YEAH, I KNOW I HAVE BEEN SO BAD FOR THE PAST WEEK AND A HALF ABOUT NOT WRITING! I JUST HAD A BLOCK OF SOME SORT. I KNOW I HAVE PLENTY TO RANT ABOUT.
WELL, COLLEEN AND I HAVE JOINED A LOCAL GYM. WE'LL SEE HOW THAT GOES. WE'VE ALREADY GONE ONCE. MY FIRST VISIT, I WALKED 1 1/2 MILES ON THE TREADMILL, AND BIKED NEARLY 4 MILES. THE STAIRSTEPPER IS HARDLY ANYTHING TO WRITE ABOUT. I REALLY DIDN'T GET INTO IT. I'LL HAVE TO WORK UP TO THAT ONE I SUPPOSE. I THINK I WILL TAKE THE COURSE WITH THE PERSONAL TRAINER TO LEARN HOW TO CORRECTLY USE ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT. I'M EXCITED. I SIGNED UP THE HUBBY TOO. I HOPE THAT WILL KEEP US MOTIVATED. LAST FRIDAY COLLEEN AND I WALKED A MILE SINCE IT WAS GETTING DARK OUTSIDE. SO THAT WILL LOG ME AT: 14.5 MILES WALKED. I AM HOPING THAT I WILL REMEMBER TO LOG MY MILES. I THINK I WILL START MY PRESCRIPTION SOON TO AID IN THE WEIGHT LOSS.
LAST FRIDAY, DEJAH, JESS, CHRISTY, NIKKI, AND MYSELF ALL WENT OUT TO DINNER AT APPLEBEES, HAD SOME DRINKS, THEN WENT TO THE RED LION FOR SOME KARAOKE. WE PICKED OUT 5 SONGS FOR JESS AND DEJAH TO SING, BUT THEY NEVER GOT CALLED UP IN THE TIME THAT WE WERE THERE. SO THEN WE ALL WENT BACK TO MY HOUSE FOR A GAME OF SCENE IT. THAT LASTED UNTIL ABOUT 1 AM. HUBBY WAS AT THE CASINO UNTIL 3AM. I WAS ALREADY IN BED BY THE TIME HE GOT HOME.
WELL, I ALSO GOT TO HELP SPEND HUBBY'S CASINO WINNINGS THE WEEK PRIOR ON 2 PAIRS OF WORKS SHOES, 1 NIKE PAIR, AND 1 ADIDAS PAIR. THEN WE BOUGHT A DIGITAL CAMERA FOR ME!! I GOT THE CANON POWERSHOT A610, 5MP. I LIKE IT! I HAD TO HAVE DEJAH THE PHOTO COMPUTER WHIZ SHOW ME HOW TO DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING ON MY CPU, BUT I'M HAVING A HARD TIME SHRINKING THEM IN SIZE TO FIT ON MYSPACE! I'LL HOPEFULLY FIGURE IT OUT SOON.
WELL, THE OTHER NEWS IS THAT MY GRAMMA STILL ISN'T SPEAKING TO ME. I KNOW SHE IS STILL MAD AT ME FOR DITCHING HER IN HER WHEELCHAIR IN THE MALL COUPLE MONTHS AGO. HUBBY SAID SHE TOLD HIM SHE'S NOT MAD AT ME, I TOLD HIM SHE IS SINCE SHE WON'T CALL TO TALK TO ME DIRECTLY. SHE TOLD HIM TO TELL ME THAT MY MOM IS REALLY REALLY SICK AGAIN. OH WELL, NOT MY PROBLEM. THEN OUT OF THE BLUE LAST WEEKEND, I WAS UP AROUND 4AM AND HUBBY WAS TOO, WHILE WE'RE BOTH TRYING TO GO BACK TO SLEEP, HE MENTIONS THAT GRAMMA FELL OFF THE BACKPORCH, AND SHATTERED HER NOSE, AND HAS 2 BLACK EYES. LIKE I SAID, "SHE'S STILL MAD AT ME." IF SHE WEREN'T, SHE WOULDA CALLED TO TELL ME. I KNOW WE'RE BOTH STUBBORN. SHE ALWAYS EXPECTS EVERYONE TO COWER TO HER. WHEN HER BOYFRIEND WAS IN THE HOSPITAL, AND HIS DAUGHTER CAME DOWN FROM CANADA, GRAMMA DIDN'T LIKE THE FACT THAT HIS DAUGHTER SHAVED HIS HEAD, AND BITCHED HER OUT THEN TELLING THE DAUGHTER THAT SHE HAD COMPLETE POWER OF ATTORNEY OVER HIM. WHEN SHE TOLD THAT TO ME ON THE PHONE, I TOLD GRAMMA NOT TO THROW THAT SHIT IN HER FACE! SOOO, WHAT HAPPENED RECENTLY? UM....HIS DAUGHTER AND SON HAD GOTTEN HER POWER OF ATTORNEY REVOKED, AND THEY HAVE POWER NOW. HAHAHAHAHA! I TOLD GRAMMA NOT TO TEASE AND TAUNT THEM WITH HER "POWER." SO I GUESS SHE'S FURIOUS ABOUT THAT. WHATEVER.
WORK HAS BEEN SLOW NOW THAT VALENTINE'S IS OVER. NOW WE CAN CONCENTRATE ON SPRING CLEANING. I SENT IN OUR MOVADO WATCHED TO BE APPRAISED. SO NOW I JUST NEED TO HAVE ANOTHER ONE OF MY DIAMOND RINGS, AND MY OMEGA CHAIN DONE FOR MY PERSONAL ARTICLES POLICY ON MY INSURANCE. NOW THAT I HAVE A DIGITAL CAMERA, I CAN TAKE INVENTORY ON EVERYTHING.
TONIGHT, HUBBY AND I WERE GONNA GO SEE A MOVIE. AS WE'RE DRIVING, HE TELLS ME TO GO THE LONG WAY AND TAKE A LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. THEN HE POINTS TO A SLEEK, BLACK LEXUS GS300. OOOOH, SLOBBER! IT WAS A 2000 LEXUS. WE DROVE IT, AND HUBBY ASKED IF I WANTED IT. OF COURSE I WANT A LEXUS, BUT I HAVE TO THINK REALISTICALLY. I'D RATHER GET MORE OUT OF DEBT, THAN GET DEEPER! I TOLD HIM I'D REALLY LIKE TO EXPERIENCE NOT HAVING TO HAVE A CAR PAYMENT ONE DAY. THAT WAS THE WHOLE REASON OF US BUYING 2 CARS THAT WERE ONLY A YEAR OLD. I HAVE MY '01 TOYOTA CAMRY, AND HE HAS HIS '01 HONDA ACCORD. WE'VE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF BOTH, AND I WILL NEVER BUY AN AMERICAN MADE CAR. JAPANESE WILL LAST US LONGER. PLUS TOYOTA MAKES LEXUS, SO MY CAR IS LIKE THE COUSIN OF THE LEXUS. I'M HAPPY. MAYBE LATER I'LL HAVE A NEWER LEXUS ANYWAYS. I HAVE TO ADMIT IT WAS PRETTY SWEET!
I GUESS I WILL GO TO BED, AND BE DONE WITH THIS ENTRY SO COLLEEN CAN READ IT AND GO TO BED TOO! MORE LATER!
