Not much going on...

I really haven't much to write about lately. I have been healing from back problems... so good not to be in pain all day long. ;) I went home for Thanksgiving, and had the time of my life. Just hanging out with the family was great. I miss them a lot lately. Holidays aren't fun without family around. Tonight, all I could think about is this angel we have up north, that just beeps/flashing the songs. But, I remember just listening to it with my mom in the dark with a village behind it all lit up. Do you ever think about things you did when you were home, and how much you miss it? But, I should tell you that life is going good. I am truly happy here in Indiana.
I just love Christmas. I do get to go home for 7 days this Christmas. I can't wait.
Oh, I do have news. I got a flat screen TV. It is so much better than my old one. People aren't red... never knew that. J/king! I almost got a cat too. There was this cat at Gateway and we needed to find it a home. I volunteered to take it home, and make it an outdoor cat. But, sadly, it disappeared that night and thus didn't get to take it home. But, one of my roommates said I could get a kitten in the spring, and make it the outdoor cat. Yeah! Well, that is it for now. I hope that you have a WONDERFUL CHRISTmas.

Life is always changing...

This has been a very rough week for me. I will start from the beginning. On Monday, I found out that one of my former residents had gotten married on Oct. 17th and her baby/wedding shower was going to be on Saturday. I was excited for her. The baby was due beginning of December. Everything was going well for her. Well, Wednesday, I found out that she got into a motorcycle accident and died. Her husband and baby died as well.
Today was the funeral. It was one of the hardest things to go through in my life. To see someone so young pass away at such a young age, it's just hard to understand. I have to believe that God had a reason for this. That he wanted this family in heaven.
My plea for you today is don't waste time.... don't think there will be a tomorrow. God blesses us with each day and we don't know when it will be our last.

I have been tagged... GRRRRRRR

1. I was a DJ for three and a half years, and I was on cable for one year. Also, I had a follower named Creature... Thank God I never met him.

2. I found a salamander in my garage two days ago, and have decided to keep him. His name is Mikey. I think my fish "TIBBS" is a little jealous. Mikey took his bowl. :( Also, if any knows what to feed a salamander, please call me.... I think he might be hungry.

3. I love to watch A&E movies.... you know Pride and Prejudice kind.

4. I have over 50 monopoly games and am still collecting. If you feel so inclined to buy me any... I need Indiana Jones, Narnia, the new world edition, MEGA monopoly... the list goes on forever.

5. I love the smell of Apples. I can't get the smell enough. Instead of a bouquet of flowers, I would want a basket full of Beautiful Apples, that smell sssssssssssssooooooooooooo delicious.

6. I am going to Nova Scotia next summer for 12 days. This is the largest road trip I will have ever taken. I am also going to brush up on my french. After 10 years of French, all I can say is hello, how are you? Pretty sad!

7. I am a secret pyromaniac. I am fascinated with fire. I love to play with fire (only with candles, I know better to do anything else). So, I am also running out of candles to play with, so if you want to get rid of any just let me know. :)

Well, I fill my part of the bargain. Unfortunately, everyone I know is tagged. Oh well....

Crazy Week

So, if you don't know this is auction week for me. These are a few things I have learned this week:

1. Don't live alone, you get paranoid when your roommates are gone. (I heard knocking ALL NIGHT LONG. Really All night LONGGGGG!)
2. Weekly shopping plus other people's request equals 9 carts of food and milk.
3. Olympics and auction week don't mix. (Olympics should know they can't schedule things without asking me. :))
4. When the storm drain is plugged, your basement will flood.
5. When your over 6ft. tall, it's hard to see a 8 inch tall dog. (Don't worry I'm fine)... Oops, so is the dog too.
6. No Sleep (due to Olympics), means NO patience.

Well, I am sure that I can think of more things, but I am tired. Plus Michael Phelps is on in twenty minutes. I hope to see you at the auction. There is some amazing stuff this year. Including a dinner with my house. So, come on out and have a GREAT time.

I WENT KAYAKING!!!!

Let me tell you about my experience kayaking... I was SCARED out of my mind. I had thoughts about drowning because my kayak would not flip back or some how my legs would get stuck in the kayak and can not get out. My mind was on fire. But luckily my friends convinced me to get out of my comfort zone. So, at about 11:30pm at night, I got in a boat with Chalise and went for it.
We went down the St. Joe River and back. It was the most amazing time of my life. I wish I would had a camera. The moon was surrounded by the clouds. It just so beautiful, and peaceful. I could see this as a new love... Hmmm... But that involves me buying a kayak. Maybe down the road, I could marry a rich guy to buy me a kayak and a black corvette. But, the corvette is a difference story. Well, that is all for now. See ya later;)

I have a pet!!!!!!

Okay... So, I haven't blogged for a while. Well, I have been extremely busy with summer and personal things that needed to be taken care of. So, you will have to forgive me. On to new news... I have a pet. I finally got a fish. Not just any fish a Beta. He is super cute, and he is a rich blue. I don't have a name for him yet, but that's is where you guys come in... I need suggestions. Do you have any?

Josh Groban...

So, I don't know if you all know how much I am a Josh Groban fan. Well, anyways, I got his new CD/DVD and I am little disappointed. Usually, I am just ecstatic beyond belief, the DVD was up to par, but I was sadden that the CD, only had one new song. Which, if you were a Josh Groban fan, you know that is very odd.
Have you ever been disappointed with a product, that you just couldn't wait to have? I just remember as I opened my mailbox, to find a box. I got into the house, opened the box, and just leap with excitement to find Josh staring back at me. I put the CD into my laptop and found disappointment. It just leaves you with sadness. Oh well, I still like the CD/ DVD. I am, also, comforted to know that a tour is soon to follow.

So,... Just felt like writing about that.
