Tuesday

Horrid day. Boring.... wretched. Hoping i don't have to join the meeting. Trying to make pretty reports. Hoping i don't explode and punch someone. He does deserve it, oh how badly he does. UPDATE: I'm off the hook so far! Sweet marmalade! I was about 90% certain i was going to get yelled at today. So far that wont happen.... so far.

So anyhow, crocheting still happening. No soccer last night. Went to my moms last night. She made yummy food. We got into a tiff at the end of the night. Yeah i annoyed her but she didn't have to pinch my fat so hard. Grrrrrr. But we hugged and made up. Fun times!

Pay day needs to come like now i want to:

- Pay off Credit Card #5
- Pay back someone for an iPod
- Buy some new cheap sweaters

Speaking of iPods i got a purple iPod Nano that i seem to be in love with. it's cute and has all these neat things. So what if Apple is trying to systematically control each human by getting them all to buy iPods. I guess I'm a Pod person now. (i know the horror.)

Sunday we had lunch at Honeys Dad's house. It was interesting. His step mom and I had a good conversation about Stores and their customer loyalty base. how some places stay in business and you wonder how. don't get me wrong i <3 the big K but how do they stay in business? while their clearance items are awesome.... their everyday prices on everyday things leave something to be desired. Anyhow, it's all very interesting.... kind makes me interested in business until i realize i hate corporations and selling. I'm to honest and i care too much.

Well I'm done now. You talk.

It's the book end

FRIDAY!

You know around here Fridays are like gold....ok better then gold b/c i don't like yellow gold but gold is worth money so i guess lets look at it that way.....Fridays are like gold. (lol) And it's Friday and though i have no idea what i am really doing this weekend.... it's a weekend. And as long as i'm not going to the dentist, or some other doctor it should be FUN!!

I am rapidly getting done the baby star blanket as i suspected would happen. (Hey sis i will totally make you one in lap size.... pick out some colors!!) I haven't gotten much of the newest forever blanket done....no sweat. I do however need to buy more yarn for the newest forever blanket.

I have over the last year maybe 2 fallen in love with these amazing wedding photographers and thought how awesome would it be to have them there for my wedding. BUT in REAL life i can't afford them and even if could do i want to pay that much? AWESOME PICS yes but i don't want to be paying for my wedding years after my wedding. So i think most likely there wont be a photographer just the people around us pictures. Is that crazy?

My goal for my "wedding" is to not spend too much but still have fun and make it our own. I already have one giant part of it in place and i kind of don't care too much about the rest. As far as the food and such goes....doesn't mass production of food always suck? i kind of just wish i could have yummy appetizers but i know i can't. People going to a party at night would want dinner or they might start getting crabby.

So anyways will this blog become an all about wedding blog.... doubt it. from time to time i might talk about it. but i don't see it becoming an every post topic.

Anyways, my b-day was awesome! SUPER fun! SUPER GREAT! SUPER THANKS TO EVERYONE! :o) (i think i gained 10 pounds....)

28

Today I am now 28… do you think our bodies know it’s our birthday? Do you think they remember being born? Yep those are my deep deep thoughts at the age of 28!!

I am having an awesome birthday it started last night at my sisters! Her Husband and her got me cuppycakes, an Elvis mini suit case (which totally reminds me of the cute little suit cases we had growing up so fun!), an Elvis skull t-shirt, and a Perez notebook! LOL Then she made me a mustache stamp and an angel mail stamp! FUN! My mom made me yummy food and she bought me a pretty flower ring and bracelet, and exercise videos!! Also my mom made me chocolate chip cookies my favorite!! Then we all proceeded to have fun!

At midnight my honey wished me a happy birthday! (although it’s not as neat as the year he wrote happy birthday on his stomach with glitter glue and when he took the glitter glue off it was still there b/c it left a mark….ooops but cute.) Today at work I got flowers, a cookie cake (I didn’t eat any b/c….), my awesome co-workers also got me a giant ricekrispie treat that I wanted!!! They are awesome!! Then we got lunch and we got to take an extra 30 minutes for lunch!!

Tonight is POCOS! And who knows what else! I get to see my awesome friend Julie! She makes me want to be a better person. I can’t wait to hear her stories from this summer and her travels. I also get to see my other awesome friends Katie (hmmmm the topazluvskatie Katie….) and Charis (she has the cute not so baby anymore baby John). AND the honey face will be joining us as well! FUN!

And I appreciate all the happy wishes from everyone…. It’s enough to make a girl think she is important or something. :o) ok bye bye now.

Productive

Well this weekend as weekends go did not go according to plan but it was still fun. Friday my friend Kristin and I jogged/walked/died. then she took me to Rey Azteca for a early b-day dinner! The honey joined us so that was fun. Then we did some light shopping. I got two pairs of tights and that's about it. Kristin however found a few cute things! Good shopping!!

Then Saturday I visited Katie in the morning. where Pumpkin pancakes were made! Yum!! Then i visited my mother. She is cute. Then i visited the storage unit. (it makes me sad inside to see all my pretty things hiding away forever ever ever ever.) Then i went to a b-day dinner for someone else! Heather my honeys sister. Everyone steals my b-day thunder. LOL not really. It's nice to share your b-day!

Sunday oh poor Sunday didn't see it coming. Sunday i let us sleep in only to lead to the demise of our plans. So i ended up.....doing lots of laundry. Discovering the "soak" cycle, the "pre-wash" cycle and the "2nd rinse" cycle on the washing machine. No i didn't use them all for all my laundry just the 2nd rinse was nice for the comforter it needed it. Anyways, i also cleaned my closet (preparing for shopping.....), finished the two bags i have been working on and had a very yummy dinner made by my honey face.

Monday was glorious soccer! There was another girl there and she was really good. Hope she comes back again. The field was wet and there were tons of people there. I think it was the most people i have seen all season! Crazy. And i forgot to give a finished bag to my brother in-law to give my sister. Dang it!!

Today is Tuesday which = buy a meal at chick-fil-a keep the receipt bring it back in October and get the same meal for free!!! So even though it's also an evil place day it has it's good points. Last night i started a baby blanket in the shape of a star and it's really cute! I can't wait to see it finished!! it should go fast enough b/c it's a baby blanket.... i.e. not a giant forever monster blanket that will take over all my free time! (yeah i know i started another one of those as well.)

Tomorrow is magical cuppy cake day/night!!!! Then it's Pocos night (and i guess if you get technical it's my 28th birthday) (and yes i caved and made 3 of my friends agree to go to Pocos with me......what can i say i'm a sucker for Pocos.) Then who knows what the rest of the week holds.

I swear i had something to rant about...but thinking about food has made this foodie distracted. O'well have a yummy day!

I tell you what!

So i am just starting the process of planning my not so wedding wedding.... it's a long process i know even if we most likely wont be getting married until 2011. I'm writing e-mails seeing what is possible and being a ball of nerves waiting. The waiting..... maybe people aren't even taking me seriously....maybe they think I'm joking around....maybe i should call them and hear their laughter first hand....i swear i can't be the 1st person to have this idea....or even the last. I bet i may not be the only one who wants to do it around that time that year. So it begins!

Will i be a bride zilla doubt it. More like a penny pinching patty! I really don't want to spend more then a years worth of paychecks on a wedding. In fact i would like to spend less then $5000 if i had my way. But only time will tell.

Am i getting excited well yeah! wait let me try again YEAH! :) With every conversation we have it becomes more real and that is lovely.

But other things i am excited about:
Zip lining
Snowboarding
Back packing
Crocheting another forever blanket (didn't i just say i wasn't going to be making another one for a long time....)
Paying another bill off (hey did you know my car will be paid off this month and i paid a credit card off as well!)
Oh and least i forget my B-DAY!!!! (Cuppy cakes Ahoy!)

OK it's Friday and i should go be nervous somewhere else. Bye bye now (the miss-spelled words are the ones i made up. LOL)

What you say...

So my birthday plans aren't really coming along mostly because i don't feel like making them. LOL It would be nice to get people together but i'm not lazy maybe worn out or i just don't feel like i know where to begin. I started asking people and the fact that it was already falling apart then made me just putter out. So it will be a first come first serve kind of birthday.... if you want it i'm here if not... o'well.
(and no i'm not saying this to get pity or something i'm just stating the facts i'm too old for trying to get everyone to agree to one day)

i can't believe my birthday is next week! Next week i will be 28. Does it scare me or make me crazy not really. So i'm another year closer to 30 and what? Will i have lost all my youth and charm and have shriveled into an old bag? NOPE already did that. That happened around 2:30pmish on Saturday when i was surrounded by young ladies and their skinny super long legs. There high energy and fabulous looks. Damn Irish dancing little scamps in their short shorts. It was then that i looked around me and thought I am old and shriveled. LOL o'well such is life.

well i should go.....b/c i kinda sorta have to work or something....

An update or something

So you can see what i actually did.

- buy veggies * this indeed did get done. quite fast and come to think of it i still owe honey money for that.... oops.

- make side dish * another actual event of happening. It was ok don't know if i would make it again....no one really told me how it tasted so my guess is they didn't like it o'well.

- clip the last hanging pc of yarn! * that totally happened! Also i finally passed the forever blanket on! she really loved it which was super awesome! Now to get to the other projects ready to be made.

- post pictures * nope didn't happen. maybe next time.

- con someone into going for a hike with me * really didn't happen. I was tired so i let everyone sleep in (by everyone i mean me and the honey.).

- picnic * YES this happened twice! Fun and more fun!!

- play soccer * You bet your sweet tea this happened. I ♥ soccer.

- flea market * Nope. People dropped out and then i slept in. Was being stuck in flea market traffic on the way to soccer a slap in the face....perhaps.

- run * Yes! i know right! It helps when you have some one to run with.

- rest * Yes see not hiking and not flea marketing for further re-enforcement that it happened.

- eat * Certainly did! too much perhaps....but what is a girl supposed to do turn away a pc of banana split cake?

So this labor day weekend was not long enough (are they ever) but it was fun! I still can't believe it's September which also happens to be my birth month! Still trying to figure out when to force my friends to go to Poco's with me for my b-day. See i was thinking on my b-day since it's a Thursday and i know 2 of my friends have free that evening. But it's a mess trying to get people together have you noticed that?

In other news....well i don't know. LOL Oh today is hopefully yummy cupcake bar day! YES! alright I'm out! have a swell well look at that it's Thursday already!

Dark Clouds

I am surrounded by them as of late and chasing them away is getting to be tiring! but I'll keep doing this because who else is going to? before you ask it's not my life covered by dark clouds and yes I'm fine with helping where i can! I just wish i could magically heal the broken. But i am aware only time can do this task. Cryptic? maybe. but it's not my place to be going on and on about someone else's life! Just know that so far I'm 2 out of 3.

- clip the last hanging pc of yarn!
- post pictures
- con someone into going for a hike with me
- picnic
