Wednesday Hodgepodge 9/28/11

Thank you Joyce for coming up with these questions week after week. :)

1. It is officially fall here in North America...I realize not everyone who participates in the Hodgepodge lives in North America but if you do, what's your favorite memory of Summer 2011? If you're not in North America, what's your favorite memory of the season just ending on your side of the world?

            Marrying my wonderful husband Mikel is my favorite summer memory. We were married on May 14^th of this year. It seems like it was a long time ago because we married, went on a 4 day honeymoon, and then moved from FL (where all our family and friends are) to AZ. 

 Yes, I like to show off my hubby! I am so proud of him! He protects our freedom.

2. Your favorite nut? You know I mean the edible kind, right?

I love cashews!!!

3. What activity puts your sense of balance to the test?

Zumba

4. How would you describe your sense of humor?

            I can be very sarcastic at times. I can also be very silly. My husband says I am the silliest woman in the world. LOL!

5. September 28th is National Ask a Stupid Question Day...what's your stupid question?

           

Why does my puppy prefer to drink water out of the bath tub than her bowl?

6. Roller skates~hula hoop~jump rope...which activity would you most enjoy? Yes, you have to choose.

            Roller blades, although, I haven’t done that in a long time. The last times I did I fell like ten times. LOL!

7. What's your most sentimental possession?

            I have many. But I would say my most is the special doll my grandma gave me for my 9^th birthday. She got it for me before I was born and then waited to give it to me till I was old enough to take care of it. I wish I had a picture of it to post on here. But my box of dolls accidentally got left at my parents’ house in FL and I am in AZ, so there is no way to get that picture.

8. Insert your own random thought here.

The last weeks we have been talking about fall; scents, colors etc. and well you made me want to go out and buy fall stuff. So I got two candles this past weekend a pumpkin spice one and a cinnamon spice one. :) 

If you are not sure which is my favorite click here to find out. :) 

HAPPY FALL!!!! 

Randomness

Well, I am home again from TN. I am actually on the phone with Mikel right now. I am helping the person I babysit move into her new house. It is a hugs house with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathroom, an pretty big kitchen and living room and also a pool. Tomorrow, I get to go help more which is good because I need the money. I am going to apply to work as a sub and also at the YMCA on the north end of town. Hopefully I will get one of the jobs, because I need all the money I can get because of having to pay for so much for the wedding and moving and such. Helping Stacey move was really weird for me because I was thinking that probably the next time I do that, I will be moving into a house/apartment of my own with my husband. Thats just weird to think about... I will be married... Really Really weird. lol! Yes, I know this but its still weird... lol! Anyway, I will try to write more later..

Memorial Day

So I just got back from the memorial day cook out with our home group. I decided to switch from xanga to blogspot so three of my posts say that they are from today, but I put the real date they were written at the top.
Today has been a great day! I got to spend time with Mr. Mike and Mrs. Shirley who I haven't seen in 3 years. I have missed them a whole lot! They are awesome!!! Like I thought, the cook out was loads of fun. I have class tomorrow... During the summer im taking an American history class, a Spanish conversation class, and two teaching classes; teaching diverse populations and teaching with technology. All but the Spanish class are online. Yes, I'm the crazy student who takes 12credit hours during the summer. lol! oh well. Tomorrow, I have my Spanish test, on thr, i'm going to take my midterm for my history class... my teaching classes don't start till the 23rd. I have to prepare a presentation for my Spanish class... I'm thinking of doing it on Mexico.
I miss Mikel so very much right now!! I am on the phone with him, I just wish I could be with him right now! Only 368 days till I'm getting married to him. :D I can't wait till that day!!

HAPPY SUNDAY!!

So I ended up babysitting over night last night... It was interesting... I didn't get much sleep... I was up till 2am on the phone with Mikel. He is 3hrs behind my time.... which sometimes stinks (late at night), and sometimes is nice(early in the morning). Anyway, so this morning I wake up and here Vann(4) and Sydney(7next week) playing... I go and check on them, change the clothes over that I was washing for there mom, and to get to the laundry room I have to go through the play room. I saw something red on the floor and was like, what is that. It was paint... They had apparently decided to paint something i have no idea what because they never showed me... But the floor, the carpet, the chairs and the table and other various places around the house had paint on them... What a way to ruin a morning. Oh and also, I woke up with a headache.. So between the two... ugh!!! So while I am cleaning up paint, Vann decided to open the front door and he let the dog out. I had to chase Angel down the street to get her back into the house.... We did somehow make it to church this morning... and we were 10min early(I have no idea how that happened).

Church was nice... I had a really bad headache but luckily by the time i was needed to help in children's church it had gone most of the way away. I helped teach about Daniel and the lions den... It was fun but crazy because the whole youth group decided to join the kids... lol!!! After church, I took Vann and Syd to CiCi's pizza for lunch and then we spent the rest of the day at the park. At almost 5pm their parents came home. I made $110 for this weekend :D too bad I don't get to keep any of it.

So, Mr. Mike and Mrs. Shirley gave me and Mikel a leather pull out couch that looks brand-new!!! It is amazing!! I have always wanted a leather couch I think they are the most comfortable couches ever!!! Lol!!

Since writing the above I have just got home from Dollar Tree where by brother Joshua decided to drive me CRAZY by picking up stuff and going away from me in the store where I had to look for him every where.

Our home group collected things that Mr. Mike and Mrs. Shirley. I needed to get a big gift bag for all of the stuff and guess what I found while I was doing that,?? Rose petals 300 for $1, that’s cheaper than oriental trading (300 for $4). I was so happy to find those… I bought all of them... But there were only 12 bags lol! I am tempted to go to the other Dollar Tree and buy more…. So I have now started my buying for my wedding… only 169 days to go, I can’t wait!!! Anyway, tomorrow is memorial day, so Happy Memorial Day everyone!!!
