???? I'm not sure.

Hey there, I offically started work on Saturday, and it was pretty great to be back. I missed the school so much. But... yeah there is a but, I never thought there would be either, but.. lol, I am feeling like the outsider again, I don't know if it's just because I was gone for two months or what. I felt this way when I had first started the instructor program, and then after awhile the feeling went away, so hopefully it will happen again. A lot of the students were excited to have me back, and some of the instructors were too. It's probably me just being paranoid. Time will only tell, plus it has only been one day, and it was a Saturday which are pretty stressful at the school. I am working tonight and it's going to go great!

Two more weeks left in this crappy apartment, I can not wait, I hope the time flys by. The school was nice enough to give me next weekend off so I can help move my stuff, which will be great, I am hoping we can get it all done on Friday and then just spend Saturday and Sunday getting everything in it's place. The more I can get done over the weekend the better. Then it will be time to start saving for some new furniture and paint! I am excited to be painting this time around.

Things with Steve and I have been pretty great. He got a car, but of course like all used cars things go wrong, so It's back at Dee's getting looked at. And he has actively started looking for a new job. Hopefully something good will come his way because he deserves it very much. I am sick of the stress and B.S. from his current job. It makes him moody, and cranky, and gets him sick cause he's working more then anything else.

I have been feeling like I'm in a funk lately, and kind of home sick. I just wish I had more friends out this way, or have more of my friends be more willing to come and visit or even try to hang out with me, I don't even mind driving out to see them but none of them except for Ricki even try to make plans with me, they act like I have fallen off the face of the earth or something. I think if I had more girl friends to hang out with, I wouldn't be feeling this way. A bunch of girls from work, were going out Saturday after work, and I kind of wanted to go but didn't want to invite myself, and no one even asked me if I wanted to go. It kinda sucks. But who knows maybe after awhile they will invite me out. I have mentioned to Julia a few times that I would love to go out with all of them. Again only time will tell.

Well, I should probably start getting ready for work now. It was good getting that out.

Holy Crap!

A lot has been going on over here lately, and that's why I haven't not had a chance to update.

I got to see my brother and my new sis in law which was awesome, and I got Steven to play some corn hole, with my papa, sowers, and I, it was a lot of fun.

In other news, I passed State Boards, and got offered a job at Douglas J. I am just now waiting for the state to process my application and payment for my license and as soon as that is done, I can start working. I have no idea what my hours are going to be, but I don't even care at this moment, lol. I am just thrilled to be working my dream job :)

Steven got very sick last week, and seriously almost died which would have been terrible. He got pnuemonia, so he was out for a week. I took good care of him though, and he is slowly getting back to 100%.

Last Wednesday night, I saw a mouse in our apartment, oh yay! I ran out and got some traps that night. And then I called maintence Thursday morning, he came out just looked and said he would get some traps. And then later on in the day he told me they were calling a pest control company to come out, so this makes me think they are having a bit of an issue with it. So Friday the pest control company came out and all he did was put some glue traps in my apartment, but I already had some decon, and some other glue traps set. Apparently he did mor ein the basement but I am not even 100% sure that happened. So this morning, I check the trap and there is this little gray mouse stuck and he was stilla live, and I felt like a horrible person carrying him out to the dumpster and throwing him in alive :( But I can't have him in my apartment. I reset the trap and still have the decon down. I am so sick of dealing with the mice.

THANKFULLY!!!! We will only have another month, because today we went and looked at townhouses and they only had one that was going to be available in October and a couple already came and looked at it but didn't do anything with it, and she said she had another couple coming to look at it, and we loved it so we applied, got approved and left a deposit, so we can move after October 14th, yay!!! I am so happy. It's 1400 sq ft, 2 bedrooms 1 1/2 baths, basement, yard, very nice, I am so excited, it is going to be so much better for us. We are thinking of either getting an invisbile fence or rigging it up some how, we will figure it out though.

Packing and actually moving is going to suck, but I can't wait to get out of this apartment!!!!

Well it's getting late so I should be getting to bed.

Nighty Night Kitty Cats!

Good Times

I had a blast last night with Ricki at the wedding recepition. I hope she did too! We danced, took photos in the photo booth and on my camera and drank a little :)

This morning I got the apartment cleaned. And now I am waiting for Steve to get out of the shower so I can put a face on before we head out to Hines Park for my brother Jeremy's MI reception, he got married on Aug 12th in Cali, where he lives but they were nice enought to throw a party here as well since alot of us who live here in MI couldn't make it to Cali. It should be interesting. I plan on staying about 2 hours, and then when we get back Nik and his friend Jessica are suppose to be coming over to hang out with us. I also invited our friend Laura, but I don't think she is going to make it :-/

I got a letter yesterday from the apartments about how the year has flown by and it's time to renew our lease, and how much it would be and blah blah blah but guess what?! We are not renewing, I do not like it here anymore. And I would really like to find a backyard for my puppies. I found a couple websites that we can look at houses for rent on. We will probably start seriously looking end of September since the lease is done in November. And hopefully by then I will know eaxactly where I am going to be working and what not. I really hope it's at Dougie J. I want to start my career as an educator already, lol. But i know I need to get my license first, hopefully that will be on Tuesday!!

Well I am going to go clean up the mop bucket real quick and then start getting ready.

Check ya later kitty kats!

♥ You Know You Love Me xoxo and I'll leave you with a pic from last night :)

Well hello kitty kats

So it's been awhile since I have updated so let's recap the last couple months.

April 18th, I started the Educator program at Douglas J, and I loved it so much. It was the best choice for me. I graduated from the program August 10th. And I had an interview with the HR department, and now I am just waiting. I am taking my state boards on Tuesday for my educator license :)

I ended up quitting my job at Petsmart in May, there was just no way I could have worked in the grooming salon and went to school and I had no idea if I was going to be able to go back to the hotel. So it was the best decision at that time. I miss the doggys.

I started working at LUV Manicures and Pedicures this week, I only worked two days and then when I called to get my schedule for next week, it was very odd cause she said she had worked on the schedule already but she could fit me in on a couple days. Don't do me any favors, gee's. I thought I was going to get a set schedule, and I thought I would be busy but I'm not so I am looking for a new job. I emailed the owner and asked him about what is going on cause it's kinda crappy.

Steve and I have been doing well lately. He has been very busy with work, but we still make time for eachother. We are going to be looking for a new place soon, which I am excited about, I really want to find a house that we can rent so I can have a backyard for my doggys. I found this website that has houses litsed on it from leasing companies so hopefully we will find something.

Tonight I am going on a date with Ricki, we are going to Jenny's wedding, hopefully it will be fun. I bought a new dress, new shoes, and make-up. I just painted my nails And I did my toes yesterday.

I colored my hair lastnight as well, I was very red with like orange bangs, and now I back to being a brunette. I missed it :) Steve keeps calling me brownie now and I love it.

But I should start cleaning up and messing around with my hair. Gotta figure out some way to do my hair.

See ya later kiddies

Happy Monday.

Yup I said Happy Monday, cause it's my day off. And even though it's wet and semi-gloomy outside, the tempertaure is pretty nice, according to my phone it's 63 degrees outside already, and it's only 9:30am. Maybe the sun will come out later too.

So I called into work today to see if Donna was there, I figured there is no sense in driving all the way out there to talk to her, if she's not there. I decided that I am going to ust wait and see if I can get back into the PetsHotel and see how that goes durning school, cause the extra little cash would probably help, and then I would still have my insurance, and I have always been happy working in the hotel. So hopefully I can get it figured out soon.

I have to do some grocery shopping today, hopefully I have money on food card. I have to call and check, I don't know what day they reload it every month, I should probably just hop on the website and find that out, lol. DERP! I am getting a pedicure today with Rachael, that will be nice, it's long over due, lol. SO that will be really nice. I wanna get the apartment clean too since Steve's mom's dogs are coming to stay with us Tuesday until Wednesday.

Well I should get started. See ya kiddies.

Holy stressed the fuck out!

Lately I have been thinking about if I want to quit my job while I am in school or keep it. It kinda all happened when I was talking to the PetsHotel manager and she informed me that shit might need me on Sundays too, fuck that! I don't want to go to school Mon-Fri 9-4:30pm and then work Sat and Sun, I would lose my freakin' mind.

Saturday I woke up and I wasn't feeling all that great, so I took a shower to try and ease it all away, it helped a little bit, then Steven woke up and we starte dtalking about it all, and he told me to do what I thought was best. And then I talked to my friend Ricki about it as well, they both helped me relax about it alot. So then I went to work, and it was ok for the first hour or so, and then it turned to hell, more so then usual, I had 2 dogs at 1pm, 2 at 2pm, 2 at 3pm, 2 at 4pm, 2 at 5pm, and 1 at 6pm, and they were almost all FURMinators which take a lot longer then normal bath and brushes. So around 5pm, when I only had one of the 10 done, I kinda started to panic, and I got super dizzy and started to feel sick to my stomach, why was I so behind you ask? Well I have to take care of any walk ins as well. ANd everyone thinks it's a great idea to come into Petsmart on a Saturday to get their dog's nails trimmed. Hey thanks! Like I don't enough to do. So I went into the back and started to cry, Melissa came back, and walked me to the break room, and got me a pop and a slice of pizza and tried to help me calm down, which was really nice of her. Then one of the store managers came in and was talking to me, and I told her i just couldn't take it anymore, and I went home. I have no idea if I will be in trouble or not, but right now I really don't care. I am seriously thinking about going in and putting in my two weeks tomorrow.

I came home and explained everything to Steve cause I was home 3 hours early, and he had Steph and Nik over, so then we all played some games and watched Tangled, and I felt so much better after just relaxing and not worrying about anything. I was actually up until 1am, and I slept in until 10am today, that's a first for me, lol. usually I am up at 8am.

So I got up and took the dogs out, and it was so nice out. Then Steve and I went and got food, and then did some running around, and then I took Nelly on a walk, and then decided to go to Target and get some patio chairs so I could sit outside and have Peanut in his pen, and Nelly on the stalk since it was super nice, so I sat outside for a bit and Steve joined me but he also had to work, cause he's on call this month. Then I came back in and played The Sims for a bit, and then went back and sat outside again and read some cosmo :) So it has been a prett good Sunday. I came bac in and played some more sims, and now I am just chilling, probably going to hit the hay soon, cause I want to start getting up at 7am this week, to help get use to it before school starts on the 18th!!

Found out my friend Julia is going to be in class with me, and that there are two others int he class, so it should be fun. I really hope everything goes al I plan and I get to work at the ROyal Oak school when it's all said and done. I am going to bust my ass for this place. :)

Alrighty, well I should probably t ake the dogs out one more time before I hit the hay.

Right now we have a chocolate lab named Nelly, who I have had since she was a pup and she's going to be 12 this June, She's my old bitty lol. And we also have Peanut, a long hair chihuahua who is going to 7 in September. I would really like to get a French Bulldog at some point, and a weiner dog.
