Past few days...

This weekend was a lot of fun! Friday morning my dad and I went out to play a round of golf and then Friday night Brion and I went to Max and Ermas, played putt-putt, the got ice cream at Baskin Robbins! Saturday night we got pizza at Tony Boom-Bazz then saw 'Step Brothers'. It was hillarious, lots of language but hilarious! Sunday we went shopping! Like all day, lol. We went up to the outlet malls in Edinburg and then went to the Greenwood Park Mall. The Mall had all my favorite usual stores instead of driving around Louisville. Let's just say I think I accomplished a years worth of shopping for about $200. Which isn't too shabby!

Yesterday I did some online shopping since I needed a pair of khakis for school. I orded them online from Old Navy along with another pair of pants that were only $10. It was neat. I also stocked up on my favorite undershirts while on the website so I don't have to go to the store and dig through the pile for my size and colors.

Last night I made a trip out to Dicks to get my own set of golf clubs. I found a set I really like and they were on sale for real!!!! They are usually $350 and I got them for $170. Not too bad. A bit more than I wanted to spend but a good deal in the golfing world.

This morning I had the wonderful task of cleaning my room, hanging up all my new clothes, organizing my closet so that my clubs would fit, and getting everything ready for school...or semi-ready.

I went to the license branch this afternoon to renew my tags and yeah - it was a rip off! And i went swimming with two 2 year olds and two 1 year olds! It was fun!

Car Maintence Sucks!

Yesterday I went to Kohl's 8am -10pm sale. I'd never been to their ealy sale but I will have to say it was worth it. It actually wasn't busy and I got some really good deals! I got a pair of New Balance tennis shoes for $35 (normally $60), a water bottle thing for $4 (I almost bought one at Dick's for $12), I also got three shirts for $12-20 each and I got 2 baby outfits for Matthew for $4! It was actually a really good sale!

I also took my car to get an oil change and new wiper blades at Penzoil and Mr. Davis hooked me up, lol. Then I went to get tires on my car (that was a little pricey, lol). While there they told me I needed brakes on my car so I did that today. Goodness, Brakeway's $99 brake job is a joke. It cost me $200!

Salons and Tires

Well I found a new salon this past week...I forgot to blog about it earlier. I went to Scorpio Salon & Spa on Charlestown Road. I really enjoyed it! It was really nice! I thought overall it was a little expensive but the place was really nice.

I need to get some tires on my car! I have about 3 weeks left of summer vacation left and I need to do some car maintance before I go back. I'm trying to decide between Sears, Pep Boys, or Ken Towry. I'm open to suggestions!

Cave City!

I'm back from Cave City, KY...our little mini vaca. It was actually lots of fun! We left early on Saturday morning got to Mammoth Cave and most of the tours were sold out already! But we went on the New Entrance tour. It was fun and cool...which was awesome since it was really hot! After that we checked in at the hotel, got cleaned up, ate lunch/dinner then went to the Action Park. The alpine slide's chair lift was broke so we didn't get to do that. So we went and paid for our horse rides! Checked in at the stables and then Brion became a chicken and didn't do it! But I still rode! Bill was my horse and he was fun! After that we went to find a store and had to settle for Family Dollar, lol, and then we got ice cream at Dairy Queen. Then we realized everything there closes at like 7 so we went to the hotel and got in the pool. Then we watched tv, lol, we're exciting I know!

Sunday we woke up and had this great idea to go eat at a diner and then go to Kentucky Down Under. It was acutally a lot of fun and I even got to pet a Kangaroo! I loved it!

All in all it was a fun trip...but I wish Brion would have rode a horse with me. I don't know though. Anywho, I had fun!

Pics are on Facebook!

Vaca Plans!!!!!!

Wow! I've really been wanting to go on vacation somewhere and somehow this summer but it hasn't really been working out. People have other plans or plan on going on vacation later on. Brion just started a new job about 3 months ago and he can't get off due to the big buyout. But I really wanna go somewhere! Lol...what's the point of being off for the whole summer without going anywhere!

Well, my wonderful boyfriend has arranged (with very little assistance) a mini vaca! OMG and I getta go somewhere I've always wanted to go!!!!!! You'll never guess...so I'll just tell you...we're going to...KENTUCKY! Lol, So it's no dream vaca but it'll be a fun weekend. We're going to leave early on Saturday morning and come home on Sunday. We're going down to Cave City, KY. We plan to attend Mammoth Cave for a tour and some hiking and the Kentucky Adventure Park. The KY Adventure Park has an alpine slide, bumber boats, go karts, putt-putt, horseback riding, etc. That place should be fun. And if all else fails and it sucks Kentucky Down Under is nearby and so is Gun Town Mountain and Beech Bend. Plus Mammoth Cave has like 10 tours so I'm sure we'll find things to do. And it's only 2 days lol. And we'll have to be home on Sunday afternoon since Brion has to be back to work on Monday and will have to go to the store and such. Me...not so much as far as plans.

I also got my schedule for the school year:
Period Class
1 Chemistry 1
2 Chemistry 1 Honors
3 Chemistry 1
4 Chemistry 2
5 Chemistry 1
6 Planning
7 Chemistry 1 Honors

This weekend wasn't too exciting, lol. Friday Brion and I went to Sportstime (my favorite pizza place) and it was good! We also went grocery shopping for the week at Walmart, which we usually do on Sunday but that's ok!

Saturday we went to a cookout at B's bosses house. It was ok. I didn't really want to go but overall it wasn't too bad. I especially enjoyed their kids and the banana ice cream! Only problem is now I have 8 mosquito bites that itch! After the cookout we went back to his house and watched Legally Blonde. Hmmm....payback for having to watch Star Trek.

Sunday we went on the search for a new watch for me. I'm the pickiest person when it comes to a lot of things like food, purses, clothes, and watches. So we went to Mall St. Matthews and I searched and searched and searched. I eventually went to Dillards as a last resort and ended up buying two watches.






Overall it was an okay weekend...I've had better, lol.

Mundane Monday

I'm so ready to go back to work!!!!! Goodness. Today wasn't too bad, I managed to stay busy.

I babysat matthew (the meanest but cutest baby in the world) while Misty went to sell some gold, lol. I also worked on some chemistry stuff. I made a diagnostic test to give in Chemistry 2 to see what the kids remember. I uploaded some music to iTunes and then I watched 3 episodes of John and Kate plus 8 on Demand (so there's no commercials and each episode is 23 minutes). I watched the shows when Matthew finally fell asleep!

Weekend Fun!

Friday was the 4th of July...national holiday - not really a celebrated one to me though. Brion and I went out for dinner at Pizza Hut and hung out for a while until we decided to go watch the fireworks on the river. We looked it up online and thought it started at 10. We got there at 9:45 and left at 10:50 without seeing any fireworks! When we left we went to Dairy Queen for drinks/blizzards and at 11 we finally got to see the fireworks from the drive through at Dairy Queen, lol.

Saturday we started our travels to Holiday World!!!!! We had a great ride playing slug bug and bruiser cruiser! We got there...and no offense Brion, but he's not too much fun at amusement parks. He has to watch each ride a few times before deciding to ride or not. In the end we ended up riding the scrambler, the Raven, and Paul Revere's Midnight Ride. That's it in the park. In Splashing Safari we got to ride Bakuli and Zoombabwe. We also played in the wave pool and lazy river. I dunno. I mean I understand that he doesn't usually do much at amusement parks but I usually do everything so it was kind of a dissapointment to me. I've always gone as a kids and loved it and it was the worst trip there ever! However after a drive home of not talking for an hour and a half, I had some time to cool off (and shower to get all the chlorine off) and we went to dinner at Our Best (btw - not so good). We're going to try again in the fall, when it's not hot, and no water park. I'm going to make sure he eats breakfast and such and we're just going to have a good time. My goal is for him to ride more than 3 things!

Today Lynn came over! It was fun but too short...plus I think Midnight was more excited to see her than anyone, lol! He kinda took centerstage. Oh well! It was nice to hang out for a little bit again!

Then Brion and I went to lunch at BW's and decided to go see Get Smart. It was a really good movie! Way better than I expected! We then embarked on our weekly journey to Walmart and then I came home. But it was a really good day!

Feelings....

Goodness, I'm starting to feel better now...I just want my nose/throat to heal. Once that is done I'll think I'll be ok...good thing is since I'm feeling better I don't have to go back to immediate care tomorrow, or at least so far I don't!

Found out a good thing this morning...Midnight doesn't have cancer!!!! He does have arthritis and may have cushings disease but for now he's ok...just needs so medicine, some walks, and some pet stairs! Only bad thing is I have to teach him how to use those stairs! Pray for me to have patience.

I've been babysittting my mean little nephew a lot recently. Lol...he's adorable, precious and mean! He's so spoiled rotten and he knows it at 6 weeks old. He doesn't want to sleep in his crib or playpen but wants to be near someone...so he's currently on the couch next to me snoring. I didn't know babies could snore!

I get to go to Holiday World on saturday if the weather cooperates! I'm just hoping that the trip is fun and Brion just rides the stupid rides! I dunno...there's always force I guess!
