Something to UP-DATE on!!
so much is going on here..but where to start is the question.
i guess i'll start with the "we no longer have the cute little pug." yeah, we took him back after that weekend i posted about him coming home with us. i liked him alot, but i just didn't wanna have to put in the extra effort of picking him up all the time and carrying him down the stairs just so he can go to the restroom. plus, getting him, he didn't listen well. i know we probably didn't give him enough time to get use to us. besides, Dustin's wife missed the dog, and was happy to see him again. :) which i'm happy they were glad to see him. but we pretty much babysat him that whole weekend. not to replace the doggie, but we now how two kitties, shadow and midnight, brother and sister. both mostly black and very cute. they were born september 17, 2006. so they r still kittens, but they r growing so fast. **awwwww** BTW...i've got pictures of the doggie and also of the kittie cats of course. i still have yet to get the pictures developed but when i do, i'll be sure to post them. :D that is, once i figure out how to hook up the scanner/printer we got with this computer that isn't even out of its box yet. lol oh wait, i can just get the pictures put onto a CD. silly me..HAHAHA
in other news. its not a real job for me but its something that will help stephen and me out a whole lot. i've agreed to help my sister by watching her and her hubbie's kids while they go to work nights. they went in for training and now they r waiting to be called back, so once they do, i'll start watching the kids from 6:30pm till about 3am and might be till 6am (depending on if they get 3 hours of over time). and she has offered me $300 every two weeks. so $600 a month which would help us just pay for rent all together. i got a $150 dollar check from them earlier this week for watching the kids thru their training. so that was all taken care of.
but the biggest hassle of getting there one time was lack of transportation. it sucks too, cuz my car is at my parent's house, dead. :'( *crys* a few weeks ago stephen and i were headed home from kevin and rachel's (my sister and brother-in-law), and my car decides to die on I-70 and adam's dairy. GRRRRRRR good thing we had cell phones! >.< i called my dad and he came and picked us up, plus to see if he could get the car started again. we had to leave it there the night it died and came back the next day to tow it to their (my parents) house. on top of this issue of my car not working (it'll take $350-$400 to fix possibly), his parents have been really nice and let him have back the car for the time being, so he can get back and forth to work till at least my car is up and running again. and i THANK them for that very much!
something they also did that took me by surprise, his parents (on my 23rd birthday january 20th) took me to dinner at red lobster and gave me a birthday card with $25 in it. the thing that made me really happy was at the end of the evening, his mother gave me a hug and kiss on the cheek. i told her and him both thanks for the card, the money and the dinner+cake. it was a nice day even though we had alot of snow that evening. :) :)
in other news, nothing else much to say. the other usual stuff is going on.
oh yeah, also, been playing alot of HERO online lately. its much fun and if u all wanna check it out here is the link www.hero.netgame.com . well, that is it from me for now.

- hung out with sarah (one with chris...). i know i said i wouldn't..but i just can't be a mean person. :-S
- bobbi is getting married in may (may 12th i think)..and i went to try on the style of dress she had picked out. and i look best in the color red instead of blue. :P lol so that'll cost me about $160 (originally $180 dress but with her discount). i'm her matron of honor.
- still trying my best to hang out with friends and have a good time...but some times other stuff gets in the way of that and i'm sorry. :(:(:(:(
- i still need to get blood work done at the lab and i've been to chicken to go. :-S
