did someone say BaBy?

Who's having a baby???
Well my sister-in-law is expecting....
A girl at work is due in a few weeks.....
Some poeple 'look' like their prego but really not...I don't think anyway....
Well you guessed wrong, I'm not with baby, no bun in the oven for me.
So when is a good time to have children??
If it were up to my mom and James' granny, we'd already have them.
My mom keeps saying...'ya know, you should think about kids soon'.
The pressure!! AHHHH!!! :)
With that said...

So I am finally getting over a huge sun burn. I say it like I've had it forever, but when you have a sun burn it seems like forever, especially when you can't sleep and people at work think it's cool to tap, hit, caress, or even just look at my poor burning shoulders...make them poor things hurt...it is now at the itching stage in which I can't wait for that to be OVER!!!!

The news is finally out, Brett is not coming to the Tampa Bay area, which would have been cool. It's just going to be so weird to see him with another team, like he's cheating on them or something, don't ask, but the Pack just isn't going to be the same without him that's for sure. Nicole's right.....'how could he?'

I really wish is was 2010 so I could be up in Wisconsin for homecoming having the time of my life with my friends. I can not wait! I just hope it's not a disappointment when it actually does come about. James and I are going to drive and he hopes by then we'll have an RV to either drive us there to for us to pull behind, if not we'll have to settle for his grandparents for the time being.

Some friends and I 'were' going to walk in the 3 day breast cancer walk up in Tampa and I was very excited about it and couldn't wait for it to come. But it costs $90.00 to register and you have to raise $2,200 before you can even walk, and if you don't raise that amount of money by the time the walk is, you don't get to walk. Well I really thought about giving it a try, until I got to the $90 fee in which I so cannot afford at this time. Then I was thinking how am I going to get 2 thousand dollars raised, with the economy the way it is people don't have the extra money to give out, and I totally understand that, so we're sad to say we 'gave up'. I hate those words because I really don't like giving up without even trying first, but there is always next year. Maybe folks will be more established and can fork out a few Lincolns here and there. :) Best of luck to the people who are strong enough to pull through for this great cause.

School starts on the 18th. I don't think I'll ever be done. I thought I was seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, but then it got dark again. I'm taking 3 classes this time; graphic design basics, mass communications, and photography. Now fortunatly for me I have to buy a new 'good' camera to use for class. Darn I know. I'm sure James is really dissapointed too. He's been wanting to get one for some time now and this is our excuse, for I think is a GREAT one! Don't be jealous Nicole, you'll soon have one someday too, tell Mike that's what you want for x-mas, so he can start saving his pennies now. :)

Well I hope I've updated you all for the time being, I must go check me meatloaf that's bubbling over in the stove. :)

Birthday Buster

So I pretty much had the worst birthday in all of my 25 years of life. Yes, it's true. I woke up happy with the intent of doing something FUN, only to remember we have no money. My husband had to work, my mom had to work and my sister had no car to come see me. I got up took a shower, wished I had some cereal to eat, but settled for a toasted pb&j. I did wake up to my nephew Dylan singing to me 'happy birthday'. That made me smile. Later James comes home from work, wishes me a happy birthday and soon takes a nap. We had thought about going out to eat, but I can't see spending $40-$50 on dinner when you dont have that money to spare. I would rather spend it on scrapbook supplies :) At least I'd get me a nice selection of loot. :) But that didn't happen either. Then Jon comes home and the boys start fighting, I get irritated and go lay down in my bed. ( I cant wait to move out ). Finally we order dinner and have it delivered which costs just about $30 anyway. Then we arguing about this that and the other thing, I start crying, bla, bla, bla and leave to go get myself a birthday ice cream cone. While I'm out and about doing that, my auntie Patti calls and I tell her all about my horriable day. Then to find out that James' family was having a birthday party for his dad and I the next night that I wouldn't even be able to attend because I had to work. James claims he told me, but I think I would remember. The best and only gift I got was a T-shirt from my Nicole and an awesome necklace, and a few 'happy birthdays'. I hate birthdays. Lets see what next year brings....Boo!

catching up..

Soooo I attempted to learn how to swim today....yeah didn't go so well at all. I have to get over that fear of being in the water. This has been my goal every summer, but yet I fail at it each year. Why can't I just jump in like everyone else??? This is all thanks to Ralph Burbank. For I will never be normal again. I can't get over the feeling of water going up my nose and when I do manage to get under the water I panic and open my mouth, and it's all down hill from there. Arg, it's annoying and embarassing.

James starts at Venice Hospital on the 14th, what a great birthday present! haha. I can't wait. We are looking into buying a house here pretty soon. After we pay off some of those never ending credit card bills. That is also very exciting for us.

Cross your fingers...

James goes to take his State Nursing test Monday the 23rd. He will pass! He will find a job! We will make lots of money! :) lol. Cross your fingers and wish him lots of luck!

Thanks!

I hate being short!

Who would have thought it would have been so hard to find a couple pairs of pants to wear to work that have pockets!!? Good Lord! I went to Old Navy, Ross, Marshals, Bealls, Target, Walmart, Bealls Outlet and only found 2 pairs. I would have gotten more but they are all tooo long. Ya know, not everyone in the united states is average height. It gets annoying to go to every store only to find pants that puddle on the floor. Oh yeah, I went to Stein Mart too, only to find nothing in my price range or my style. I think they forgot the 'misses' section. I did enjoy my day out and about even tho I now have to hem one pair of pants, but I just couldn't pass them up! I know you girls know the feeling.

Wednesday is my two husbands birthdays. So with no money, what does a girl get them?? A card is as far as I got, and probably the farthest I'll get. James and I are going to go to Bone Fish Grill for dinner. Never been there before, but I hear it's delish. Any other suggestions I'll take them.

On that note, I'm starving. What's for dinner?

arg.

I can't stand not having any money.
