Seriously?

Seriously Michigan?

I woke up this morning to ugly, nasty and most definitely disgusting snow! UGH! I already despise Michigan but really its April 18th for crying out loud! So lame!! It was almost nice that I could not really see it at first because I had vaseline in my eyes from sleeping (side note, I got my eyeliner re-tattooed on Saturday and have to keep them moisturized with the vaseline). But even so, this girl is not pleased. GAG! Here is a picture of where I would much rather be...





On a happier note since quite a few of the people whose blogs I read, have been writing about our book club book, Water for Elephants. I will just say that I loved it! :-) It was a fabulous book, and I am excited to see the movie despite the fact that it will be slightly lame because Robert Pattinson is playing the lead, and he just doesn't fit the character at all in my mind. And because in the book, Jacobs hair is red, and in the movie Robs is definitely not. Fail!


On a sad note, I am trading in my Jeep today :-( I love my Jeep and am really going to miss it!
2009 Jeep Wrangler Sunburst Orange Pearlcoat/Black Hard Top
But the happy part of that, is that I will be getting a Honda Fit, although I will admit it looks kind of ugly, 35 miles a gallon will be quite nice:-) And its going to be red, at least that will make it a little bit better and it has lots of space. So I could drive a dog or dogs somewhere or even go to the beach on a whim and not feel the effects on my wallet as much. :-D I think that will be a win!


And this weekend is Easter, Can I just say that I am SOOOO incredibly grateful that Jesus died on the cross for me! And then he rose from the dead. God is absolutely incredible and this week I will be thinking of just how thankful I am for that blessing, Jesus dieing for me, and that he is concerned about all areas of my life! :-) Even getting a new car (even if I don't like cars) and there being nasty snow on the ground.

last 11-11

Tonight marks my last 11a-11p shift, and I am excited! :-)

And one more 12 hour shift and then its the weekend and Ihave Friday off! And on Friday that means one week until I get my permanent eyeliner redone. Its shaping up to be a pretty fabulous week/weekend. My naughty dog, Hagrid, got a lion cut and looks cute, so he now has a few days in which he gets to live. (He lately has been peeing in my house, and its super annoying!)

Well, its about time to change and punch out!
Good night friends!

what to write?

I always have such great blog topics when I am not at a computer or have no access to internet. So currently, I feel like I have lots to write about but way to many thoughts and how I should present them to you my readers.

I suppose I could tell what I am thankful for at this moment:

Sun shining! :-)

Some new jewelry that is on its way here, from Silpada no less.

A job, even though last night I was ready to give my two weeks notice.

A wonderful family.

New unpainted doors. (they may get painted today even).

A house and a really comfy queen size bed.

3 cute dogs, who would probably like to go on a walk on this sunny somewhat warm day.

A new phone, yes an iphone. I really like it and the ability to play words with friends, lol. Although at the moment I am losing each of the games I am playing.

A gracious loving God, who wants my best and wants it first. Why is this so hard? This week as I get paid I am going to tithe, which I should have been doing anyway but it just seems so hard to do sometimes, when I really could use that money.(this should also have been written first, but the sun is out and shining because God created this wonderful day.)

A shamrock shake, that I will be enjoying this afternoon in honor of st. patricks day. (I have to work, so I won't get one tomorrow.)

An entire week off from working out:-) I did complete 90 days of p90x, which is pretty swell! I'm loving the results and am kind of excited to do one more round.

Well I suppose at the moment, that is all. Enjoy the sun if you are lucky enough to see it today!

Schedules..

I am pretty excited, about 2 weeks ago at work I asked if I could go down to 2 ten hour days and 1 twelve hour day, but they said no. So I was kind of mad about this, but today I got told I am able to do this and I am happy :-) And I will always get to leave at 9:30p instead of 11:30p. Which makes for a much nicer drive home.

Yesterday Jared and I went to look at new doors for my house, I'm pretty excited about them! :-)It is going to look sooo different, but soo good! And I rearranged my living room, with help from my mom. And that looks pretty fabulous as well! And I even vacuumed my house and wiped off the dusty counters, its pretty shocking that I am trying to not live like a pig ;-) hehe!

Sun!!!

Can I just say I love the sun?? Ahhh, just driving in it yesterday to work was fabulous. And I had a pretty good attitude most of the day as well. Notice I say most of the day, because something always happens and annoys me at work. I would like to only work in the operating room 1 or 2 days a week, please :-)

And it has now been a week since my power has been back on!! I was without it for about 3 days last week and it was no fun at all!! But everytime I have come home I have been so excited to turn on lights and have heat!! I love electricity. I dont think I would do very well without it, even though I sometimes say I could be Amish, I think not as I love my computer, heat, blogs, the internet, going to a drive-thru, not cooking pretty much ever. I guess I like how things are just fine. I will continue to enjoy and be thankful for all the many amenities I have.

I have one more 12 hour shift and then 4 days off of work!!!!! I am so excited, I wont probably do much but still I love a 4 day weekend! I need to go pick out new doors and doorknobs and get some paint for the basement floor so maybe that will occur this weekend, we shall see! I know painting will happen, only because Jared wants to get that done and anytime I have help with painting, I will take it!! I despise painting, so maybe I wont have to do much at all :-)

well I suppose thats its for now!
Happy March all!!! Hooray, we made it through February!!

Jesus loves me this I know..

For the Bible tells me so.

This song is such a good reminder of why we need to be in the Word. I have been doing my best to read at least one chapter in my Bible everyday. Even if its midnight or later when I get home from work. I can't pretend like I have such a busy life, when I really don't and in order to grow in the knowledge of God, I must be in the Word. God wants that from me and even for me! :-) He has such great things in his love letter to me, and how am I ever going to learn them if I don't read?

Happy Valentines Day:-)

Happy Valentines Day!

Not that this holiday is really all that exciting to me. I figured I would post something little on here. I did however wear red all day and I have on cute heart bracelets :-) So all is not lost, lol.
I'll be going out to dinner which will be nice. And I am currently typing on my computer at my house stealing internet from one of my unsuspecting neighbors, hehe!~ So Happy Valentines Day to them as well.

I kind of thought they were valentine-ish:-) And I just love sock monkeys!



We had book club this past weekend and it was very nice!

Church has been so great lately, if I had my notes and my Bible I would write some more about that. But I just love Northpointe. I am hopefully going to get involved with the youth group here soon, and I am really really looking forward to that! God is so good!

well i suppose that is it for now.
