was so happy they won!
Now, we're back to work. Boo....
I know that we'll have Thursday and Friday off together, but I'm not sure yet about Wednesday. Maybe a half day, but who knows...
I'm going to have to start working out again. I'm starting to notice the difference.
I know for sure that next week, I'm going to kick butt at working out, but this week, my days are backward again. Damn Holidays...
Hope everyone has a good Monday!

2 days till Christmas!

It's hard to believe that it's already Christmas.
This will be our 4th Christmas together!
It just seems like it was Thanksgiving.
Then it'll be 2009. That means it's been 6 years since we graduated.
And Jessie and I will be 25.
I never pictured me saying that I'm that old, or where I would be in life.
I'm happy with where I am. I wish I had stayed in College though.
But I can think back to a certain day and wonder if I had chosen differently, would I be where I am now?
Maybe everything that happened was for a reason. I figure it as that I had to go through with what I did, and Travis had to do the same. I knew the first time we met, there was a connection. But I never would have believed that I would be married to Travis. At that time, I could only hope for it.
It's amazing the ups and downs that life takes you on.
I think Jessie and Bobby will be happy once they get everything organized.
This may be a new chapter in their lives, and hopefully it only gets better for them!
Is it 5 yet?

Starting to feel like Christmas!

It's cold this morning.
It should be for yesterday being the First day of Winter.
But I would have to say that I like the warm weather!

We had a good weekend! We saw some friends on Friday night, went shopping on Saturday, and had a family Christmas party yesterday. And opened some presents.

It was a good weekend, until Jessie and Bobby got home yesterday. Somebody broke into their apartment through their kitchen window while we were at our party. They took their Xbox 360, Bobby's headset to his computer, Jason's PlayStation, and some money. They went through all the drawers, jewelry boxes, moved their computers. Luckily, they didn't take their laptop, desktop computers and the TVs. And luckily, they already had taken over their movies and games to the trailer. So Bobby took off work today, so that him and his family could move their clothes and their food over to the trailer. With the kitchen window being broken, and they obviously knew they weren't home, they could come back again. So they don't want to take any chances. I feel so bad for them. Just a few days before Christmas. Stupid mother fuckers.

I'm glad it's only a 2 1/2 day work week! Half a day on Wednesday!
Hope everyone stays warm today!

TGIF

Thank goodness it's Friday!
Now if only today will go by fast!
Damn Jaguars lost last night.
They were winning heading into half time, and the Colts beat us.
They need to learn not to drop the ball!
Well at least the Gators did good this season!
As Gary says (my dad) "Tebow is my hero!"
We can't wait to watch the championship game! It'll be a good one!
We have a little shopping left to do. Then on Sunday, we're getting together with Gary and Linda to exchange presents. Linda doesn't want Cory to come (Holly's boyfriend) and wants us to tell her. I don't want to tell her that she doesn't want him there cus he looks 3-sheets to the winds all the time. He was drunk when we were over there last time, and he kept on drinking. He was like that at our wedding too, so I don't blame her that much. I just think that she should tell them. I'm going to give Holly Gary's number and have her call him.
Lilly is still climbing the Christmas Tree.
I've tried orange peels, moth balls, citrus scent air freshener, spraying her with water, and I pretty much tied the ornaments to the tree. She just about gets to the top now, and is eventually going to knock it over or the star on top off.
All of the presents are now in the linen closet.
I think I might have to re-wrap Jessie's cus it's all messed up now.
Well I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and a fantastic weekend!

Thursday, December 18, 2008

So sleepy...

I wish today was Friday!
I'm so ready for the weekend. Travis and I both are.
We're still trying to catch up on our rest from last weekend.
Well, our family Christmas party is Christmas Eve now. Then Mom said that everyone can have Christmas day to themselves and the long weekend.
We're going to go find Travis so new work boots this weekend. It's his present.
Then he's going to research me a new camera tomorrow when he's off.
We're waiting until Christmas morning to open what his parents send us.
I hope I get some money to go shopping!
It's laundry day with Jessie.
At least the weather is nice. It's been in the 70's all week.
At my Grandma's last night, my cousin had her new baby boy. He'll be 5 months next Tuesday. He's the cutest baby!
Travis and I said we're not having anytime soon.
I'll be at least 30 if not older when the time comes.
Hope everyone has a good day!

Hump Day

It's hump day! That means only 2 more days till the weekend!
I found out that we're going to be getting off early on Christmas Eve, and we have Christmas and the Friday off after.
Then for New Years, we're off New Year's Day, and the day after.
So 2 weeks in a row, we'll be having a 4 day weekend!
Plenty of time to catch up on sleep.
At lunch today, I'm going to get some more Christmas presents. I'm not really doing all that much this year.
Travis is getting a nice new pair of work boots, and I'm getting a new camera and we'll share an Ipod. So I think it should be a good Christmas.
I hope I get some money so I can go shopping for some new clothes.
I want to get Lilly some new bowls and a new litter pan. She gets that crap all over the living room.
I cleaned last night and Travis made his dinner.
Then I dozed on the couch. Travis was napping when I got home.
Tonight, we'll be going over to Grandma's for cake and ice cream for my aunt.
I found New Moon online, and I'm reading while I'm here at work. I like it so far.
Well hope everyone has a good Hump Day!

Finished reading Twilight!

I just got done reading Twilight!
I love the book!
It gives more details than the movie!
Now I need to get the other 3!

Still Sleepy

I'm tired today again.
I don't think I'm caught up on my sleep yet. I dozed on the couch last night while Travis watched the football game. He's happy that the Eagles won.
I went and saw Jessie's new place yesterday.
It's not too bad considering it was only $3000.
Needs some updating, but it'll be a good home for them.
I guess our family Christmas party is changing again to next weekend. More family can come then. I forgot to get the money from Travis so I could go shopping at lunch. I still need to go and get some moth balls. Lilly knocked a bulb off this morning and broke it. So I need to find a way to keep her off it. She's a brat...
I'm going to cook and clean tonight.
Exactly what I want to do when I go home! (Not)
I'm ready for the weekend!
Is it 5 yet?

Tired

We had a wonderful weekend, it was just too short.
Friday after work, we dropped Lilly off at Jessie's, stopped by McDonald's and headed to Orlando. We got down there, and sat around the fire and talked with Gary and Linda.
Then we got up on Saturday, and headed to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. My two favorite rides are The Simpson's and Spider Man. We had so much fun. Travis, Jessie, Bobby and Gary rode the Hulk and Dueling Dragons. I didn't ride the roller coasters. Then we had dinner at the NASCAR Grille. And a drink at Margaritaville.
Then yesterday we were all so tired from Saturday, we didn't do anything. Travis and I came home, and watched some football and had dinner.
Jessie and Bobby are moving into their new trailer this week. They get the key today. So I'm going to find some boxes and go see it today after work.
On Wednesday, we have to go have cake and ice cream for my aunt's birthday. Then next weekend, we have 2 family Christmas parties. So it'll be a busy week.
I've been reading Twilight. I found it last week on the computer. It's so different from the book. I love it so much more. Now that I've seen the movie also, it seems like they rushed it. But it's awesome!
Hope everyone has a good Monday!

Yucky Weather

It's looks so dreary outside right now.
We're already under a tornado warning, and I don't think it's even raining yet.
It's about 70 outside right now, which is the high today, then it's supposed to just get colder and colder. Tomorrow's high is only 60. I'll be happy when this damn weather makes up it's mind.
I have to go pick up my car after work, and go grocery shopping, then go home and pack. I'm not going to want to be out and about if it's going to be as nasty as they say...
I checked the weather for this weekend, and it's supposed to be mostly sunny Saturday and Sunday, and I think it's going to be in the 70's. Perfect weather for the parks.
Travis went to work this morning. I hope he gets to stay all day. He needs the hours, or his paycheck is going to suck again.
I found Twilight online to read. I printed off the first half. I'm going to be reading that today. It's weird that I already know what's going to happen. I like that your reading it from Bella's view.
Hope everyone has a good Thursday!
Is it 5 yet on Friday yet?

Loooong Day....

I have a feeling that today is going to seem really long...
But at least it's hump day, that means the week is half over!
Guess what?
Travis is home today, again.
He called me yesterday about 12:30 and said they were out of trucks. So he called in this morning, and still no trucks!
I told him, I'll be the bread winner today! He said to bring home the bacon. His paycheck this week is going to be short, and next week is going to be short too.
I'm glad we have the money in savings that we saved up for the house. I least I can get my 40 hours.
It's gloomy here today, perfect day to go home and cuddle up with the one you love...
Fat chance!
Hope everyone has a good hump day!

Ready to go home...

I'm ready for this day to be over with...
Travis is already off of work. He's taking his dirt bike and the box with the camping stuff and tools to my Grandma's so we'll have room in the van this weekend. Then he said something about calling Adam to see if he wanted to go ride motorcycles together.
Me on the other hand, is stuck here at work for 2 1/2 more hours. Then when I get off, I get to go fight traffic to head into Orange Park to drop my car off at the dealership so they can fix the light and headliner. Then I get to go home and clean. So me getting to rest at all isn't going to happen till about 8 o'clock tonight.
It's a long day...

Monday, December 8, 2008

Boo for Mondays...

How I wish weekends were just a little bit longer...
They seem to go by so quick, and the week goes by so slow...
I don't feel all the good this morning. My tummy don't feel good... but other than that, I'm just tired. If I felt better, I could drink my coffee to warm me up.
It was freezing this morning. Literally. It was 34 degrees when we woke up this morning. Our freeze watch was from 5 am to 8 am. Then I get downstairs and my car wont start. Which doesn't make any sense. Luckily, Travis was on his way downstairs so I didn't have to wake him.
I have an eye doctors appointment today. I might also be getting a new pair of glasses. I have a coupon for $129, which includes an eye exam, contacts, and a pair of glasses. I have my old frames, but the prescription for them is so old. I wonder how bad my eyes are now...
I guess on Friday night, me, Travis, Jessie and Bobby are headed down to Orlando. Gary called us yesterday, and now I guess we're going to go to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. There are more for adults there and the Magic Kingdom is more for kids. I asked Jessie to ask Jason if he wouldn't mind if Lilly stayed with him. I don't want her to be by herself for 2 nights and 2 days. And he'll be home by himself too.
My bike wouldn't start yesterday. We were going to go look at some houses, and go for a ride since we haven't gone in a while. Oh no, damn thing wouldn't keep running. It had gas, and Travis even cleaned my carbs, and still nothing. So we just took his. When I was taking my cover off, there was a cat underneath it, sitting on my seat. I bet it was warm, and out of the wind. It was funny.
Well I hope everyone has as good a Monday as they can.
At least I get to leave a little early today!

Friday, December 5, 2008

Loving Twilight!

I'm so happy it's Friday!
I'll be even happier when it's time to go home!
Thanks to Jessica, I'm watching Twilight!
It's a good thing I don't have anything better to do at work.
Nobody cares I'm watching it cus I'm still technically doing my job!
I love it so far!
Now, I just have to read the books. It's backward, I know... But I still love the movie!
We don't have any plans for this weekend.
Hanging out tonight, probably with Adam.
Then tomorrow at 3:30 is the SEC Championship game with the Gators!
I hope they win! That would be awesome! We're defiantly watching it tomorrow.
Other than that, I'm not really sure.
It'll be nice to be home this weekend, with us going to be gone next weekend. It'll be fun!
Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!
Have a great weekend!

Thursday, December 4, 2008

Don't feel like it today...

I'm so glad tomorrow is Friday!
I wish today was Friday.
I have to do laundry tonight by myself.
Jessie is working late again.
Maybe Travis will come with me, but I doubt it.
He would rather stay home and play on the computer.
If I went home and saw him, then it's too much of a hassle to keep going back up there, even though it's at the end of the street.
I'm not sure what our plans are for this weekend.
I don't have to take my car in until next Tuesday.
He said they'll give a one day loaner.
I work and need a car to drive.
With how cold it's been, Travis hasn't been riding his motorcycle.
I think the kitty here at work is pregnant. If she wasn't I would talk Travis into letting me take her home. But I don't want all her babies too. She's scared of people, but has started to come around to a few of us. It would be hard to get her into something to take her home in. She would need to go to a vet and be checked out and a major flea bath before she was allowed in the apartment. We finally got rid of Lilly's fleas, and I don't want any more.
Travis already called this morning and said they don't have much to do at work. That means he'll probably be getting off early, again. He's not even going to have 30 hours this week.

Is it 5 yet?

Wednesday, December 3, 2008

Frost this morning...

I haven't done much of anything lately.
With Travis getting off earlier now, it's messing up my evenings. I used to having 2 hours to myself before he gets home. Now I only have an hour. And I don't like working out in front of him. And since we moved the computer to the living room, that's the only place he is. And in order for me to do my yoga from OnDemand, he's in the room. I like following the videos better, then I know I'm doing it right. But tonight, I have to clean... So I hope I'll get to work out at least some. I've been better on my food for dinner. Yeah!
My left contact is bothering my eye today. I can't wait to get new one's on Monday. I just hope it's not like this all day.
I called to see about taking in my car to get the headliner fixed. And when we picked up last, he said it would be about a week, and I would need a loaner. I called in yesterday, and the damn lady had no idea what was going on. Then I said I would need a loaner, and she didn't have one then. So she said she'll call me back when they had one. Hopefully they call today or tomorrow. I doing what they told me to do. I hate that place...
Hope everyone has a good Hump Day!

Tuesday, December 2, 2008

Happy Birthday Jessica!

It's Tuesday, and I'm sick again.
Not as bad as yesterday morning, but still not normal.
I want to change this type of birth control, but I'm not sure what too. I hate being sick every time I start a new pack, the week after my monthly bill.
I'll look into it today.
Travis was home last night. He only worked for about 2 hours yesterday. Then he goes home and takes a nap. Then he paid rent, and worked on the motorcycles. Then I come home, and he's on the computer. And I have to make him mashed potatoes for dinner tonight. Why is it when I work all day long, and he's home, I still come home and do things for him. MEN...
Travis getting up with me in the mornings is weird. We only have one bathroom. That's where I get ready in the mornings. Well with him getting up now, it changes things. He needs in the bathroom right when I'm getting ready to put his contacts in. Then Lilly is all over the place. It'll be nice if we ever get a home with more than one bathroom!
It's supposed to freeze again tonight. It was warm last week, now it's only getting to 54 for the high with a freeze. I'll have to bring my plants in. It just sucks that our apartment is so cold.
Well hope everyone has a good day!
Happy Birthday Jessica! Hope it's a good one!

Monday, December 1, 2008

Looong day...

We had a wonderful weekend!
I think all weekends should be that long!
I started a new pack of pills, and I don't feel all the good right now. I'd be okay if my stomach would straighten out.
Thursday was a day of visiting and calling family members, and cooking. First Mom and Grandma stopped by. Then Jessie and Bobby showed up. Then as Mom and Grandma were leaving, Gary and Linda stopped by. It was nice to see everyone. We had a wonderful dinner, even though it was just the two of us.
We are still eating ham.
Then on Friday, we hung around the house. I wasn't going anywhere with everyone out shopping. So we put up Christmas. We have our tree, and decorations in every room. And it's all of our stuff. Between what we bought at the end of last year, and the things from my great aunt. It's so nice and cozy looking at night with the lights.
Then on Saturday, Gary and Linda invited us out to their motor home to watch the Gator Game. It was raining so bad in Tallahassee during the game. The Gators were so dirty. But won!
It was nice. Pam, Dave, Tyler, me, Travis, Jessie, Bobby, Holly, Cory, Gary, Linda, her friend Carol and eventually her daughter. We grilled and hung out. That doesn't happen often with the 4 of us girls together, with our men.
Then we get home, and Linda calls and asks if we would like to go to Disney World next weekend with them. It would be for Saturday and Sunday. She said they would get our tickets, and give us spending money. I think it'll be me, Travis, Jessie and Bobby. It's supposed to be a lot of fun. So we'll have to see what happens!
Yesterday was rainy, so another day to chill at home!
Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!
Is it 5 yet?
