Ready

I worked my first night last night - it was fine. I accomplished some good knitting! Tonight I plan on studying and working some more on my July Felted Bag.

I placed some items on ebay a few days ago and low and behold I sold them and made back almost what I spent! WOO-HOO. I think I'm going to join Heritage Makers . I want a canon powershot digital . . . I can't wait to get this. I have a few more items to sell off first then I will be ready to get my new small digital camera. What I like about this one is the size, about the same size as my cell phone. Here is a picture of the camera and a little blub about it.

Canon - PowerShot 10.0-Megapixel Digital ELPH Camera - Silver
Model: SD790 IS - 3x optical/4x digital/12x total zoom; 3" PureColor LCD II TFT-LCD monitor; DIGIC III image processor; slim, lightweight design; PictBridge direct-print capability
Best Buy has the camera on sale this week, only $179- not bad but of course I don't have enought funds to purchase it and it only goes on sale about every 3-4 months. SOOOOOO . . . . I will be waiting from a distance lol. SOON!

Stupid is as a stupid Does

WTF! I can't believe in over 2 years I haven't overdrafted my checking account. Oh and not just by 20 or 30 bucks no! not me, I paid something online and totally forgot I paid it $460 bill! OH SHIT! then I wrote out a check and that bounced too. WTF!!! I have been doing sooooo wellllllll for the past 2 years and then for once this week, I bounced BIG TIME. Maybe it was the stress of 2 yes 2 big test, starting a new job, oh and other crap. But I guess CRAP happens and I will get back on my scheduling of paying bills and NOT do this again!

So Pennie's tip for the day?! WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING!

Just another Manic Sunday

OH what a nice time I had this past Friday/Saturday. I relaxed with my girlfriend, ate great food, oh and did I say I relaxed! Plus I went to a presentation on Heritage Makers, I'm actually thinking about becoming a Personal Publishing Consultant. The products are awesome, little time is needed to complete projects and its virtually ground floor opportunity. I'm just going to leave it at I'm highly thinking about it and it may come into play after this semester.

Now, I'm going to catch up on ALL the laundry, pick up the house, work on my math homework, study my micro notes, and celebrate DFD birthday today. Just a few things to do.

Hope you all had a great weekend! Have a great week and remember time is what you make of it and there is 24 hours in day.

Wrestling Champ


Lit C placed 3rd this weekend at a wrestling tournment! WHOO-HOO!
Great job Lit C - I'm so proud of you!


Past week

I passed my first Microbiology test with a 85%! I'm so proud of myself - it is a hard class. I have to more upcoming tests this week, wed and fri. I'm really starting to focus more on rewriting, reading, and preparing more. I can do it!

Its my fare well party at work tonight! WOO-HOO. I'm sad to be leaving my great co-workers, happy to be leaving the management that treats their employees like a dime a dozen, and grateful for the time I spent with the residents.

Hubby and I went out last night for a romantic dinner - it was yummy - we argued of course - but the make up was OUTSTANDING! I'm lucky to have a great man, even thou he can be an ass!

Count down to Friday the 20th is officially started! I'm looking forward to a nite away, to relax, breathe and refocus on myself.

I'm here!

where or where has the time gone? I have been so busy, I so miss bloggin, reading blogs, knitting, basketweaving, and scrapbooking. I need to set some time for the things I love to do. I have decided that for one hour a day I'm going to do a craft and at the end of the nite I'm going to blog, read blogs, post something somewhere. I have to start enjoying some of the things I have given up since the girls and school.

Date nites are now date breakfasts - which is good but I'm hoping to go out this weekend with my hubby! Maybe a movie or something.

Next weekend the 20th I'm going with my BFF! to a convention for her homebased business Hertige Makers and I'm planning on hanging out in the hotel, KNIT'n and chillin! no children, no books, no worries.

I start my new job on the 27th, I'm excited about starting a new chapter in my aide work. I'm hoping I will be able to spend more one on one with my person - plus midnites allows for some study time which I could always use.
