AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Wow what a day! It started out slow, which is odd for month end (da da da!) but then as people left for Showcase, it got busier, and then slow and then busier, it was weird.

Then i had a consultant freak out at me about some stupid rule, which I think is stupid, but its a rule, and she wanted to talk to a manager, and the manager wanted me to calm her down, which didn't go so well, so you can see where I'm going with this! AHHH!

Tons of calls, tons of questions on rules that have been in effect FOREVER! Caused quite a steer. Needless to say the good news: Mom and I got the bedset I want, and the Twins won! HOORAY!

I am just glad the weekend is tomorrow! I also talked to a male consultant, which doesn't happen all to often, but he was SUPER nice!

I plan to relax Friday night, Dad is headed to chicago and kevin is at camp for a week, so its going to be mom and I time, which is nice! We are going to go shopping Saturday and probably lounge around the pool, and then sunday VBS starts, so yah! Then next week I get paid to work at VBS, which I'm EXCITED about! Good times!

I think I am kinda sad like I am offically moving out, but I know I will be back, but I want to try to not come home like every weekend, so...... It's scary, and I could use your prayers!

Love ya all! Pray about tomorrow, if anything! haha! :)

Another great day, but crazy busy tomorrow!

MONTH END!! DA DA DA, think scary music! It's every month end when consultant need to get there qualifying orders in, so before the month ends and after the month starts are CRAZY BUSY! AHHHHH!!

hopefully this one isn't so bad because Showcase is going on, which is a convention for Consultants, I'm hoping I get to help out some year though.

Well, work was good. I have a consultant who I talk to everyday and she is SOOOO nice and really funny too! Her name is Berna Deen, isn't that a crazy name, i like it!

twins lost today which was sad, but hopefully we come back tomorrow! better than our last series with chicago, since they swept us, but we have one 2-3, and one more tomorrow.

now kev just left for camp for the weekend, and all next week! HALLEJUAH! we've been getting a long better but I am glad that he will be gone for awhile, now i can blast the air in my room, hooray!

he's been very nice lately though, so that's good! then i got the lease from my landlord, and this makes it real that I'm moving out, so I'm scared and excited! PRAY FOR ME! love you all!

Another great day was had!

HOORAY! Its been exciting! The Twins won again, woooo. Got into a bit of a tif with Kev, and he apologized, its sad when the highlight of your day is your brother apologizing, but he doesn't do it that often, so it was nice. Plus he's going to camp all next week! FREEDOM!

Been planning to do some shopping this weekend for my new place, I feel as though I have NOTHING!

work went pretty good, I love when the consultant calls in all mad and I can't change anything, but its pretty funny! I stuck my ground, so there.

we did some more projects, which is always a good time. nothing else too exciting. I am getting hungry, but think I am just going to go to bed! YAH me!

had a good time with God tonight! Go God! :)

Have a great night!

Beautiful day was had! Hooray!

Today was a great day! Which is crazy, especially because it was a monday! It was actually good calls, it went pretty quickly too. I also found out that I got the okay to volunteer for my churches VBS program, which is exciting, and my sister said she would take Lisa and I to a Twins game, and the Twins dominated today! plus the Olympics are coming up. I'm going shopping for my new place, which, despite being nervous about, I am excited too.

I hate when I get down about work and not so praiseworthy to God, and then when my day is good, I am SOOO praiseworthy towards God. Its something I'm working on and would appreciate your prayers.

I still have a lot going on, which is exciting! Lisa's b-day is soon, the Twins game, Pod scrapbooking, packing/moving in, Duluth trip, Thanksgiving trip, my b-day, Christmas, and the skating season is coming up soon! HOORAY! things are good.

Have a great night! :)

FABULOUS weekend!

It was such a great weekend, I'm kinda sad to see it end!

It started with our Taylors Falls trips, first off, i keep saying Taylor Falls, with no S, but there is an S! Okay, so we invited Andrea and her son, and she was a no show, and we waited for an hour. So no worries, we were going to have fun anyway.

The car ride was very short, we sang songs talked, and just relaxed in a comfortable silence. I think we all were thinking that it is going to be nice to just get away and relax. I think it was nice not to have the baby with us!

We went to subway to grab lunch when we got closer to Taylors Falls, and then when we got into town, which is like Mayberry, if you've ever seen the Andy Griffith show. Anyway, we bought boat tickets, and then made a Subway and the food we brough picnic. Good times, very pretty town, and very hilly, felt like we went out somewhere far away, not somewhere still in MN!

After lunch we went on some walking trails, which is beautiful. Took lots of pictures, and saw lots of rock climbers, scary! It was SOOOO hot outside too! AHHH! oh well!

Then we went on the boat ride, which was wonderful. we went on the longer trip, so it was less crowded, and we relaxed and it was beautiful. We went by some people in a canoe and a guy mooned us, it was pretty funny, especially with Jill scrambling to get a picture. Then he did it again, while he was playing catch, on our way back through! This time Jill was ready!

After the boat tour we actually went into Wisconsin to a Petting Zoo farm , called Fawn Doe Rosa, which i thought was supposed to be Fonderosa, like Ponderosa the restauraunt, and had no idea where we were going, but it was very cool. It was a petting zoo, but the animals walked around and you could buy food so you can feed them. A deer came right up to us, and scared me. I was kinda excited, it was Rudolph! haha!

After that we went back into MN and Taylors Falls and went to the 50's Drive in, and it was SOOOO good. We got some root beer floats, WONDERFUL! The waitresses were in poodle skirts too, I was jealous! i had a pink poodle skirt when I was little, i loved that thing!

After that it was about 6:00, and we walked through town and then headed home. It was a great trip, Jill had been there a bunch of times, and so she wanted us to see it! It felt good to hang out with co-workers and never once any brought up having a drink or anything like that.

YAH!

Then today started out with Church. Jon preached, which was great. It was about trust. Something I need to work on. Then i found out that there was going to be a family togetherness thing at our friends house for Kevin (his b-day today) and Adam's (his b-day yesterday). That was fun. We grilled, and hung out. watched my dad and his close friend play ping pong, like they did in college! good times were had by all. good b-day cake too!

The Twins also won, HOORAY! I'm kinda nervous because the White Sox are in town, so hopefully we KILL them! That would be nice!

Now, I just shaved my legs, and feeling ready for the week. Had my devotion and prayer time and I'm ready to go! pray for me, last week was kinda rough!

Thanks!

Taylors Falls Trip!

A BLAST WAS HAD!! I am not going to go into too many details today, because I am SUPER tired. But we had fun, no Andrea, of course...

What else is new, no message or nothing. I hate when people do this.

We walked on trails, had a picnic, went on a boat tour and got mooned by a guy, FUNNY, went to a petting zoo in Wisconsin, had FABULOUS food at a 50's restaurant, walked around Taylors Falls, and hung out!

It was great. It was SOOOO hot, and I wore pants and shoes, dumb move.

Came home, watched the Twins win, and swam with dad for a bit. We raised like we used to when i was a kid, and I still can beat him! haha!

Well, i will post more details later, I need to go to bed! LOVE!

The week is OVER!

HALLEJUAH!!! :)

Today was a not so good day! It started with getting poured on by the sudden rain storm, and people laughing at me as I ran from the furthest parking spot to the building!

Then bad calls, more bad calls, got to leave early, so that was nice!

Went to Walmart and got some stuff for tomorrow, I'm SOOOO excited! It's going to be fun.

And then i got home craving pizza, and I walk in and dad says "There's pizza in the fridge, if you want some!" nice huh?

Weekend Plans:

Taylor Falls trip tomorrow
Depends on time back, hang with Sara saturday night or Sunday afternoon

Saturday or Sunday:
Apartment shopping, which i'm excited about!

Have a great weekend everyone! please pray about my job, thanks!

Semi-good day!

YAH! We are that much closer to the weekend! Still working on some framing situations, but other calls went pretty good! very excited about the pod trip this weekend! YAH!

Twins had an off day today, so we will see how they do tomorrow! GO TWINKS! Have a great night everyone! :)

STUPID maintaining!

GRRR, but now to the good stuff:

Saturday's got cancelled, HOORAY!! I don't have to get up early! I am also excited about my pod trip this weekend, and then getting ready to move! AHHHH! scary, but exciting!

Work was good! I had a training meeting called "Soft Skills", which was basically about being nice to the consultant, and we had a fun video too! It was good!

There was a slight mishap with a consultant right before, but things are good! I could really use your prayers!!

Have a great night! :)

Great day actually, can you believe it, and on a monday, no less!

It was a good day! It went rather quickly, the sad thing though was Lisa got pink eye and wasn't at work. The good part, I had my review, and it went FABULOUSLY! hooray!

just ready for the week to be over. I've been looking at stuff to buy for my new place, and I think mom and i are going to go shopping, and garage saleing soon! HOORAY! I'm very excited!

well, pray for me to have a good week, and I'll check in tomorrow! LOVE!

PS Twins got slaughtered, enough said!

I am ready for the week ahead, to be over! HAHA!

I made it home, and I was worried! Haha, what a great weekend! Church was good this morning, at Jackie's in the cities, and then we went to bdub's, not sure how to spell the nickname. They have this crazy game going on where you can play trivia, and they give you clues as to what the answer isn't and then at the end they give you a clue as to what the answer is, and I didn't know that, and Jackie finally interveened and told me why I was getting everything wrong! OH WELL!

Then we went to IKEA, which was great! SUPER great store, and got some ideas, not sure about the colors, so I think we are going to hold off until we get a main color! I'm so excited about moving now, I've been doing some SUPER cleaning in my room, and its going really well. I should have a garage sale with all my old clothes, its CRAZY! how much i forget about something i had, or something that doesn't fit anymore! I am started now, so I don't have so much to do down the road. Hopefully i can get most of it done now, since i'm moving in about a month and a half! YAH!

if you are my facebook friend, check out the BEFORE pictures of the place!

My drive home went WONDERFULLY, and then I came home and chilled! excited about next weekend, because I'm going to Taylor Falls with my co-workers, so that should be fun!

have a great week,and please pray for my sanity! :)

BeaUtiful day!

What a great day! I am typing this from my sisters place, and we are having a blast! YAH! So, I am sure most of you want to know how the meeting went this morning, and it went FABULOUSLY. At first it sounded like there was going to be a switch in who stays where, which freaked me out, but now its all good, so I'm excited. So after that Jackie and I went to Mills Fleet and got Kevy a gift card, and then hung out with the family. They are so great, it was really fun. My cousins are SUPER cute! Tommy is 2, and it was him and kevys b-day, so we swam and played games! Good times, except for the weather!

Then we hung out for a bit at home, and then drove to Jackie's, which was SUPER easy, and the Twins dominated tonight, which was great!

Then we watched Step-up, which is a WONDERFUL movie. I am also getting ideas for my place from Jackie, since she has some really cute stuff!

So tomorrow I am going to church with her, and then to IKEA to look around! SUPER excited. I kinda had a bad day yesterday, so it was nice to be able to chill out and everything and find out good things about the place I'm moving into! I feel so much better, i don't know why I doubt the Lord so much and then he gives me the old "I told you not to worry" speech! HAHA!

Also my favorite gymnasts made the Olympic team, which i'm SUPER excited about! Now i'm extied about the things coming up.

have a great night! :)

Worrywart me!

So i am meeting with my future landlord on Saturday! EEEKKKK! don't get me wrong, i'm excited, but SUPER nervous, and it doesn't help that my mom thinks i'm a wimp! SERIOUSLY mom! oh well, i guess its true!

its just going to be weird at first, and of course i have all those "I hope the girls like me" type thoughts going through my head! i really want it to work though, its literally a block from work! SHORT, super SHORT commute. the thing is though on saturday our relatives are coming over, and not sure how long this meeting is going to take, i've got TONS of questions! wish me luck!

the Twins finally start playing tomorrow. HOORAY! normalcy, if that's how you spell it! i'm thinking i am going to get off work early Friday, catch some of the game, go to bed, since i have to get up for work, and then work, maybe get out early, since its SUPER slow, and they are thinking of taking Saturday's off, and then meeting with Deb, my landlord, and the go home and hang out with the fam! they are so cute, especially little Tommy, who is 2, i think! i can't wait to just chill and swim!

i have so much going on that i planned before i knew i was moving out. i'm going to taylor falls with my co-workers, and the duluth over labor day weekend, which is when i move! AHHHH! why do i do this to myself, it will be okay though. i could really use your prayers.

then it was nathan's last day today, which was WAY sad! he will be missed, it literally was SUPER quiet after he left. we did have a tornado drill and go to go to the tunnel! fun times! i got yelled at by an angry consultant, not so fun! i wish i knew the future, but I just gotta trust God!

i've been looking for churches in the area though, so hopefully that goes well. i know once i get settled things will be fun, but its the UNKNOWN that bothers me! AHHHHH! i need to go to bed!

have a great night, love u all! will post my address when i have it, since i love mail! bye!

Lazy day, hooray!

Today was pretty good! i guess you could say i've been freaking out about moving, and my mom and i kinda got into it, which doesn't happen a lot, but we both apologize and I went for a swim, and then dad came home with news that his co-workers son had died in a car accident, and I think that kinda put it in perspective for me.

i am getting excited to move though, started packing up more stuff today! I'm SUCH a pack rat. I found an old note I wrote to my dad saying that when I was 19 we would go to a toy store and get a Barbie and Ken doll and play all day, and had him sign it! with my handwriting still horrible, we are not sure if it was supposed to be my 19th or 23rd b-day! oh well, its fun!

then i chilled out, watched some TV, and am now getting ready for the weekend and spending time with the family! YAH!

well, pray for that family, and me too! love ya!

PS I just went through most of my stuff in my room!

I'm a MAJOR pack rat, and a dork too! SINCE i was little!! I found high school and college, and elementary stuff, AHHHH! I know! Plus I'm going to save it all, and show to my kids, they'll laugh at how dorky there mom is!! haha! :)

I have tomorrow off! HOORAY!

Today was a pretty good day, but knowing that I have tomorrow off makes it SOOO much better. nothing exciting really happened, my podmates and I are planning a farewell party for our co-worker Nathan, who is HILARIOUS, we are going to miss him, and planning a welcome back for Jill, who finally came back from being in the warehouse helping out for the past couple months. YAH for the pod being together again!

We decided to get Nathan a card, so we got him a Superman one after work, he loves Superman, so that will be fun!

Then I came home to find the AL vs NL All star game still going on, it went 15 innings! CRAZINESS, but the AL did win, so that means if the Twins make it to the world series, we get home court (?) advantage, common twinkies!! :)

Well, tomorrow I have plans of being in the sun and reading, and sleeping in!! YAH! Plus my relative come up on Saturday which I'm excited about as well!

have a great night! :)

Morneau won the Homerun Derby!

YAH! That was the highlight of the day! although I've been planning and looking around at stuff to buy for my new place! I'm SOOOO excited! still nervous, but excited too! Please pray!

Today was not a good day, one consultant was like "How long have you worked there?" I hate when they do that, it is so rude and insulting!

But I did find out that Lisa's pastor is going to let us stay at his house in Duluth, so we don't have to get a hotel room, how exciting!

I am very excited about everything coming up, July: Family b-day party on Sat. Taylor Falls trip with the pod and AJ.

August: Olympics
Sept: Moving out, Duluth with Lisa
Oct: Arizona trip
Nov: my birfday!
Dec: Christmas
Jan: New Years
Feb: Florida possibly!
March: baseball starts!

(Wowzer, I've got TONS to look forward too, and that makes me feel better!) :)

The Lord is so BEAUTIFUL!

What a great day! It started out with church, and finding out Suzie was playing the piano. Mom told me her friend told her that suzie would be playing, but i didn't believe it because Suzie said she didn't get any breaks at camp, but she did, so that was fun! we didn't get a chance to catch up, but we talked and it was fun!

Then i came home and watched the Twins lose, which stunk, but now is the all-star break and that means I'm going to be bored at work, oh well! maybe i will actually work!! haha!

then i went to sara's and we went for a walk, i am so proud of us, that we keep doing this! then we played Wii, and she kicked my butt as usual, and then I drove to the place I'm moving into, it is SOOOO close to my job, which is great!

I just have to meet with the owners and Jamie (one of the girls I'll live with) and get things straited out! I am pretty excited, but nervous about moving out, because its like i have to grow up now! AHHHH! please pray for me!

have a great week! :)

I found a place to live!

YAH!

Before i tell you about that, let me tell you how my day started!

mom was bothering me to get up, since her friend is looking for a renter, so I finally got up, after a lot of coarsing and then we checked out the place, which is $200/month, and right down the road from work, which will be nice! I would get the basement area, and mom and i are going to decorate it, and fix it up, which is exciting!

then we went shopping, and got some pizza, and i watched the Twins win again! YAH!

now though, i don't feel so good, so i am going to bed! plans to hang out with sara tomorrow afternoon, probably go for a walk.

so, yah! things are looking good, except that i don't feel good! have a great night! :)

The weekend is here, the weekend is here!

Did I mention the weekend is here?

YAH!

Today was good, no magnet sorting, but something exciting happened! We got to go to the tunnel, because the tornado sirens went off, so that was fun. I'd never been to the tunnel before, so that was fun! It only lasted about 10 minutes, but fun none the less.

Let's see, here's my weekend schedule:

Yes, you saw correctly, blank! If you want to hang out let me know. although I have some leads on househunting, so I might be busy with that, if they ever get a hold of me!

Now the sad part: nathan is offically leaving CM, and he is SUPER funny, and he LOVES day of our lives, so we talk about it during work. He's great, and he bought pizza for everyone today! Super nice!

but my pod and i are planning our trip to Taylor Falls for day trip, a pod scrapbooking event, and lisa and i are trying to get jill to come with us to Duluth! I'm excited, ROADTRIPS! plus with my trip to Arizona in October, and november thanksgiving trip to grandma's! EXCITING!

the next weekend we are celebrating my SUPER cute 2nd cousins and my brothers b-day, my cousins are SOOOO CUTE! YAH!

have a great weekend, and call me! :)

PS! Scrubs is like the MOST HILARIOUS SHOW EVER!

I just thought I would share that with you guys! :)

Beautiful day in the neighborhood! :)

YAH! Today was fabulous! let me tell you why:

What is the best kind of work I like to do: BORING, TEDIOUS, REPETIVE, and that is what i got to do today! HOORAY! we got to sort CM magnets, and watch TV while doing it. Plus it was with the fun people. It was with Patricia, who I didn't really know, but she's SUPER funny, and loves Wheel of Fortune. Then Annie, who I usually talk to in the file room, and Nathan, who is leaving next week, which is SUPER sad!

We did that all night, and had our team meeting, which is always fun! I love the people I work with, same thing at PCI! haha!

The Twins won today, they were not playing well, but they rallied and ended up winning in extra innings! Plus tomorrow is the weekend, and hopefully I will sort magnets and get to watch the twins game!!

Things are going well! Please pray for me though, the food is my devil! Grrrrr satan.....

Have a great weekend, its techincally Friday! YAH!

Twins slotmachine!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! We got crushed 18-5 today against the red soxs, at least we are going to detroit, hopefully we can do some damage and get our heads back up!!!

today was a good day, although slow! weight check: MAINTAINING, which sucks!

pray for me! weekend is almost here, hooray! i might have a perspective to move in with another girl, i'll keep you posted!

GRRRRRRRRRRR Twins!

Man, they had it in the bag today, and then the bullpen comes in and loses it!! I am SOOOO upset! We should've won! They took the starter (nick blackburn, who is Joe mauer's twin) out of the game when he didn't have a lot of pitches, and the red sox's kept there pitcher in for more than 100 pitches, which is RARE! What the heck, maybe there was something going on that we didn't know about, but I know they should've won this game!

Oh well! now for the better news: Lisa, Jill, and possibily Andrea and AJ are all going to Taylor Falls on the 26th, which I am VERY excited about! We are going to take a boat ride, and its such a beautiful place, because of the falls, and so we are going to go! I'm super excited! also I might be moving to st. cloud, not sure yet! Which is VERY cool! so pray for me with all the things going on!

day was good today though, so that was nice! :)

LOOOOOONG DAY!!

It's over though, yah!

nothing to spectacular happened, even though the twins lost, which stunk! well, pray for me to get through the rest of the week! Thanks! :)

What a great weekend!

So let's see, what happened today! same as this whole weekend! haha! :)

church was good, very good sermon about gossiping and lying which I need to learn not to do!

Then I spent the day in the pool, literally! dad moved the grill towards the pool, so he cooked while we swam, and we ate while swimming!! It was very nice!

then it got kinda stormy out, so I came inside and dad and I lounged around some more. I made him watch some bridezillas episodes, which was hilarious and then we watched dateline together! i didn't know that he liked that show, so now it will probably be a Sunday night tradition!

well, its warm down here, so I think I am going to get ready for bed, since I have to work early tomorrow, and get cooled down!

have a great weekend, love ya!

Happy 5th of July! Just kidding!

What another great day, i slept in, went right to the pool with a book, and actually did some laps, so that was good. I have a great flip turn, watch out Michael Phelps! :)

Then i went to sara's, and we went to subway, and then watched Definetly, maybe which was really good, and then went for our walk for an hour, and then played Wii!! Good day, don't want the weekend to end!

PLUS, joe did amazing and the twins won again! hooray! :)

Enjoy the last day of the weekend! Love!

Happy 4th of July, what a beautiful day and country!

What a great day! It started with waking up when the Magnusons (family friends) came over. Then we proceeded to go to my neighbor Fuzzy's house, because he is SUPER crazy and funny and he came up with this idea to see if he could save some snow from April, and keep it in a box and see if we could have a snowball fight, so he got all the neighbors to come over, and we all sat around, with the big box unvailed and nothing was there! It was pretty funny since he is hilarious anyway, and he had carpet laid out and everything! oh well!

Then we grilled and chilled out by the pool, good times! When the magnuson's left I got my book and sat outside, I have to say I am slowly getting a tan! YAH!

Then my dad and i watched the twins win, that was fun! They dominated! :)

So yah, pretty good day. Tomorrow more pool time, and then i'm going to sara's to hang out and go for our usual walk!

Have a great weekend! :)

Happy pre 4th of jUly!

Despite my podmates not being at work, it went quickly and I got to leave early! HOORAY! I went shopping and bought a new pair of rollerblades, and the movie Stick it, which is a gymnastics movie and really funny!!

Now I am just chillin and we are having people over tomorrow, so it will be nice to be in the sun and chill out! YAH! We might go to the annandale parade, but you have to be there SUPER early, so I probably won't go! :)

Well, have a great 4th everyone!

The weekend is almost here!! HOORAY!

YAH! Today was good. I've been getting kinda antzy, as far as being at my job for as long as i have, and so I really need your prayers. I took a career assessment test, and they said that I would best be a GET THIS:

CUSTOMER SERVICE REP!! AHHH! I feel like Chandler on Friends, when he took one of those and it told him he would be best doing what he was originally!! AHHH! :)

Not sure what I want to do, but when I figure it out I will let you know! So this is what my weekend looks like:

Friday:
parade
magnusons over to swim/celebrate 4th
fireworks at magnusons

Saturday:
swim
hang with sara

Sunday:
relax!

PS the Twins won today! Hooray! Plus our pod did some filling things, so that was a nice break to do those! Hopefully its not too busy and we get to leave early, that would be nice! :)

Have a great weekend!

Wow, opposite end of the spectrum!

What a great day, except for some run ins with bad calls! i say run in's because with my luck I got the same mad consultant twice! GRRRR!! They drive me nuts some times with there demands! Oh well!

Work was good though, andrea was back, which was good. Then I got a lot of compliments from consultants, so that makes me feel good!

Please keep praying for me! Food is my enemy, basically!

Just glad that the weekend is going to be here earlier, so that's great. not sure what my plans are. Oh PS I bought a pair of MN Twins flip flops, I'm so excited, they are so cute! Also the twins won today, yah! :)

Have a great night! :)
