Posted in life on Aug 10th, 2011
Vacation time sucks sometimes. The reason for this is because it has to end! I’ve just enjoyed having 11 days off but now my fun time is over. My vacation ended yesterday and I went back to work. It wasn’t really bad, but I did kind of not want my vacation to end. But… I [...]
Quiet weekend
Posted in life on Jul 15th, 2011
Well I don’t think we’re going to have a real exciting weekend around here this weekend. My husband is on call this weekend so we are pretty much stuck close to home and I’m in quite a bit of pain these days so I don’t feel like doing to much of anything. I did go [...]

I spent a ton of money
Posted in life on Feb 21st, 2011
On Saturday my husband got this brilliant idea that we should go pick up some groceries. Well some groceries turned in to well over $200 worth. I swear to god the only thing we left in the store was some revitol products. I think we picked up everything else. As we were walking around the [...]
