Saturday Morning…

Since it is early Saturday morning and I am not exactly sure how my day will turn out yet, I will talk about some other stuff going on in my corner of the world. It is like 7:39am  now, so the sun is just trying to come up and I see this occurrence everyday, but I am always still amazed by how beautiful it really is.

Lately we have been having car trouble. Well, it started last Saturday and Doug had to borrow his cousin’s car to go to work on Monday, but got something fixed Monday afternoon. Last night we were on our way out and it would not start. I think that when he had the lights on he turned the interior lights on and left those on all day and most of the night. So we had to call AAA to get a jump. Good times.

It is very chilly here today, I have the windows open because I love the cool weather. It is not hot enough to have the air on nor cool enough yet to have the heat on during the day. It is rather nice though.

I think that today I will be catching up on my DVR shows since I have been totally addicted to Netflix on the Wii. Now you don’t even need a disk, win! I just downloaded the Netflix channel from the Wii shop channel for free. One day, I will use my Wii for what it was bought for in the first place, Wii Fit. LOL.

Well, I think that this is it for my Saturday morning. Ciao!

Friday

I needed a few days to recover from the Friend of the Court day. Even though when I go there I always know that I have been doing what I am supposed to do and what they tell me to do, it is still very stressful for me. These days usually involve losing a lot of sleep and being stressed out beyond the breaking point. So, I took a couple of days off to relax and to catch up on my sleep once again.

It has been kind of hectic around here because of Doug’s strange schedule this last week. Normally he goes into work between 2am and 4am depending on the day. Since they had inventory he had to be there at 11pm one day and midnight the last couple of days. So that can really mess up the sleeping pattern!

A side from the freakish and hellish winds here Monday and Tuesday, the rest of the week has been cool and sometimes overcast. I love fall because of the cool weather. So, I have been happy. Since I live on the 8th floor, it has been strange to deal with things such as wind and rain.

We are headed to dinner in a bit to see a friend of ours. Yeah it is late, but she works the late shift now, so it is all good. I think that is about it, I should be back pretty regular now. Ciao!

Yesterday

Yesterday I had to be at Friend of the Court (child support) at 9:30am. Since Doug had to work inventory and had to be at work early, I just stayed up. He got home about 5am and I took a small nap.

I hate going to FOC. So, I went and spoke to my referee, who was surprised that I was called in because I have been making payments every month like I am supposed to. She told me it was Florida’s fault after looking at the file closer. Before this, I got paperwork in the mail to modify the child support down. Which I have filled out and now have to make an appointment with Rita.

When I got the paperwork I called her to find out what was going on. She told me and so I need to make an appointment to see her. This is a great thing. I was so exhausted yesterday. Well, I think that is about it. My Wii is calling…. Ciao!

Today, A Day in My Life

Today was one of those days that I have not gotten a lot of sleep. Honestly, the last few days have seen very little sleep. Somewhat caused my my new found addiction to Netflix on my Wii. I never realized what a totally life altering thing this could really be. I thought it would be cool to be able to watch movies instantly on my TV from Netflix while I waited for my other DVDs to show up in the mail.

Oh what I tangled web I weave. I set this up before my birthday last Wednesday, which is why I have been MIA basically. I have found so many TV series that I totally loved on the instant watch and have been steadily devouring those. At first it was Eureka. I had not seen the beginning of the series and so I got seasons 1-3.5 on the instant watch and started watching. Soon, that became all I watched! That little show is amazingly funny and smart.

So, then I found Silk Stalkings, which was on USA in the 90’s. Since I do not remember how that show began because I did not see the first couple of seasons, I added those too and have been watching those.

My latest addiction however is not a show that I had seen before, Veronica Mars. OMG, I never guessed that I would have fallen in love with a show about a teenaged sleuth and her high school life. But I did. There is only three seasons of this on the instant watch and I am on the third season. So, the love affair will end soon. Hopefully so will the addiction. We will see. Ciao!

Wow… and Birthday

I had to update my Live Writer yesterday and this is the first chance I have gotten to use the 2011 version. All I have to say is wow. It looks so much like MS Word, but for my blog! I am going to have to play with it of course and see what this baby can do! LOL.

Today is my birthday, happy birthday to me! There have been some things going on, so that is why I have not been here lately. I will be back to posting normally soon though. School stuff is killing me! I will explain it all soon, I promise. Ciao!

Anniversary and Birthday

Tonight Doug and I are celebrating our five (5) year anniversary of being together. It has not always been easy being here ( that is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!!). I have also been in Michigan for five years as well. He is taking me back to Ruth Chris tonight for dinner and I am really looking forward to it! Our anniversary is actually on Monday, but since our weekday schedule will not allow for this kind of night out, we are doing it tonight instead. I don’t really care anyway.

My birthday is two days after our anniversary (Wednesday the 20th). I will be 36. I am still not sure how I feel about this, but since it will happen even if I am not happy about it, I might as well accept it. It has been rough getting here really.

School is okay, I guess. There are some things going on that I can not write about yet there. Mainly because if I think about them too much I get really pissed off. I have a plan B in the works so we will see. Right now I have an 85% in my statistics class, so I am thrilled! Well, I am going to get going. Got some stuff to do today… Ciao!
