Hello!

December 29, 2008

How was everyone’s holidays? Ours went well. And the house looked as if a tornado blew through! More updates soon, I promise!!
Countdown to school: 7 days.

Holidays

December 23, 2008

I love the holidays. I love Christmas. I do. The spirit of giving gifts that are carefully thought out without a hidden agenda of getting something in return… well that’s just super! The family gathering together and eating good food while enjoying each other’s company….I love it.
My parents have cut back on the holiday extravaganzas, [...]

Wanderful!

December 20, 2008

One of the blogs I like to check out online is Wanderful. Check it out!
www.wanderful.us
It follows Mark and Katie and their Chihuahua Mister on the road trip across America. I follow them across the map and envy them since this is the trip that Isaac and I are planning. Green with envy I tell you!
They [...]

New look and such.

December 19, 2008

So, as you can see, the blog has a new look and title and such.
Why?
I got my nursing school schedule, email, passwords, etc. in the mail today which means my journey is really beginning. School starts in two weeks and two days. Im a bit nervous though to be honest. But so excited!!

You’re Sooo Asian!!

“Here you go Teddy,” I said, tossing him his mail.
We share a mailbox and happened to have a paystub and red envelope a piece.
I opened the red envelope first revealing a holiday card from my two nurse managers. Well, that was nice!
I turned to my paystub next.
Teddy was opening the red envelope and looking inside. [...]

You’re so sexy…kinda.

December 17, 2008

My husband is cute. Like more than cute. Like I have to double take and stare cute.
He’s one of those people that doesn’t have to put any effort into their looks. Isaac is a perfect example. He rolls out of bed 12 minutes before work, takes a 2 minute shower, throws on his clothes and [...]

I wrestled a crackhead!

December 15, 2008

“How was your day?” I asked my husband after answering his phone call during my overnight shift at work.
“Great!”, he replied, “I wrestled a crackhead!”
I worry for him sometimes, but I have to laugh. His enthusiasm for his job cracks me up. And, well, it is what got him 3 promotions in exactly a year. [...]

Business in the front, party down the back.

December 14, 2008

That’s right. A mullet.
This is a random post about a family who was here for a day in the PICU. I’m really only putting it here for the amusement of my mother who enjoys any story where a mullet comes into play. And, well, I feel some back history is needed to put it all [...]

The first 2 weeks…

December 13, 2008

I am, hopefully, back with more regularity!! X-mas is only a week away and the hubby and I are ever-so-slowly (at a snail’s pace) getting settled in our new home.
I will highlight some of the key events from our first 2 weeks:
-Setting up the Christmas tree and spacing the ornaments out perfectly.
-The kittens climbing the [...]

Moving Day!

December 4, 2008

Well, folks, we’re a little over halfway moved in. And it feels so good!
I have to dig my super nifty camera out of a box so that I can take pictures! Isaac’s brother, David, spent the whole day helping us. Which was awesome, cause we couldn’t have done it alone. No way! We still quite [...]
