Doug :)

Alright, so many of you probably already know..but I have been trying to adopt a dog. His name is Doug and hes a beagle. I went and saw him on Tuesday and filled out an application. They told me to call today at 1pm but the lady I was to talk to was gone so I left a message. I am hoping she calls tomorrow. If not I will call again. I am just oober anxious. I have been wanting a dog..since I had to get rid of my last one. :'( He was a beagle too. I have my fingers crossed they will approve us!

The good and bad times

Sooo..some of you may know my cousin was in a pretty good car accident Saturday night. She supposedly swerved to miss a deer or dog and she flipped her car and flew out going 20-30 feet. But I saw the pics of her car today..I think the fact that she wasn't wearing her seat belt saved her life. The car was pretty bad. But anyways..she has some pretty serious injuries. She had blood on the brain, but the doctors aren't doing surgery yet cuz I guess its not bad enough. It should take care of itself. She has a few broken ribs and a collapsed or partially collapsed lung. They put chest tubes in her. Poor girl..she said those hurt like hell. I can just imagine. But its helping..she had so much fluid in her lungs. I went to see her today. When I saw her the first time she was off her drugs so they could give her an epidural. She was in so much pain. Made me wanna cry to see her like that. When we came back later though, she had a test shot of epidural and she was a little happier. The third time, she had her little button thing she can push to get drugs back, and she was pretty happy. Not realizing of course, that that thing only allows so much out. haha..but we had her laughing by the time we left. Me and my mom got her a balloon and a necklace..the necklace was kinda like a charm bracelet where you can put whatever you want on it..well they are little circles called Infinity circles..we got family, strength and smile for her. Oh and I got her a little good luck token. So hopefully things will start to get better soon. I'm not sure how long she'll be in the hospital..but she was moved out of the ICU and into Trauma..so shes getting somewhere. Thanks for all the prayers guys!



So now or something a little more cheerful...me and Seth are going camping tomorrow. I am totally excited. We always go at least once a year. We borrow his dads camper. Its so nice to just get away for a few days!

Rain, Lightning, Thunder...and TORNADOES?!

Okay, so I know I've said before that I hate storms. Today has seriously been the worst! It started as I was going to work at 2:30pm. It was dark and rainy. I started work at 3...well it started to get darker out..but by the looks of the radar before work it wouldn't be all that bad. We usually are pretty lucky...not today! Well I was at Copps (the grocery store) today for work. And I took a cart of for parcel (we load the bags into peoples cars at their request if you didnt know) and anyways they have a special entrance for that. Well the doors they have are just like swing doors. As I was standing there looking outside to see how dark it was, I noticed it was raining pretty hard and getting really windy. The door actually came back and hit me. The doors are pretty heavy, so on a normal day it doesn't fly open like that. And the parcel is under a canopy thing..and even standing under it I was getting pretty wet because of the wind. Well I load the car and walk back in. Seth's there talking to me then a manager and he looks outside. And then as I walk back in to where the registers are, this older lady who works there is standing by the customer entrance and she says she doesn't like how the sky is so green..and right after she said that the lights went out!! She screamed..I thought it was kinda funny..we have a generator..even tho the actual lights came back on like 45 secs later. Then the manager makes the announcement..theres a Tornado warning. I HATE tornadoes. This has only happened one other time..and that time wasn't this bad. Well that time we had hail..this time we didn't. But this time they made everyone go back to the bathrooms and the hallway by them. We stood there for like 20-30 mins. But they were keeping us updated and they said a tornado was spotted in Nekoosa...which is where my mom lives. Like a 10 min drive from Wisconsin Rapids where Copps is. I freaked out and started crying because Nekoosa is sooo small and my mom works nights so I wasn't sure if she would be sleeping. I feel foolish for crying..but I am uber close to my mom and I was worried. Luckily Seth had his cell cause mine was in our break room. So I called my mom..and she was so clueless about it. She didn't even know there was a tornado. But I still told her to go to the basement, haha, but she said it had pretty much passed. But anyways..it was quite a day. At least I got half an hour to stand around. lol. And I'm still not sure where the Tornado even was, cause every says something different. They had to close Wal Mart because it lost power..so people came to us. I wish we'd lost power so we could go home. Haha..but then even on my way home at 10..it was lightning again..the first one was from like 545-615..and its still raining pretty hard and lightning. Its 130 am. This is just insane for us. We never have this many storms back to back, and for like weeks. We've had so many storms this month. Luckily not all this bad..but it feels like we're in Oklahoma or Kansas.

I just had to tell you all that...it was just so crazy..I am not used to this kind of stuff! This is why I could never live in Oklahoma or Kansas or anywhere where this is normal. lol

Annoyances

So, I don't know if this will make sense, but what really annoys me is when someone goes to see a movie, such as Eclipse and bitches about how shitty it is. It bothers me when these people have never even read the book. So they really have no clue. I hate how people will get into a movie just cause its got hot actors and its popular. Try reading a book once in awhile. If you've read the book and didn't like it, thats okay..but honestly, you probably have no clue if you havent even read the book. People who think reading is lame but then love a movie about the book annoy the crap out of me. Stop being lazy and read!

Okay..just had to get that out there.

My first Eclipse viewing!

Alright so..before I read anyone elses thought I need to ramble on about my own. I went today at the 1230 showing with my 7 year old niece Jacinda. We got to see it on the mega screen! Woot! :)

Anyways..lets begin.

I have to say I LOVED the beginning. I thought it was very creative and different for them to start with Riley and not be focused on Bella right away. And may I say Riley is a total cutie!

The meadow scene..I still dont feel the chemistry 100% and its KStews fault. Rob was great. But the actual field was beautiful!!!

I love anything with Charlie. He always makes it funny! Like when Bella says shes still a virgin. Then he says he likes Edward a little more because of that. Nice little laugh there. lol

The scene with Bella and her mom was done very well, I thought. Pretty touching. Probably one of the better scenes Kristen did. I actually almost had a tear.

Also, I liked how they took us to Seattle and showed us what Riley and the newborns were up to. I have to say I like how they didnt make this a "Lets follow Bella around the whole time" deal.

The flashbacks were wonderful! It was awesome to see Rosalie and Jasper's story...oh Jasper. I loved having more of him. I loved when he was teaching the others about killing newborns. And his playfulness with Alice. So cute!

Rosalie's hair..MUCH BETTER! Although her eyebrows bugged me.

The action---AMAZINGLY AWESOME! I seriously went to the edge of my seat to watch it. I loved when the Cullens were chasing Victoria through the woods. And the fight at the end. So very well done!

Oooh and of course. I liked how when the vampires limbs were ripped off it actually looked like ice underneath. At first I was a little put back..but when I thought about it I was like wow...thats actually cool. Since they are so cold and like Rosalie said they are "frozen."

Oh and the Bella/Jacob kiss. The first one was funny as hell! The second one...well seemed to me they had more chemistry then KStew and RPattz which is a problem.

I know I am missing many things I should say. There was just so much in this movie. Oh I liked Jessica's graduation speech. lol. So true! haha..but yeah..

Ooooh I felt sooooo bad for Bree at the end. She was so scared and helpless. Now I don't know if I'll be able to read her book. :( Poor girl. I hate Jane. haha

Oh yeah and the story Billy told..I like how it showed us then at the end with Bella cutting herself to save Edward..it was cool to see both parts. And of course looooved when Edward killed Victoria...but poor Riley..killed because of her. Bitch! lol

ANNNND OF COURSE! The tent scene. It was done so well. Like I think almost word for word from the book. Pretty close. Thats what I loved..this time around I felt like we were closer to the book than any of the others.

So I know I am missing stuff but I'll finish for now..But just gotta tell you all what my niece said. Well first she asked if I was team Edward or team Jacob..and I said Edward. And she kinda sighs and is like..oh I'm Jacob. lol Then after the movie I asked her what she thought. She said she liked it...except for the kissing. HAHA

Sad! :(

I see all of your blogs about Eclipse! And I can't even read them! I asked one more person if she can go Saturday with me. I'm not even sure if she wants to see it. haha. But if she can go maybe I'll see it Saturday. I may become a loner loser and go by myself Saturday. Because I don't know if I can handle this anymore. Otherwise if I'm lucky and me and Seth are done early enough Wednesday we'll go then. Or next Thursday I have off and he said he'd go then if he's done with work early enough. This is just killing me. Every where I go I see people talking about it. :(

Just a little rambling

So we went to Mount Olympus today. Wasn't as fun as normal. Was way more packed than normal so we didn't actually go on any rides since the lines were so extremely long. Just did the pools and lazy rivers. But they were the free tickets so its not like we wasted money. I think thats why it was so busy. I'm sure millions of free tickets were given out before the summer season and they end the 30th so everyone was using them up at last minute. Oh well..atleast I got to do some swimming. But I did get an icky sunburn! And I even put suntan lotion on, but that was like 3 hours after we got there. And we were inside for quite some time. But it was party cloudy...which is when you get the worst sunburns. Psh! haha

Oh and I don't know if anyone else watches True Blood, I think Lily does...but wow! This seasons insane. I'm still reading book 3. haha. But I just had to say I'm lovin it lots! :)

Storms! Yuck

Sooo theres a pretty big storm in Wisconsin right now. I hate storms! And this ones pretty big! Probably gonna be a few hours before its done. And it sucks cus I need to go to sleep cus I have to be up at 8am to go to the Dells. Which is another thing..I hope it doesn't storm a lot tomorrow! We normally go to the Dells on a weekday but for some reason we couldn't so we are going on a Sunday..and yay...its a weekend with storms.
Eeeeek! Lots of lightening and thunder. I'm such a chicken. Its not so much the thunder and lightening..its what can come from storms..like tornadoes. That would put me into a frenzy! This is one reason I wish we lived in an actual house...with a basement! haha. We don't normally get anything to serious here. But I still freak out!

Work, work, work!

Well tonight wasn't too bad. I was afraid I'd walk in and we would be overbooked cus we were close to selling out last time I worked. But we actually had like 17 rooms left! So I didn't have to worry. Although, like always, I had some odd guests. One lady wanted a different room cus she requested no smoking. Which was what I put her in..we only have like maybe 10 smoking rooms. But she said it smelled smokey, and bad. So I moved her but I needed all my doubles so I went to smokescreen the room and when I walked in, it only smelled like Axe to me. She said her daughter had sprayed Fe breeze and it didn't work. Well okay, but I really didnt smell smoke at all. I get that a lot. They say their room smelled smokey when it actually smelled like mens cologne. Argh! But by July 5th, the Wisconsin law is all hotels have to be completely non smoking. I can't wait!!

Anyways...ahh..this week is gonna be nuts! I work 5 shifts at the hotel..so I actually have 40 hours for once there. And of course the grocery store gave me a 7 hour and 15 min shift the day I work there. So almost a 48 our week. It'll be nice to have the money but wow! I'm glad week days usually are pretty easy at the hotel. Just sucks that I work 3-11 on the 4th of July. Not that I normally do anything anyways. haha

Changes

Well I am just having fun on here. Keep changing my page around!

So today was alright. Didn't even do a whole lot. We went to Seth's moms for dinner. His mom, step dad, grandpa and grandma were there. It was delicious. Steaks, red potatoes, rolls and fruit salad. Yumm! :) Then we played half a game of Phase 10. It was fun. Oh and his grandma gave us a bunch of stuff like always. She gave us these electronic Sudoku and Crossword puzzle games. They are quite cool!



Heres the cake I made Seth. Haha..it looks kinda funny. I didn't wait long enough to put the frosting on so it melted. Haha...and thats a ninja turtle on the left. LOL..he told me to do that.

Birthdays

So today (June 24th) is my boyfriends 24th birthday. We went disc golfing earlier today or yesterday technically. We went with a friend of his. That was interesting. It was nice to get out and do something, especially since its free. haha. I made him a cake tonight too. We're going to his moms for supper for his birthday. I guess we'll see how that goes.

Starting out..

So this was basically made so its easier to stay in touch with Lily and her wedding plans! But I thought it'd be fun to start blogging.

So I can't say a whole lot about myself right now. I am excited to have the next two days off to spend with Seth for his birthday. Not sure what we're doing, discing tomorrow if its not raining all day..not sure about Thursday. I wanna do something fun. I guess we'll just figure it out on Thursday.

Well then this Sunday we're (Me, Mom, Nicole, and Jacinda, and maybe Joe) are going to Mt. Olympus in the Dells. I just hope it doesn't storm. Its nice cause they have the inside waterpark, but that doesn't help with the lightening. But we usually luck out. *Crosses fingers*
