19 July 2009 ~ Sunday

Dan arrived bright and early with 711 doughnuts! Blueberry and chocolate glazed! he installed the carpet, done a great job cutting out for the wall, of course the carpet was two foot short off fitting both rooms, but it covers what I need it to. It's been sitting in the garage for over two years now, so I'm amazed it even unrolled, but sure makes a difference in the garage feeling bigger. He even cut the back grass and de-weeded the drive way for me. (Happy Face Here)

I told him I had to get my Ribbon Fairies and ATC card made this AM, long before He came over. Went to the Library for the Rebels Junk meeting. Busy busy, I did manage to get one page made. Tiff Tiff's birthday! We exchanged ATC cards.

Dan brought KFC back with him to finish the carpet. Then we watched a movie...The Duchess. That concludes my NetFlix trial subscription! No more movies until I get the house organized again.

Overall it's been a pleasant day.

18 July 2009 ~ Saturday #2

128 feet, this is where I took my break!

18 July 2009 ~ Saturday

OK, so I get in at two thirty and Gizzy wants to go outside and play at 4:30...ugggg!

Outter Banks, North Carolina Trip~
Are we going, are we not? Are we going, are we not? FB Randy and he cancelled as he wasn't getting any sleep either, only he didn't contact Tonia. I managed to get up at 7:30, showered and almost dressed by the time Tonia showed up at 8! We figured we could go without Randy! but she calls him and talks him into going.

Meetup in Elizabeth City. He picks us up, we get over to 58? and it's bumper to bumper all the way, in both directions, only our's was moving at 45 MPH, whereas their's wasn't! Lucky us! Lucky Us! ...until we get to the left to turn and head towards Duck, Bumper to Bumper all the way to the lighthouse!

The Currituck Beach Light Station...consisting of 214 steps, yes I did make it all the way to the top...eventually...after my five minute break just before the last set of stairs. But they waited for me.

We can check that one off of the been there done that list! We stopped and had lunch and headed towards the Bodie Island Light House. Took a while but we made it.

Couldn't climb this one (note the big disappiontment in my tone!)but we got some nice pictures! We then headed back home, when we lucked out again and was going againt the vacationers who were practically stopped for the entire drive back till the Elizabeth City turn off. Never make that Trip on a Saturady. Overall a great trip!

Did I mention on the way that I saw a baby bear along the NC highway! Turned around to get a pic, but off course it was gone by then. Then I also saw a deer with her baby while headed towards Duck.

So I get home and find out I had left my phone home...like this is something I usually notice! Left it home on Friday also! Dan is irate! Tells me he met someone else and guess what: Dan, Dan broke up with me! AGAIN! YipEE! What Ever!
But he's still planning to come over in the morning and put the carpet down in the kitchen, because he's just my friend and loves me, but doesn't want to marry me...blah blah blah

17 July 2009 ~ Friday

Friday night crop in Cradock!

Talked to Dan while at the church, told him my plans for the next day.

Tiff texted me about ten...let's go to Stooges! We'll be home by one...
Yeh right!

We, went, we got home at two thirty!

16 July 2009 ~ Thursday

Finally mailed the first set of taxes off! Not sure why the didn't go out in October.

Resturant week in Norfolk, so the HRS Group met at Bodega on Granby Street. So I just walked over after work. Ribs and potatoes! Not bad, and the company was pretty good also.

15 July 2009 ~ Wednesday

Today is Beth's birthday! DQ Cake! mmm good.

Went to the Sandler Center in VB for Why Not Wednesdays! After working till almost six! But I did make it! I signed up for both groups! There were about 25 people there. Titus finally got to meet ME! at least! I pointed out most of the rest of the group...the one's I could name any how.

David was there also with his own little group.

Weather was wonderful, a cool breeze most of the evening.

14 July 2009 ~ Tuesday

I should be working on Taxes!

What did Gizzy do, besides of coure Poo!
I'm pretty shure that the tray was inside the cage and cage was not touching anything when I left home!

mmmm...tray in the middle of the floor, covered n poo, and the with the bedspread she had a chew, with you what ever shaw I do?

13 July 2009 ~ Monday

Scrap booking at Jason's was cancelled so Tiff and SheriKay came to Mama's!

Mama very tired. So the girls scrapped and played with the the doggies!

12 July 2009 ~ Sunday

so now we have to run down the Blvd to a new place called WannaBe's! We had so much fun! And yes, we ALL got up and sang karaoke. Tiff was even supposed to come join us until she realized that she had Stella in the backseat of the car! So you would have assumed she would have gone home and gone to bed! Right...more later!

So we had a fun time. lot's of pictures to post on the website! at closing time we of course had to follow up with breakfast at Hilltop, at a local place I think it's called Rick's.

I finally got home at 4:12 am...the Sunday paper was waiting! I only thought my child had been home in bed...but noooo, I go online to find out she had only gotten home about ten minutes before I did!

I finlly got to bed about 5:30 and Gizzy decided we should all get up and go outside bright and early! I did manage to crawl back into bed and sleep till 10:45 or so, that's as long as she could hold out!

So about the time I'm ready to crawl back into bed tiff call's and say's come have luch with us! Dan call's to confirm dinner tonight so I tell him 8PM! It's Sunday, when do we ever eat earlier than that?

So about seven he shows up, I've just gone back to bed for about half and hour when he comes in and getts pissed because

1-his dinner is not even started: like I haven't learned not to bother on that one until his ass is actually here!

2-He is pissed because I was out with my friends until four in the morning!

Dan broke up with me! AGAIN! YipEE! What Ever!

11 July 2009 ~ Saturday

The day that never ended...
Started out by meeting Tonia early in morning, and going to Lone Star Lake in Suffolk with her and Tony for hiking and picture taking! Lot's of fun, and not a big bug problem. Then home to get ready for tonight's outting...as the Avaiation Dance was cancelled we are instead getting together for dinner at Bravo Cucina at Town Square in Virginia Beach. The other group will be upstairs at Funny Bones.
Bridget, Dianna, Dawn, Carol & Vickie; John, Brian, David & Walt

Dinner was nice. Afterwards we walked the the gellato and Stonecold then back to the square for conversation and music. We were joined by the group from upstairs and when then headed out...

Added Howard, Anita, Alyson, & Carin. First stop was Keegan's, place was so loud there was no way of having any conversation...but we did actually have a table, not enough chairs, but we had a table.

Enough of that so we meet up at Stooges, now there are two locations, and most of us made it to the correct one on the first attempt! Where we were joined by a freind of Howards, and Surprise! Tony and Tonia walked in!

But the karaoke was so bad we had to leave...
that put's us into Sunday! And dinner was at six!

10 July 2009 ~ Friday

Dan came over and we went out to DW's Grill for dinner...of course we had to detour via Ollie's

Came home and I prepped the Movie Swing Vote but he stayed in the kitchen for what seemed like forever and played with the dogs! Finally he just left! WTF? YipEE!

What Ever!

09 July 2009 ~ Thursday

I don't remember a thing!
Which is precisely the reason why you are supposed to keep up with this on a daily basis!

08 July 2009 ~ Wednesday

Dan came over and we watched the movie Transporter 3.

07 July 2009 ~ Tuesday

My first set of "Me Pages" are complete and ready to go out in the mail!

Movie with Tiffany & Tonia at Cinema Cafe, "Ghoast of Girlfriends Past" A pretty good movie.

Poor Tonia, always has her food order messed up!

06 July 2009 ~ Monday

Supposed to be a recouperation day

05 July 2009 ~ Sunday

Well I finally managed to catch seven hours of sleep, not uninterupped by Gizzy but in total. Never again go to the beach for the fourth of July fireworks!

And then the weren't that good to begin with. But the people were great so I guess that's what matters.

Concert this evening.

04 July 2009 ~ Saturday

Indenpendence Day~ Fireworks on the Virginia Beach boardwalk.

Even ran into Chris at Zero's

03 July 2009 ~ Friday

It's done it's over, I am so over his games...so I gave him a deadline of August 1, either he's back home or it's done forever. I'm so sick of this. He couldn't be bothered with me last night, to have at least called to let me know 1-that his sorry ass was ok, or two that he wasn't coming over after all. But his sorry ass could go have a few drinks at the bar, and not bother to even answer my phone call. Nope,...that certainly made tonight's decision a whole easier on me. AND then this morning when he said he doesn't "HAVE" to answer my phones calls, pretty much said a lot right there.

I finally figured out and made him see where things started going south, and guess what...it was his fault! His little blond, and he had to admit it this time it was true. I didn't even get into what did or didn't happen as I really just don't care anymore, the point was "SHE" happened and that was it. She certainly wasn't all of it, but she dammed sure was the downhill swing!

His little fling in May, well, she cleared up to me that the bubble was burst on my one thing I had held onto for all those years...that someday I would be his wife...I just haven't felt that way lately, I guess that really was the last I believed in him, because once I said it, it didn't upset me at all, Aug 1 or done! I new it was done before I said it. This time there's no more tears left.

And more lies caught last night would include, on the phone yesterday morning he said his girlfriend came to see his mom, yet last last night when he was supposed to be telling me the truth, he said that while he was in Indy at Scot's he got a text so he went to see her new house and they went out to dinner. I wonder what part of what of that is actually the truth. Clearly it doesn't really matter as they have not stopped their little pow wow's since may so F uk him! just one more of his stories...

02 July 2009 ~ Thursday

So I talk to the jerk at midnight, says he left Dad's and stopping for dinner, he's gonna stop and sleep for a few before heading out again. I call him again about nine, wake him up, ask where he's at and I get "I don't know"...what ever, but he wasn't interested in talking to me.

So at 10:42 I was walking to the mailbox and called again figuring I'd talk to him while he was driving, no answer, so I called again, this time he answered, said he was having brekfast with Mike and Lynn in VB. Guess he wasn't to far away when he took his nap.

So now what kind of games is he playing? Who exactly was he with when I woke him up that he didn't want to talk to me then? Then he wonders why I can't trust him?

I'm sick of his games and I'm changing my plans for Friday, KMA MF!

Be daring...

Quote for Wednesday, July 1 Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary. (Cecil Beaton)

01 July 2009 ~ Wednesday

We are offically into the Christmas in JULY! My first set of cards are ready and going out in todays mail!

30 June 2009 ~ Tuesday

Today was an interesting day at the office, I guess it was more of a utility day than a work day. SInce I screwed up and forget about filing the taxes I spent the morning trying to locate a tax form...this is our lovely IRS's way of forcing you into signing up for electronic transfers...the form must be from them, you cannot download it from the internet.

Call the accountants...no they don't have it either as the IRS won't send them out. So i go visit the IRS office which fortanely is just down the street...lucked out only one person in front of me. THey have the form...then they want the tax id number, well I didn't take it with me, why would I. It's an IRS FOrm, it's not a f'n loan! "We don't give out forms with out the tax id #!" So I called the office and got it. But what the fuck, what do they think I'm going to do with the form????
And of course you only get two copies, because after all we wouldn't want you to sell them on the black market....

And the IRS has gotten user friendly over the past few years?????

SO I walked back to the office, cooled down then took the check and walked to the bank to make the deposit, then back to the office, figured I wasn't getting anything done anyway, so I went to Costco for supplies and lunch! Got my hotdog!

While at Costco I thought that since we apparently are the only one's working on Friday, that I would get lunch for friday, so I grabbed hot dogs and buns! So when I got back to the office I announced; "I have hot dogs for lunch for Friday" and the rest just took off on it's own! We will have our own little picnic!

I did finally get back to work mode and managed to get some reconciliatons done!
