Summer is here, so I had to put a new summer dress on the blog. Like it? I do.
So, I have no idea how many people visit my blog so Thursday or so I decided to put this tracker on. I have had fifty hits since then, some of course were me checking how many hits I got. That is though more than I had expected.
Saturday, we thought that we were going to go to Yosemite but we didn't wake up until 10:30 and then we weren't ready to go anywhere until about noon so driving for a few hours didn't sound appealing. We did nothing around the house for a while and then Gabe and Jade called and invited us to go biking out at Woodward Park. We had nothing better to do so we went. We had never been there biking so is was pretty fun. They have a huge course of hills that Ben and Gabe went on, I did go on a few but was not about to take too many chances. I probably would have eaten it pretty bad. We got some chinese food, came home and chilled with them.
Sunday we went to church, of course. I have offically decided that I am going to ride seperate from Ben, I don't need to be hanging out after church for no reason just so that we can ride together. After Church we went to Gabe and Jade's and hung out with them watching the Alaskan Experiment. Some thing that Ben totally loved since it was about people spending three months in the Alaska trying to survive. I would have been dead the first day. Ben wanted to try and do that. More power to ya bud, see ya in three months. We then had dinner at Abe and Leann's and I got some cuddle time with there youngest of four, who is 2 months. I loved it.
That was our weekend how was yours? Type at you all later.

Time Off
Happy Happy Day, I have been off for the past few days but no worries i sitll have off until next Friday. I am so excited about that. We had planned to go camping with Beth and Kevin and Kevin's family at the beach but then we decided that things around us were getting too expensive and we needed to cut something out.
Some may remember my post from a couple weeks ago talking about the Nissan breaking down well it hasn't quite stopped, it hasn't been the Nissan but other things. Last week Thursday I started the dryer and went somewhere for an hour and when I came back the dryer was still running I didn't think much of it as it can take more than an hour to dry clothes sometimes. Well, another hour went by and it was still spinning, I knew something was wrong. I opened the door and the clothes were wet and cold. Dagum it! It was past five and so I couldn't call a repair man then, I finally took the clothes over to get them dried at a friends house it didn't take long as they had been slowly air drying in the dryer while it tumbled. Friday the repair man came out and said he could fix the heating element and lube up the parts. He didn't have the part on him so he had to come back Saturday and fixed it in 30 min. and $140 bucks later. Oh well, the dryer works.
Going back to Friday, Ben calls me at work and tells me a tire on the Subaru just blew and he had to go get it fixed. Ah crap! How much is a new tire going to cost, it is going to be outrageous since it is the Subaru. I talked to him again and when he showed up they were doing nothing so they were able to work right on it. He called ten min later and he was on his way and only spent $15 bucks. Woo-Hoo! That was alot better than what I was fearing.
On too much funner (I know it ain't a word LOL) things. Well, remember me talking about those points and hoping to get 40% off. I did it. Thank you very much. So what did I get, you may ask?? Of course I was going to show you.
Now I just need to do some scrapbooking with it all and why haven't I been scrapbooking still, because of those darn Twilight books. I am finished with them until the last one comes out in August. I do wish I wouldn't let myself get so sucked up into books but I just can't help it. Hopefully I can get a page done today. Especially since I did get the house mostly cleaned up I just have to mop the kitchen, but I needed a reward for good behavior so here I am typing to you all. I do have some Layouts to show you though. I was telling Erin about this one earlier since I totally scraplifted her
Here is another LO from the same day.
My Birthday is coming up quicker than I thought and I also told Erin about this and that I would post a link for her. I think that this is going to be my birthday present to myself, from Ben. It is from Jessica Sprauge. As you all know I have gotten into picture taking and I have this new camera I don't know too much about but I love it. Even with how little I know I have improved my pictures 100%. So I need to take a class and this one is online for 6 weeks and I can review the tutorials forever. I think that this is going to be great for me especially since I don't have to go somewhere.
Well, I think that this is enough for now, so I will type at you all later.

From Our Blog 2 Yours
They are changing up the challenges at Sweet Shoppe wo this is now on Thursday's. Here's today's: "While I like to think of myself as a cool nerd (or maybe I prefer “geek” to nerd? Is there a difference?), deep down, I know that a nerd by any other name is still a nerd. LOL! When I found this fun test online, I had to take it to see exactly HOW nerdy I was. The results pretty much confirmed my expectations."
Woo Hoo! I am not too nerdy, I know that some of you had worries about me :)I'll post more later. I really need to clean the house. I think a grenade was balsted in here!

Hey
Hey all just checking in. for the past few days that I have worked I have had an orientee which is usually advanced enough to do most of the job without my constant supervision which means that I am usually bored out of my mind at work. I have been very tempted to bring the third Twilight book but I just can't do that because I know that I would really be useless and very distracted. So, I just try to keep myself busy. These past two days haven't been so bad because my Orientee leaves at 3:30 (since she hasn't finished school yet) so I have some things to do that keep me busy in the evening. Yes, I am rambling but hey, this is what is going on.
This past weekend Ben went on an overnight campout with the scouts, even though he isn't the Scoutmaster any more he still wants to do the hikes, since he just loves it. So, I was home ALONE!!! WOO HOO!! I got home from work at about 8pm and started readin the second Twilight book and stayed up until 2am reading it, (Yeah I know, I am lame, but you all love me anyways). I got up at about 8am, and read again until I finished it, which was about noon. Yes, I am very lame, but still you all love me :) I had to do that though, Ben can't be home and just let me read, he wants all of my attention whenever he is home, it can be quite annoying when I have things I want to do. Well, it may not be that he wants all my attention, he more or less wants me to be readily available at all times to whatever he needs and when I am engrossed in a book, I am unavailable. I ordered the third book, and it will be here any day, but we went over to a friends house on Sunday night and she had the third book so I am borrowing hers until mine gets here which may not be until the 9th, which I am very impatient, so I got hers. I haven't had any time to read though since I have had work and here we are back in full circle to my dilemmea of to bring or not to bring in the book.
Well, I have to get back to work, type at you all later.
