a settling blog.

i know it's been a while, bloggy.  but a lot has been going on!

first and foremost, as i'm sure you read, i finally moved in with my fiance.  it's more awesome than i could have imagined.  the house is great, the neighborhood is really quiet and friendly, there's a goodwill right down the street!  just so much awesome!  and after two years of chris just coming and going and me being sad when he leaves, i finally know that whenever he leaves he's coming right back here when he's done.  :D

i had a hard couple of days right before the move, because i was moving out of my parents house.  and i was really down and really randomly cry-y and all that.  i do love them and i do miss them, but i think they're happy for me to be out on my own.  plus chris will take me there pretty much whenever i want.  gonna go spend a day with them tomorrow actually (after my no-baby shot appointment).  :D

the place is still a little messy.  we can only have one garbage can for trash pick-up, so i couldn't just fill it with all my newspaper and packing boxes or else there wouldn't be room for actual gross trash, so there's a lot of empty boxes and an equal amount of boxes filled with moving trash.  the last big thing left for the room is the entertainment center and the t.v.  turns out the new t.v. was indeed too big for mine, but luckily there is a spare in the extra bedroom that's in really good condition and has a lot of shelves, so it will work nicely in the room and fit all the crap i have that i haven't found a place for yet.

it's supposed to be warming up soon, and hopefully chris can take me driving.  i'm really close to getting my licence, my only concerns right now are that i don't know the area and i never got to parallel parking.  hopefully i can get those conquered and get my licence, it would just be so much easier when i go job hunting.

speaking of sitting around and not having a job, i've been playing house wife lately, which is more amusing than it sounds.  doing dishes is like my quiet time.  i've been hanging curtains and rearranging furniture and making the place a little less manly, though i feel phil is not a fan of my big eyed owl collection.  :P

so that's about it for now.  gotta run around the house and find something to clean.  like that stinky good will chair.  i will febreeze it until it smells no more.  i will conquer this chair, i swear it!!

peace.

an excited blog!

it's getting so close!

moving day is tuesday!  i still have so much to do!  i have a little more stuff to pack, i need to do laundry, hang laundry, get my spring clothes out of the shed so i can wash those and hang them.  i have to sort through the stuff under my bed and pack it up too and blah blah blah. . .

i've gotten some new house stuff to go with the other house stuff that chris and i have been hoarding forever.  got a new little end table to match the room, chris bought some more curtains (two windows in the room instead of just one!), some cute storage bins, a million matching hangers (all from dollar tree, whoop whoop!), all sorts of stuff!  i'm excited to make my little home.  :D

i still have my moments of sad though.  i love my family and i'll miss us all being in the same house, but i am engaged and that's a little hard when you don't live together.  i miss him so much when he's gone, i mean, i agreed to spend my life with him so i like to have him around!  once or twice a week doesn't exactly cut it.  D:

but i'm getting more and more excited to just start something new.  

in other news, have some cute.


craig spent the entirety of a thunderstorm on my legs staring at the door like the thunder was gonna come in.

also, look at my cool pajama pants.  they're cool.  :P

in other other news, have you been reading my weight watchers blog!?  i'm lost six whole pounds!  i'm still behind mom and mandy, though, and i think my birth control has something to do with it.  they told me i'd probably gain weight and i figure it's stubborn fat that doesn't want to leave.  i eat my points and i get on the treadmill everyday, as long as i lose a pound or two a week i'll be doing just fine.  

i'm sad i can't share some more cool pictures with you, apparently my camera is too ancient for any of the computers in the house, the memory card doesn't fit in any of them!  i know i can them on chris' computer though, so expect random pictures soonish.

peace.

a packing blog!

trying to pack up a bunch of little knick knack-y stuff today.  

currently have one box full of small owls, two ghosts, a dinosaur, some see-no-evil-monkey, a baby figurine, team rocket, toki, mew, some of those laser etched glass things, a light up sock monkey and a stuffed  panda from panda express.  i tried to label the box as such, but didn't have enough room.  my collection of stuff is so weird!  the box was supposed to be an owls only box, but it got too full of little ones and the big ones wouldn't fit and that's how the dinosaur and ghosts and stuff came into it.

i'm sure you don't care.  

the point is i have a bunch of tiny random stuff to pack, and that if i pack the random tiny stuff now then i'll have more time later to help with the big stuffs.  also, if i pack up the tiny random stuff then i won't be thinking about eating, since what i had planned to be an awesome breakfast was ruined when mom ate the eggs.  D:  my tummy is already rumbling again, but i'm trying to wait until at least three before lunch-ing.

back to packing tiny-s.  will blog at you later.

peace.

a not-so-hungry blog.

hello, my bloggers!

i haven't been ignoring you.  i have actually been really wanting to blog to you about random stuffage, but these random stuffs had pictures involved and those pictures are on my phone and the usb cord to my phone is who knows where. . .

if you were curious, there was a picture of me and a valentine pillow pet, chris holding a bath loofah shaped like a wiener dog, my owl mug watching us as we play thunderstone, and my hello kitty purse staring at us creepily.   

in other news, i'm now on day two at the game shop watching chris judge the nerdy actions of others.  yesterday while this was going on i crocheted a hat, started designing a new blog to follow my weight watchers adventures and gave my laptop a horrible virus that i hope it recovers from.  i also kicked ass at another game of thunderstone (even though i did have about a MILLION diseases in my deck).  i'm so cool.  :P

i guess the biggest news of this blog is that i may actually be moving!  chris and i think we can finally afford to move in with his bff phil.  he'll even cut us a deal until i find a job there.  so i may be moving to shelbyville at the beginning of march and i'll finally be able to use all those kitchen supplies we've been hoarding under my bed!  oh, and my adorable heart shaped bowls i got for christmas!  i'm gonna eat so much cereal out of them.  :B

and everyone has been very supportive of the move, so hopefully it actually goes as planned.  mom says she'll have to face her fears about driving on the interstate so she can make sure we don't starve.  mandy and dad are already fighting about what to do with my room.  dad wants an office.  mandy wants a salon.  i can't wait to see who wins on that one.

and also, MY NEW BLOG.  it's all about me winning or failing at weight loss.  my goal is have a wedding dress that zips up all the way.  go read.  now.

peace.
