New page for my blog, that is weird, I don't want to set up a Google account!

Sorry I didn't call Jen, but I got distracted. That would be most interesting if we could read the juicy things going on in your life.

Went roller skating with Tatyana this weekend, and Robert her friend. We had a smashing good time and she did most excellent on her skates. I suggested we go next weekend too. We're supposed to have Heather this weekend. I hope so. I enjoy having her around.

Had a good weekend, but TJ said something rude to me this morning and it set the wrong way with me. I've been sulking and quiet most of the day.

Teresa is on vacation all week, yeah for Teresa. I miss her!

I'm ready for a three day weekend~

Hello!

Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. To think I have the ordasity to criticize Melissa for not updating and then I do the very same thing!

Been busy with work. It is so awesome! I just love it here. I work with the best people and it's so mellow and laid back compared to the pressure of WBC. I miss everyone there but not the stress of it all. It is weird just how happy I truly am here. What a blessing He has given to me.

I am so far behind reading Jen's blog, but I will get caught up. I'm very much so looking forward to you coming to visit us here. I can hardly wait to meet you and your family.

My girlfriend Jessica from WBC called me on Sunday and I chatted with her for 20 minutes or so. I called Jen twice on Sunday and it just rang and rang, then I hung up and called back and it was busy. I thought that was kind of weird but I tried. Jessica is pregnant and due in June. She is getting bigger and she said her butt is too, but that's part of the pregnancy.

I got a new outfit from JCPenney's that is the bomb. I wore it yesterday for the first time. It feels good to dress up, how I want to but also to dress more casual than the other place.

Tatyana has lost two teeth now. She is growing up so quickly but into a beautiful young lady. She is just so cute! She tells me yesterday that another tooth on top is also loose, but she's trying to make it loose too. I told her to leave it alone.

We need to get a family portrait done here soon. It's been a while since we've had one together. Well, going to go for now. I'll write again next week probably....Until then...

Mood: Outstanding!

Happy New Year

Hello all,

Just a quick note to say I'm alive and lovin life! Job is fantastic, marriage is the same old, Taty is almost going to lose her second tooth and growing like a weed and doing great in school. Christmas was awesome. Got a diamond necklace that is called the circle of love with an entire karat in a circle. Taty got me a lovely chain for the other diamond that I wear a lot.

The 3rd was my mom's birthday so we took her to Red Lobster and also got her a Bill Gaither Trio tape that she just loved! Had a great New Year. Nothing overly exciting to report. Spent part of lunch with Teresa today. We went to Ross and bought a shirt a piece. I've gotten 5 new shirts, one suade skirt, pair of black boots, and a pair of flat black shoes.

Fresh~

I am so loving it here! I am just so excited and things are going better than could be expected. I love all of the staff and what I do. What a fantastic match, God couldn't have done better.

Went yesterday at lunch time back to Everest to do the gift exchange. Sterling drew my name and he got me a $15 gift card for Bath & Beyond. It was a better present than Michael's last year. Although I love the book the color of purple. He did well being very new and not knowing me very well.

To Karen if you are still reading my blog, a special high to you and I hope you are adjusting ok without me. NOt as if I am special or anything, I just did a lot of updating for you and I doubt Melanie has much time to do anything with all the extra things they have her do outside of your office. I miss you and will see you again soon. You can always post a comment if you would like.

I'll catch up on reading Jen's blog here soon. What I did read didn't mention too much about Brain so I wonder what is up with him???

Love to all, T

One of the last...

Probably one of the last posts for a while. We are paying off our lap top but it might be a while even at that rate before I can blog. I don't know if I will have computer access or not. I don't know what is going to be going on, I just know that tomorrow is my last day here at Everest College. That is weird for me. It will be even weirder tomorrow.

I kind of wanted a party when I left and it isn't looking like I'm going to get one. The Financial Aid party is tomorrow beginning at 8:00 but that is just with them and their gift exchange. Then, it moves to the back room where there will be much food to eat and liquid to be drank. Then, I suppose it's back to the grind. I am not able to go to Laurel's party as I had changed my mind about because Tatyana'a church program is on Saturday and I have to have her at the church at 4:30 for practice, and they are going to eat a packed lunch provided from yours truly, MOM! It begins at 7:00 and is over 8:30 p.m. Laurel has gotten Zupan's to cater and Spanish Coffee's whipped up sounds soooo good. We can't miss Tatyana's thing. She has worked so hard for it.

I have one hell of a week with TJ. We have been fighting since Monday with this new job thing. Pretty much every thing I do pisses him off. I have been asked to leave 4 times in the last 2 days. I am seriously considering it. Sharing custody of Tatyana would work for me and I have verified with two different people that I could stay with them until I get my things together and get my own place. He thinks of course it's because we haven't had sex in a year and a half. That is NOT the case or I would have left a LONG time ago!

Melanie forbids me to leave. That is sweet. Reminds me of when Sireina, Melissa, Kelly and Jennifer left. Had a big old FAT party across the street. I have to leave early anyway tomorrow because I have to take my grandpa to dinner with the family at Red lobster. He is diabetic and I don't want to have to make him wait too much longer than he is used to.

I have sent everyone's blog and email address to my yahoo account so I can still tap into everyone.

I am very excited to begin a new journey for sure! There is soooo much opportunity for advancement, money to be made and growth in general. The bonuses that the employees get are going to floor me compared to being here and what we don't get any more. The employees gathering here is more than Corinthian does for any one employee, kind of sad really. Not my problem any more. I look forward to being appreciated for my skills and enhancing them to even better my fellow co-workers.

My day began in a most rude fashion and when I got to work, Kat had left the brand new coffee pot on AGAIN all night. Second day in a row. I was pissed off, vented to Cindy and now I'm fine.

I had finally contacted Donna to share the good news with her only to learn that death is still following her around so her friends Connie and Brian, well, he died and then a friend of hers father had just passed away so out the door she was headed to help aid someone else. I wonder when is someone going to be there for Donna? I wish I could be. I won't get to see her again probably and that sucks. I guess I'll have to get over it.

Bruce's cell is no longer working and that irritates me and probably him worse. He has no form of communication with his wife in California. We are going walking on Saturday together. I enjoy spending time with him, he allows me to vent and visa versa, plus he's like my brother as well.

Yes, I am

a little nervous. It will be a weird feeling. I remember when Melissa left about 2 years ago in December I think it was. I was very sad. Now it's me leaving! It is still quite shocking to me. Perhaps by Friday it will have sunk in that it's the end here. Laurel isn't in today. She got sick on the way to work. She is supposed to be interviewing people for my position. Guess that isn't happening today.

I'm bored! I won't have that problem for a long time to come. I like that idea!

The Answer is....

He has answered prayers! I got the job! I will be there first thing Monday morning at 8:30! Thanks everyone for the prayers. What a blessing! I am so happy, nervous and wow! :)

In His Hands

Well, it went really well and I'm giving it to Him to make happen. If it happens, I'm tickled Pink, Purple and a shade of Burgundy. If not, then that is ok too. He will take care of us as He always does and I have faith.

Fantastic weekend. Taty was such a lady at our gathering at Red Lion Inn. I have received compliments on her all day long. She was just a joy to have there. We sat next to Larry and Ron. Aileen and David sat at the table next to us. I didn't drink alcohol, just coffee and really good coffee at that! I was buzzing by the time we left. Got her to practice and then went to Jacquie's to get some stuff for Tatyana. A game, a small pool table, a doll and a small troll doll. Then, she got Tatyana for Christmas an apron and also a Bratz doll that is gorgeous, they all are to me, but one she doesn't have is a chore let me tell you! My Aunt got her for Christmas a huge bead assembly to make jewelry with and she is just going to scream over that. We got her the Bratz computer which is what I wanted to get her. She is so smart and this will only help her out. We have more shopping to do, like for the stocking stuffers. This will be an exciting year, since we have never stuffed stockings Ever. I guess I'm weird and the only one that has never done this. Ours in Christmas Eve too, not Christmas morning. It has always been that way, but since Grandma is gone, things are different. She ran the whole show and I always accepted that and made it our way of doing Christmas. We are making Christmas dinner this year and invited my mom over and are having a ham, perhaps a spiral ham, or honey baked ham. I'm going to make scalloped potatoes, but probably the Kraft kind with Velveeta instead of bake your own type. I can follow the directions on a box. I think then on Christmas Eve we will be going around to the different family members to give their gifts to them. We then will open one gift and save the rest for the morning of Christmas. I can wait. TJ and Taty went and spent over $300 but Taty informs me Less than $400 on me for Christmas. I can only imagine what I got....

Got my hair cut and colored over the weekend. Feels good and looked good until lunch time when it went flat because of pouring down rain. Oh well, I'm still having a good hair day!

Jen, I loved the picture of Zack, he looked really cute there in that picture, and he is right by way that you are "bootiful!"
