Was off on Friday, we finally got cable (digital with the dvr and everything) I am pretty happy with it. Then I spent the afternoon with my sister who was home for a weekend visit. Saturday My inlaws came up for a visit so a cleaning frenzy had to happen (my house looked like ww3 hit it) and yesterday I slept in and then watched more tv and went to my parents for a yummy supper of chinese food.
Today I start my shadowing for my position at work...I will let you know how it went later.
have a great day!!!!

SOOO SOORRRYYY!!!
ONCE AGAIN I AM SOOO SOORRRYYY!!!
I know I have been MIA for a while things have been a little crazy, let me fill you in.
The position I applied for at work well I got it (happy dance), and in the mean time I have been subbing full time for another co worker so I have been super super busy with work stuff and super super tired in the evenings and have been asleep some nights by 8 (the nights I wasn't I was doing lesson planning, or attempting to anyway) so there for that is pretty much the main reason I have been MIA.
Another reason is I finally got this crazy flu bug that has been going around I started not feeling good last Tuesday and Saturday morning around 3 am it hit me like a ton of fucking bricks!! I am thankful that it was Saturday so that I am only missing today at work (to fully recover) and not 3 or 4 days. This flu is evil not only did I have a temp that couldn't make up it's mind as to be low grade fever, a high fever or a normal temp (reason why I am MIA at work today) but it included some power pukeing and diareaha (I know TMI). Just warning you that it is not a flu bug that you want to get.
Well I guess that is all I have to type for now tomorrow I will post how correct my Oscar Winner Predictions were, right now I need to go take my temp again I really need to go to work tomorrow.
ta ta for now

...
once again sorry for being MIA....
Things are still crazy, the car still is not working.
Work has been super busy as I have been subbing full days for the past 2 weeks and I am preparing for a job interview (within the center I work at) for a full time position, I am super, super nervous about it when I know that I shouldn't be.
Another busy thing that has been happening is at work we are starting to prepare to get ready for the realy for life, we did it last year in memory of a co worker and are doing it again this year again in her memory but also for some of us for more personal reasons, this year it really hits home for me because my brother in law has cancer he found out in november that he had it after not feeling good for a couple of months, and just recently found out type and stage and has started chemo treatment.
Any way I need to go eat some supper.
Catch ya'll on the flip side

Life
Sorry I have been MIA for prety much a week but life has been pretty crazy around here lately.
The main thing right now is...
The Transmission went in the car and that means, my hubby (I don't drive, details as to why another time) is pretty much with out wheels until a) we can get a new transmission or b) some how come up with money and buy a good second hand car...for now he is relying on borrowing my Dad's car and his boss allowing him to bring home a company van.
As for all the other stuff, it's a new week and almost a new month and I have decided to let alot of the stupid silly stuff go away, or forgive and forget as some people say.
But as usual, just when you think that all is going good, it turns out it isn't. Hopefully we can get things back on track come the middle of February because I really just want things to be semi normal again (I'll let you know how that goes)
Have a Beautiful Day!!!!

itunes suffle
I have been home with a migrane today so things have been pretty quiet today, but this evening after supper the migrane was gone and I decided that it was time to sort through some of the music on my ipod...and well that ended up with 669 songs left that is enough music for 1.8 days! And it is all stuff I like and will suit any kind of musical mood I am in. So I decided to hit shuffle and play and then write down the first 10 songs that play, along with a comment about the song if I think it needs one.
Here we go...
1.TLC-If They Knew
2.Ben Lee-Catch My Disease
3.Toby Keith-Bullets In The Gun (LOVING THIS SONG RIGHT NOW)
4.Tim McGraw-It Felt Good On My Lips (LOVING THIS SONG RIGHT NOW)
5.Fall Out Boy-Thanks For The Memories
6.The Beatles-Hey Jude (MY GO TO SONG WHEN I FEEL DOWN)
7.Nickelback-Fight For All The Wrong Reasons
8.Bryan Adams-Summer Of 69'
9.Shrek the movie-Karaoke Dance Party (IT MAKES ME LAUGH AND MAKES ME HAPPY)
10.Rent Soundtrack-Take Me or Leave Me (ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES)
There you go.
