Happy Halloween!!!

Today was a great day too, which is nice, especially for a monday!! no complaints, and lots of cute trick-or-treaters. Hope everyone had a great Halloween, and can't wait for Christmas!! YAH! can I start playing Christmas music yet??

so much to look forward to, I love my birthday, the skating season starting, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and of course our DISNEY VACATION! YEEHA!! i LOVE this time of year! :)

PS Kim Kardashian split up with her hubby after 2 months, CRAZINESS!! wowza!

Mission Accomplished!!

So today was great, I slept in; which is always appreciated, and I did pretty much everything on my list! YAH!

I went for a walk, at Lake George, which was good to get outside, and I did some bible reading. I am making an organized list of bible verses that I like, so that when I need them I can pull out my list and look them up. Very helpful, especially when I have a hard day, although it seems like whenever you open your bible God will direct you to what you need.

I didn't do any shopping, but I've got some ideas, and I work at the mall, so it won't be hard to get some stuff, and try on at home, and return stuff that doesn't work! but I do want to go full out, jewlery, shoes, make-up, hair the whole 9  yards. It will be fun to get all dolled up, and I'm excited about a Sommers family wedding, we haven't had one in awhile! plus I can then take the outfit to Florida, as we want to get a fancy dinner (and Sam want to as well, so that means Kevin will!) and then I will have something nice to wear for Christmas Eve! YAH! i am such a frugal person, that I feel like I need to justify my spending. Like I bought a tan skirt a couple years ago that was $40, so I made sure I got my full use out of it!! and I did!! but now I feel like I wear that to all the weddings I go to so its nice to change it up!

i also just relaxed, did some cleaning, and vaccumed and it was just a very enjoyable day! can't wait for the weekend!!

Have a happy and safe Halloween tomorrow! please be safe! :)

YEAH, its finally the weekend!!

So I usually get nervous about working on Saturday's because its usually insane, but today was really good. I mean there were moments when I felt like I was running a marathon. but it was a good day. Its always fun to work with Dr. Carie, she rocks!!

but it feels like lately I've just been in a hurry; rushing to work, rushing to church after work, rushing here, there, everywhere. AHHHH!!!!! so it will be nice to just relax tonight and tomorrow. but i am setting a goal to go for a walk, read parts of my bible (since I haven't picked it up in awhile) and maybe do some shopping for my cousins wedding next weekend, so we shall see what all gets done. I'll let you know tomorrow night.

Enjoy the weekend!

Day off=Work Day!

So I slept in again, which is always appreciated! and then I basically cleaned, and threw in some relaxation. I meant to go for a walk, but I didn't; which I know feel guilty about! ughh!!!! and plus since its getting cold, I kind of feel like I'm going to become a "mall walker!!!" which is a good thing, I feel like I need to be able to keep up with my dad at Disney, so I'm incorporating more walking into my schedule, so then I get mad when I don't do it! GRRRRRR!!!!!

but today was good, got most of the basement vaccummed, which is good, because its almost time to decorate for Christmas! YAH! I LOVE this time of year!

Well have a good night everyone, its almost the weekend; although I have to work Saturday! oh well! :(

my family rocks!

So I went home this afternoon, and it was so much fun. I love my family we are all crazy weird. even kevy was in a good mood, which is hard to come by (especially on sundays when its sports day!)

dad and I did some trip planning, so 3 full days in a row at Disney adds up to 46 hours!! YAHOO!!! i LOVE it!

but my family is so funny, its always great to go home and hang out with them. I love that I am close enough to hang out with them when I feel like it, yet far enough that if I wanna get away, I can too! haha!
Here's hoping we all have a good week, at least I get wednesday off, which will be very nice! nighty night!

Today was FABULOUS!! nice, lazy Saturday!

i SLEPT in, and by slept, I mean really slept, which was SOOOO needed. I felt like I needed it to recharge my batteries. After that, some skating was on TV, so that's always nice, and then it was church time. Church was so great tonight, it was basically an open mike testimony time, to which I always think "I'm not going up there" and "stop crying all the time" well I didn't go up, but I bawled like a baby, its so great to hear other peoples testimonies! love it!
after church my girlfriend showed up, so that was nice to play catch up, and feel like I have a buddy at church. My friends at church are pretty much my parents friends from my home church, so its nice to be brave enough to connect with someone my age; although she showed up an hour late because she forgot about the service time change! haha!

so it was a good night, and then I got some pizza, and the weather outside was BEAUTIFUL! i am starting to walk a couple times a week, unfortunately because I slept in, I didnt get a chance too today, but I think I am going to go hang out with my parents tomorrow, so it would be nice to make time to go out to the back of the woods. Someone's testimony at church tonight talked about where you feel most connected with the Lord, do you have a certain spot, and I immediately thought of my parents back woods, its so calm and peaceful, I hope I get a chance to get out there tomorrow, it would be nice to take my bible, since I haven't been reading it as much as I used too, since I'm still scared of Revelation, and I hate skipping around in the bible. AHHHH!!! so my goal is to walk tomorrow, and read some bible verses, I'm starting to write down my favorites, so that way I have something to remember to look up, when I need too!

I'll have to post some here too! good reminder!! :)

Well have a good evening (okay morning!) and hopefully tomorrow goes SLOW!!!!!!!!!! :)

ITS THE WEEKEND!!! FINALLY!!!

Today was pretty rough, not gonna lie!! but i got through it, and now I've got the weekend to relax and regroup!! HOORAY!!

I cannot believe its almost November!! CRAZINESS!!! Have a great weekend everyone, we made it! :)

Wow, what a day!

It was both good and bad, not like overwhelmingly bad, but just LONG and short, if that makes any sense. It's MEA weekend, so I will be very excited when the kids are back in school. I'll just leave it at that, but I am pretty happy that the day is over and the weekend is quickly coming!! YAH! and very glad about how I'm taking it very well, which I am very excited about, before it just felt like "Oh great, a crappy day at work" now it feels like, sure it wasn't a great day, but tomorrow will be better (or in this case, tomorrow will be great since its Friday!) HOORAY!
sleep well, the weekend is quickly approaching! :)

I'm just so happy!

YAH! its a good feeling!!! I'm so happy, so very happy, I have the love of Jesus in my heart!! (old church song!) things are going well, and I just feel like I've been trying to have positive thoughts, and I think its workin.

although another fun co-worker is leaving, which stinks! how come all the mean, negative employees stay, and my buddies leave??? AHHH!!!

Oh well! what can you do!! better get some sleep!

night night, kiss kiss! (mine and Jackie's last words in 1989, I was a little young to catch on!)

Another great Monday!!! weeeee!!

I LOVE when I have good days at work!! and its getting closer and closer to our trip! YAH!!!

so happy! DWTS is great too, I cannot believe how awesome some of these celebrities are! I am nervous about eliminations though, because so many great competitiors are getting voted out, but I suppose I can't say anything because I don't vote! whoops!

I just talked to Betty today, and she's doing great, and loving her new job, which I am so happy to hear! YAH!

Have a great week everyone! :)

Today was GREAT! nice and relaxing, but I wasn't a total couch potato

I also went for a walk, and I think I went fast because its getting cold out, guess I'm gonna have to be a mall walker this winter! haha!
But today was great, slept in, watched some tv, and got laundry done. nice and relaxing; probably because one of my louder roomates was gone! :)

I feel like this is going to be a good week, so hopefully it is for you guys as well!

night night, sleep tight! Here's to a great week, let's think positively!!

Sleepover with the bestie

was so much fun! we met on Friday night at Pizza Ranch and then afterward did some shopping, and then we went back to her place and watched movies and hung out. We watched Spice World (Girl power!) and Tangled, which were both so good.

Then today we went for a jog/run/skip/walk which was so nice, I told her to kick my butt, and she kinda did!!! OUCH! but it was fun!

then I went to church, and now its chill time. nice to have a long weekend and have time to myself and time with others.

Good times and great oldies, cool 108!!!! have a great rest of the weekend everyone! :)

its finally the WEEKEND!!! wahoo!!

Yipee! today was a great day too, which is always helpful! after work I went to Jill's since she wanted to hang out for a bit, so that was fun, and now I'm just hanging out at home until Sara gets off work and then we are going to have a sleepover, which I am so excited about! Good times!

Well have a great Friday, the weekend is almost here for everyone else!

Wow,the week is still going good!

I mean I know everyone has good days and bad days at work, but this is ridiculous!! I can't remember the last time i had a great couple of days! HOORAY! and tomorrow is techinically Friday, and I have three days off! PRAISEALLUAH!!!

very happy! and excited to hang out with my bestie Sara this weekend! Can't wait to just chill out! :)

Until next time!

PS best quote my dad just said "Jesus is a good buddy to have on your side!" LOVE IT! bye!

Don't you hate that moment when you say something mean to someone you love....

just to get under there skin! and as soon as you start saying it, you want to stop, but you want to hurt them for hurting you, and what did my sister do? she was helping me, wow people can be such jerks sometimes! especially me!
I am so sorry sissy!

Then you just remember all the times you've hurt someone, and its impossible to take words back, which stinks!

So on to better news, today was really great; especially for a monday! its usually crazy busy and with Betty gone, I had to open, but it was totally fine, but then I couldn't get the computer on, because I never open, and so finally I was like "okay breathe, and please help Lord!" and then the computer worked! VOLIA!!!! YAH!

so good day was had, and I am very glad I have a short week! and a LONG weekend! WAHOO!!!!

Have a great week everyone!!!

today was SOOOOO great, and exactly what the doctor ordered

It was just very relaxing, I did some cleaning and laundry; and afterwards proceeded to spill juice on my jeans, so annoyed! but anyway it was a good relaxing day.

also got together with Lisa and we went out for lunch, so that was fun too! its so hard to stay connected with old co-workers, which is worrying me about Betty, but I get together alot with Lisa and Jill, so that's always nice.

Well prayers would defintely be appreciated for this week, as we get used to be one man short! Thanks!

God Bless,
Kristin

Saturday with my favorite Doctor!

YAH dr. watson was in town filling in today, I love when she's here, so is so great! so it was a good day, it was busy, but it wasn't "I am going to kill myself busy" so that was nice!

after work I went straight to church, which was great. I love WORSHIP!! such a great thing, and after the stressful week I had, it was just nice to sing to the Lord. The worship leader brought up a good point, and said that an older guy that went to his home church had a pretty bad voice, and would always apologize for his voice, and the worship leader was like "God doesn't care if you can sing or not" which I thought was great, because I always think people with bad voices shouldn't sing so loudly, including me, but that is just ridiculous!

and now I am just chillin, looking forward to a day off, and nothing major planned, just lunch with a friend, which will be fun; and hopefully I can get some cleaning done, my place needs it, BADLY!! haha! have a great night!

Kristin

Congrats to the WNBA champs MN Lynx!!

Whoo hoo!! I'm such a bandwagoner, but I love Lindsay Whalen, hometown girl, she married someone from Annandale, which is the next town over by Kimball! congrats ladies! :)

What a great day!

So today was awesome, nice and slow; a chance to catch my breath, which was very nice! I also got to leave early, so I went for a walk at Munsinger Garden, and its just so pretty there, and this weather is AWESOME!! beautiful! I am just so happy, and crossing my fingers for a good day tomorrow, even though I hate working Saturday's, I'm exciting that Dr. Watson is going to be in! YAH!

I feel so good, right now! Hoping for a nice easy day tomorrow, and then a relaxing day off on Sunday, and I am not planning to do anything! WAHOO!

night night!

The Tigers beat the Yankees!!

AHHHH!!!! I so wanted the Yankees to go home crying, which they did; I sure wish the Twins could do that though, ya know?? I get so annoyed that we can never beat them, and this year we stunk, but I still love 'em, and know that next year will be better. is it next year yet? Although now that baseball is over, who cares about who wins the world series, since the Yankees are out of it!! WAHOO!! so now skating starts, and you know me, I still watch all my old skating tapes, which is so much fun. I think I like doing that because there are so many things in skating, that you can miss in a single performance, and its fun to reminisce and try to remember where I was when Michelle Kwan one her 6th national title, or how much fun Stars on Ice was in 2001, etc. Just fun memories!

Well my bed is SCREAMING my name!

Night!

Life has been so CRAZY lately!

and I mean CRAZY!! so yesterday I was "on call" which is code for "we only have one person working, can you be around just in case" which stinks, but I got a call in the afternoon and was like "oh great, I'm heading into work" well it was Betty and she said she got a job offer for a new job for the next day, which freaked me out, because 1. I love Betty 2. That means we are SUPER short staffed, I mean we are SUPER short staffed when we only have 3 full timers, and the other full timer is dealing with family health problems, hubby cancer and chemo, daughter pneumonia! AHHH!!!! instantly I started to cry and called my mom, I was supposed to go over there for a spaghetti supper, but I was just instantly thinking Oh my gosh I'm going to have to cover for Betty, so I will probably be working a million hours, and so I'm crying and scared, and worried. I'm such a worrier, which I hate. So then work today I was expecting it to just be me and Dr. Stotesbery, when Beth came in and saved the day, one with all the family stuff, oh sweet RELIEF!!! so we worked out Betty's shifts, and today was slow, which was very needed, and I feel so much better, and then I feel like such a doubting Thomas, you know how Thomas just has to see Jesus' hands after he was crucified, just to make sure it really was Jesus, and I just feel like Jesus is saying to me "Kristin, will I ever let you down, would I ever give you more than you can handle" wow, he is so amazing, I feel awful. I'm still sad about Betty, but glad that she is moving onto something else.

And this just happened in the past day, AHHH!!! I haven't even filled you in on everything else, which I plan to on my day off Sunday! I just want to RELAX and be by myself, I feel so exhausted! I've never felt this stressed before. Boy do I sure understand my dad's feelings of when we were little and him wanting to just sit on the couch and destress, and I was always so annoyed that I had to do dishes instead of him, my thought process was that he got to get paid to sit around and do nothing, while I'm not paid to go to school and learn. Boy was i WRONG, so very wrong!! the work world is SOOOOOO crazy! AHHH!!

I cannot wait to just sleep in!! Please pray for me, I could really use it!

Thanks!

PS I promise once things slow down, that I will update you all on my life!!! :)

If every Monday were like today!!

I wouldn't be complaining! It was VERY good, which is very much needed!!! :)

I just love my co-workers so much and we got something in the mail about Christmas eye doctor shirts, and I so want one, I wish I wrote the website down, so that I could share it!!

and Dancing with the Stars was SOOOOOO good, lots of great dances tonight! I absolutely love Carson Kressley, he is SOOOOOO cute!! and hilarious!

well I have Wednesday off, so I will defintely update you guys on what has been going on in my life lately, but it is nice to have a laptop and be able to do that!!!

YAH! well have a great week everyone!
Love,
Kristin

I'm back!! i got a new laptop, and it just always felt good to write out everything going on in my life! YAH!
