I had a nice evening but not a good sleep time. Kept waking up. There alot of us at work going thru this. Sucks.
But after work is martini time. Girl friend time.
JJ is in phoenix and probably is there til tomorrow. We talked about the whole situation of moving and staying here. We are okay w/ it all, disappointed, but okay w/ it all. We are hoping he gets a phone call about setting up a time for an interview. Send good thoughts.
Otherwise life is good. Hope all are well!

apraisal
I cant believe it but my appraisal came in at $340,000.00, which is $35,000 cheaper then a year and a half. Okay well scratch the plan of moving. Not going to happen this year. I was very disappointed. I made this decision and boom this changed it all. Oh well. There is a reason why I am not meant to move yet.
JJ is over, going down the street to check his messages, and we decided that if he gets this job and his lease is up in August, he will just move in w/ me and we will just do what ever til next year. I will go about upgrading my house and get it ready for next year. I still cant believe it dropped so much. That just sucked.
Like a girl at work said, there is a reason why this is happening. Everything will line up for the future and then it will be meant to be.
So there you go. I am going back to my 7&7's to toast to my appraisal. Making dinner.

Hump Day
Today is a hump day. Slept good last nite. Work so far so good. Going for a 2 mile walk after work near by to get my work out in and out of the way. I also need to go to home depot for some things to use to stop the pipe from leaking from the dishwasher. Also get some garlic bread for dinner. JJ will be at my house cooking dinner for us. I am so excited about him hanging out w/ me.
Oh he has to go back to the distribution center tomorrow for an interview.
Hopefully today I will hear about my appraisal. Crazy Crazy.
Well about to finish breakfast and go back to work!

Interesting New developments
Well JJ calls me and tells me this guy who he is friends w/ told Budweiser Distribution Center in town about JJ, oh he works as a driver for them, and how he passed his written test and they want to interview him. He is on his way back from Phoenix and I have worked on his resume for him. He is coming over for us to do the final touches and then go over there to talk to them.
There is alot to think about. From what it sounds like, they are willing to train him and help him get his license. What is the pay, benefits, since he has to have insurance on his kiddos. He is worried now about me putting my house up and what happens when it sells will they let him transfer. So many questions.
I called my mom and dad and asked them what they thought and they thought he needs to take advantage of the opportunity that is being offered. My dad was a truck driver and said if they are going to train him and help him get his license then he should take advantage of this. My thinking is dont know how long my house will take to sell for one thing, do I need to put it up in June if this works out, wait another year like originally planned, or if I do sell it, tell them he has to move to Phoenix to be near his kids and can he transfer to another distribution center down there.
I am so excited for him. I think go to the interview and see what comes of it. He has said he needs to change his life and not do the same old thing like he has for the last several years. I think their is a higher power working right now. Its something that is being dropped in his lap. Its so funny how you dont know what the day will bring.
I will keep you updated.

Good Day!
It has been a good day. Very busy but not stressful. I did get a workout in today. I am off tomorrow and so I could go workout in the morning. Then come home and straighten up and defrost some hamburger meat for spaghetti. Yum. I have stuff for salad so that sounds so good for dinner.
I am feeling so at ease right now about my decision. I got such good response from people at work about my decision to move. They all understood and they were so supportive. They know how much fun I have down in Phoenix and how it will be all about family.
I cant wait til the day it actually happens and we move into our new place together and know we are living together again. We will have to celebrate big time. JJ is making some progress in the pictures of Kerri. He put away a pic of her and him instead of putting it some where else. He is slowly moving on. Its just a matter of time.
We are not telling J and B yet. Dont want to right now. She called me tonight and was talking about Tammy. I just listened and gave her advise, not advise but said I dont have time for anyone who is starting shit and lying to me. I didnt ask about her and B, and didnt offer any info about JJ and I. B is taking his own car this weekend which is awesome, so I might have to see him at the game but dont have to interact much. This way JJ and I can go look at more houses and a different neighborhood and go to Lowes so I can exchange some stuff I bought this weekend for the house. And once I am back I can move forward on the house.
Well off to bed. Getting tired!

New decision
I have given this alot of thought and came up w/ pros and cons about this move and I decided I am putting my house on the market this June instead. I dont know why I felt I needed to wait but the more I thought about it I have no reason to stay here another year.
I will still make some money on my house to put down on one in phoenix. There are a bunch of preop/pacu jobs at the hospitals where I am looking at moving to so why wait. I told my boss this morning so she can plan. I dont how long my house will take to sell but oh well no biggie. I am alittle scared but excited. I feel like this is the thing to do.
I am so glad I have been decluttering. Filled up 2 bags of clothes so far to donate. Elly's husband D will come and put all my ceiling fans up for me. I know I can do this and be able to put the house on the market by June.
So there you are!

Fun Fun Fun
Had a great weekend in Phoenix. The drive was brutal. I drove thru a blizzard. My driving skills have improved greatly. But once I got off the hill and got to the sedona exit it turned to rain. So driving went well, but boy were there cars & trucks off to the side of the road and then there were police cars, tow trucks and ambulances thru out the interstate. Crazy Crazy.
I met JJ and the girls and we went to golden coral for dinner. Yummy. Dropped them off and went back to the motel 6. Those places sting of smoke bad. But we had such a nice morning. We just had so much fun being together. Once we finally got up and going, went and had breakfast and then drove to neighborhoods in the west to south west area of phoenix. We did stop at an open house of some models of these homes that they are building. The 1st model to small, the second model we fell in love w/. It was almost 2000 sq feet and they use the space so well. The 3rd model, too much. Too many little areas that if we had a family then that would be one thing but its just us and its wasted space. We fell in love w/ the 2nd model. You walk in and there is a small front room that could be used as the computer room or what ever. Then you walk further in its a dining room, kitchen, and living room, shaped like an L. The room would fit my big table and chairs, the kitchen oh my god, granite counter tops in black, an island w/ the same thing, lots of cabinets and counter space, just absolutely gorgeous. The living room w/ builted in cabinets for the tv and etc. The door going out to the back yard had a patch of grass and a beautiful pool that was long. Not a huge yard but good. A built in grill w/ a nice patio that was covered. I fell in love. The upstairs had 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The master was big and guess what the laundry room right by the master bedroom. What a concept. There was a little space next to the bedroom that the guy said could be added to the master bedroom as a sitting area. It was about $200,000. Very do able. We drove by another home that was $249,000 and it had 2549 sq ft. w/ a pool, gorgeous from the outside. So we decided that that was area we are going to look. Several hospitals near by, close to major shopping, even a hobby lobby and maybe 20 mins from the girls. I am so excited. The area is not in the middle of Phoenix, it has farm land and its near the mountains. I just loved it. Ellen had checked into one of the hospitals near by and the rep that comes up to Flagstaff says that the people are just great and the hospital treats the employees well. I am telling you it is meant to be. It is so exciting to have this to look forward to. I have alittle over a year to get things in order and then move. To start a new life.
I went shopping yesterday and bought the faucets and shower head, towel holders. I went to lowes. It looks like it would all match but looking at the box, one said venetian bronze and the other said tuscany bronze. If the towel rods dont match then I wll take them back next weekend and exchange them for what matches. No biggie. We are going down next weekend for the Angels and cubs spring training game w/ the girls.
JJ was looking at other builders that he has poured for and we are going to look at their houses next weekend. All in the same part of town. So I am so excited to see what they offer for the money. I figure if I have about $30 to $40,000 to put down, that is a good amount of money and I could really find a nice home.
Went shopping for clothes at Lane Bryant and Avenue. Bought me some clothes to wear to the conference but also when ever to. They had all kinds of stuff maked down to $6.99 so I stocked up on underwear, pajamas, tops, a pain of jeans. So today I will go thru my drawers and closets to get rid of more clothes I wont wear. Make room for the new stuff.
On the down side, Jenny calls me and tells me that her & B worked on the guys apartment in fixing up his room, adding an extra tv to the living room so they can watch 2 sports things at the same time. He had a bed delivered. I asked what did they do w/ our pictures that were on top of the tv and file cabinet and what did they do w/ the futon in the bedroom. She said they were still there and the futon is in the livingroom. Jen comments on the pics of JJ and Kerri and she has a problem w/ them. So anyway no biggie I thought. The next thing I know hadnt even spoke to JJ yet and B is calling him to let him know he moved some stuff around but that I was tripping about the pics and the futon. Mine you I dont care for B but that struck me so wrong. It actually pissed me off to say something about me that is not true. So I called Jenny back and told her I didnt appreciate the phone call from B saying anything about me. Mine you I was so happy til then, and then in the back ground, B yells out and the drama is beginning. I said I had to go because I didnt want to say anything I would regret like Fuck you and the horse you rode in. Of all people to say drama when all he does is wine and complain. It just hurt my feelings. I called JJ just to let him know. He asked why did I do that, I said because I am not going to play games and have something said about me that isnt true. He understood. After talking to JJ I am not going to say another word about B to Jen and I am going to back off totally from calling her and avoiding b for the week. He has his interview w/ Gore this week to work 2 to 11pm. He is suppose to go w/ us to phoenix to meet up w/ Jenny at the baseball game after she drops Shanny off. Thats another thing thats interesting. JJ bought tickets for us and the girls to go to the game. I was just mentioning it to Jenny and she said we are to. She came up w/ the idea that maybe he could drive w/ us down there and meet her at the game. We said fine, no biggie. B turns around and says I hear you are going w/ us to the game. JJ said he just looked at B and thought I think its the other way around. He says yea he got 4 tickets and B goes, you could sell those 2 tickets, and JJ says we are taking my girls. B also complains and says how he hates Shanny and being around him. I dont see how this will work out. But anyway its their life and not mine, thank god. I am just going to lay low and not say a word. Once her house is sold and school is over by June they will be out of here. Plus JJ's lease is over in August and so he will most likely move back in here w/ me. I can do anything for several months. Its funny but Dido and Ellen said the same thing about B and they dont like him before this and dont find him stable at all. He is not a family man and he has never made a committment to anyone in his life. Time will tell how it all turns out. Glad I got that out.
I am going to have a wonderful day just being home and watching it snow outside. Its pretty nasty out actually. So it will be nice to just be home w/ the babies and enjoy my home.
Hope all are having a wonderful weekend.

Let it snow
Okay you all know I love snow but it is snowing again. We are all getting tired of it. It is so pretty out. JJ might have to stay in Phoenix tonight to work down there tomorrow. I am going down there if he stays and get away from the snow. Take the girls to dinner and go shopping in the morning prior to coming back up.
Dont know about the appraisal yet but decided whats the worse that could happen, I dont get what I need and dont get the loan w/ the lower interest rate. What ever, have a clean house and it feels good.
JJ passed both written tests towards his class A license. He is on his way to control his future. I am so proud of him and he is to.
B, Jenny's boyfriend, moved in last nite. JJ said he is a winey bitch. lol. I decided that I would never be attracted to him. He is not my type by anymeans. I am still leary of him and luckily dont have to see him for awhile. It will truely take awhile to warm back up to him. He is still complaining about her son. I dont see this working out. But not my life, thank god.
And thank God I am not w/ Terry to celebrate what would have been my anniversary of 28 years. I get to go play in phoenix and be w/ my man. Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Postive day!
Well I did it, Got the house clean. It looks absolutely gorgeous. It has needed a cleaning overhaul for a long time. Amazing how things get so dirty when not attented to. But I got it done, stayed up til almost midnight and then got up this am and finished. I am so proud of myself. Of all the rooms that I am the most pleased with is my bedroom. It is so hard to keep that room clean and this is the 1st time I truely had it cleaned up since I was trying to sell it 2 years ago. Its my oasis now.
The guy came and was very positive. He had me walk thru the house and show him all the things I have done recently from painting to light fixtures to even the thermastat. He did say the market is picking back up and if I could keep doing all these things to improve the house that I was telling him I am going to do then within a year to 2 years I could really make good money on the house. So he said he would have it done by tomorrow. So I cant wait to see what he comes up with.
I am very exhausted right now but know it was truely worth it. It is so peaceful here.
I am going to take a much needed nap now and then Dido is coming over to make plane reservations for our trip to Dallas in May for the nat'l conference in Grapvine. We are staying w/ Val and her husband so we dont have a hotel bill and we are renting a car. We will defiately be doing stuff w/ them and so I am so excited about that.
Well the other news is Jenny's boyfriend, B, is coming back like I told you and is looking at staying here w/ JJ. It will help JJ out financially which is great. I am going to stay out of the whole thing, its between them. I did tell JJ after he straightens up I would help him do some cleaning. So this way its clean when B moves in. I am still leary of B due to how he handled everything but its not my life its Jenny and B's life. She has to live w/ the consequences not me. So anyway if he does move in it will be for the next several months until Shaney finishes out school and then they are off to Ohio. Which would be great as far as the lease would be up in August and if JJ stays here then he would just move back in w/ me. Its amazing how life has a way of taking care of things in alot of ways. I am able to take this time to get my stuff in order also.
I feel very good and am feeling very positive about so many things!

Crazy Crazy
Well the weekend turned out great. It was hard getting up early Sat, I slept like crap and was exhausted. So getting up at 4am sucked. Drove thru ice, darkness, and fog big time. What would have took a little under 2 hours to drive to phoenix took from 5:15am to 8am. But we made it safe and found the place pretty easy. The area that the hotel was in was beautiful! Except we went for warmth and it stayed overcast and cold all day til we were leaving. Going to the physician's conference is different the a nurse's conference. They are totally interested in statistics and numbers and research. The nurse conference is about how to do things, things to expect, research also but in a different way, etc. Didnt get alot out of the conference itself. There was one comment that I found interesting was that this doc who mainly does research was talking about pain control and surgery and there was sentence that made me make a comment out loud was that patients and nurses have this idea that surgery is pain free. I gasp. The reason most patients have that thought because the doctor who is doing there surgery tells them this wont hurt much otherwise nurses tell the patient, you are having surgery it is going to hurt. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Thought you need to rethink this because this comment was wrong.
Anyway at 3 took off and came back up to Flag to get ready for the concert to see Willie. Dido and B went w/ me because an extra ticket became available, Then my director comes up and says I have an extra ticket and so I called JJ and he was 30mins away from there so I bought him a extra ticket and he got to go. He only missed about 15 mins of the concert. The guys were all the way in the back and Dido had 8th row middle seats. It wasnt a big place which was nice. The concert was awesome. He put on a great show. He was so good live. The guy who got me these tickets is friends w/ the drummer from the band and so my tickets were directly from the band. I also got a pic from the superbowl sunday that Willie used when he played at the pre game. Too cool. Whats crazy is all the band except for Willie had the flu, they called Lan, and Lan called one of our docs. He was in telluride skiing and he called in prescriptions for Vit B shots for Lan to give all of them. All in all it turned out to be an awesome concert and so glad that JJ got to go also.
I did stay at his place and it was so nice waking up w/ him. We got up and went out to breakfast and then he picked up a pizza for us for dinner and met back at my place. He pulled my dishwasher out and found the copper pipe where it connected was leaking. So he fixed it and no more leak. Wont take a chance and run it again til after the appraiser gets here tomorrow. He stayed the night and left when I left for work this am.
Work was real slow. There was only 15 people on the schedule so they cancelled several people. So I got off work and went and worked out. Felt good. Sore but good. Was going to be a cleaning fool but instead because I was so tired, came home and took a nap, got something to eat. I did get up and start vacumning again the stuff I couldnt get up w/ the regular vacumn, just used the hose and now I am going to work on the sun room and vacumn the floor in there and put a piece of wood back in place where the doggie door is. Also on to cleaning the bathrooms, my bedroom, and mop the floors. I did get the dusting done in the living room. That was major.
And the craziest thing is I just heard from Jenny and B is coming back to town. Her ex is also going to sign the papers for her to move out of the state. I told her that if this is what makes you happy then fine, but it will take a while before I warm back up to him. Ever since Terry did what he did to me I am so leary of people doing this kind of shit. I just told her you better be cautious. He might be calling JJ about renting a room from him. Thats fine that will help JJ financially so he is not paying everything on his own. Speaking of that JJ talked to his boss today and they are going to leave him here for now and continue to make sure he gets his hours. So I am glad.
So there you go crazy crazy! Well on to get my ass in gear and clean!
Anyway at 3 took off and came back up to Flag to get ready for the concert to see Willie. Dido and B went w/ me because an extra ticket became available, Then my director comes up and says I have an extra ticket and so I called JJ and he was 30mins away from there so I bought him a extra ticket and he got to go. He only missed about 15 mins of the concert. The guys were all the way in the back and Dido had 8th row middle seats. It wasnt a big place which was nice. The concert was awesome. He put on a great show. He was so good live. The guy who got me these tickets is friends w/ the drummer from the band and so my tickets were directly from the band. I also got a pic from the superbowl sunday that Willie used when he played at the pre game. Too cool. Whats crazy is all the band except for Willie had the flu, they called Lan, and Lan called one of our docs. He was in telluride skiing and he called in prescriptions for Vit B shots for Lan to give all of them. All in all it turned out to be an awesome concert and so glad that JJ got to go also.

Happy Anniversary/V Day
Happy Anniversary day to me and JJ. 2 years now. Time has flown. I am finally feeling better. Finally sweat it out this morning and so now I feel back to new. Had to get out of the house so JJ got back from the phoenix area and so we met at Sizzler for a late lunch and thats how we celebrated our anniversary. It was about us to having time together. He did text me this morning wishing me a happy anniversary x3, as if he was singing it to me. I smiled.
It is just snowing snowing snowing. Accumalating big time. It is suppose to snow til tomorrow.
My taxes got accepted and I am so excited to be getting back almost $7,000.00 between fed and state, and because of all the interest on both loans. Woohoo. Putting a good amount in my savings account. Putting some of it towards the house and playing with just a little bit. Going to be smart about it. Plus I guess since I didnt make over $75,000 this year I qualify for the money Bush is giving us. So that is more money towards the house.
My appraisal is Tuesday at 11am. This will give me time to finish cleaning. I did go under my vanity and threw away a little over a trash bag of stuff. Old makeup, lotions, old pics of T and I from South Carolina when it was not a good time in our life. Didnt want to save those pics, Did come across a couple of pics from my trip to the florida keys when I finished nursing school and those I will take out of the frames and put those in my container of pics. That was an awesome trip. The other ones reminded me of the time in South Carolina when he was screwing everything under the sun out there. He worked at the airport and he was screwing woman left and right. It also reminded me of this girl he worked w/ at the airport and how nasty she was to me. He was probably doing her also. So now thats gone. This time has truely been very therapeutic for me of getting rid of the bad stuff in my past. No reminders to take to the future. Can put it to rest. Love it. So now I have to clean.
Jenny put her house on the market on Tuesday evening and there is someone who wants to look at it. Whats sucks about it is that her ex who hardly paid for anything while they were married and doesnt pay child support because she makes more money, had to pay him $90,000 to refinance the house and keep it for her and Shanie, is maybe going to be able to walk away w/ $20,000. Something wrong w/ this picture. Sucks!!! At lease if she can walk away she can breathe easier financially wise and have more money in her pocket. I will feel the same way next year when I sell my house. I can walk away debt free and breathe easier all the way around. Her and I can walk away from all the bad memories that came from the house. Start anew! Woohoo to starting new!
Well off to check laundry. Washing all my linens so I can get rid of the germs!

start of flu
Well dont know if I mentioned yesterday, didnt go back and read, but yesterday I felt like I hit a wall of exhaustion. I felt okay last nite. This morning woke up w/ nausea, hot, cold, headache, diarhea, and aches. I think I have the start of the flu. I hope it will pass after today. I did not have this on my plans of things to do today. So I ate cream of wheat since that would be easy on stomach. I haven't taken any meds. So I was laying on couch watching tivo and relaxing. I just had to get up and move.
Last nite I did get some stuff done. I went thru my jewelry box and I have a pile for the Savers. I did throw away a couple of pics of T and I. I finally decided I didnt need to save every pic of us. I also threw away his ID bracelet. I found in my pile that I was shredding last week, my vows to T when we got married. I kept it and thought what do I do w/ this. This stuff comes up along my journey of cleaning out my house. I shredded it. I kept my marriage license, never know if that will ever be needed but the vows itself, nope, gone. I am truely letting go of stuff I dont need in my life.
Sometime in the near future Jenny wants to have a garage sale and asked if I could help her and I told her, yes. Here's my list of stuff to put in so far:
computer desk
an old desk that I started working on and never finished, it just sits in my sun room collecting stuff and dirt from the doggie door.
The fake ficus trees, someone will want it for their house
some old lamps, got those from an auction
dining room table w/ chairs
2 different tv's
I think this a good start to being able to sell some stuff that will make me money.
The only thing I will turn around and buy is a small table & chairs to eat at.
Maybe I should do this here since I have such big items to sell, easier to do I would think. By then I could go thru the boxes in the garage and sell some of that stuff also. I think this is a great plan. I think maybe in April would be a good idea, a little warmer. We will see, got to talk to Jenny about this.
Well off to lay down again.

Got to get caught up!
With all I have been doing the last couple of weeks, haven't cleaned the house. I feel like I have so much to do. Bought some SOS's for the 1st time since I was a teenager cleaning my parents house but it has done a great job on my stove. How does this happen. Its just me. Its amazing how things accumulate when you dont take care of it during the time. I guess one of these days I will learn but havent yet. Oh well. The appraisal company called about doing an appraisal soon. So I am off next Tuesday and will have everything done and make my house more presentable. JJ and I started fixing the 2 holes that Jr put in the walls. So this way I will have that painted over so it is not seen by the appraiser. With all the decluttering I have been doing has helped big time already for me. Tomorrow I dont have to be at work til noon so I will work some more on the house before I go to work tomorrow. That will be my work out. Yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The rest of my weekend was nice. JJ came over Sunday and we watched this show on the history channel called "life after People" It shows what happens from 1 year to 10,000 years after people are gone. It was incredible how the earth reclamined itself. If you get to catch it watch it. Things you would never have thought of in a million years. But anyway worked on my blanket for D & K in Florida. Then we cooked out over at Jenny's. She was alittle better but still struggling. We had a good time hanging out. The weather was beautiful. It was nice today. Its going to cool off on Wed and Thurs again but not like its been. Its suppose to snow and sleet, we will see. I still have some snow in my yard but big time mud and puddles.
Today was my day off and I had the hardest time getting up for one thing and I just felt like I hit a wall and was exhausted. So I did nothing until I went into town for my massage. The girl mainly worked on my shoulders, my left one more and my neck. She rubbed my feet but mainly where I am having the most problems. She said she can tell the difference in the muscles from my chest to each shoulder and around the shoulder. Wierd. So I guess I will have to break down and go see an ortho doc to have it looked at so I can get it taken care of and move on. Tired of dealing with it.
My friend C in NM is not doing so well. She is so heartbroken. She is so in love w/ this man. And he didnt want it. She was balling when she called me tonight. She just cant stop crying. It took everything in her to get thru work today. I would defiately be this way if JJ and I broke up. I would be so heartbroken. I just told him how happy I was he was in my life this weekend. And he felt the same way. He talk to his boss today and they might be looking at California instead of Phoenix. I will be sad if he moves but at lease I know we still want to be together and will make it work somehow. It makes me so sad for the these 2 woman. I just feel so horrible for them.
Off to make a list of everything I need to get done between now and the appraisal. I can do it!
Hope all are doing well!

Bad news all around
Got bad news all around. Jenny calls me and tells me things are wierd w/ B. Come to find out he quit his job yesterday and lied to her and moved out w/ out leaving a note. Left the keys and the garage door opener. Seem liked it was all planned out. JJ was in total surprize when I told him because he just spoke to him the other nite.
Then my friend Cham's, from Socorro,NM, boyfriend dumped her today. He had a change of heart and didnt want to be a relationship w/ her anymore. Then JJ calls me and tells me he spoke w/ his big boss about getting no hours. He barely got 18 to 20 hours in this week and last week. Cant pay his bills. He told them he would have to leave them if something isnt done. Well I guess there is not much work left up here and so they talked about transferring him to either phoenix or southern Cal. I heard about this 1st and then Jenny and then Cham, I was having a good day. got to meet up W/ Elly and snowshoe and we went down the street from Dido's house and just started out. The sun felt so good. It was so warm to the face. I was acutally okay w/ JJ's news and felt totally at peace w/ this. I am totally confident in our relationship and we will get thru this and start our new life together next year. We already discussed how we would be together no matter where he was sent. Road trips and long weekends. How hard for them to have to deal w/ this. Very heartbreaking.
But anyway I was watching Young and the Restless and the way it ended today just made me cry all of a sudden. All about endings. Wierd. Elly called and checked on me because we were together when all this news happened. I was so glad we got to visit. It helped. I am excited about tomorrow. I am getting over to his house per his request for an early morning quickie, then get on the road by 5:30 to head down to get the girls. I am so excited and happy to know I am going to be w/ my family for the day. It will bring such joy. Well anyways had to tell you guys about this. Crazy Crazy.

Survived
I survived the martini time. Had pomagrante martini's, they shouldnt go down so damn smooth. So buzzed. Went out for a pizza after w/ JJ. It was so fun to laugh our asses off.
Today is Friday, Thank God. I am ready for the week to be over. Did not sleep well. Went to bed at 8:30, woke up at 11:30, back to sleep, and then up at 4, 30 mins prior to my alarm going off. Tired.
Going snow shoeing w/ Ellen today. Got to pay on my loan and then off to the snow for a little while. Going home after.
Told JJ he could spend the night and we get up and head down to phoenix to warm up and see the girls or when I get up I can just pick him up in the morning. The girls have a party at the zoo. The girls mom told JJ that we could go when ever w/ them and they wont charge us, the party is at noon and then they have another party at 2. So it will be short and sweet but at the same time I am excited about seeing the girls and also going to the zoo. Last time was in Anchorage. And the other part is warming up.
So I hope all have some fun plans for the weekend. Have a good one!

Martini time
Today is Martini time after work! I am ready for the relaxation time w/ the girls. Work has been busy and now back to work in fact!
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Great day!!!
I have to say I did everything I said I would today. It was awesome. I started w/ the pile in the kitchen and proceeded to the bedroom and attacked it. It felt so good to shred anything w/ my name, anything w/ Terry's name, threw it away. Took me a couple of hours.
I then proceeded to get a shower, get dressed, go to saver's. I found a blue pair of ski pant for $5.49, total of $6.23 at savers. They worked perfectly. I then went on to meet up w/ Dido at her kids school to pick her up for skiing. She didnt get off to early so we didnt get to the nordic center at about 3. We had only an hour to ski so we paid $10.00 and went on a groomed trail that was a loop from the parking area back to the parking area and what a difference it made. I could slide and glide easier. My feet were cramping at 1st and my legs were so sore, warming everything up. Once warmed up it wasnt so bad. It was so fun. It was so gorgeous out there. There was so much snow. The sun felt so good and the trees blocked the wind big time. Dido had me ski in a trail made by skiiers and it made it so much easier to slide and glide.
Threw out all the bags of shredded paper and magazines, newspapers, etc when I got home and shoveled out my drive way some more to get the trash can to my street. Filed stuff also and started my taxes. It felt so good to get rid of that stuff in my house. Took so much weight off my shoulders. So today was an awesome day of accomplishments. Woohoo for accomplishments and meeting goals.
From working out again at lease 3 times a week and trying not to eat 2 hours prior to bed mainly. Not good on the alcohol thing but trying to do that in moderation. I can tell in my waist how it is toning up. Speaking of alcohol, the girls are meeting downtown tomorrow afternoon at our new martini bar/bakery for martini's. Have some good laughs and girl talk. And then on Friday Ellen and I are going snow shoeing on Friday. Tomorrow will be my rest day. My shoulder is not hurting as much since I have let it rest for the last several days from Jazz. The last timed I jazzed was Sat am. It hurt all weekend, like a major ache in my butt. So, so far so good.
Well off to get ready for bed. Tired and should sleep well. Good nite

Where do I start?
I cant believe its been a week since I last posted anything. Its just been so busy w/ mostly fun stuff and other things. Where do I start?
Got my dishwasher from best buy, we picked it up and brought it home and installed it ourselves after we took it out and decided we could do this. Important note, dishwashers do not come w/ a plug. I asked if they did, the guy said I think so, he didnt really no. So We take the dishwasher home and find out it doesnt come w/ plug or hoses. So luckily since we still had the other dishwasher still we took the copper pipe and plug off the other one plus the mesh hose and put it on the new one. It worked. Its not the quietest one around and the most expensive by any means but it does the job and it looks nice. So not only did I save money on the kit which was $29.00 plus tax but I also saved money on the delivery and hauling off of the other one, $49.99 plus tax. That money can go to a new ceiling fan. So got one thing crossed off my list of things to do.
Last Thursday nite JJ came over and how our evening started is w/ him wanting to see if he could disconnect the dishwasher and so from there we played music, I drank martini's and he drank his ole favorite bud lite, and we proceeded to dance in the kitchen all evening, made dinner, and ate, and then danced somemore and have awesome sex thru out the evening. It was so fun. Just what we needed.
We were both off from work all weekend so just enjoyed the weekend. We stayed home at my place Friday and watched movies and ate dinner.
Sat we got up and went for our pedicures that I bought last year as a gift for our anniversary after I worked out that am.
We went to buffalo wild wings for the ultimate fighting matches and just enjoyed the evening. It had already started snowing and had stopped for a short time so we proceeded to go back to his place for the night and crashed. Well I woke up to a wierd noise and went and looked out his door to our vehicles and my vehicle has slide down the hill into the back of his truck. no damage but it was snowing hard and it had been snowing hard. We finally got up and went out to breakfast at a new place we both liked on route 66. It had apparently been there for ever. Bought some food for dinner and the superbowl.
What a great game. I was for either team but I was so happy that it was such a great game and the giants won. I was for the commercials and thank god it was a good game because there werent that many good commercials. Most sucked. I cant believe they spent that much money and they sucked. Crazy.
It continued to snow til Monday at noon. In some places they got several feet, me, maybe 6 inches. It was amazing to see so much snow. Most of the snow hasnt melted and so it was storm on top of snow. Its been so cold it hasnt melted. Suppose to warm up as the week proceeds so maybe some it will, except now worried about flooding. There some places where the snow has been plowed that it stands 6 to 10 feet. No where to put it. Dido's husband had a great idea, why not haul it and put it out on Lake mary road where the lakes are so it can melt into the lake.
Yesterday on a wim Dido and I rented cross country skiis and went cross country skiing down the street from her house. I only fell twice and bell her dog came up to me and banged his nose and face into mine and broke my glasses. Was able to glue it back and they are still usable. I have another pair and I know I need to go have my eyes checked anyway and get new glasses. No biggie. Needless to say I am was so fricken sore last nite. It workes your whole body out. The skiis are so much skinnier then regular skiis. I want a little wider.
Today I am off from work and Dido is working but there were only 17 pts schedule so she was putting her name on the home early list and we are going to meet up and go out the to nordic center to go where the trails are groomed for this. You can also snowshoe there. What would be cool to do is go out there at midnight w/ friends and snowshoe in the moonlight. Lots of people do this and cross country ski at night. They say its kind of earie but they love it. I have always wanted try it if I could stay up that late or I guess take a nap prior.
So even though I woke up at 5:30 I was able to fall back to sleep til 8:30. I feel pretty good. Sore still but not bad. I am going to work on my next project until she calls of getting rid of papers. Shred, throw away, or put away. I have been enjoying my coffee. JJ called and he was so down. He absolutely hates this weather because of his job. I am trying to be supportive and like I tell him then change it. Get your fuckin license or move if you need to. Do something since you are so fuckin miserable. Can you tell I am getting tired of this. Yes I am. Nothing I can do, it has to be up to him. So I will not call him til he calls me when he is done w/ his day.
It is very cold right now, yesterday on my way to work it was -5 degrees. We are all tired of the cold. We want it to warm up alittle. Whoever at the farmers almanac said it was going to be a mild winter had no fucking idea what they were talking about. It has not been mild by anymeans. Its been the total opposite. From Cali to New Mexico and the states north of here have been so wet this winter. On the mountain there is almost 100 inches of snow to ski and snowboard. Just amazing. Crazy Crazy.
Well off to paperwork! Hope all are well!
Got my dishwasher from best buy, we picked it up and brought it home and installed it ourselves after we took it out and decided we could do this. Important note, dishwashers do not come w/ a plug. I asked if they did, the guy said I think so, he didnt really no. So We take the dishwasher home and find out it doesnt come w/ plug or hoses. So luckily since we still had the other dishwasher still we took the copper pipe and plug off the other one plus the mesh hose and put it on the new one. It worked. Its not the quietest one around and the most expensive by any means but it does the job and it looks nice. So not only did I save money on the kit which was $29.00 plus tax but I also saved money on the delivery and hauling off of the other one, $49.99 plus tax. That money can go to a new ceiling fan. So got one thing crossed off my list of things to do.
Last Thursday nite JJ came over and how our evening started is w/ him wanting to see if he could disconnect the dishwasher and so from there we played music, I drank martini's and he drank his ole favorite bud lite, and we proceeded to dance in the kitchen all evening, made dinner, and ate, and then danced somemore and have awesome sex thru out the evening. It was so fun. Just what we needed.
We were both off from work all weekend so just enjoyed the weekend. We stayed home at my place Friday and watched movies and ate dinner.
Sat we got up and went for our pedicures that I bought last year as a gift for our anniversary after I worked out that am.
We went to buffalo wild wings for the ultimate fighting matches and just enjoyed the evening. It had already started snowing and had stopped for a short time so we proceeded to go back to his place for the night and crashed. Well I woke up to a wierd noise and went and looked out his door to our vehicles and my vehicle has slide down the hill into the back of his truck. no damage but it was snowing hard and it had been snowing hard. We finally got up and went out to breakfast at a new place we both liked on route 66. It had apparently been there for ever. Bought some food for dinner and the superbowl.
What a great game. I was for either team but I was so happy that it was such a great game and the giants won. I was for the commercials and thank god it was a good game because there werent that many good commercials. Most sucked. I cant believe they spent that much money and they sucked. Crazy.
