New look and not so good look :(

Not sure about my new layout because I wanted something brighter, trying to stay away from the black but I really thought this one was cute... and I'm too lazy and tired to look through any others... Still working on it though. I have a horrible horrible heat rash and I'm not very happy about it because I want to be in the sun so bad but it's so horrible that I have welts on my legs :( I don't know why my skin has been so sensitive to it this year, but I think I might have an allergic reaction to the tanning oil I used and also when I was little I was allergic to my own sweat so that might have something to do with it. Well gotta work in the am, goodnight!

Babysitting

Tonight I got some baby time in :) A girl I work with is from Brooklyn and she and her husband live here with their 2 kids and don't have any family here. They wanted a night out together, so they went to a show and asked if I would watch the kiddos and how could I decline. A 2 year old boy and a 4 month old girl, no problem! :) They were so good for me! Hayden is their little boys name and Halani is their little girls name. They are both just so adorable. Hayden is the smartest little boy for his age. Here's one of his and Josh's conversations. Josh- "It's hot today." Hayden- "I know, tell me about it man." Hayden was not very thrilled with us or his parents when it came time to leave. They asked him if he had fun and he kept saying no. lol Although I know he did. He was happy the whole time, had the wii and the xbox all to himself. He said he wanted to stay here with us but Josh has to work in the morning and we are so ready for sleep. Midnight is not normal for us. lol

Well so far we have put quite a bit of money into the car that we shouldn't have had to. Especially since we paid extra so that these things would be taken care of, but they weren't. But such is life, I guess.
Started out with the dash lights, that was $200 and we got a bose stereo for $40 off ebay and then $150 to get it installed. There have been a few other things that we've fixed up also and still lots more to do.
Have to get the axles replaced, which is a quite a bit of saving.
So hopefully we can get it done sooner than later, and sell it in the future.
We shall see.
Well other than that, not much has been going on. We had 40% off this week and I did a lot more shopping then I had hoped for. I always hope that nothing will fit me so I can just return it all and get my money back. lol yes I'm cheap, I hate spending money! lol I like to pay my bills and then pretend I have no money at all! Which is usually the case anyway. Didn't really do much shopping for myself, mostly Apollo. I'm getting so excited for their visit, I can't wait! Have lots of fun things planned while they are here.
Well it's 10:00 and I'm so sleepy already so I better get off here.

Birthday girl

Happy 1 year anniversary of being 23 to me :) Just sitting here in my clean house with nothing to do. Waiting for Josh to get home from work. He requested the day off but his manager is rude and didn't accept his request. Anyway. When he gets off we are going to eat with his Dad, Mom and sister. Although I don't think his Dad knows it's my birthday. lol Then his dad wants to spend some time with just his kiddos so I will come back home and my cousin Chrissy and maybe my brother Kenny are coming over and we are going to eat pizza and watch family home videos. Sounds like a great birthday to me :)

Excuse the messiness of my blog :) I'm trying to change it and I'm doing it all off this template generator so it takes a while... and I accidentally deleted our picture so I guess that just gives me an excuse to put up some new ones :)

Oregon Trip

I don't feel like posting much because I'm still exhausted from the trip but just a quick update. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed ourselves. Josh is really considering moving there next summer and we even found some really nice new apartments we really like. There are also some others but since they are housing we will be making too much to be eligible. But it would be nice because these ones in particular don't even allow residents to smoke! How awesome that would be. Wouldn't have to worry about smelling the worst smell in the entire world! Oh well though, it is very hard to find nice apartments in Hermiston that aren't a million years old so I'm good with our other option. :) My nephew is the most adorable little boy ever and my niece is such a beautiful little girl. I can't wait to see my sister again in a little more than a month. I have so much planned for when they come. Wild Island/Wild waters, Tahoe of course, Jump man jump, chuck e cheese, and MAYBE boomtown but he is too little so we'll probably rule that one out. We are going to have a blast! :)

Vacation :)

Getting so excited but nervous! We have our trip to Oregon in just a few more days. And Malea is the only one that we told so it's a surprise for everyone else :) We can't take our car, because our mechanic told us it won't be good on it there and back considering how many miles are on it so we are going to be good and listen and going to go ahead and get a rental. Extra money we didn't plan on spending but at least we will be in a good car :) I'm really hoping this cold will be gone by our trip, mine tend to last a week or so. Started out with a sore throat, yesterday I was really achy and today my eyes and nose are running like crazy. So I'm also hoping Josh doesn't catch it because he's going to be driving and that would just be miserable for him. Well I better get going, my store manager is moving and we are all meeting at Coconut Bowl for some fun :) Have a good night!
