Countdown






There are now 5 days until my car is paid off!!!!

Oh yeah, and nothing interesting happened today except I got some house cleaning done!
The following are why I love my car: I have been through 2 wrecks, a concrete barrier on the interstate (didn't cause ANY damage) 2 360's on the interstate (Dead Man's Curve for you Birmingham folks!) and 2 hit garbage cans..again, no damage on those..But I always wanted an Integra (2001) for the year I graduated High School (not really sure why though) and it's the first thing that I have paid for myself..so here are a few pics..I AM the accident waiting to happen!!!

Okay so I tried to get them below..for the experienced ones out there...please help me with the pictures..how can I move them around and not on top?

It's been a while

I had such a busy week that I forgot to blog! The dog is much better after a week's worth of medicine. He goes to the vet for a check up tomorrow. I have had a sinus infection thanks to the pollen in the air and everything in bloom..It's pretty but I always have to go through this! I went with my parents and a small church group to the Pita Stop Friday night..It's in Southside and they have the BEST Greek food ever! I got Chicken Kabobs with salad, fresh fruit and hummus dip with pita bread. Saturday I worked at the Scrapbook store (it was a busy day there) and today went to the Gun Show at the Birmingham Civic Center...There were several people that were questionable and I didn't think they should have been there given the fact that they looked like they could kill...it wasn't just small guns...it was military issues there too. Didn't realize they were so expensive. and then the day was topped of by homemade Monterey Shrimp and pasta..Publix did it this afternoon and we decided to get the recipe and make it ourselves..very good. This week should be better..paycheck Friday, payoff the car next week and go buy clothes for the cruise on Saturday!

I hate Mondays

This was a Monday from you know where for me..We had one of those days at work..EVERYONE wants to know why they owe and insurance didn't pay-um...DEDUCTIBLE maybe? It is the beginning of the year..then the drug rep brought some not so great food..turkey, Chicken salad, and pimento cheese sandwiches that didn't taste good at all, and some chicken and rice soup and vegetable soup that i wouldn't touch...THEN, flash back 2 weeks ago, we had to have a new dryer, ours died and then after we got home and unloaded/set it up, I noticed my dog Harley couldn't see out of his left eye and it was bleeding on the side..turns out he had a cyst that he had scratched that caused the bleeding, they did emergency surgery and he was fine...so to today, I get home after eating dinner with my friend Stephanie, get my shower and go to unload the dry clothes and the dog stubles off our 1 stair on the back porch and turns and looke at me-his eye is swollen shut!..so, I rush him to the vet, Shaun nowhere to get ahold of..he's at work but refuses to answer his phone..the vet wasn't sure if it was the dissolvable stitches (that didn't dissolve) that scratched his eye or if it was something they did or even something in the backyard..but they gave him an antibiotic and eye drops and we go back next Monday and hopefully it will be healed by then. Maybe Tuesday will be better....tanning bed and only work. We'll see!

Weekend Recap

Friday night scrapbooking was fun-I got two pages done. Saturday though was the best-My parents, myself and Shaun went to go see the new Wild Hogs movie with John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, William Macy and Tim Allen-if you like comedy-it's for you! The funniest move I have seen in a long time. Sunday was the usual go to church, buy groceries and this weekend-install a new faucet in the bathroom sink-2 and a half hours later, it was finished...nothing is ever done quickly around here! Finished off by the best dinner-fried chicken, okra and squash! My arteries are loving that. Tomorrow is another week of work and then dinner at Panera Bread with a girl from my old work.

For Ben

I have been keeping track of this 11 year old since he was diagnosed with cancer last May. Please pray for him and his mother as she has also been diagnosed with cancer. Every time they get one step forward, it's two steps backward..If interested, please read about him..he's an inspiration just because he is so young and fighting an adult problem.

Crop this Friday

Clearview Baptist Church in Pinson off of old Springville Road, 6 pm to 11 pm Nothing is required to attend, but we usually bring something for everyone to snack on and there is a Creative Memories Consultant that comes too. My second day of work went well and the drug rep that was supposed to bring us lunch had a sick kid today, so one of the drs. bough us lunch at Zoe's Kitchen instead..I could get used to this!

My New Job

So, I made it through my first day at a new job. I didn't want to leave my old one doing stationery but the hours and pay just weren't cutting it. Not to mention the 45 minute ride to work. I am doing billing at a Dr. office and so far, I like it. The office staff is small but there are nine doctors in the practice. 15 minutes to work, I decide when I come in (as long as I get my 8 hours a day) and the best thing is the drug reps-we get lunch at least once a week and this week is tomorrow! Got a busy week ahead of me-Tanning for my trip Tues and Thursday and Scrapbooking on Friday night and then a free work-less weekend for the both of us!
