I was just reading JC’s Favorite Things and decided to write a little blog about some of my favorite things…

~Macaroni and cheese with apple sauce on top- I’ve ate this ever since I was little at the babysitters.
~Army Wives- This show is so good and I can’t miss it when it’s on TV
~Bandannas- My Favorite restaurant! I always order the beef plate with fries and corn on the cob!
~My blackberry
~Neutrogena products- I use several of these products

I may be adding to this as I think of things that I are my Fav's!

Short Day

Today was a short day for me. I worked from 8 to 11:30, and then went to an office luncheon that lasted until 1. The food was really tasty. We went to the Eagles for a home style lunch. I then went back to work for an hour. I had an eye appointment this afternoon so I got off work at 2. I picked out some new glasses that I should be getting within a week or two. While at my appointment the lady that was helping me pick out a pair of glasses cracked me up because she was telling me how much everything was going to cost. While doing so she was telling about an extra fee that is going to added to my lenses. She said this fee was because my lenses were too thick because my eyes were so bad. It doesn’t seem as funny typing it… I guess you just had to be there because when she said this it just made me laugh!

Our Trip

We had a really great weekend in St. Louis!

Friday we arrived in downtown St. Louis around 3:30. After checking into our hotel room we walked down by the arch and down by the landing. We stopped at Big Daddy’s Bar for a few drinks. (mine water- dang it) Then went back to the hotel to get dressed to go out to Dave and Busters for dinner and to play in the arcade. We were at Dave and Busters from about 6 to 12!!! That’s a long time but we sure had fun!

Saturday we went to Budweiser and went on the tour. On the way in we got to take our picture with a Clydesdale which was pretty cool even though I’m afraid of horses. When we left the brewery it was starting to rain so we decided to go to the mall since it was indoors. Saturday night we went out to dinner at Houlihan's for Amy’s birthday. It was really good food even though our waitress was a B. After dinner we went to Wal-Mart to get the Battle of the Sexes and played that at the hotel while we had a few drinks. It was a lot of fun even though the boys won!

Sunday we got dressed to head back to town. We stopped and White Castle for lunch. Then we went by Bass Pro to look around and finally got my Krispy Kreme! They were even better than I expected!

All and all it was a great time!

What a Night

Tonight we went out to Steve's restaurant in Russellville to eat dinner for my cousin Amy and Aunt Carols birthdays. The food was so good and it was all you can eat! We were all extremely stuffed when we left.

Now I have to get ready to pack for my trip! I'm such a bad packer because I don't ever know what I'm going to want to wear... I'm so indecisive. So packing will probably take me a while... lol go figure... Oh and I usually pack a lot more than what is necessary.

But the good news is half a day of work and I'm off! Woo Hoo!

I'm Ready!

I am super glad that the work week is just about over for me. I had to work 8-5 at my full time job today and then 6-10 at my part time job1 Wow that makes for a long day. But the good news is that I am down to 1 ½ day of work before we leave for our trip to St. Louis. I’m really looking forward to it. I think that Friday night we are going to try to go to Dave and Busters to eat dinner and play in the arcade. Saturday we were planning to walk to different places downtown and adventure around until we realized that it is supposed to rain L Now we are trying to think of some things that we can do indoors. Not that there is nothing to do in St. Louis it is just deciding on what we want to do. But hopefully if it doesn’t rain until the evening then we can stick to our plan. I believe that Sunday we are going to go to Krispy Kream! I’m so excited because I’ve never been to one and I’ve heard it’s really neat! So hopefully the next day and a half will go by fast so that we can head on up to St. Louis! It should go by fast since I have been getting more work in and then tomorrow night we are going out to eat for Amy and Aunt Carols birthdays.

Nerdy

I really like blogging although I don’t really have a lot to write about sometimes. I do try to write about once a week though. Tonight I was sitting in the living room thinking about what I should blog about. I asked everyone here what they thought a good topic for a blog would be. Natasha then explained to me how I was a nerd for blogging, but this girl wanted to go buy a book to read the whole thing tonight! And she calls me a nerd! Wow! She also told me how I shouldn’t blog about this because she didn’t want to get a bunch of hate mail on her myspace! Hahaha well watch out Natasha because here it comes! Oh and did I mention that after she made fun of me for blogging she says she has a blog… I think she needs to make up her mind whether blogging is nerdy or not! Hahaha jk Natasha!

Blackberry Updating

I recently updated my phone. I was kind of nerves about doing it because I was afraid it would mess something up. However, once it was updated I was sooo excited! It made my internet browser like a real computer and changed my text messages. It also gave me a video recorder! I was really pleased with the out come of the update! So if you have a blackberry go update it now! lol

Its almost here!

Josh and I are planning a trip to St. Louis with my cousin Amy and her husband Shawn on the weekend of the 17th. Amy’s birthday is the 18th and so she asked Josh and me to go with them to hangout and just kind of get away for the weekend. And boy is it going to be nice to get away and just have some fun! I love taking small weekend trips just to take my mind off all the small and large things that may be bothering me. St. Louis usually seems to be the place to go for us. We always have a good time. We are all really excited about going.

Tonight we reserved our hotel rooms! That was pretty exciting because we got them super cheap and it’s a really nice hotel. It’s called the Crowne Plaza. It’s in downtown St. Louis and I’m so excited! I’m hoping that our rooms are way up high so that I can see out the window over the city! Wouldn’t that just be awesome! The trip is in a little over a week and I just can’t wait!

Tonight Amy and I went to try to find a few new outfits to wear while we were up there but of course we didn’t find a thing. I think that maybe we’ll go to Columbia one day next week after we get off work to try and find something. There are so many more stores up there than there are here in Jeff. It seems like we can’t ever find anything around town and you can always find something in Columbia. Although as many of you know I have a ton of clothes and I’m sure I could find something to wear if I tried, but what girl doesn’t want a new outfit! Especially me! I love shopping and getting new things. Nothing else I’m sure we could look for an outfit while we are in St. Louis to wear out at night…

Big Brothers Blog

My brother Matt has started a blog! Here is he link http://bigbrudder24.blogspot.com/. You should stop by and read what he has to say… Leave a comment and maybe even start following him!

It's Happened Again!

As many people know I don’t have very many friends and when I make a new friends I seem to loose them within a years time. It never fails. I usually don’t even know the reason for why my “friends” and I stop talking but it seems to happen a more than not!

And recently it has happened again. You see I have these two friends. These particular friends have recently had a falling out. Although these two friends were no longer speaking to each other I was trying to remain friends with the both of them; however, one of the friends has pretty much stopped talking to me now too.

I have lost too many friends in the past to let this bother me. I have a few good friends that are there no matter what and that’s all that I really need. I know the ones that are there for me will be there to the end.
