The Search Is On….

Posted on Monday May 23rd, 2005 by | Comments Off on The Search Is On….

Harold started our search for a new place to live. I’m so not looking forward to this whole process….the looking, that scams on the application fees….it is crazy. At lest in Indiana you can start your looking months in advance, can’t do that here. Has to be 2-4 weeks before you need a place & that stresses us out big time. We like to have ourselves situtated ASAP so we know what is going on & how to prepare. Doesn’t help that we HATE moving.

We did look at a very nice duplex it has 3 bedrooms, screened in porch and kind of a courtyard area at the front door. It is really nice & roomy, even enough room to have my dinning room table up in the kitchen. But we shouldn’t even count on it until we get through the process. I just hope we find something soon so we don’t have to stress it.

On a political note: Cheney’s Betrayal
**I love the fact that ones who are suppose to protect the Constitution and the checks & balances put forth by our founding fathers are destroying the basic elements of our country. That is sad. =(

Hot & Humid

Posted on Sunday May 22nd, 2005 by | Comments Off on Hot & Humid

It is humid as heck. But we are so tired of the air condition we shut it off for the day & opened all the windows. But I don’t think it is going to last much longer…………..nope didn’t last. Too sticky & I never want to do anything when I’m sticky, even if it is just emails & writing.

I started my letters to my family members, it has been a long while. I’ve sent cards to let them know that I’ve been thinking of them, but no real letters. Looks like they will be about 15 pages long on average………lol I just need to finish them up.

I did get laundry & emails done, even made spaghetti for lunch. And we watched Garfield the movie……lol I know it got panned & the him dancing was bad, but I did enjoy it. I am silly that way………grin Then rewatched Shrek 2, my favorite part is when they are trying to get into the castle with Mongo the large gingerbread man…..I think it is the music. I’ve always loved that song since I heard when I was about 10. I need to get the sound track to that movie……..grin

Now that it is cooling down, I think I’m going to enter a few receipts & balance my check book.

A Relaxing Day

Posted on Sunday May 22nd, 2005 by | Comments Off on A Relaxing Day

I have the weekend off. So when I got off from work yesterday I went to get my nails done. They were about 6 days over do………..and it was showing. Last time I got them done, I did one of my purples. When I got home, Harold was like “you always get purples, blues & reds”……then I’m like “what would like……..green?” I never thought he would ever like that, so I never gave it much thought. It took me time, but I did find a green……neon green & a neon yellow……….I really wanted a kelly green, but neon will do………….grin

So now I have both neon yellow & green on my nails……….lol Wild…

We did watch the Preakness………….did you see that AFleet Alec almost went done?!? My heart jumped! Luckily, he regained his footing & no one was hurt, in fact he went on and won the race. =)

I then hope that I actually get some packing & letter writing done.

A Class Act

They didn’t win to go on to the finals, but Reggie Miller still went out on top.

I was crying like crazy during the last few seconds, especially when the coaches took thier last time outs just for Reggie to get the ovation he so rightly deserves. I can’t type anymore about…..already starting to tear up.

Reggie Miller 31 and Only

Catch Up

Posted on Monday May 16th, 2005 by | Comments Off on Catch Up

We had a great time at with the mini runaway. We went out to dinner & just talked and having our quality time that we really needed. It was a great day & evening that we had together. Luckily we have another one coming up with our anniversary around the corner.

Since my last day off, I’ve been working a ton of hours this weekend. Poor Harold, he has been wanting me to make oatmeal cookies…..took me almost a week to get the time. But they are done. =)

I need to figure out my phone. For some reason when my mom calls me it doesn’t ring & goes to voicemail. I thought it was cuz she was under private, so I asked her to program *82 in front of my # so it would show up & may be it would ring. Didn’t work…..I don’t get it.

When I talked to her she was saying that when our oldest niece throws her fits she goes on about why don’t we live close and when can she visit us….starts talking about how she misses her uncle. Which I find very interesting. She is very quiet around Harold, yet he has had such an effect on her. Mom thinks it is cuz outside of grandpa, he is her only real family male role model & that he has taken time to teach her to tie her shoes & stuff like that.

We got all my china and most of my knick-knacks from my china cabinet packed. We are playing catch up on all our shows. I need catch up on emails & comments.
