Okay, I know I have not written in a while. But I am writing now. Zack was evicted due to his behavior and that was bad. He got all confrontational and we had to call the cops on him and his day because they wouldn't leave the property. There was a fight between him and Chris and I got hurt. My wrist is badly bruised and I have a big cut on my thumb. He is to never come back here again. He lied and was rude and just terrible. He can't be trusted at all. He really showed his true colors.
But anyways, moving on. This week has been interesting. I went and took my physical for Prairie Meadows and I am in!!! I start my orientation on Monday! I am worried about mom because they said she was over qualified for the cocktail waitress, so they won't hire her. So she is trying to get on for the cage cashiering. She really needs this job. We just found out my dad has a really bad heart condition. Basically if his heart is under too much stress it could just stop beating and he could die. So it has been really hard for all of us to deal with this.
I quit my job at GoodWill on the spot. I worked a 8 hour Saturday shift and then I was reprimanded later on because I refused to let a lady use the dressing rooms. I was facing a possible 5 day suspension, so I told her that it was quite unreasonable and left. She should have fun covering my shifts, because I worked all this week. But that wasn't the only reason. She also basically said that she wouldn't work around my new jobs hours and was going to fire me anyway. SO I don't know what will happen there, because when I told my mom she made me come forward with all the sexual harassment that I have been receiving from my managers husband. I had kept quiet all this time because I never wanted to cause a conflict were I worked. I loved my job at GoodWill. It really does bum me out that I can't work there anymore.
I have this new found allergy to dog dander, so I have been working on cleaning the house. Plus we are rehoming Cy and thats going to be majorly important to that. He sheds a lot, plus every night he gets worse and worse and tears up stuff, so we know he needs some place new where he can be happy.
I think I have really updated on everything. Oh I have been doing puzzles and gluing them down, they are coming out well. I am going to hang some around the house today.

Well today has been a pretty awesome day off. Me and Chris went and deposited our checks. I made the car payment. I nearly forgot last time!! But all is good now. We went and ate at the A&W Long John Silvers place. It is soooo good there, but can be pricey. But it is worth what you pay, because their food is good and not all greasy. We went and looked around Pappys Antique Mall. Then we went to the appliance store right next to it. We found a awesome fridge there. We are going to make payments on it. Which isn't bad because we are establishing our credit that way too. Plus it is perfect for the house. It is really cute, and neat looking. Plus we are probably going to go back and get a deep freeze for in the basement. They have one there that is the perfect size and for brand new, a awesome price. The brand new fridge all together with the installation included is just less then $500. SO I am pretty happy. I think we will be getting a lot more of our appliances there.

Oh and then Chris took me home so I could rest because I am not feeling very good because it is that time of the month. Every now and then I feel sick then. Hopefully I feel better later on. Oh and we stopped at McDonald's and rented Spider man 3. It was pretty awesome. There was a lot of emotion and evil in it! I was pretty amazed at the action. I really liked it.

Then Chris went to WalMart after he dropped me off. I was resting when he came home. He went and bought me a new keyboard. He is so wonderful. I really needed one because Jeremy's old one was really nasty and a lot of the keys stuck funny and it was hard to type on. I am trying to increase my speed at typing. So have a nice keyboard really helps. Overall I have had a great day off.

We have been having some serious issues with Cy. He has been tearing into food, and going to the bathroom in the house. At first we thought it was just an issue with being in a new place. But now it is getting worse and worse. Plus with me taking a second job, I can't be here to clean it up and have others clean it up. No one can manage to clean up stuff unless I am here to tell them. I know several people have been down stairs to do laundry and no one folds the clean, so it gets washed over and over again. Then Cy has been pooping down there and no one cleans it up, even though I know they see it.
~LATER~
Okay, I saved the top to a draft and I am writing again later. This evening was not as nice as the earlier part of the day. I had to get on Zack and Jeremy's ass to clean up and it all went down. We all ended up fighting. I decided that Zack needed to get out and told him I would call the cops on him if he didn't leave. My brother told my mom and she came down and resolved everything for us. So now we are going to have a chore chart thing. I have to work with it with my mom tomorrow. I am still very pissed at Zack. I also found out tonight that Jeremy will be living at home while he goes to college. His college isn't as far away as I thought. I am actually happy about it. Although I did want him to leave with Zack earlier. So I am hoping now things will get better.

Good Morning

Well, last night at work sucked. But I am feeling pretty good this morning. SO it is all good. Todd sent me some of the pictures from Tuesday, so I am very happy about that. I am about to smack Garth, because he heard Cy outside barking and is walking around going Arf! Arf! He doesn't even fulling bark, it more like a weird puppy sneeze. I have to run to WalMart today and get puppy wormer. Then I need to pack my bag for this weekend. I am very excited about everything we have planned.
I don't know if I could ever smack Garth, because he looks like such a cuddly teddy bear. He is just so cute. When he touches you with his paws, he is just so gentle. He is still walking around barking at nothing in particular. If Coco wasn't such a big Mommas girl then I could hold then both on my lap. But Coco is my big baby, she has to sleep with me and everything. But thats ok, I love her. She just looks at me with those big brown/green eyes and I just want to give her anything she wants.
I need to go over to mom's house today too, because I have some new clothes for Mickey, she needed long sleeve shirts. I still really need to find my pedal for my sewing machine. I have like a dozen pairs of her pants here to hem, and she needs them. She doesn't have a lot that fits right because she is so short and round, lol.

Interview

OK, I am up, but so tired. I have a job interview today at 2. I need to find my hair clips so I can put my hair up in a bun. It is driving me nuts not being able to. I love my hair and all but we need time apart. Today won't be too interesting I assume because I work at 4, at GoodWill and then my interview. Other then that a whole lot of nothing going on. Jeremy doesn't have school, so he will probably sleep all day. Then Zack is in sleeping as well. His dad stopped by last night and should come by some time today. Which is good because he is supposed to give me 5 bucks and take our empty cardboard boxes. I just realized that I am the only one not sleeping. Coco is laying here in my lap, passed out. All the boys are sleeping, and Cy and Zoe are not to be found. It was funny last night Cy was snoring in the hallway. The boys got my closet put together, Chris has a few final things to do before it is finished.
I had this bad dream last night that I had to check my water coming out of my pipes in the bath tub to see if they had this bug or poison or something in it. So I took home this test and tried it and we had it and I was freaking out. Then my dream switched over to me and Chris walking around this weird carnival place looking at used fridges. This one makes sense, because we need one. But every time we found one we liked and could afford, then it would have a tag on it saying some one had either bought it or reserved it. SO that was tons of fun. Oh and then Chris got a bunch of ice cream and was carrying it on his shoulder and was dropping it on the floor and I was really mad at him, because the place we were at was all hard wood floors and he got in trouble for dropping it. I was so mad and frustrated in my dream. Then some little girl was bugging me to do my hair, which happens a lot and I usually like but in my dream I had already taken the time to do it up and detailed braids and didn't want it messed with. But they kept bugging me. So yeah, not so great dreams last night.
But speaking of my hair, I need to go look for those clips and get me something to eat.

No time to Play

Well, I am home alone and this is pretty unusual. I am getting more boxes packed up. The only issue is I am out of boxes. Plus I let Chris take the car to work. I really need to go over to my moms and borrow her vacuum. Linda was really nice and gave me one, but it didn't work. It may just need cleaned out or something, but it wasn't really picking stuff up. So I am back to a no vacuum dilemma. I have been trying to get things cleaned up and done, but it just seems like I am not getting any where. There is so much stuff I can't pack because we use it all. Coco is getting annoyed with me because I am not playing with her. So I have to keep stopping and playing with her. Poor baby, she just wants to play. Cy has a attitude problem. He wants to play with any one but her. He was playing with her a little bit last night, but I am worried he would hurt her. We haven't seen the attic at the new house yet. I am hopeing to be pleasantly suprised. We know there is an attic because there are two windows up there and they are open. I am just wondering how long they have been open. Because the house belonged to a little old lady. If it was hard to get up there I don't see some little old lady doing that. But I am wondering how much space is up there. I am just one of those people I hate to waste useable space. Like the basement, it is as big as the upstairs floor. Throw down some carpet and walls, and you might as well be living in a two story house! So I am very excited. My dad is going to do some work on the kitchen, so it is bigger. Eventually I am going to put a bathroom down stairs. What sucks though, is even if I put two more bedrooms down stairs and a bathroom, if I sell it they don't count. So basically some one has to discover that the house is twice as useful as it is listed as.

Early/Late

Well I got up early and late for what time I was supposed to get up. I need to get over to my moms. I put flea and tick medicine on Cy last night and now he stinks. I am not sure if they are connected or not, but he does stink. Jeremy went to school and Zack headed out to work. SO it is just Chris here sleeping. I would wake him up, but he is always grumpy when I do. He doesn't work until four. I have a new chart that I picked up at GoodWill. I use it to keep track of the boys work schedules. Since that kinda matters now that I am home all the time. Chris is going to go and talk to some guys about a job tonight. It pays awesome, but has a lot of travel. So I guess we will see what happens with that. He will be home at mid-night.

Good News!!

Today has been a pretty good day. We have finally decided on the house, the cost and the close date!! I am very happy to announce we will be closing on the house on October 12th, only a few weeks behind schedule. It is such a nice house. We are all very excited about the move. We are having issues with the current landlord, so we are fairly eager to tell them to shove it. I should be going Sunday to get my puppy! I am very excited, but trying not to be too excited, because I don't want to get my hopes up and then last minute something happen. Mickey and Holden are staying the night tonight. I don't think Mickey is feeling very well. We had to beat Cy a little while ago, because he thought it would be fun to explore the cat litter box. He is usually such a good dog, but I think cats are just foreign to him.

Every one! Switch Places!!

Ok, I am going to mix things up a bit here. We went to the new house today and found out that they did not properly winterize the house at all, and we do not know the extent of the damage. I went over to my parents house after school, and after a lot of talking, and web searching, I am getting a different house. That is if it is still available. I have to call the realtor first thing in the morning, call Jon first thing in the morning, and make up all the arrangements. I am crossing my fingers I can keep my original move date. We have so much of the packing done already and everyone keeps giving us more boxes!! Thanks everyone! Oh and the new place we will get to live across the street from Linda. Which would be so wonderful, she is such a wonderful lady! I am very excited about this place. It has a very hidden drive way, it took us over 15 minutes just to find it. I will update more on this tomorrow night. Zoe is doing so well. Her hind end is even starting to look better. She was pretty tore up when we got her. But she is very happy to have her own space. Cy still tries to sneak in there, but he knows better mostly. Things are going really well here. Everyone is getting along really well.

New Cat!

Well, we drove all the way out to the Tanger Outlets to get Zoe. She is my new siamese cat, and is pregnant. We locked up Cy, because after traveling, she seemed pretty nervous. So we stuck him in the bathroom for a couple of hours(sorry Cy!). We couldn't find her later on, and she had gotten into the back of the couch. Poor thing, she is just not adjusting well. Oh and Cy loves her, and she hates him. Hopefully they will get used to her. She is about a month along we think, so no kittens until after the move.

I got a bunch of cleaning done!

I am so glad I got a ton of cleaning done. Jeremy and Me got the dishes done, and Jeremy dealt with the trash. Cy is being cute and clingy. We got the kitchen cleaned up completely. I packed three more boxes. So it looks nice in here. I sold some more stuff on eBay today. I got payment for one, and waiting for a other one. I am watching a bunch of auctions for Kirby vacuums, I want to get one to clean this place, and the new place. Kirby's are the only ones you use to vacuum up old skin, but anyways, I am too tired to go into detail.

Ewww mostly

Well, I think I am sick, at least this is what Chris tells me. Earlier he orders me to go lay down, I sleep, I get up, he feels head, and says you sick. So I guess I am sick. I feel like crap, but it is that time of the month, so I just thought it was crap, and now I get the joy of special crap! Oh, and my sweet Cy stayed in the bedroom the whole time I was napping. My sweet doggy was worried about me. I love him so much. Jeremy got paid today, and we went to the bank and filled up his gas tank. I got a whole bunch of bills in the mail today, which oddly is a good thing, because I need to know when to pay them. I have to do all kinds of math and bill stuff tomorrow. Also I have to call MediaCom and bitch because they are chargeing me for a phone I don't have! Ah, but they have sealed their fate, and I am going through a different company when we move! I am so tired of their crap! Chris has been my knight in shinning armor, he has been taking care of me so well. I am so lucky to have him here. I will probably just work until I died!

Good Morning

Well, usually I am not home this early in the morning. But I decided it would be nice to pick up Chris from work, instead of him having to walk home from work. I came home and took Cy out to potty. He is such a lover. He is always sitting under my desk, just so I pet him a little while I am online. I have never had such a good dog. It is funny because he talks a lot. It scares Mickey and Olivia some times, because he yawns, and makes growling noises all the time, but it just him talking. He sounds like that big furry guy off star wars. I love that he is so vocal. He makes all kinds of noises when we play with him too! I am a little worried about Cy though, because we found this scab on his back and we have no idea when he even got hurt. He has never been in a fight or anything, the worst was when he accidently scratched Gretchen, but I didn't think she got him back. But I am just happy it is on his back so he can't lick it or anything.

Typing

I found this site last night that determines how fast you type. I thought I typed a lot faster then that. But I guess I don't. The problem I think I have is I look at the keys, even though I can locate most if them without looking. Jeremy can type really fast though, he is my computer whiz. My ebay sales are going well today, a lot of them end today, so I have to prep them to ship. I let Cy out and I am so proud of him, there were kids out side and he only strayed for just a moment and then he came back in. I gave him a treat for doing so good. I will probably be writing on here a lot more so I can get my typing speed up to par. I am trying to get a secretary job in DesMoines. I don't really care for the nanny job I am working now, but I would make more money doing data entry. I am getting so excited about the move, Jeremy is working today and should be bringing home boxes. We need them pretty bad because I used up the last of them last night. The house is already starting to look more bare!

Stopping to Eat

They still didn't have anything to eat at work, so I brought Olivia here to eat. It was better then nothing. My friend Linda needs more help moving, her husband feel down the stairs yesterday and had to go to the hospital. I feel so bad for them. I have been thinking about the house a lot lately and I am going to make up a moving schedule, so I know how fast to pack everything up. I can't wait until we can let Cy run outside again. He is such a good dog. Chris is running laundry, now that there are four of us here again it is hard to keep up! He has been playing some game on Zacks xbox a lot lately. He has it hooked up in the bedroom so everyone can use the lving room still. Once we move it should be easy to have a system for each guy, because we have so many big TV's.

Done for the night!

Awwww, I just had to put some pictures of me and my baby on here! I love Cy so much. It is so sweet he follows me every where. I thought I would post one last time before I went off to bed. I had a long day. Tomorrow I go back to work and don't know if I will have a chance to get back on the computer again. I have to talk to Dawn about getting the van fixed, so it might be interesting what happens tomorrow.

Just thoughts

Being single is odd for me, but it is a good kind of independence. I have Chris, Jeremy, and Zack all as great friends and roommates. I am glad to have them all. I guess I am lucky our lives have intertwined they way they have. Plus with buying this new house it is so exciting to be able to share this experience with them. I really don't need a boyfriend while I have my boys to take care of. Making sure Jeremy does well in school, getting Zack back and forth to work, and making sure Chris remembers to eat and sleep! I have my hands full. I am happy with life, we all are. Nothing to hold us back or tie us down. I feel like together we can accomplish anything and everything. So far we have. I am just so excited about the house. We are all pretty eager to start the remodeling. Zack and Chris have been coming up with designs for my bedroom and walk-in closet. I own over 40 pairs of shoes and at least 30 pairs of jeans! So the design process has been fun. I am excited to have a yard for Cy to run in! My parents are even starting to become supportive. We will be living 3 houses down from them. Chris really likes the location, we are in a pretty rich part of town, so no crime. I can't wait!

Cleaning

Done! I just finished cleaning up the house. I vacuumed out the van and it looks so much better. Then I vacuumed every room in the house. They look much better. There was tons and tons of Cy hair. It was like I found another dog! Oh, and it was so funny, he tried to bite the vacuum. He didn't bark or anything, just tried to nip at it! It was hilarious. The bedrooms look so much better.

Cleaned Up

I have the garage cleaned back up the way it needs to be. All the packed boxes are stacked in the corner. Took Cy to the bathroom. He is my good dog. Mickey has been here with me all afternoon. She has been pretty good. I gave her a bath earlier. One piece of furniture has already sold and someone is picking up another later. I am putting the money in the house savings. I am so excited. We will know the day after tomorrow about the loan!

Pack pack pack

I got a bunch more packing done today. I think we did pretty good too. Cy has been really clingy. I think he knows whats up. I would never leave him behind though, He is my sweet puppy. Me and Chris banned together and baiscally got the garage working. Zack fixed my bike, which is awesome. I feel like I should be tired but I am not really. We dicided to sell some of our furniture and I already have abunch of people interested in what I have. So today has been pretty good overall. I actually got to sleep in and I got a ton of stuff done.

This Blog

I have been using this blog for a little while now and I have to say that I really like it. It is easy to use and maintenance. Plus it is just nice. I keep a link to it in my favorites and all I have to do is just a couple of clicks and I am all set. I have always liked writing and I can type just a little faster then I can write. Plus I enjoy typing. I am not sure why but I have been super loving towards Cy lately. He is such a good dog. I guess I am just lucky to have such a good dog who fits in with my life and routine. Especially at his age, because he is six years old. Well, I am going to go take a nice shower.
