Happy New Year!

Good bye to 2010! Helloooo 2011!

 As I attempt to reflect on 2010 it was an ok year... I started to make some major decisions to start the "rest" of my life and ... 

Some Bad/Hard  Things:

• The ACT and learning how to conquer the EVIL EVIL People at The College Board! (still awaiting the results from my last test)
• My First Car Accident... (Not My Fault, Thank GOD!)
• Learning of Money management (good thing) and the fees that go with not keeping track of my money *Rolls Eyes*

• Learning how to drive the truck (stick shift)

Some Good Things:

• Getting To Volunteer at the many places I do  :)
• Learning to shut my big trap... *Snort*  *Hears a bunch of YA RIGHTS from readers*
• Trying and sometimes being successful at having a positive attitude.
• Meeting all of the awesome people I met this year. (Including the teachers at the Learning center I went to!)
• Getting Ready to go to College and Finding the perfect job for me in the Air Force Reserves!
• Finding how to pay for College!
• Receiving the "Fallen Officer" Scholarship Through The County Police (Also Where my dad is an LT!) Its also was an honor.

Goals (NOT Resolutions) For the New Year:

1. Grow Closer to God and work to heal the wounds that are still open
2. Loose some of that excess weight and attend "Basic Training"  workouts that I paid for :)
3. Survive till Graduation
4. Graduate
5. Go in to the AF Reserves
6. Do well at Basic (AFBMT) and Do well in my career.
7. Go To Nursing School (or take the pre reqs. for it)
8. Have fun! Enjoy life!

Ok, Now that I have bored you with my resolutions. I wish you and your family a very Blessed and Happy New Year!  I also want to hear some of the good & bad things that happened to you. I wanna hear your GOALS for 2011 !

Memories Of Jonah

So as Christmas is approaching; I find my self  remembering my brother Jonah and the other family members I have lost.  As some of you may know I lost my brother Jonah in 2006 to a rare genetic disease called Leukyodystrophy.  It effects the white coating around the brain and you slowly loose everything from motor skills to talking, and even your eye sight.  My brother was in the Wings pediatric hospice program for several years prior to him going to see Jesus in Heaven.  

Needless to say it's a sad time for my family and I do enjoy all of the family time,baking, the gifts,giving gifts and celebrating Jesus' Birthday.  Every year when the schools let out for Christmas (not winter) break,  I see  several brothers around our ages (mine and Jonah's)  come in to the restaurant I work at and I think that should be Jonah and I going out to eat and riding in my truck and spending time together.  But, God decided to take him away into heaven to life a full life that he never had the oppertunity to have.    It breaks my heart every time I see a pair of brothers like that.   I do tear up and I have to go into the kitchen and  gather my composure and push though it till the end of my shift when I cry on the way home.     Even though I know  he is in Heaven and having an amazing time, I feel there is this hole that can't be filled even with Christ being in my life.   I sometimes find my self putting on the happy act when I am feeling down just to keep everyone in the Chistmas cheer and not be a downer.
 
But, in all the sadness I have all of the memories of Jonah and It helps some but nothing more would help except to have him here with us Celebrating Christmas.

Now That I have most of you depressed.... I will have to find a humorous story/video. :)

Happy Almost Christmas!

Ok, so I still know we have 8 days till' Christmas but, I am in the spirit!   I thought you might wanna know whats up in my world :)  That is why you read this right?? Or do you fell sorry for me?  Ok, so probable a little bit of both. ;)

So, this past week was FUN! (NOT)

FINALS ARE DONE!!  I did very well on them:) Especially the 75 question anatomy final *crosses eyes*

My 20 year old truck FAILED its safety inspection and I had to go get that fixed... (MORE MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN)

My mom woke up sick on Wednesday and I got to play nurse.... after I got the truck re inspected I hit Walgreen's and bought : Gatorade (encase she vomited and did not want to eat) Saltine Crackers, Cold/Flu Meds (The pharmacist thought I was a drug dealer no doubt) 3 cans of chicken noodle soup, and some other things totaling $35...    I am happy to report she is feeling better and I have to figure out what to do with 50oz of Gatorade.  *sigh*

Then the dog has a yeast infection in his ear and he racked up a heck of a  bill at the vet all for some meds and ear cleaner.  

Now I must continue my planning on how I am going to manage My Christmas Cupcake orders and  the increase of hours I asked for at work :) Have an awesome rest of your work week and have an awesome weekend!

Being stressed is OVER!

And I am jumping up and down with glee!! THE ACT IS FINALLY OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  3 MONTHS of studying and $1,000 (yes $1,000) later I am more than confident that I did well on the ACT :)  I would like to thank everyone at the learning center who took the time to tutor me in the ways of the ACT!  Y'all are AWESOME!!! Especially Robin B.  I would also like to thank all of my friends (my extended family) for thinking of me and prying for me!! :)  Now I still have about 3 weeks till my results come back but I am not letting that keep me from PARTYING! 

Ok, now for the hospital update that I have been meaning to post....

So, there was not alot of  action going on *sigh* "The Before Christmas (Yes, I said the C word)  surgery slump."  I did meet a new float pool tech (Who is AWESOME)  & a new nurse (WHO IS AWESOME TOO!) (not as awesome as the rest of my girls and bill though) :) 

 Alright, I have some cookies with my name on them so, I bid you good bye  and I hope you have an awesome weekend!

A Funny.....

After getting my picture taken for our Christmas card this year we have found out I do not have a seizure disorder LOL!  We also went to the mall and dodged and weaved through all of the stupid people that can not walk.... So here is today's funny!  I think most of you who know me will laugh because these are all true

 HEHE!

Now to finish up my Upromise withdraw form >:D     TTFN!
