This has been the craziest few days!!! I haven't had time to blog at all. I still have a lot of stuff to do, but I need a short break.
The last time I posted was Wednesday and we were in the Outer Banks.
On Thursday we went over to the pool and enjoyed the sunshine. I was just getting hot and wanting to get in the pool when I found out that they were closing the pool for 3 hours! Evidently someone puked in the deep end and they had to skim it out, add chemicals, and let all the water cycle through the filters before letting anyone get back in.
So we just stayed and laid out. I got in the baby pool to cool off.
Jesse and I left the OBX at around 2 pm. He drove the whole way back and I finished off my James Patterson book, "The Beach House." Wow, that one is my favorite so far. I read it in less than 24 hours.
On Thursday night Mike and Alyson came to Winston and stayed with us. We went to dinner at Qdoba's. I had 3 chicken tacos that were very good!
On Friday the boys loaded up the truck and I cleaned...booo. It sucked. I did a good job so we better not be charged for anything on our deposit.
When we started to drive back a HUGE MONSTER storm blew in and we had to drive in it. I just got out of my car for 3 seconds to turn in our apartment keys and I was soaked. Jesse had to take out some trash and he was DRENCHED!
It was a scary drive. It was storming like crazy in Winston and then it rained from Princeton to home. Kitsy and I made it though!
Friday night we spent the night at my parents with the truck parked outside. Then on Saturday morning we unloaded the truck in our new place!! Jesse's mom and John, her husband, Brian, and Jeremy helped us. I started unpacking...and I'm still working on it.
On Sunday I was excited because we finally got our washer and dryer hooked up and I really needed to do laundry. So I started to wash a load and I walked upstairs to get more clothes. I took a little longer than normal because I got distracted by something...and when I walked down the stairs I heard the water still running. I thought, "That's odd." So I went to the kitchen where our laundry closet is and there was about 3 inches of water all over the floor!! I screamed for Jesse and turned the water off.
We started towelling it all up and I drove over to Mike's house to get his wet-vac. Then we got it all sucked up.
We decided to give Jesse's mom our old set of washer and dryer and see if her husband, John, who is a plumber, can fix it.....and we went to Best Buy and bought a new set.m Unfortunately it won't be delivered until next Wednesday.
I took my laundry over to my Mom's house...and during my 4th load the electricity went out. After that, the dryer wouldn't come back on!! Somehow I managed to break a washer and a dryer in the same day!!
Today I got up and ran around a nearby neighborhood. Since then I've been working on the house....and playing with my new cell phone. Jesse and I got new silver LG Shines. I've been shopping for a case for it! :) I really like my new phone. My old one was over 2.5 years old and almost embarrassing...hahaha!
ok... I guess I need to get back to work now.

packed today
I woke up this morning... and took Kitsy outside for awhile. She is LOVING going outside lately. She just sits by the door and yells for us to take her out. Its really sad. I decided to take her out for awhile before it got hot later.
Then I packed a lot of crap. Still have quite a bit to pack...but I am making progress. Now I just gotta find a few more boxes.
After that I ran on the treadmill. I hate running on the treadmill on Saturdays because there is NOTHING on TV. (We don't have cable...just an antennae) Today I hooked up an old VCR and watched Aladdin. It must have helped me zone out and forget that I was running because I did a total of 6.25 miles. That's my new record. I did walk a few times...and at the end I was running 8.5 mph for a 1/4 mile and then walked at 4.0 mph for a quarter mile. I got to the part of the movie where Jafar gets the lamp and the genie.
After that I cooked dinner--meatloaf, green beans, and coleslaw.
Since then I've really been pretty bored....I read my newest James Patterson book, The Quickie, for a few hours.
and I guess now I'm gonna finish this boring day and go to sleep.

joke of a job
My job working with LD kids was a joke. I don't know why I even needed to be there...but all the better for me I guess. I couldn't even know which students I was there to help..haha. Its confidential! I only went to 2 classes. One was watching a movie and eating snacks. I poured soda and passed out potato chips and cheese puffs. The 2nd class was taking a vocab test so I just say there and did nothing.
After school Jesse and I went to the pool where I got a little sun!! I think we're gonna go swimming tomorrow morning too. Its supposed to be 97 degrees here tomorrow!!
I didn't work out today. I can't even remember the last time I didn't exercise....so I guess I was due for a day of rest.
I started packing today. I got about 5 pretty large boxes packed up. My kitchen decorations are pretty much gone..and a lot of my other decorations too. It looks all bare in here now and I don't like it.
