Catching Up
I’ve been too lazy to post anything about my life lately. So I thought that it would be easy to just do a mass blog.
I’ve had two migranes in the past week just one tonight. It’s dreadful. I just got a refill on my patches and I don’t think I’ve drank enough water today either. Either way, I hate how debilitating it is.
I’ve read 200ish pages of Midnight Sun....
Fueling an Obsession
Last night I went to Stephanie Meyers website (author of Twilight Series) and read the Midnight Sun. It’s 264 pages of Edward’s version of Twilight. I must admit I enjoyed it better than Bella’s version, well almost. It was interesting to read the same story from a different character’s perspective. I finished it today like a giddy school girl. I crave more from this...
Baby Explosion
I went home this past week and was amazed at the baby explosion from the 2002 graduating class of Teutopolis High School. I’ve been out what almost 7 years, I suppose it’s ideal time to have a baby. (Some have 3 already) It’s no secret that I want a baby too, I teach preschool and I want one of my own, but I can’t help “parentally behind.” Tyler laughs when I...
New Year's Resolutions
Tis that time of year when people all over the world come up with New Year’s Resolutions. I too have been guilty of unrealistic goals/resolutions. I fall off the badwagon about mid-February. I really want/need to keep this coming year’s resolutions. Here they are for all the world to see…

The Wheels on the Bus
So about once a week, Tuesdays, I follow the prison bus home. As I turn down third Ave the bus or buses are pulling into the jail. These buses look straight outta Con-Air. Could they really be that old? The model has to be the same year as the first Volkswagon bug. It makes me wonder what the inside looks like. I can only image pea green seats with rusty bars. Hell I don’t know what the...
Someone has pointed out...
That I forgot to mention that I will be rocking out with Kelly too. It’s been what 3 months since I’ve seen you! At least one night out with Kelly is a must!! See you in a few days!
Uhhh.
I got up a half hour to run/walk. EXERCISE. People all over the world do it. I used to do it, but the first day is grueling. Trying to get your eyes open and your muscles to work properly is really tricky. And of course it’s raining again today. How many more days of this will there be? I survived and here’s to doing it again tomorrow.
Annoyed
Nothing is more annoying than wanting to go to bed but having to wait on the stupid washing machine. I need a work shirt clean!
Upcoming Week Plans
Saturday- Noon lunch at Laue’s (Bierman Christmas) We’ll be rocking it out early to slide in by lunch. Not excited about the 5 AM wake up call!
Evening-Night on the town!!
Sunday- Zacha Christmas at Noon (Shumway)
Tyler’s immediate family Christmas Celebration (Evening)
Monday- Cleaning my old closet/ high school totes…yuck, but productive. Rocking a sweet lunch with...
Chug Chug
Uhhh, it’s only Wednesday! This week is trudging along at a snails pace. It’s probably because I’m looking forward to going back to Illinois.
The End
I finally finished the last of the Twilight series. The first time I’ve ever read 800 pages in two days. It was grueling. All I craved and wanted to do was to find out what happened next. The ending was good maybe even the best. All my answers were answered and I left the book feeling at peace. Do I still wish that Edward would fly to my window and take me “hunting?” Uh duh?...
I'm Going
I’ve decided to go watch Twilight. All by myself at 3:50. I’m so excited I’m about to burst. Just like a teenage drama queen only I’ll be the one drinking diet coke instead of vault!
Eclipse
Well I reached almost the end of the third book in the Twilight series. I’ve heard that it’s the best one and now I totally agree. There is so much going on. I don’t want it to end but then I do so that I may resume my old life and not live in my fantasy world on the couch. Poor Tyler, he’ll never have hair like my vampire hero. Now the current debate is to go see the movie...
Trucker Lingo
Okay, so I need someone to catch me up on trucker light lingo. What’s the hey you crazy bitch light? One blink, does that mean go ahead you can slide in?
Hell Froze Over in Nashville
I left early this morning anticiptating grabbing gas or Starbucks. Well…Tyler called as I was approaching exit 76. (My work exit is 68B) He called to warn me that there was a huge wreck and to expect delays. Yeah yeah okay. Well after coming to a complete stop, I finally called work. Apparently the wreck had happened at 6:30 AM and the interstate would be closed until 10 AM. Fuck! Guess who...
2 hour mark!
An hour and counting!
Two of a Kind
My mom called me today to talk to me about a Christmas present for one of my family members. She also said that my sister is planning a “homeless party” complete with cardboard boxes and that my brother was caught eating the chocolate covered peanuts that were for my dad in the shower!!! I love you both, but honesty where does your creativity come from??
Embarrassed but True
I’m more excited about the Twilight series that came today than the down payment from Tyler’s freelance work. My checkbook will be happy, but I think my girly crush is even happier!!
Did you know?
You put up a Christmas tree because some of my distant 19th century German ancestors thought that it would be fashionable to put one indoors! Who knew?
Smorgasbord
We had a cookie swap today. I thought everyone was supposed to do it. Apparently not. Not much of a swap if not a lot of people do it!
I got a subscription of Cosmo free or I just paid the first year about five years ago and they keep sending me one. The magazine is total crap. Who does all that kinky sex crap anyway and really someone has a job to come up with 101 ways to please your lover!...
Exciting Events at Primrose
Many things are happening this week at work. Our cookie swap is Tuesday. I’m supposed to bake/ice 3 dozen cookies to swap with the other ladies at work. I bought Pilsbury slice and bake and some cake icing. I like eat cookies just not bake them. My Christmas party is Thursday night at the owners house in Hilsburo. It’s catered and I have to bring an ornament to play dirty santa with....
This version of Home is by Blake Shelton....
LBD Drama Solved...Thanks Tyler
The belt was on backwards. Tyler looked at it and turned it around. There went 25 minutes of my life!!
LBD
So I’ve finally purchased my first LBD that’s Little Black Dress. I’m really hoping to get some use outta it. Sometimes it feels so boring to wear just black other times it feels pretty and sexy. My current dilema is that I can’t remember how to do this stupid belt thing in front to give me that hour glass figure. Maybe Tyler knows or may Google is more reliable.
Always Tired
I’m always tired. At the end of the day, I am emotionally and physically drained. I can barely move off the couch let alone do a full work out. Last week I even researched being diabetic,because one of the key symptoms is extreme fatigue. This week, well today, I think I’ve realized my answer. I TEACH. It looks like an easy job, but as a teacher of 12, so days I feel as is building the...
It Came!
My Windsor Pilates workout set finally came. I totally tired it tonight. I now realize why I was never on the pom squad in high school. Well the fat burning workout. I love the circle resistance band workout, but I’ll have try many times to be as good as the instructors on the areobics one. I can’t get the count down. No need to get discouraged it willcome with time. I’m just...
An End or The Beginning?
Well after 3 nights of doing absolutely nothing but sitting on my ass reading (even in the bathtub, sadly yes), I’ve finished the book Twilight! I am so completely obsessed wtih this book and I pain with anticipation for my sister to mail the next book. I got completely lost in the book. It was all I thought about. I felt like ass this morning and probably should have called in but one of...
Messing with Bangs
How do you know if they are styled correctly or just look like a frazzled mess? If I push them up after washing my face they stand straight in the air. They are super cute and trendy but I’m still learning how to style them. So frustrating!!!
Two things for sure...
I can barely make it away from the box of klenexes and I’m completely in love with the book Twlight. If work really wasn’t something I had to do, I’d stay up all night and read. It’s been along time since I’ve craved a book this much. I’ve heard mixed reviews about the movie, but I WANT to see it after finishing the book. I put the sequels on my Christmas wish...
