June 2005 Archive

I had today off..I can’t believe I just finished a 7 day week. I didn’t do much today, just got a manicure/pedicure. The landscaper came to the house this afternoon and we discussed the layout of the yard. We changed a couple things around. Taylor is already in bed and that is amazing! She went to bed at 8:30!! Alan is reading his book in the other room and I have been looking at peoples pictures at Flickr. I am really bored now.

I decided I wasn’t going to go to Washington for the 10 year reunion in August. I really want to see some of the people that are going since I haven’t seen them since my sophmore year. I moved to Sacramento and that was the last I saw them so I really wanted to go to the reunion. Plane tickets and rental was 1 grand and I just can’t see wasting that kind of money. I am sure I will regret it but that is a lot of damn money. Trust me, I would love to go *cries*

The pool construction has been coming along very smoothly and quickly so far. The plumbers showed up yesterday and installed all the plumbing and the rebar people dropped off the rebar today so I am assuming they will be out this week to get that finished. The next step will be the electricians. They will then be followed by the shot-crete; the concrete base applied before the the pebble-tec.

My schedule for next week looks like I will have the 3rd & 4th off Hopefully he doesn’t change the schedule. I am going to head downstairs and make some dinner. I am starving!!!

Guess who is at my house right now? The pool company!! They started digging the pool and I will start posting pictures in my gallery tonight after work. I am was shocked they actually started a little earlier than expected.

I am friggin tired right now. I have been cleaning the house and raking rock out of the way for the bobcat and I want to go back to bed. Blah.

Here is the newest member of our family, Gizmo!

I had great time celebrating Father’s Day with Alan and Taylor in Flagstaff. We drove thru Sedona on the way home and shopped a little bit. We did a lot of swimming, checking out the town of Flagstaff, and just hanging out enjoying our mini vacation. I got a really pretty purse from a cute store in Sedona too

The day after we got back, the 21st, we went down to the Humane Society and adopted a 6 month old puppy for Taylor. We picked out a Corgi mix and he is very good with Taylor and is surprisingly calm. He just got neutered so right now he is taking it easy. We named him Gizmo

Tonight it rained really hard and it ERASED the pool outline and I am sure we will have to wait longer for the pool company to start digging. Talk about crappy timing They were going to be out here on the 24th to dig the pool.

My boss scheduled me another 6 day work week. One day off AGAIN. I am really sick of this shit. I have to work another 7 days straight before I can have a day off. Alan and I only spend about 30 minutes a day together because our schedules and on Alan’s days off I have to work 8 hours. It really sucks when we can’t make plans for anything. I also told my boss I am going to Washington in August for my reunion and he basically told me I am not getting the time off. He really has no good reason as to why so I plan on looking for another job. He is really dicking me around. Ok. I’m done with that rant.

Honestly, I have been keeping busy and of course working all the damn time I don’t have a lot of time to jump on here and write about my life everyday like I used to and want to. It sucks. I have been working out a little more than I have been too. Tomorrow will be a busy day. Lowe’s are coming out in the morning to install the garage door opener and the exterminator is coming out to spray. Then I plan on working out around 11am and then I work 3-9pm. I am going to get to bed. Its 2:41am. I am going to die if I don’t get some rest.

I have so much to catch up on. I really have no idea where to start. Well, whatever comes to mind first I will share. I need to write Brandon back. I started writing him email and I only finished half of it. It’s still in the draft file. The past few days I have been dealing with deleting viruses off the computer. Everytime I would do a scan I would start deleting and then the virus scan would freeze.:ugh Talk about frustrating! I started getting a million new Icons on my desktop. I got so fed up I deleted over 2 GB of music of the computer and saved all my pictures to disc. I had a memory hog virus of some sorts.

I am happy to say that my boss gove me Sat., Sun., and Mon. off!! Alan, Tay, and I are going to drive up to Flagstaff and spent a couple nights up there. We plan on going to see the famous Meteor Crater out here in AZ and then pick something else out to do. I have to buy a new bathing suit tomorrow too.

Yesterday when I arrived at work I walked up to Starbucks in the store and my girlfriend Quinn gave me a really pretty bracelet that she made! I was really excited and I absolutley love it. I will take a picture but the bracelet is in my bathroom and I don’t want to wake Alan up to get it. Mmm..I know I am missing a lot of things. I guess the pool company will be coming out somewhere around the 24th to start digging. We have to move a lot of rock and some plants so they can get the bobcat into the backyard….and they will be tearing down our block fence too.

Well, I am going to go eat some dinner. I got home from work an hour ago and got Taylor to bed and now I am sitting here starving.
