Omg.. lets catch up!

How has it been almost 4 months since I have blogged?? Geez where does the time go?!

Ok seriously.. I hated the look of my blog and more importantly I hated that I couldnt fix it. I couldnt stand looking at the blog, let alone trying to think of something to blog about. Im usually pretty good about figuring things out... if lights suddenly go out on one side of the apartment. I got it. I know exactly which breaker has tripped. (This is funny to me because Jess doesnt ha!) If we get a new TV or anything electrical (electronical as my momma would say! ;) ). I hook it all up without reading directions and it usually works right the first time. But this damn blog sent me over the edge. I googled every imaginable phrase to find something to teach me to make a damn header that I was happy with. So for the last 2 weeks or so on my off days I tried to figure this shit out. I settled on a collage with a white background. BAM! Done. I actually like it. Then I spent several days trying to figure out those damn social media icons. After nearly pulling my hair out and throwing my laptop clear across the room... I heard Angels singing... and found this lady's blog on making your own icons. God bless her!! Took me 15 min to make mine and Jess' icons! Score. And she taught me how to make my own button. Never knew I wanted one till I read her blog!! Now, I am a happy girl and life is complete.

Since I last blogged.... so much as happened. But they deserve individual posts-- so here's whats coming soon...

- My Birthday Surprise

- End of 1st semester of Nursing school

- Jess graduated

Look at that face!!

Random Updates!

Not much has happened recently.. but here are some facts.

  • I am graduating with my associates degree in pre-nursing this Friday night! :)

  • I was accepted into both the HIM and HSA programs, which I am super excited about. Ultimately I am choosing the HSA program. I cant wait for FALL.

  • I got all A's this past quarter, which makes my gpa a little higher which is always better for nursing school.

  • Jess and I are both off work for the next 5 days for a little graduation celebration weekend. Plus my mom is coming down for a few days.

  • We had a lovely day yesterday at a water park. We spent the whole day just me & her with NO PHONES! It was awesome :)

  • The next few days, I plan on cleaning, graduating, and finding a pool to relax by. Being at the water park spoiled me yesterday and now I NEED to lay out by some water.


Happy Tuesday!!

>Some Bulleted Updates!!

>We havent blogged as much lately, but here's what is going on!!

  • We moved into a house, 2 bedrooms/1 bathroom. It has a huge yard for the dogs to run in. house was built in 1935 and has been updated but still have old character. The a/c in our house is amazing... nothing like the apt we had. In our apt, we kept a/c on 63-65 because it was always sooooo hot!! I think the a/c unit needed to be serviced but they were too lazy to really do anything about it. Plus there werent any trees to help shade the apt from the sun. Well, there a plently of trees to shade our house and we now can keep it on 68-70!! :) We are no longer sweating to death from this GA heat!



  • We attempted to get another chihuahua. He was 10 yrs old and just needed a loving home. He has the same temperment as Kiwi, so they got along great. However, he did not like Mango. He kept trying to attack our little baby. Luckily, our teacher (whom we got him from) said we could bring him back at anytime, as she was originally the rescuer :)



  • I changed my major. Im no longer going to be a nurse. I realized recently that I hate science. And I dred going to classes and I dont care at all about what is being taught. Which is probably a bad thing since I need to be retaining this info for all those damn nursing tests. Now, Im majoring in education. Most likely early childhood, but I want to master in school counseling. I just want to help children and their families. I wanted to be a social worker but I cant handle all that stress and heartache when I want to have my own family. Being a teacher/counselor, I think will give me the schedule to be home with our future kids and have the family life we want. Plus, with Jess being a teacher as well, as schedules will be similar and provide stable enviroments for our kids.



  • In a couple of weeks, will be our 2 year anniversary!!!

>Memories in the Making =)

>We're still here! We apparently took a short break from blogging, but we're back!! Im officially done with fall quarter, things didnt go exactly the way I wanted but all is well. I'll just study harder next time. I got all B's and that is unacceptable to me. Although, Jess keeps telling me B's are good! I just stress about not getting A's because Im terrified of not getting into nursing school. Im so glad its over for now and it couldnt be at a more perfect time with the holidays just around the corner. I dont go back till Jan 11th!! =)

Basketball Season has officially began and I so love seeing her play! My favorite days are the road trips my bff and I take for games. We go to the games within a 3 hrs radius of home. Although this past weekend, she was in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. And that trip was just too far for me to drive, plus it was my mom's birthday. So I went home to moms and she went to Fl. While I always enjoy hanging out with my mom, spending almost 4 days apart was unbearable. =( We missed each other like crazy and trying to sleep without her was almost impossible. As if that wasnt bad enough, she texted me Saturday and tells me she's stuck in the hotel elevator. Ok, in reality I know she'lll be fine, there's no need to worry and the situation is probably actually funny. However, I'm extremely claustrophobic and just the thought of her stuck made me feel sick and my chest all tight.. ahhh... of course in 20-30 min the firemen got them out. No big deal. Haha but the best part was one of her teammates got it all on video and posted it on facebook. Needless to say it was pretty funny! The best part to me was watching the fireman rescuing Jess. Jess is the "tough boyish one" and she was like a "damsel in distress" that had no choice but to let the fireman get her out the elevator. :D It was priceless. I drove home yesterday at 7 am as soon as it was slightly daylight and my mom wouldnt fuss about me driving in the dark (shes a bit of a worrier). I couldnt wait to get home and snuggle with my baby!!

Last night was our New Moon Date Night. I love date night more than anything! But seeing New Moon just made it 100x better!! :D The movie was amazing!! And as much as we loved Twilight, New Moon was way better. Im glad they didnt change out "Jacob" because I dont think the movie would have been the same. And that 30 lbs of muscles he gained.. O.M.G.!! The whole movie I was just like DAMN!! hahaha Jess was starting to get a little worried I think, lol. Of course, she never has anything to worry about. But after you read a book, fall in love with characters and the actors actually meet your expectations on screen, you just fall harder for them. The funny thing is the whole time I was reading the books I HATED JACOB. I was Team Edward all the way. BUT! In the movies, Im all Team Jacob!! I dont like Robert Pattinson for Edward at all. Although, I think he was much better in New Moon than Twilight. I just think Taylor Lautner portrays Jacob perfectly. We saw Twilight twice in theathres, I cant wait to see it again!! I just hope we can afford to go again! Omgosh, It was Packed! And we knew this, so we got in line an hour and half early and so did about 100 other people. But we were first which Jess just loved :D When they let us in, it was almost completely full in 10 min. People would come in and seemed to be completely stunned that there wasnt anywhere left to sit. I mean, really? Did they really think there would be seats 10 min before the movie actually started?! We had already prepared ourselves for this and sat on the end, so when the manager came in and told people to make room and slide to the ends of the rows, we were already there. Good thing too, because I would not have moved anyways. I was there early and I shouldnt have to be inconvienced by there tardiness. Our end seats were actually in the middle because we were by the top set of stairs. So it was perfect.

:D

>Update.

>So I blogged about this potenial job in an earlier post, well the job called me and asked if I could change my class schedule to fit their needs.. I said I could. But they wanted me to make sure and call them back. So I did. No one answered. For like a week and half.. I didnt hear anything. Then the lady called back and informed me that she doesnt work at the branch that was hiring, she hires for all branches, but she believed that position had been filled!! WHAT?! You asked me to change my schedule and then never call back?? UGH! That was like 5 weeks ago.. this morning I got an email saying the position had been filled and thanking me for my interest in their company. Wow.. really??? A little late there B.B&t!!

Anywho- its been a rather boring 5 weeks. Although I go back next week!! YAY!! Tues (Sept-8) was Jess' 21st Birthday!! We went out to dinner with some friends and her family. I think she was pleased. I surprised her with Disney.s Car.s Plate set, which she totally loves! So I think that made her extra happy!! We dont drink really, but we went and bought some Malib.u anyways lol. And the guy at the liquor store gave her a free bottle of Rum. :)

Today, were going to lunch with my friend from high school that I havent seen in forever!!

:)
