I HATE MY CAR

The car we bought in 2004 is a lemon!!! Unfortunately it is not bad enough to qualify for the lemon law. For those who just read random logs, I own a Saturn. Yeah, never hear anything bad about them, huh? Well, I could write you a book about mine. The lastest little problem is when I turn on my head lights, I loose all the lights in the back of the car (parking lights, brake lights). The only lights that seem to work is the one on the tag and the brake light at the top of the vehicle. The local Saturn dealership doesn't feel that it's important enough to get me in until sometime next week. Meanwhile I can not basically drive at night time; a great thing just in time for the time change!! And I'm sure when it does get fix it'll be at $250+ job - I just put $225 into the car last week. How old is this junker you ask? A 2000 with only 47500 miles on it! Great, huh?

Well that's enough about that; I feel better. My weight loss routine had gone by the way side - I put 8.5 of the 39.5 pounds back on, but I'm trying to restart myself this week. I've done much better (I think) and started back in the gym. I've only made it 2 times, but I've walked around the block a night and basically just worked 19 of the past 24 hours so I haven't had time the past couple of days. I'll get there soon! Work, is work. I'm still adjusting to my new shift, but I'll manage.

Have a great weekend!!!

I have once again attempted to upload some of my pictures. This is one I tokl while working in Gulfport, MS. I was able to take a helicopter ride and survey some of the damage. The helicopter ride was very cool and I would like to do it again! The picture is of Treasure Bay Casino, which I think may sit in Biloxi, MS. As you can see it was totally destroyed and pulled off of the building it was anchored to.

Have you given up on me?

It's been a while since I've blogged. Nothing is really new just been extrememly busy. The new shift at work in OK; I feel like the third wheel but I'm sure after awhile I'll be OK. I took Spanish class last weekend. I was very surprised to find out that Marcus could count to 5 in Spanish! The class was fun and I now know how to communicate with some at a very slow rate.

Life here is starting to settle down after the wedding. We are trying to catch up on some bills and of course the money pit always needs attention but never seems to get it. The car broke down last week. 2 days and $225 later it seems to be working fine.

I have to go entertain the boys; I'll be back in a few days!!

Nothing New

Just a short blog to let everyone know that nothing is new. The growth on my face turned out to be shingles. Where'd I get that, hell, I don't know but I am just about over it. I still have about 3 days of medicine left.

Today I offically start my new work assignment as AOIC. I'm very leary but I hope it'll owrk out. Only time will tell!!

I should be doing housework, but don't feel like it - I really wish I have more $ to go get craft stuff!!! :-)
