Working again!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I know I did. I spend Christmas Eve with my family, it was a very busy day, but paid off in the end. Then Christmas day I worked 6am-6pm and when I got off work was able to spend the evening with my parents and a few friends of mine. They got me an awesome yarn tote bag and storage unit along with some books and other fun stuff. I'll have to post a pic of it on here later. Thank you so much guys, it will definitly help me get my yarn out of shopping bags and into a nice place. So here I am again at work. There was a sick call tonight, so being the sucker I am and hurting for money now, I decided what the hell, I get paid holiday pay and OT to sit on my butt, watch movies, read, knit and play computer games. So basically I'm doing the same thing I would be doing at home just getting paid for it. Well I hope everyone has a wonderful evening.

Working!

Ok so here I sit, at work, waiting for our tones to go off so we can go on a call. We've had 2 calls so far neither one of them were really any "good". The first was a vehicle roll over, the truck was smashed, but the kid got out ok with just a few cuts and scraps on the legs, the second was a guy who might have been drinking but he refused to go to the hospital too, so we went and played for a short while and then came back to sit. Ok so finished the second New Moon a few days ago and am on the third book and really am enjoying it. I'm half was done with my nephew's blanket for christmas, it's down to the wire so I should probably get off the computer and get back to knitting.

Twilight!

Ok so I'll keep this short and sweet because I'm exhausted and ready for bed. I just got home a little bit ago from going to see Twilight with my friend Joe. It was a great movie, I just wish it had followed the book a little closer. Also I had a problem with the actor they chose as Edward. I thought they could have chosen someone better looking, but I guess since it is a teen movie, they have to gear toward that audience. Ok but over all great movie. I'm almost done with the 2nd book and have the last 2 to read this weekend. I'll update on those later.

The Dressed Tree

Ok so its now time for me to get in the holiday spirit and decorate my tree. I went to the store today and got all my baking stuff to make cookies, which is my favorite thing to do! As I was sitting here watching christmas movies I decided it was about time to get my butt in gear decorate and get baking. So here's my tree, my favorite pink snowman, and the lonely stocking on my fireplace. I think I'm finally starting to feel the holiday spirit, it helps that finals are over too!

after the nervous breakdown and tree update

Ok so last night I think I had a mental breakdown, thank you Joe for letting me yell (in CAPS) over IM to you. I bet you laughed at that one, and for letting me tell you I ate a whole pizza to myself. Damn I'm a pig. But after my water heater leaking on friday and my heat going out sat night, I guess I needed a whole pizza to myself. Ok so after realizing that I couldn't really learn anything new for my finals and I could only review I relaxed and watched some TV. I know I know, I should have been studying, but it just didn't work out. So I went to sleep, woke up early and reviewed, and I think I actually did ok on today's test. 3 more to go tomorrow and I'm done, then it's off to see Twilight friday night!

Ok so about the tree. It is still naked, but very pretty. As soon as these damn tests are done I'll decorate it. So as soon as it is decorated with a few gifts under it (which I need to go buy), I'll get another picture up.

christmas tree set-up--phase 1

Ok so last night my mom came over and helped bring my tree in from my porch and it's a beautiful tree. Thanks to Joe and Max who picked out the tree. I haven't forgotten to pay you back Joe, just gotta wait till pay day again. Ok so here's the naked tree in all it's glory. I'm hoping to decorate either tonight or tomorrow, just depends on how late I get home from class tonight. I'll update again with a dressed tree picture soon.

Thursday cancellation

Ok so last night ended up not working out. I was feeling yucky and decided to stay home and clean and go to bed early. Oh yeah I read. I'm on the last book of the city of ember series and I cant wait to see what happens in the end. I bet Helga can't wait for me to finish either because then I guess it's on to Twilight.

Thursday taco's

Yeah so it's Thursday night and I'm finally getting a chance to go out to happy hour with a friend. It's been a while since I've been out to happy hour, but now is the chance. So with only 1 week left till finals I'm trying my best to stay calm and study as hard as possible. In addition to studying for finals, I also have to do crafts for my nieces and nephew's x-mas presents, but I'm also trying to finish the City of Ember series. I'm really enjoying it and have decided to get the book series as a gift for my niece. I think she'd really like it so I made the decision. Ok well I better get back to cleaning and TV since I can't have a girls knitting night on Sat night without a clean house!

Shopping day!

Ok so here I am at work again, writing on here, cause I'm bored. So I got up this morning and went to stand in line at circut city for 2.99 and 3.99 movies only to be disappointed by the selection. It seems to me that the ads indulge a small bit on what the selection actually will be, so after choosing several movies I joined a line at one of the checkout's only to be told that they were trying to merge the 3 lines into 1 large line. Everyone was yelling and saying they wouldn't let others "merge" in front of them. It was nuts. The whole line thing really should be something the store planned out ahead of time. Then it was off to Target to quickly get my friends camera while I waited for her and her husband to show I also grabbed double of all the good movies and when they showed up we just walked around paid and left. It was off to the craft store which was really where I picked up the largest amount of loot for the cheapest. I guess that's what happens when I decided to make something each year for my neices and nephews. Then the Bed Bath and Beyond to get my dehydrator!! YEAH!! Then it was off to the bookstore. I'm actually surprised that we didn't spend more time there. I was prepared to be there for a while, but I guess that was a good thing because the more time I would have spent there the more books I would have bought so I guess us not hanging out there was a good thing. Then last but not least on to the family christian store, where I bought the movie Amazing Grace & The List. Then it was home to bed for a few hours then some cleaning and now I'm at work. Ok so this was a long post, but I guess since I'm new at this some will be short some will be long!

Pies are baking (update)

So I'm just learning the in's and out's of this thing and have finally figured out how to post a picture of the pies that I baked yesterday. I took them to my parents, got a picture of them, and we dove in. Boy were they good, if I must say so myself. So I guess I'll see if this works!

Thanksgiving work!

Ok so here I am sitting at work, blogging! My friend would be proud of me. Ok so it's Thanksgiving day, and I'm sitting in front of a computer screen watching my employee's transporting people to and from places. Don't know what else to say, except I'm very excited about early morning shopping tomorrow. I'll be one of the crazies standing in line outside of a store before dawn with a thermos of something warm. So Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating today, and hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

Pies are baking

Ok so the pecan pies are baking and again I'm watching more christmas movies. Feeling a little better, but still sick. I have to work today, yuck, but I guess I don't have a choice if I'm going to pay bills next month and go shopping on the friday after Thanksgiving. Yes that's right, I'm one of the nutty people that get in line super early and hope to be one of the first few people in the stores doors, and all just to buy cheap movies. So I guess, Best Buy here I come @ 0415, then over to Target, Micheals, and Borders. Yeah, hopefully christmas presents will be easier to come by this year and cheaper. Ok signing of for now, I might be back later.

I'm really here!

Ok so my friend just "reminded" me that I haven't been blogging so I guess this will be my first one. I'm sitting at home sick trying to make a soft boiled egg to eat and watching christmas shows on TV. Then my one outing for the day will be to the grocery store. Woo-Hoo! I have a really boring life. Oh well. Ok so I'm finally off of school for the week and of course it always happens that I'm sick on my breaks. Well that was a little rambly, but at least I wrote here. So more later!
