Ahoy!
I am stealing borrowing the neighbor’s internet. Yay for wireless. As of now, money is really tight so it will be next month before we get our own internet. The good thing about being up all night (for night shift schedule) is the “normal” people are sleeping so our internet-”borrowing” doesn’t affect them, bwuaha, and it’s nice and fast for us.

Anywho, just wanted to say I’m still alive and thanks for all the sweet comments. I’ll update and return when I get internet.

Sorry for the lack of updates.
I’ll make a blog later with all the details.
Right now I am staying at a friend’s with Final until we move into my sister’s (she’s renting it to us) which will be the night of the 7th, 8th at the latest.

I am the happiest I have ever been because my Final is here it’s amazing.
The only drawback, is his raunchy ass farts, which I am currently choking on…

SIGH.

I still love him though. Raunchy ass farts, koolaid mustaches and all.

Life is good.

Some of you asked to see some of my gift wrapping after my answers on the last Friday 5 blog. Those are only a few of what I’ve wrapped/purchased for people this year. You can sortof see the tiny tree in my room. Most of the gifts were in a bag, ready to go to my mom’s, but I took a few out and propped ‘em next to my tree so you can see. I got a little fancier with the ones under the big tree but they are under the big tree and I didn’t want to disturb them.

Here’s this week’s Manic Monday:
What makes you laugh?
- It depends on my mood and how much sleep I’ve had. Hah. It can be anything from a joke to something a less-than-brilliant person has done.

What makes you cry?
- When people yell or say hurtful things to me, a really sad part in a movie, and sometimes nothing at all.

What is the best thing about being you?
- The best thing about being me is that I have the love of quite possibly the most amazing man on this planet.

This morning I got off of work. It was a crazy morning. I did my two-in-a-row. We had our Christmas potluck on Saturday which actually had alot of good food. The ornament I got was some little dog sitting in an outside beachy chair, in swimming trunks and sunglasses with a book in one hand and drink in the other. Very summer-y. Not sure where it came from. It’s cute though.

Today when I got off work, I went to my grandmother’s to kill some time. I needed to go to the bank to put some money into my sister’s account to help her out some (I offered to pay for rent a few weeks early since the current tenants aren’t paying and I paid a little over so she wouldn’t be late on the mortgage and whatnot). She wasn’t going to ask for it but I didn’t want her to stress anymore than she already was and I was going to give that money to her in a few weeks anyway so why not go right ahead, you know? Of course the damn bank didn’t open until 9am so I sat around my gm’s office for two hours. I tried to kill time by going to Walgreens, Walmart, and McDonalds but I didn’t even burn an hour! I did get a few more stocking stuffer for Final though. AFterwards I came home, passed out around 11am, then woke up around 4:30pm.

Gm and Gp have decided to not smoke in the house any longer and it’s started to get cold outside. She went and bought a space heater for the deck but the wind makes it obsolete. Well she got the bright idea to take some plastic they had and make a little box for her.. so we spent an hour today stapling the plastic around part of the deck (it has a roof over half) and enclosing it so that you could fit two chairs and the heater inside haha. She then got velcro and stapled it to the plastic so she could shut the little door. She tried it out and said there was still some cold (of course) but that it was 90% better. My bets say that before the winter is over with, they smoke in the house atleast 3 times each. Hopefully not, but we’ll see!

I am getting tired again since I didn’t sleep much so I’ll probably pass back out soon. I have to work Tuesday and Wednesday, then I am off four days! Yay!

Here’s some questions for you:
01. Is your Christmas shopping done?
02. What does your tree (if you have one) look like this year? Any color theme?
03. Do you have any Christmas or New Years traditions?
04. What has been your biggest accomplishment this year?
05. What is one goal you have for 2010?

My answers:
01. Is your Christmas shopping done?
- Yes and no. I have enough to satisfy everyone but if I find something else that I think someone would enjoy, I am going to get it (permitting I can afford it).

02. What does your tree (if you have one) look like this year? Any color theme?
- The big tree is a real Spruce tree that is theme with blue, silver, and white. The little one in my room just has white and silver ornaments. When I get into my apartment at the end of the month, I would love to have a white tree. I bought decorations last year that are really pretty shades of blue, purple, pink, and green that would look excellent on it (Final and I will celebrate our Christmas about a month late).

03. Do you have any Christmas or New Years traditions?
- The first person to call the rest of the family Christmas Eve morning and say “Christmas eve gifts!” gets to open a gift early.

04. What has been your biggest accomplishment this year?
- Saying yes when Final asked me to be his girlfriend and getting my CNA so I can get back on my feet and get him moved down here!

05. What is one goal you have for 2010?
- Start my life with Final and get the fucking divorce! Oh and lose weight. XD

Ahoy.
I had intended to blog yesterday (really blog, more than just the friday 5) but I got really busy, which is odd for me. Normally I just work and sleep but I actually had things to do! Gasp!

After I woke up, I showered and whatnot then Gm and I went back into town to get my check, return a phone to the AT&T store and get another, and go to Walmart. My check was lower than usual a friend of mine from work said hers was low, too. I noticed on my schedule, I worked just 2 days in a week instead of 3 so I guess that’s what did it. Either way, atleast it’s money.. right?

Speaking of my friend.. we both started the same day. We had orientation together and although I don’t usually get along well with other girls, I get along really well with her. She’s becoming a good friend of mine. Wednesday night we were both working the same hall and she’d had a terrible week already. Her Uncle passed away and she was having some problems with an ex boyfriend. Around 4:15am she gets a call from her step father (who was in Dallas with her mom and their two little ones, ages 4 and 2). Someone had called and told them that their house has just burnt down. What?! Like.. what do you say to someone who just lost everything in a fire?! This has been the second time she’s been through a house fire too I felt so, so terrible. She stayed for a little but we finally convinced her to go on and not worry about the rest of work. That was a really awful night all around.

So when Gm and I went to Walmart, we picked out the babies some toys and got my friend a $30 gift card to get some stuff. Clothes, scrubs.. just whatever. I wrapped it all and I’m taking it to work tonight to give to her. Tonight is also our Potluck. I made yellow cupcakes with buttercream icing and Christmas sprinkles.

Anywho, so after Walmart I made the cupcakes, wrapped the gifts, did some laundry, and by then I was soo very tired. I did stay up until about 1am or so..that’s all I could last haha.

Final called me this morning and told me he finally went and got his haircut (which he’s been “meaning” to do for over a month now). As his luck would have it, the lady cut it really, really short. I’m talking damn-near military buzz short with more fluff on top. It doesn’t look bad, but it’s certainly different. Now he has the same haircut as his sim when his sim isn’t wear his hat tehe.

Speaking of Final.. he’s been sending me the sweetest emails lately. I’m going to embarass him and give you an excerpt from the most recent one (which, by the way, included an image of a beautiful flower bouquet):
“You are just this insanely perfect being to which I will love endlessly with no condtions regrets or anything of the sort. You are fucking amazing. ”

and towards the end.. “Nothing I ever say will ever feel strong enough to try and explain to you how much I love you. I got you these flowers, because the image said country garden bouqet. It made me think of you my love. I love you forever.”

*squee*

and now I am off to work. Boo.
