Figured it Out

So all this week my eyes have been burning and I thought it was because I was so TIRED. Which I am. But its from people smoking. They are smoking in front of a closed door, but there is smoke still coming through it. I don't know what to do. There used to be barricades up, so that smokers wouldn't get so close to the door, but they took it down on monday, hince the eyes.
I am getting a headache and feel like crap. Which sucks, cause this morning I felt so alive and happy. Now I am not!

Sleepy

For some reason I couldn't sleep on Saturday night. ANd I have continued getting minimal sleep since then. I am so tired, my eyes are burning. It is crazy and I don' t like it.

New Hair Cut.

So I am still not to sure on how to make the pictures look better with the text. But here are pictures of my new haircut. LOVE IT.

It's Trash!

So Yesterday a gentleman(and this is loosely used) came to the desk to check in. He laid a cigarette butt onto the counter. He then picked up a mint, and picked up the butt with the wrapper. I gave him his pass, and he holds his hand out. I look at it, and then his face, He goes "it's trash". I wanted to say Do I look like a trash can? But instead I gave him a dirty look and grabbed the trash can from beneath the desk and held it underneath his hand. DISGUSTING.
I just don't understand people. He really wanted me to touch something that he had put in his mouth and throw it away for him. He just assumed that I would take his trash. There is a trash can that he could access literally like three feet away. I really cannot believe that he wanted me to take the cigarette butt.

Biggest Loser... Sorta

I decided that I would start a weight loss challenge for my friends and I. So far there are four of us, well six if you count the boyfriends, who are going to join.(cause we are mean and going to make them.) It starts on Monday, with our first weigh in. It is going to go until the day before my Birthday. We will weigh in each week. We will all contribute ten dollars into the pot. And then the person who loses the most weight, wins the pot!

I am so excited. Hopefully this will motivate me to goto the gym even more. But I hope that the weightlifting I am about to start doens't prohibit weight loss!

Workouts

I have been going to the gym for a few weeks. Kinda sporadically, but at least twice a week. I would just do the elliptical. I have now decided that I will actually lift weights. Yes I know this is funny. So monday was the first day. I think I did okay, Oscar thinks differently. I think it went well. Today is the second day! I am doing a 3 day split workout. I like to pretend I know what that is. But I don't really. According to Oscar I am working different parts of my body on different days. I am sore, but only in the shoulders, and Oscar says I should be sore in my triceps aslo, but I am not. He says I need more weight then, and I was like did you see me struggling, I highly doubt I can add more.

Wonderful Weekend

I had a wonderful weekend with Vero and Ellie. We had so much fun. We didn't get them until friday at 11pm, tho. But that is okay.

Friday
We made a bed for the girls on the floor. Ellie decided to come in our bed. So Oscar went on the floor with Vero. At about 5 am, Vero heard a noise, crawled onto me, and goes "I sleep with you?" I decided Oscar was lonely and went to the floor, and then told him we all fit on the bed, and we joined them in bed.

Saturday
We woke up and had cereal, and maybe a little wrestling. We then played some wii, and showered and got ready to take Oscar to work. The girls and I drove Oscar to work, and picked up Jamie. We then went to Megan's house, to use the potty, and pick her up. Then we got ICE CREAM! I got playdoh icecream. Ellie got mint chocolate chip, and Vero got Orange sherbert(its what she wanted) She took one bite and didn't like it anymore. So I shared mine with her, except she didn't want the ice cream, she only wanted the play doh bits. We then walked Megan home, and drove Jamie home, then drove us home.
We took the dog out and played with him. Watched Happily N'ever, while I made mac and cheese. Then we went to petsmart, but decided we didn't like anything there, so to target we went. Where we bought Auddy a new bed. And hit the one spot for gifts for the girls. We then brought the bed back and tried to make Auddy like it. It was loads of fun. He will only nap in it, he still sleeps with us. We then once again played WII. And the girls also played hide the eggs, while I checked my email. We then went and picked up Oscar. We all went to bed in the bed.
Sunday.
We woke up and Oscar made us pancakes. We then watched a Igor. And decided we would go to Starved Rock. It was lots of fun, but really muddy. Also the river was flooded. The picnic area looked like a lake, you could just see the roof of the top of cover. Auddy came with us, so everyone took turns holding his leash. Vero was the least mud covered cause Oscar carried her most of the time.
Oscar and I are planning on going back, when we have more time, and less little ones, so we can walk further.

VA

Here is a picture of my grandmother drinking, last time I was home. This is the only picture I took. Isn't she cute?

Va, Oscar's mommy said you look so young!

Shadow Dog

So last night as I am laying in bed. Auddy growls. I think he is growling cause the tenants are getting their laundry. But then I notice he is not looking that way. He stands up, and sniffs, leans closer to the edge of the bed sniffs again, sticking his nose way out over the bed. I am very confused about what is going on. He then starts moving and going into his playful bow. I realize that he has just tried to play with his SHADOW. It was so cute.

Fish and Interviews

For those who know me. You know that I pretty much refuse to eat fish. I don't know why. I just got it into my head that I do not like fish, unless it is broiled sword fish from the cape.(yes I am picky, or rather was) Oscar decided that we were going to try fish. So that I could form a real opinion on it. So last night he made me some Talapia. And I LOVED IT! So apparently I am a fish eater now.

I am going (hopefully) to an interview to be a teachers assistant. It all depends on if I can get off work, and if they will let me apply without an original of my highschool diploma. I have to write them and ask. I have transcripts from both colleges I attended so I hope that is enough. Otherwise I cannot interview. Here is hoping I am able, and I can get that job! It will help me for school since the school can just come in and observe me in the classroom setting.

MIlwaukee. We had fun

We had so much fun this past saturday and sunday. We, and by we I mean I decided since Oscar had the weekend off, that we should go away. So we pricelined a hotel and dropped the dog off, and away we went.
As soon as we arrived we drove straight through to the Lakefront Brewery, to go on a tour. It was so much fun. For 6 dollars you get 24 ounces of beer, a tour, a pint glass, and a whole lot of fun. We then preceded to find our hotel, which funny enough ended up a Hilton. We then went for a walk in the rain, took a nap, and then decided on a place for dinner.
We decided to goto a place called Swig. It was very cool. The walls were made of wood but it was like in pieces and some were sticking out real far and others not. They were all different sizes. It was neat. Dinner was good as well. We had three small plates. We had asiago and artichoke dip, cajun chicken skewers, and hummus and pita. It was all very yummy. We then had a chocolate cookie cake with vanilla bean ice cream for dessert.
On sunday we went to the public market, where I had cheese curds for the first time. It was good. It just tasted like cheese tho. We bought some cheese curds, crackers, and cheese spread. We also had custard for breakfast, I had blue moon, and called Joe to brag. We also bought pig ears for Auddy. Spices for us. They mixed spices together to form different seasonings we got three, plus pink sea salt. Just cause I wanted pink salt. We also bought some chocolates. It was fun.
We then went to the restaurant next door for brunch. The best part of the brunch(well i didn't like the taste of it, but it was cool) was the bloody mary. It came with a whole lot of garnishes. There was a pickle, mushroom, olive, meat stick, and a shrimp(I left this part off) and the these strands of mozzerlla that filled the top of the cup. It was so funny. It also came with a shooter of beer. (Pictures to come)
We then went to Discovery World, which is kinda like COSI. Except that a lot of the exhibits were not fully put together or else just not working, so that was kind of a let down. But I did get to pet a sting ray and some other long big fish thing, so that was fun.
All in all we are planning to go back in the summer, and hopefully it won't be raining, so we can walk around more.

Maybe

Well I think maybe that I got all of my stuff on time. I guess I will find out once they send me an acceptence letter. So hopefully in 24 days, I start my next round of schooling.

Nervous

I am completely hoping the mailmen drops off a letter from the Embassy Suites to NTEC today. Today is the last day they can receive the recommendations and stuff, if I want to start march 30th. WHich I do. My former employer finally emailed me and said that they sent it this past monday which means it should have been there by now. Even tho Nicole sent mine on the 26th from the carolinas and it is there. So I don't know if I believe it. Here is hoping. If not I won't be able to start til June 15th. I so want to start this chapter of my life, and I am extrememly worried that the letter is not going to get there. I can probably say that it is not there. Which sucks. Boo
I am also worried cause Oscar is at the dentist today. He has been having a horrible tooth ache. I hope he is okay. I don't like doctors you know.

Tests done.

So I took my tests. They were not fun. And I suck at grammer, in case you hadn't noticed. I took the first one in three hours, and then had to wait around with nothing to do for the second one. They started the second one about a half hour late, but I finished in 45 minutes which is about 3 questions per minute. So hopefully I did okay on it. We shall find out in 6 weeks or so.
In the first test session I got yelled at for signing my name on the paper before they told us. The lady was like you are going to be a teacher you should know better. HOW RUDE.

Itso

So Sunday was spent doing five loads of laundr, Oscar washing the dishes, and me picking up all the trash, and organizing our "important" papers. Then we went shopping at Target. And bought these new storage thingys. We are going to add more to it, but this is it for now.

New Bedspread

I finally put a new bedspread on it. Isn't it exicting?
