Oops!
I always go over and read my blogs to check for spelling mistakes, and lately I've been having to edit more than usual. I guess it's just because I'm typing too fast and not paying attention. I keep using the wrong "homophones." for example: Their, there and they're. That's the main one I always mess up on but I always have to go back and fix it because it drives me crazy lol. I hate when I go on websites or even in books and see typos because I can't change it. Oh well. Well today is my day off, and it's been over a week since my last so I'm going to treat myself to a lazy day. Not to mention I'm not feeling so well from all this working. I'm so exhausted so I might just sleep on and off all day. Josh has to close today, so I most likely won't be able to sleep because usually I can't if he's not home. I woke up late today and really had to force myself to sleep because I'm so use to getting up at 5 a.m everyday. Better get off here and find myself something to eat. :)

Thank you txu lol
Txu is one of the electricity companies here in Dallas and they recently sent their customers out some cash reward cards. It was only $21.00 but hey I work at a cheap clothing store so I finally gave in and bought myself some new clothes. Well nothing much really just a few new shirts. I rarely ever buy anything anymore but I prefer it that way. After WASTING quite a bit of my money from my settlement on ungrateful, unappreciative jerks, I've become a tightwad. LOL. I mean I really hate spending money. I'll go to the mall looking for stuff and I'll leave without absolutely nothing. I think it's a good thing, because it feels really good to have money saved up. Even our taxes we got back, I'm not spending one dime. I've had it for about a month so far and haven't touched it. And then also in April I think we'll be getting our deposit back from txu so that will be even more to save. :) Josh is getting good at saving too but it's harder for him than me. But I definitely understand because I had a first job too and I wanted to buy everything. It just takes a while to get use to. I'm so happy for the both of us, and I never would have thought we would be able to make it on our own. And without him I wouldn't be able to do it, because he's the main bacon maker lol. He does so much for me and it doesn't go unnoticed but I don't show appreciation all the time and I really need to do it more. We're just both always so tired and stressed from work so I don't really go out of my way to show it. June is getting closer and closer and my sister's belly is getting bigger and bigger and I'm so excited! Found a baby book at work today and it's so adorable and it also beats spending $20.00 at Baby's R us rather than $5.00. I need to slow it down though because I don't want to end up buying all this girly stuff and then it turns out they made a mistake and it's a boy. I really hope not because I've found the cutest little things. Well I'm hungry so I'm going to go. Goodbye

Food.
So I sorta have this new obsession with guacamole bean dip. Lol Ever since I made it for the first time for our Christmas party this past December for work, I'm always craving it! It's so good and doesn't require cooking and it's a quick easy snack. And of course I can make it simple with just the beans and the guacamole as the next layer, sour cream as the next and shredded cheese on top. (Not the nasty shredded cheese that you buy already shredded in a bag.) I'm sure not many people read this blog, or any for that matter, but if you are and you have a recipe you think I might like, please feel free to share :) I've been having so much fun learning new recipes. Just a tip, I pretty much only eat chicken and pot roast as far as meat goes. But any other meat recipes are good too because I still gotta be fair and make Josh food he likes as well. Poor him he always gets stuck eating chicken. lol Not that he doesn't really mind but I'm sure it gets old after a while. :)

Malea Ann, not only my sister but my best friend.
Can't wait to see my seester! She's getting so cute and chunky... Hurry up June and get here already so that I can spoil baby and sissy. It's probably the hardest being apart from her even more so than my parents and brothers because aside from Josh she truly is my best friend and I love her so much! We've been through so much together and even through all the name calling and all the fights, I don't know what I would do without her. So even though you don't read this Malea Ann, I love you very much and you mean so much to me! More than words can say. I can't wait to see you so I can squeeze you! lol

So much exciting news here lately!!!
I'm going to have another niece! I'm so excited, now I can start spoiling like crazy.
She decided to have the baby shower after baby is born, that way she doesn't find out
the gender before she's born. And she wants it co-ed so we'll have a nice big bbq since she'll be a summer baby :)
So I'm really hoping Josh and I will make it there and might actually stay there for my birthday so we can have fun setting off our own fireworks.
Also, we plan on getting out of Texas by the time both our leases are up, so we can't wait! It's not a for sure thing about the location, but at least we'll be back on the west coast and closer to all of our family.
On a less positive note, this weather here right now is terrible. The roads have been complete ice for the last 2 days. So I missed the first day of work, as well as many other people. We've had rolling blackouts, but at least we were both at work when that happened. It made for a very boring day at work though. The power went out 4 times and it took about 15 to 20 minutes for it to come back on and then another 20 minutes or more just for the registers to come back up. I hate when that happens because then the stupid customers who go out in this for no reason get impatient and want a discount. Well you should have stayed home. Not our fault you decided to come here. If you were smart, you wouldn't be putting your life or others in danger and you would stay at home like a normal person where it's safe and warm. But anyway we closed at 3 the first day and 5 yesterday. I'll just be glad when the sun comes out and melts it away. Of course, it's supposed to snow anyway, but that's better than the ice. That's about it for my update. :)

We are SOOOOOO excited!!! Went to Ikea yesterday and bought new furniture and it's being delivered today. FINALLY our OWN brand new furniture! Got a love seat, chair and coffee table and 2 end tables for not even 400 bucks. I loveee that store and I think I want to move in so I can use all the different kitchens lol. I know it's just furniture but hey I'm a weirdo and enjoy even looking at washers and dryers. haha. Even Josh is just as excited as I am about it, and that's pretty surprising. It's not much furniture, but it's just the 2 of us and we hardly have people over because we're usually working but if anytime in the future we want another love seat or something we'll just head on over to Ikea again :)
So I've changed my playlist. GLEE. I'm a little obsessed with the show. Even though a lot of the songs I don't know, I've heard the originals and I love to hear the way they sing it. Not the type of show I thought I would be interested in but after the first time I was hooked. Josh got me GLEE karaoke for Christmas for the wii and I love it. He won't play it with me, what a bum, but that's okay. At least I have a game out of all the games we have that I can actually sit there and play for more than 5 minutes and not lose interest right away.
Well I should probably eat some lunch and clean up a bit so the house doesn't look a hot mess when they deliver the furniture. :) Goodbye!
