What I did this weekend…

Hello everyone!!! It’s me again!!! Sorry I haven’t been posting as much as I used to. I’m just so busy that I don’t have time to blog!!! But I’m still going to continue doing it, even if I only get to blog once a week. I can’t believe I’ve already finished 4 weeks of classes so far!!! Only 12 more weeks to go!!!

So now that the weekend is almost over, what did I do this past weekend? Well, Friday morning the cable guy came and installed digital cable and DRV!!! Remember a few months ago when I was contemplating if we should get DVR or not? (Click here to read that post) Well, they are having a special on digital cable right now making it a lower price for a year. Also, DVR is about $3 cheaper for 6 months, so we figured we’d get it, since it isn’t as much extra as it would have been if we got it months ago. I’m so excited that we have DVR now because there are some shows returning this week and in the coming weeks. This will come in handy when I have to work on a night that one of my shows is on. I just hope I can find the time to watch all of them eventually!!

Yesterday I had off from work, but I didn’t do much. I was in a cleaning mood, so I did some cleaning up and vacuuming. If you looked at the place right now though, it wouldn’t look like I did much cleaning cause it is messy again!!! We need more space!!! Either that, or we need to get rid of a lot of stuff. We went to Walmart at one point yesterday and I decided to get Soul Surfer from Redbox. Soul surfer is the best movie of the year so far!!! And it is officially in the top 5 of my favorite movies!! I actually watched it again earlier this morning. I am definitely buying it eventually!! It is just so inspiring!! It gives you a different perspective on life and it doesn’t matter if you are religious or not. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone and everyone!!! Oh, and how can I forget to mention that Carrie Underwood is in Soul Surfer!!! My step-mom saw the movie before me and she said that Carrie had a bigger part than she thought she would, and I agree. I think Carrie did a great job in her debut movie!!! I hope to see her in another movie someday!!!

Then today, my fiancĂ© is off playing airsoft so I’ve just been home alone all day. I watched 2 episodes of The Secret Life of the American Teenager and did some school work. Now it’s time for me to do a little more school work before I go to work at 5. I’m gonna try to get stuff done that needs to be done for Tuesday so that I don’t have to do it tomorrow. Tomorrow is my fiancĂ©'s 21st birthday and I want to take him out to eat and just spend the night with him, no school work allowed!! Have a great rest of your Sunday everyone!!

Goodbye Gosselin’s

I just got done watching the Kate Plus 8 series finale. And I have to say, I’m kind of sad. I love the Goesslin family!!! The show was a joy to watch. Of course there were times I watched the show and thought, “Wow!!”, but I think every show is like that at some point. One thing that the show made me think about was, how different would their life be if they never did the show? Of course it would be completely different!! I’m just glad that Kate finally decided it was time to get those kids of TV.

So what are your thoughts on the Gosselin family? Did you watch the series finale?

Help me help those in need!

As many of you on the East coast know, there has been a lot of flooding going on recently. I have decided that I would like to help out those involved in flooding, so I’m going to be taking orders for Scentsy and donate 90% of my commission to the American Red Cross. If you would like to help out, click here to place your order. And please, pass this on to your friends and family, blog about it. Help me get the word out and help those in need!!! Thank you!! Stay safe out there!! Don’t drive unless you absolutely have to!

Hello again!

Wow, it seems like it’s been forever since I’ve posted last. I’m not sure how I’m going to keep up with blogging this semester. But, I am determined to at least post twice per week. My second week of my senior year is almost over! It’s so hard to believe! I still can’t believe I’m a senior in college. I am so close to having my teaching degree and then I’ll be ready to get a teaching job!!!

So what has been going on in my life other than being busy with school work? Well, as you know if you read my blog, I started selling Scentsy a few weeks ago. This past Saturday, one of my friend’s family had a yard sale. My friend invited me to have a table set up for Scentsy. I had a few items I could sell on the spot and then I could take orders. Unfortunately, I didn’t sell any items and I didn’t take any order. I think the whole time I was there, which was about 5 hours, I only handed out 3 or 4 catalogs. And I have yet to hear from anyone. I still gotta keep saying to myself, “I’ve just started, it’s going to take time to really get going.” Plus, the holidays are coming up and people are going to need Christmas gifts.

I’m not sure if I mentioned it before, but I started watching The Secret Life of the American Teenager on Netflix. I am currently on episode 28 of 73, so only 46 more episodes to go!! Then I have to figure out some way to watch season 4, because they only have seasons 1-3 on Netflix. I figure by the time I get there, I’ll be able to watch them. I’m really enjoying the show! I can’t believe I never watched this show before!

Well, I guess that’s about it. Oh wait, one more thing!! Nick@Nite is one of my favorite things right now!!! They just started showing Friends and this whole week they’ve been having a marathon starting at 8:00 pm! Friends has always been one of my favorite shows! I’ll leave you with a funny quote from one of the episodes I just saw tonight. Happy Wednesday (almost Thursday) and stay safe if you are experiencing a lot of rain and flooding! We’ve had a lot of rain here but, knock on wood, haven’t had any flooding yet.


Scene: Chandler is moving out of Joey’s apartment. He is going over all the bills that Joey will have to pay. He hands him the electric bill.
Chandler: Okay uh, here’s the electric bill. (Hands it to him.)
Joey: This is how much we pay for electric?!!!
Chandler: Uh, yeah.
(Joey runs over and shuts off the lights.)
Chandler: So, we’ll do the rest of the bills later then?
