Laughing Out Loud

I just read the blog of a friend of mine and they were talking about a new roommate, we will call him Mouse, and his super rodent abilities to eat the peanut butter AND peanut off the trap without getting caught. My friend went on to say that the mouse scared the crap out of her and she screamed. This just made me laugh out loud because this particular friend used to hide behind curtains, in dark rooms, and jump out and scare the crap out of me! I would scream like a little girl who's brother just pulled her hair. I really do believe now that what comes around goes around - meaning - this friend of mine used to find delight in scaring me and now the mouse has scared her! I LOVE it!!!!!

Keep it up Mr. Mouse!

Way to long...... again!

Well, I am back. And this time it is as a married women. I held out for a long time as a single gal, however, I found a guy who was just to good to pass up. You can blame him for my long absence. I enjoy being with him so much I neglect this blog. But now that I travel again, I have some free time while sitting in my hotel room to blog.

I want to share with you some of my inner thoughts today.
1) I should really think about losing some weight. I dislike the happy fat that I have put on.
2) This time zone change is killing me! Why can't everyone be on central standard time?
3) I need to get an update on my soap operas. Yes..... I still watch them.
4) Goodwill has got to love me this year, since I have donated so much stuff to them.
5) I wonder if anyone needs a dryer. I have an extra one that is in great condition. HINT, HINT!
6) I really need to read up on my world history. This movie that I am watching makes me think I have forgotten a lot since grade school.

That is it for my random thoughts for the day. If I don't' get back to this blog before the week is over have a great weekend!!!!

Sad

I found out today that the father of a dear friend of mine passed away last night. This got me to thinking of my dad and the fact that he has been gone 12 years now. I always wonder if my dad would be proud of me now? If he would have liked the wonderful man that I am going to marry? I also wonder if my life would have been dramatically different if my dad were still around. I admit that I truly believe I am where I am in life right now because of the events that happened after my dad passed away. To get away from the sorrow and grief of losing my dad I moved to St. Louis to get a fresh start. If I had not moved here I wonder if I would have every met my fiance? Would I have even moved to St. Louis if my dad were still here?

I know it is not good to dwell on the past. But at times like this, when the loss of a dad occurs, I am reminded of my loss.....

I loved my dad dearly. We had so many great times. I am truly blessed to have had him around as long as I did. I cherish every day I had with him. However, I can tell you that the day he passed away a piece of me died as well that can never be replaced. He was a great man.

Sorry for the sad post, but they can't all be sunny! :-)

Way to long!

It has been nearly 2 years since I last posted anything on my site. I have a lot of catching up to do. Lets just start from the beginning. The reason I stopped posting is because I met this wonderful man who started taking up a lot of my free time. We have since gotten engaged and will make this crazy thing official in October of this year. Job wise - I took a promotion and came in the office for a year to train people how to do the job that I once was doing. However, now that the economy decided to turn south I will be going back out on the road to help out my fellow Examiners. Good thing I have the wedding all planned!!!!!

That is the short version of what I have been up to, there have been some fun things in between, but I won't get into them now. I have to go finish my laundry right now........ so catch you l8er!
