I think that this is the last one of my favorites from MySpace.

Mon, Oct. 2, 2006:
So, I have being wanting a flat screen plasma TV REALLY bad. I don't know why I just want one REALLY bad.
Anyway, Saturday night me and my roomie, Danielle, went to Walmart to look around and I saw it. A 42" plasma TV, it was a beauty. I wanted it. So, after a few agonizing minutes of deciding if I should get the 42" or a smaller one. I said nah I want the BIG one.....so I bought the 42". Then we (Danielle and I) went the the trouble and hassle of putting it in my car, a tight fit I might add. We went home with Danielle driving because we had to put it in the backseat with the driver seat pushed up, and a back widow rolled down with a corner of the box slightly sticking out. That was really funny. We got home and unloaded it. Naturally we wanted to open it and set it up. We got it out of the box and pulled off the protective wrapping and Ta Da! THE SCREEN WAS COMPLETELY BUSTED!!! I called Walmart and told the manager what was up and that I wanted to exchange it and if they had another. They didn't I asked if I could exchange it at a different store, yes I could. I called a different store, told the manager what was up and that I coming to his store with a broken 42" TV, he said OK. I totally forgot to ask if that store had another TV. So, when we got there and they looked for only to find out that they didn't have one either. I just ended up getting a refund. The Walmart people were really cool about it though. They didn't ask any questions about how it got broken or anything. Oh by the way - we didn't break it you could tell that it was packaged that way. So, I guess that is what I get when I want something big that I really shouldn't get. Well, get yet .

A Confession

Here another blog from my MySpace page. I will also like to repost that I haven't found one since!


Tue. Aug. 1, 2006:

I have to say that this happened a while ago, but it has taken me a while to come to grips with this. But here is my confession: I found a gray hair. Well correction.... my friend Anna found it for me. We were at her in-laws fish fry talking away, when suddenly she said that I had a gray hair. I kinda freaked out, then pulled it out and we laughed. Then I freaked out a little more.Why? Well I have an older sister, Robin, she 28 and has a few gray hairs of her own. On which I tease and torment her endless about, with great pleasure I might add. Now the tables are going to turn. I wonder what's going to happen? It actually wasn't GRAY, it was more a white then anything. Does that still count?

Introducing Top Things Tuesday!

I'm a little bored here and it's kinda late, 10:45 pm Monday night. So, I thought that I would introduce my Top Things Tuesday! I figured that I would have a weekly list of 10 or less every Tuesday or so. The lists are going to be on anything from what I think are serious topics to silly ones. I'm thinking most likely silly things knowing me ;).



This weeks list is top things I love about my house.



10. I bought it for a REALLY good price from my sister.

What can I say? Opportunity knocked.....HARD. So, I opened the door and jumped through it.

9. I don't have a home owners loan on it.

I worked my tail off the whole summer before I officially bought the place from my sister. By August of 2006 I was pleased to present her a check for the full asking price. Before you all think that I have a butt load of money, the price was cheap, very cheap.

8. I can decorate it any way I want!

Last May I took a whole week off of work and painted my room, the kitchen (and cupboards) and the front bathroom. I did it all pretty much by myself. Save for a few times some friends came and bailed me out. It turned out to be a little bigger project than I thought it would be, but I love the results!

7. It's in a quite trailer park.

I own a late model mobile home and thus live in a trailer park. I am constantly grateful that it is on the small side, about 85 homes in all.

6. Lot rent is cheap.

I'm not embarrassed to say that lot rent is $310.00. That my friends is cheap!

5. I have a HUGE shed.

The place came with a roughly 13ft by 13ft shed. I think that it's big and not that many people have one that big. I am constantly restraining myself to not fill it with a bunch of junk. What junk you say? I don't know, but usually if there is junk that I need to get rid of, I usually find a way to keep it.

4. It's small, but not that small.

14ft by 70ft, with a master bedroom/bath, full kitchen, laundry room, dinning area, living room and another room and bath room. It's a prefect size for me and my roommate.

3. It's within minutes of work and my parents.

I work at Meijer Warehouse and it's about 10 miles way form my house. Which it is a 10 - 15 minute drive. Love it, especially from the 20 min. drive I had when I lived in East Lansing for about 5 years. My parent live even closer, about 4 miles, which is always handy. Like when I need something fixed. :-)

2. PETS!

I love animals! When I was growing up we had our share of dogs and cats. When I lived in East Lansing I couldn't have any pets. Ahhhh the life of living in an apartment! lol! While my trailer park doesn't allow dogs, they definitely allow cats. I have 1.5 cats! LOL!!!! What I mean is that I have one (Mitzie) and my roommate has one (Daisy Sue) that I claim as half mine.

1. IT'S MINE!!!!!

I think of myself as a selfish person sometimes. This is one of those times.

A New Year! A New Me? Most Likely Not.

So, 8 days into the new year and I'm already sick and tired of hearing about people that make and usually breaking thier new years resolution(s). I personlly don't make any becuase I know myself. So therefore knowing myself I know that within either minutes, hours or days I'll forget that I made that promise. Or I just talk myself out of it ;) OOOHHHH I do remember one I made! WOW! In 2005 I said that I wouldn't eat candy. For those who don't know me that well, I am a total candy fanatic. Right now I am making a good sized dent in a 1 pound bag of twizzlers. YUMMY! Well my resolution worked until that summer I to Italy. Need I say more? LOL! Most people go on diets, something which I desperately need to do. I guess other people make a list of books to read, (now that is a good idea!) excerise more (something else I desperataly need to do) and I suppose the list can on and on. Well, I do cheer for those souls that decide to make resolution. Good for them I say as I continue to eat my twizzlers and pop a pizza in the oven.
Happy New Year!
