Spring!

I love it.  The weather is changing.  We are expected to have a few cold fronts, but I think the warmer weather is here to stay.  We've been spending a little time outside.  Going on walks with the pup and whatnot.  I got some fresh fruit from my cousin.  Pineapple, watermelon, and honeydew.  Super yumm!  I love fruit.  I pretty well hate veggies, so I need to eat something healthy.  It's hard to diet when you hate veggies.  I've been forcing myself to eat some.  The ones I can handle without puking. 

I was so excited to read the second book in the Hunger Games series (Catching Fire), but I have been so busy.  Plus I've been indulging in a few evening television shows.  Biggest Loser, The Voice, American Idol, Law and Order SVU, American Idol results show (still so upset that Casey Abrams went home), and The Office.  I am going to do some cleaning today, some pretty heave cleaning, so I hope I get to get into this book.  I had planned to be done with it by Sunday evening, but that's just not possible.  I can't read that fast.  LOL!  I hope you all are having a great weekend.  I know mine is going to be great!

Job Decision

So I called the Dental Lab back and asked if he had made up his mind yet.  He said he had and that he was going to wait.  Which again, is a little vague.  Does that mean he would like to hire me at a different time?  Or does it mean that he just isn't going to hire me now or ever?  He also said that everything on my application looked good, and reiterated that he was going to wait.

The weather here has been gorgeous, but then it snowed last night.  Not enough to amount to anything, just enough to dust the roof tops.  Nothing even stuck to the ground.  I hoping it will warm back up today.  Do I sound like a broken record when I keep saying that I am hoping for nicer weather?  Because I am hoping for nicer weather, lol!

My sister and her family are in sunny Florida for Spring Break.  So jealous.  I don't know exactly what their plans are, but I imagine they will hit up Disney World.  If I were going, I would want to go to discovery cove and swim with the dolphins.  Dolphins are my favorite animal. 

I know that I haven't blogged in a little while.  Things get crazy from time to time, and there isn't anything worth writing about.  Day in and day out, the same ole thing.  I'm happy, just uneventful.  We found out that Whitney is allergic to cats, so we rented a rug doctor and cleaned the carpet.

The Weather

It is so gorgeous outside today.  Whitney went out for a walk with Missy (our puppy) and spent some time in the backyard.  I love spring weather.  I can't wait for it to stay spring.  I love all seasons to be honest.  The beginning of each season is my favorite part.  The newness and of it all.  I love planting flowers in the spring and smelling the fresh air.  Before you know it summer will be here and the pool will be calling my name.  I often wonder what it would be like to live in AZ or NM.  I think I would die in the heat to be honest.  I don't do to well here in MO with the humidity at 8000%.  It gets muggy and I get mean, but in spring you don't have to worry about that.  

In other news I am on the job hunt again.  My foot still isn't healed enough to have a "standing" job, but a receptionist job would be nice.  It's pretty hard for everyone to find work right now, let alone someone who can't stand on their feet for longer than 20 minutes without her legs trying to give out on her.  It's amazing how much I took for granted.  Perfectly well working feet that carried me wherever I wanted to go.  Now I lose my balance and can hardly walk around the block.  I guess I have learned to be more careful to avoid another accident.  I just hope my foot gets back to normal soon!  I miss running up the stairs and not having to hold the railing on the way down.  Enough of that crap!  Wish me luck on the job search. 

Forever Snow and some Answers.

So it snowed a crap ton.  All day yesterday!  It was blizzardy and windy and snowy and crazy!  Almost everything around here was closed, including I-70.  They said on the news that I-70 was closed between Kansas City and saint Louis.  I don't know if it actually was, but it's still crazy.  Someone was out shoveling snow, another guy was stuck in the road and his car was just spinning out.  Whitney went to help him, but the guy finally got a system going where he backed up and then sped forward over the part he had already drove through.  I've been tinkering around with Wordpress hoping to soon offer Blog Designz for Wordpress blogs.  It's been challenging, but it looks like there are alot more options for customizing without having to know HTML.  Since I already know some HTML this makes my life very easy!  I promised that in my next post I would answer your questions.  So here they are.

Brittney @ Mommywood asked:

"If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?"

Answer:  Probably next to the beach.  I have never been out of the Country so I am not sure how much I would like it.  I like living in the US.  I think I would like being next to the beach in CA, but would hate how crowded it is.  I love Denver too with all the mountains being jsut out your window.  It's so nice there.  I know that didn't answer your question, but I guess either CA or CO.

Kristy asked:

What was your mommypants moment.  Which means when you knew what it was to be a mother.

Answer:  Seeing as how I am not a mother yet, but watching my sister with her kids lets me know I want to be one someday!

Aphrodites Mortal Friend asked:

What is your greatest talent.

Answer:  By far my greatest talent is singing.  I love it and it thankful comses naturally.  I was blessed to have a mother and father who had amazing voices and I guess it just carried on to me, and my sister.  I have other talents as well, but this is the one I am best known for and enjoy the most.  

I hope you enjoyed learning a little bit more about me.  I would love to answer more of your questions, so please ask if you have any. 

Baby it's Cold Outside

It's pretty bitter out there!  Honestly it's been pretty mild until today.  It's 29 degrees outside which I am sure is warm compared to some but it was just 50 degrees yesterday.  You know what this calls for?

Hot Cocoa, and I'm lovin every second of it.  I'd love a salted caramel hot chocolate from starbucks, but I can't see spending money on it.  I miss starbucks, probably one of the funnest jobs I have ever had!  How cold is it in your neck of the woods?
