Big Success

So the party was a success - everyone stayed late, in fact a couple of my sisters stayed until 3:00 a.m.!! Wonderboy was there and cute and sweet as ever. Too bad he's back in Indy now. He'll be home Easter weekend though, so I suspect we'll see eachother then. This weekend I have no plans which is gooood! I need to start getting things ready for Easter as I'll be the one hosting Easter Brunch. I am making homade Mac-n-Cheese and meatballs and buying assorted bread and rolls and my sisters have been assigned various other food items so it should be a big feast, I am looking forward to it! My latest project is rescuing/adopting a boxer. I filled out an application and now they are doing a home check tomorrow and then they try to find a boxer that is best suited for our family. I am really excited about it. I've always wanted a boxer, I just think they are the cutest dogs! Although they are known to be very hyper, I am going to be sure to request one that is on the more calm side. I like the idea of having a bigger dog around though, I feel safer, and especially for playing outside in the summer, I won't have to drag Kennedy in the house everytime I want to run in for a second to get something. I never let her outside for a second if I'm not there. But I'll feel more at ease with a big dog in the yard with her. I will be sure to get the ole "Beware of Dog" sign for the yard! The cost is 250.00 which is kinda steep but at least it's for a dog I really want. So that's all for now I guess. We'll see how the home visit goes, they are bringing a boxer over to "visit" so I am excited about that!

I'm back and it's Party Time!

So, I am throwing a little shin-dig for my family and close friends. Just an end of winter, hellloooo spring par-tay! I bought some cute tropical looking things to throw in the basement, enough liquor for a football team and some snacks to have on hand...sounds like the perfect party to me! I am actually really looking forward to it. I don't know if "wonderboy" will be there or not, he was supposed to be but I haven't really talked to him much this week. That is neither here nor there, I love to entertain so I will be having fun no matter what. And I told everyone to wear their summer-y clothes so we could get in the mood! Should be a fun weekend. And I MUST make it to the gym one day this weekend. I am still going... not as much as I should be but probably 2-4 times a week depending on the week....well, actually probably not 4 in a while, so, we'll agree on a happy medium of 3 ALRIGHT 2!!!!!!!!!!! SHEESH! I am looking forward to getting out of here today and getting the weekend started. Hope all is well with everyone....if anyone is even reading this thing anymore!!!

Crabby Patty

Yeah....so I think it is worse to LEAVE this God awful state and realize what you're missing by going to Florida! It was b-e-a-u-tiful in Florida and now we're here back in this mess. I honestly have to ask myself what I am thinking...."what are you thinking?!??!" So we had a great time in Florida, I need to spend all my winters there...what kind of job can you get that allows that? I also realize that I need to travel much more, it's just so fun packing up and going to a completely different place surrounded by different people, having a different routine....it's just good for ya!

Besides being crabby about the weather, I have been having some car issues that started out sounding very bad but have dwindled down to just being the radiator. The bad part is, the guy who sold me the car assured me it was under warranty till 70,000 and it only has 34,000 miles now....well, to make a long, annoying, painful story very short, it's not under warranty and so basically I am screwed. But the car is fixed and I am going to pick it up today...on the other side of the world....somewhere near Nelly Land.

In addition to the weather and the car....there is the "boy"....."boy wonder" would be a good name for him because I am always WONDERING what the hell he's thinking! He was so sweet while I was in Florida calling everyday, so comforting and helpful about my car and telling me "oh, we'll take care of it, I'll help you" etc. Then I get home and it's like he barely has 5 minutes to talk to me. I dont' think i have the patience to try to figure it out. Either you want to date someone or not. I may be a bit bitter, or just old but I am not in the mood for the guessing game! I will be making plans this weekend and if he wants to see me, he'll have to catch up with me!

There are other things I am crabby about as well but I think I've done enough complaining for one post. The good thing is that I'm getting a haircut tonight so that's always fun, I love going to the salon! I'm going to change it up, just a bit, I can't stand wearing it the same for too long!

Thanks to all who kept reading while I was MIA!
