Weekend

Started my weekend. I got all my bills paid. Still need to go pay my car insurance, which has not gone up as of yet and hopefully it wont. I have been with them many years.
I am ready to get back down to Phoenix to hang out and warm up. I have been cold since I have been back. Its cold up here. With all the rain Everything is so green. Love it. I will need to mow on Wed on my day off. Everything getting over grown.
Today is my honey's birthday. Today is also the hearing for the kid Hamilton who shot jr. JJ is still deciding about what he is going to do. Depends on work.
I want him to have a good day. I am also going to take him out to dinner, his choice. Maybe he will want to go to our favorite place. We will see. Some beer and wings sound good!
Well off to get ready for the day. I already started packing. I have to go weigh in for the 3rd week of the biggest loser. I have come in 3rd place the last 2 weeks. I just dont feel the love this week and you know its okay because I will get back on track. My team hopefully will do well. I have lost almost 14lbs in 2 weeks. I doubt if it will still be the case today. Oh well, life goes on.
Hope everyone has a great day!

California

Went to California over the memorial day holiday. I love LA. What I love is the town of San Dimas and Newport Beach. Absolutely love them. The beach was awesome. The ocean waves were huge!
Got there early Sat and we ended up having a barbeque with his family so I got a birthday cake for JJ and and balloon so he could celebrate with his family. He was touched when we surprised him. He was very appreciative.
Sunday we got up early and went to Newport beach with the girls, their cousins, and his sister in law. Fun had by all.
Got back home Tuesday morning, worked Tuesday and Wed and now I am off for 4 days to go down to phoenix to celebrate with him alone. I bought him some Laker's stuff so he got his gifts early but I am still going to get him a card and give him something personal. Oh yeah, smiling thinking about it. lol.
This weekend will be all about relaxing. Hopefully the pool will be open and clean.
I have in fact paced a couple of boxes tonight from stuff in my bedroom. I feel like I got something done this week. Once I get back ON monday morning I wont go back for almost 3 weeks. I am on call next weekend, off the following and want to stay here to work on things, and then back down to phoenix the following weekend for a going away party for a friend down there. Should be alot of fun.
OMG I had a frickin nightmare this morning. I woke up at 4 and realize I dont have to get up til 6am and so fell back to sleep. I dreamed that I was at some courthouse somewhere and a couple different friends were getting married their and I had a gown on with pearls all over it and I was remarring my EX. It didnt go thru and he told me he had to talk to some guy and I couldnt find him so I walked out and there he was walking down the street with a chick. I called him on it and threw every f bomb there was out there. Then was walking to the bar. I woke up and went what the Fuck. Where did that come from. A girl at work said did you want to throw up. She said dont even go there or figure it out. I agreed. Freaked me out to wonder why I would dream that. Crazy Crazy!
Well hope all have a great weekend.

Back to work

Okay I am about to get out of here to go back to work. Yuck. I just had 3 days off and it was still hard getting out of my bed. The weather is cloudy and cool and my bed and pillows kept telling me no.
I am dressed to go work out after work. Even if its just the eliptical for 20 minutes and my abds using the ball. I am so determined to keep going so I feel better and hopefully my back does to. It was killing me last nite.
Hope all have a great day!!!

I did it!

I went and worked out. Felt like I had a good workout but after I went on my activity tracker on weight watchers, it only showed up as 6 points. I guess I will have to step it up. Did the elipitical total body workout. Great workout. Treadmill, walked, the ball and free weights and then the water. Oh yeah that is what I am talking about. It felt so good. Jacuzzi and lazy river. from hot to cool. it felt so good. Just love this place.
Made me a very healthy dinner. Lots of vegies, grilled chicken strips, and brown rice. I also bought me a weight watchers ice cream cone, mint chocalate chip. Yummy!
Had a couple of beers and still have points left over. Oh yeah. Doing good. Into the 2nd week. I hope I show a couple of lbs weight lost this friday.
I am also counting down the days til I see my honey and the girls. I am so ready to see them. We will have a very nice weekend!

Enjoying my coffee

I took forever to wake up. I couldnt get out of bed til 8:30 which was absolutely wonderful. I watched tv and just enjoyed the cool morning. Finally knew I need to get moving. So now after 2 cups of coffee I am about ready to get dressed and go to the aquaplex to work out and get in the water. I am ready.
I know I was going to water and weed b gon and if doesnt rain by the time I get home then I will weed b gon at lease since rain is coming our way today or tomorrow. Clouds are building.
I am excited about this weekend. Get to see my honey and his girls. We got invited to go on Dido and dick's boat Sunday. And have a picnic. Should be fun and get out on the water. Now mind you Lake mary is this long small lake but it is water and sun and fun and its memorial day weekend so it should be fun! Drink a few beers and enjoy being out. Cheap entertainment.
Well off to eat something and get to the gym!

They won!!!!

I went to the softball game for my coworkers and cheered them on. It was so fun. I wasnt the only one in the stands cheering. My coworkers won, 16-12, Still Recovering Pacu. Sounds like a bunch of recovering alcoholics you might think, but not at all. Most of them are recovery room nurses, but now there are newer people who are crna's, xray, lab. Fun time had by all!
I am so excited to have tomorrow off. I enjoyed my day of doing nothing to the fullest. I needed a down day to just recoup. Regain my energy. Dido invited me over for dinner but I passed. I didnt want to be around any more people tonight. I went thru the drive thru at Carl's jr and got a charbroiled chicken salad. I was so good except I got a coke. 2 nights in a row I wanted a coke. I hardly ever drink coke's. Mainly water but I was in the mood so I went with it.
I am going to go to bed and get a good nite's sleep. When I get up I am working on watering and weed b gone. Then off to the aquaplex to work out and get in the water. I also need to take the clothes I am donating to Saver's. They are already in the back of my car. It will feel good to get back on track. Ready.
I also decided this week I am going to work on packing up stuff in my bedroom so when JJ and the girls come up this weekend they can help me move the furniture around. Making progress!!!! Woohoo!
I am so proud of myself. I just have to keep telling myself it will all be worth it in the end. All of this hard work will be worth it!!

Sunday Morning!

Finally Sunday is here and this crazy busy week is over. I can finally enjoy my coffee with the weekend creamer. I was in bed at 8:30 last nite. I took an ambien and crashed. Forgot to turn off my alarm at 4:45am and couldnt believe when it went off. Turned it off and went back to sleep til 6:30 and I feel rested. OMG I got my Creed tickets. I am on the floor. It was expensive but I dont care I am seeing creed. OMG I am so excited to say the lease. I just love them and Scott STapp. He will be my lover in my next life. lol. I love love love him. Sept 29Th in Glendale.

The garage sale for the most part was a success. After I get the other $50.00 on my tv from chriso and deliver my bike to my friend Sher in Phoenix and collect my $20.00 I will have made about $450.00. Not to shabby. Got rid of all the furniture, stereo, extra tv's, and vcr and a few small things. I have a few small things left and giving those to a guy at work for the boyscouts garage sale. I am taking clothes over to savers. They are already packed in my car to donate and get them out.
I will tell you I only did my garage sale til noonish but it kicked my ass. I got up at 4:45am, really 5, after hitting the snooze several times. I was set up and had my sign out by 6:30am. I met my creepy neighbors. They came over and bought stuff. The wife introduces herself to me as Reverend Elizabeth. Praise the Lord. She said that constantly. That makes me question how much of a religious person she is. Mind you I believe in God and I feel like I do God's work every day at work and I try to be a good person and I say prayers but someone who constantly says it and talks about it makes me think it is a bunch of bullshit. I remember a assistant pastor at the church I use to go to in Lubbock told me one time and it was a good point, church is for sinners. So anyway I shy away from people like that. All in all things were good and I was so happy it was over.

After I was sitting there in my living room enjoying a well deserve beer. I was craving a burger. I ate already but I just wanted fattening fattening. So off to Wendy's I went and got a double cheeseburger, fries, and a frosty. I didnt finish the frosty. But the rest was delisc and was so full after wards. Thank god for the extra 35 points a week on weightwatchers because I probably ate them all in one sitting. Oh well now I can back to being good.
I now have the next 2 days off to recoup and work some outside. I need to weed be gone, water and fertilize everything. I am also going to the aquaplex to get in the water, lazy river and jacuzzi for much needed R&R. This afternoon my coworkers are playing in a softball game. I am the cheerleader on the side. Dont do team sports but I will cheer you on. So it will be a nice distraction from the house. I will be back to working out tomorrow am.
And I am excited that next weekend my honey and his 2 girls are coming to spend the weekend. I miss them so much. Both girls have braces now. So I will have to see what they can eat. I want us to cook out on the grill. Need to get my propane tank refilled.
Well hope everyone is having a great weekend.

OMG

OMG getting ready for this garage sale is a bitch and so much work. Doing this all myself is so hard but I will get it done and know that noonish I will be done. Woohoo. Money in my pocket and almost all of this stuff gone.
I went and bought the signs to put out but my neighbors who are wierd have a garage sale every weekend, Friday and Sat. People donate to their supposite church and they sell it. hmmmmmmmmm. sounds shady to me which they are. So now I can take that stuff back and just put the sign at the end of the drive way pointing into my drive way.
I am getting up at 5am, drink my coffee and eat my total, energy baby energy. Open the garage door, Put the stuff out and then put my sign out there at around 6:30 to 7am. I put price tags on the big stuff. I have stuff I could make money on. Nice stuff. I was very surprized as I loaded stuff out there. So this should be a success. Took stuff out that I am keeping and put it in the house and straighten out the garage. That helped alot in making room. I went my hall closet and took out all kinds of stuff.
I will say that I truely going thru 30 years or so of stuff. Just blows my mind. My good neighbor came over to help me get my christmas tree off of my shelf in the garage and we were talking and I just started tearing up because I am truely moving on and am really starting my life over. Wow. Incredible. It will feel so good to have all this stuff gone and not to think of it again. It will be a huge relief.
So all I have to do is get thru this and then once my garage door goes down. Taking a shower, heading to town to go to the aquaplex to get in the water. Jacuzzi and lazy river. That will do the trick, go get some dinner somewhere and then go to the corner bar and have some beers after. I am off Sunday and Monday so I get to sleep in and work on the yard and take a break from the inside of the house. That will feel good to be outside and to enjoy.
Well we started the biggest loser at work and I also went back on weight watchers on line last weekend. I lost 11 lbs. Mostly water but 11 lbs. I probably will only lose 1 or 2 by next friday but thats okay. No biggie. I truely feel like I am taking control of my life and moving on. Woohoo!!!
Well off to do a few more things and then time to eat and relax. Get a good nite's sleep and get ready for the morning! I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Got a minute

Its already Thursday. I cant believe this week has just flown by.
Today is Prom Bungo. Everybody has their prom dress. It should be fun. I need to go by my lease favorite store Walmart to pick up stuff for the party and also garage sale signs and stickers. Sat is the big garage sale day. Woohoo. It will feel so good to get it done and have it behind me and then I can relax alittle this weekend. So wish me luck. Hopefully I get rid of all of the stuff or almost all so I dont have to take much to savers.
Well hope everyone is doing okay!

getting things done

Getting Things Done, feels good. I got a good night's sleep. Slept in kinda. 1st thing got a massage this am. Felt great.
Had a plan for today:
1) Massage
2) Insurance company, let them copy my certificate from driving school. Done with that whole thing.
3)Bank
4) Ace Homeco - rat poising to kill the damn prairie dogs.
5) Dido came over and faux finish the wood trim. I painted the ceiling.That room looks so much better. It just flows so nicely. The curtains between the dining room and the sun room look very nice there. There have yellowish, orange, brown colors and it just goes so well with everything. The walls being tan really helps. Very neutral.
6) Got the dresser out of the closet. My massage therapist coming to look at Friday, prior to the garage sale so if she doesnt want it then I can put it in the garage sale Sat am.
7) Having a moving sale Sat am. Put the ad in the paper on line. Now I have to have the garage sale. No choice. Sat 7:30 to noon. Everything must go. Getting all this stuff out of my house will really help me look at where I am at with things. I am so excited. Make some money. And whatever doesnt sell then off to Savers. Chriso at work buying my big tv by next Friday. Dont have to lift. Make some money and dont have to worry about getting it out of my bedroom. In fact I am not putting another tv in there and get rid of the 2nd direct tv line. Spas like. lol.
8)Prom Bunco on Thrusday nite. I need to shop tomorrow or maybe Thursday for the party. I am hosting. I have several hours prior to it starting to worry about that. Craziness Craziness.
9) So here shortly after my left hip and lower lt back calm down then I will be grabbing a box and putting clothes in that I will get rid of. I decided I can finally get rid of alot of winter stuff. Maybe keep 1 sweater or 2 maybe and some long sleeves for sure. Winter in Phoenix less wintery and freezing then Flagstaff.
I am so excited about this. Less to pack and move.
10) We started the biggest loser contest at work. So every Friday we weigh in. I also went to doing weight watchers on line. Paying again to be accountable. Cant ever just be able to do it on my own. Oh Well. So tomorrow I am going to work and then go workout. Maybe do the jacuzzi. Come home after and get stuff worked on for the moving sale.
Moving right along!

Home

I am home, and now ready to head to work. A little tired. My frickin period started a week early. This wasnt the best weekend for me and now I know why. I miss my honey already. Sucked getting up and leaving. Oh well, keep telling my self its temporary! Today will seem like a long day. Especially this afternoon when I am at work til 7:30 tonight but was it worth it not leaving til the morning hell yeah, even though my honey left at 2am for work to drive back to Farmington, NM again. He is just not looking forward to the flight home since it sucked so bad coming back. Poor baby. I hope it goes smoother for him!

Saturday, May 9, 2009

Almost there.

Got thru call and did work for a couple of hours. Extra cash. In bed by 2 and crashed. Now finishing my cereal so I can go get driving school out of the way and then on to what I want to do. My baby drove thru here at 4:15am and on his way to Farmington,NM. He is on a mission so we can be together this afternoon. OMG I am so excited and that is what will get me thru boring driving school!!!!
I am eating my total cereal to give me some energy. It was hard waking up. I am getting there. To get thru the afternoon and evening I will defiately take my vitamins before I leave. I think tonight will be take out. We will both be so tired!
Anyway hope everyone has a great weekend and Happy Mom's day!

Friday Woohoo

I am so glad its Friday. Well I have to say the paper yesterday had a huge picture of this kid Neuman and the article on his plea bargain. Everyone at work would read it and then just look at me and I tell them Yup I was there and told them about the other family. Those people still blow me away!
I am exhaused big time. I am so tired I cant even tell you. I dont feel 100% yet, maybe due to being sick, working all week, the stress of going to court and the toll it takes on your body and mind. I am on call tonight til 3am, traffic school at 7:30am, and then come home, get ready and head to Phoenix to see my honey. We thought we werent going to see each other or have a little rendevous in flag if he was passing thru and we could time it because he was heading to Denver. Well now he is leaving at 2am and driving to Farmington, NM and will fly back at 3:00 and so probably get back at to Phoenix at 4 or maybe 3pm. Anyway I am so excited because we are going to have time together. We are both excited.
We miss each other.
I am also excited sold my tv in my room that I have kind of stressed over due to the fact it is so big and heavy. A guy at work bought it for $100. He will come over with someone and move it. Woohoo. That made me so happy. Slowly but surely I am on my way.
Work has been busy except for today. It was kind of slow, alittle crazy, but slow. Did paperwork for alittle bit and was out of there by noon. It is in the 70's and beautiful out.
I am doing a load of laundry and cleaning up the kitchen. My neighbor will take care of the pups for me on Sunday. So I will come back on Monday morning. Get back alittle early to come check on them and then off to work. Off on Tuesday and have a massage at 9:30am. OMG that will feel so good!
Well off to get stuff done. Going to bed early in case I get called in. Wish me luck!

Court sucked!

Today was the hearing for the neuman kid. I was there and it was just so surreal and absolutely unbelievable. I was very sad when I walked away. I am utterly discussed with his family and the people who were there to support him. They were all laughing like this was a celebration. I dont understand the disrespect there was. It was absolutely aweful and just fucking sucked. Its in the paper. azdailysun.com. I am just very sad and about to go to bed in a few. I have no strength.

Happy Cinco De mayo

Wierd to think we celebrate this, its a mexican holiday but to me its all about drinking. Well I did that with dido. Had a great time. Home now and just received a gift from my friend Jenny and Shaney. A couple of Dallas Cowboy things and a pic that he drew and a pic of him. It just touched my heart and almost brought tears to my eyes. I miss them.
Good day. Off to bed!

A new Week!!!!

I can say I feel good for the 1st time in a week. Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never got called in and only woke once last nite after falling asleep.
I did get almost all my pics off the walls in the house. Today I plan on working out this am, somethimg lite not to major. Want to get back into it slowly. Then go by the grocery store for a couple of things. Then come home and take all the boxes packed to the storage unit, will take several trips but at lease I can empty it out.
I am thinking about having a garage sale in a couple of weeks to sell this stuff I want out of the house, such as tv's, several, this huge picture that my mom gave me when I moved in here but its a western theme and I dont have any use for it. some bedroom furniture such as dresser and end tables. My christmas tree and lights. This way I can make some cash. I have to look at my schedule. I need to call the girls mom to see when she is doing hers in phoenix because maybe I can bring some stuff there in stead, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I shall have to see. She had told me that she was doing that soon and said I could put some stuff in her sale. That might be an awesome idea instead. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Have to think about that.
Anyway, I am going to work on the guess bedroom today by getting rid of papers on the floor that needs to be shredded and then on to the book case to pack up cd's to take to JJ's and leave at his place this weekend.
I am just excited to feel better.

exhausted

Well I ended up working. I got called in at around 5 and worked til almost 12:30am. It took me awhile to get to sleep due to coughing a bunch. Woke up at 5 from a terrible nightmare that someone hurt my dog Tipper. Took alittle while to get back to sleep and woke up around 7:45. I am so frickin exhausted. This defiately kicked my ass especially after being so sick. I am on back up so I wont work like that again unless there is mass Kaos. I hope not on that one.
I got to work yesterday and was looking at the board to see where I was working, preop or recovery and I wasnt on the board. I didnt realize I was off. I am torn. I need to get caught up on some paperwork at work. I could go in for alittle while and get paid inservice time which would give me some extra hours in case we are slow and get sent home which is likely. So maybe I will get up and go work out, a light workout and go in to do some inservice time. Just a couple of hours. Undecided. Need to work on my house, maybe I can do all 3. We shall see how I feel. I need to push myself but dont want to relapse.
I watched that movie the Notebook. I just love that movie. Fall in love with the main characters. The guy in it is so dreamy and want to get lost in his eyes. I cry everytime. I want love like that. Crazy Crazy heart felt love. Cant get enough of each other love. I feel like there is real heart felt love in my relationship with JJ. It made me miss him so much and cant wait for my future with him. I am so frickin ready. Its the inbetween stuff that is so hard right now. Sometimes it feels like I am never going to get there. One step forward and One step back. Its such a constant because of my house. Its such a hinderance right now to me. Its standing in the way of my future. I am just not thinking very positive right now. I guess because I am so tire today. I just feel down right now and overwhelmed. I will get it back together but it will take time. Sucks to feel like this when I know I have an exciting future coming up. Oh well this to shall pass.

Saturday

Its Sat and I am on call. I just checked in with work and knock on wood, so far so good. I got woke up by the lovely wind and slept for alittle longer. Its very cloudy right now like it might try to rain. That would be good.
I did move a few things around in the living room playing with the room. Today I took all the pics and sconses off the wall. I am really trying to figure out how to stage my livingroom. I am thinking that I should take my over stuffed chair and put it in the sun room instead of the livingroom. There would be more space. Have to figure out how to play up my one wall that is tall. Lots of things to think about. Did pack a box of scrapebooking and yarn. Cleaned out 2 rooms of that stuff.
Doing little things is better then nothing.
I am feeling tired. So I am thinking a nap is in order. I also got someone to cover my call from 3am to 7am next Friday nite so I can be awake for traffic school Sat Morning.
Otherwise things are quiet and I will take quiet!

I am back among the living

I dont know if anyone noticed but I haven't posted in a week. I went to Phoenix last weekend. Had an awesome time with JJ and his girls and their family. The party at the stepdad's mom and dad's house was very nice. They were celebrating Shekei and her grandpa's birthday. Everybody was very nice and welcoming. It was fun. Shekei made out big time. JJ and Sta decided to let her have a phone again but with lots of limitations. No texting, only being able to call certain #'s, etc. Strict. She will have to do alot of proving of herself. Sunday we met up with the girls and their family at this really nice park. They fished and we just hung out for the day. I really do like their mom and step dad. They are all looking forward to me moving down there. Shekei even said you have to move down here quick. I said I am trying. That made me feel good, in fact on Sat the girls gave me a gift of a dolphin with a really nice note telling me how much they love me, and appreciate me and how they think I am very nice and they are glad I am around. That was sweet.
JJ and I decide to take off, use the pool at his place and then I am going to head back up. We did all that and then right after I left I got into a car accident. I was going thru an intersection and thought I had the green but the sun was in my eyes and as I went thru the intersection this car was turning in front of me and I hit her broadside towards the front over the front tire. Apparently I went thru a yellowish red light. I have never caused an accident. I was mortified. No engine damage just body work and that was on both of our vehicles. They were both drivable. In fact I drove back up after. I went right after work to my insurance company, filed the accident, took it to campus collision, they kept it, got a rental car and they were finished with it by yesterday. Good as new. Wouldnt even have known.
Now the kicker is I got sick on Monday with this aweful sore throat. I felt like crap. Mine you with this swine flu going around I was scared to death. I went to my doc and he thought I had strep throat. Prescribed meds and started on the zpack immediately. Well by yesterday I still was not feeling good. My throat was still killing me. Went back. He did a quick swab and I did not have strep throat. Someother bacteria or a virus. He put me on my lease favorite antibiotic, augmentin. So now I am on 2 antibiiotics. Have to finish out the 1st one so I dont become resistant to it. He put me on a huge dose of augmentin. Took 2 doses yesterday and about to start the next round this morning. I can say that I am feeling much better. Not 100% by any means. My throat just doesnt hurt as much, even when I cough.
Boy it sucks when you feel that bad. Wondering when you are going to feel better.
I am on call this weekend. I have to take pto but at lease I can hopefully work and make up some of my hours that I missed.
So today I can finally take care of business. I need to pay bills, find out about traffic school and when I can do that, take this off my record. And do alittle in my guess bedroom to move the process along. I have loss a whole of week of working on my house.
So anyway I am back among the living. Woohoo!
