Country Roads..Take me Home!!
The actual big news is that Jesse and I are moving back to WV!! WahoOO!
Jesse and I moved down here to Winston-Salem, NC because he and Lester were opening a branch of UA down here. Well, that didn't pan out the way it was planned...and UA kinda wen't downhill anyway. So a couple months ago they switched to begin selling major medical health insurance from Assurant. Well.. long story short, with Assurant they are able to work in WV. There is nothing here in NC that we are tied to... In fact, Jesse and Lester have 4 or 5 "employees" in WV and zero here. Soooo... with that being said...we are outta here!!
I had to wait to post anything about it until I told my parents. I didn't want them to find out from someone else.
ok....thats the future but for right now, I'm still here in NC.
I worked at Cracker Barrel today. I trained Heather again...which was good. I didn't make much money today though. :(
Jesse hasn't been feeling well.. He swears he has shingles. I called my mom (who had shingles a few years ago) and we determined that he doesn't have shingles. But...he feels achey all over, lethargic, he has a bad headache, an itchy rash on his belly, and a slight fever (99.5) So who knows.
I took a 30 min. nap when I got home... then I went to BB&T to get a form notarized to get my WV Teaching Certificate. We gave Holli a ride home from BB&T (where she works) because she lost her keys this morning..haha. She ended up finding them tonight in her end table.
I didn't run today. I just did a lot of weight stuff instead. It wore me out. haha! I'd rather run 5 miles then do that. Now my arms feel like jello.
Survivor was good. I'm glad they blindsided Jason!! He should have played the idol!
Now I gotta go get ready to sub tomorrow! I'm teaching US History and AP US History tomorrow! Tomorrow I'm sure I'll write about how it goes... for now, GOODNIGHT!

another day at the barrel
At around 2 I couldn't wait to go home, but the girl who was taking my spot on the floorplan called and said she was going to be late... so I had to stay until she got there. But..it worked out because Jesse came in around 2:30 with Brian!! Brian was working in Raleigh so he drove over to see us! He and Jesse hit golf balls and hung out a little..and then came to CB. So I waited on them...and then I finally got to leave a little after 3.
So, I came home....and chatted with Brian for a few minutes until he had to leave.
Then I got on the treadmill and ran for an hour. Today I walked every other quarter mile at 4 to 4.5 mph and then ran the other on e at 8 mph. I went somewhere around 5.3 miles all together. The best part was that I got to watch How I Met Your Mother Season One on DVD while I ran!! It was great! I love that show and it was so cool not to have commercials while I ran. It made me really happy!
Tonight Holli, Jesse and I went to Monte De Rey and had dinner. I had a chicken quesadilla! YUM!
Then we watched American Idol. .. I cannot believe that Carly was the one voted off! I could not have predicted that one! But..Holli called it. She said that Carly would get voted off because she wasn't American.. Last week the Aussie was voted out..and this week the Irish chick. I think she might be right! I thought it should have been Brooke or Jason and they weren't even in the bottom 2! I guess people feel sorry for the people that screw up and vote for them.
Now I'm gonna go eat my leftovers from Monte De Rey! yes, at 11 pm, so what?

soooo sleeeepy........
Oh gee....where to start.
This weekend... Jesse and I drove home on Friday evening after I got home from work at Cracker Barrel. We got to my parents house and Jesse dropped me off...and he went to play basketball with Brian. I ate lasagna and a salad that my Mom made.
After dinner my Dad built a fire in their fire bowl and we sat around outside talking for awhile.
On Saturday morning Jesse woke up and went to the Y with Brian. I woke up and went shopping at South Ridge with my Mom. I bought 3 shirts, some pj's, and a bathing suit...YAY! I'm not totally in love with this bathing suit, but I like it... I think I'm gonna keep the tags on in case I find something that I like better. Or, I may just get 2 new bathing suits this year. I haven't had a new suit for at least 2 years, maybe longer!!
My Mom also bought me 2 new pairs of shoes....a really cute pair of brown dress shoes..and a pair of Ked's brown tennis shoe looking things. I decided that I have to start shopping at Shoe Carnival more now..cause they actually carry my size, 5 1/2!! YAY!
On Saturday night, Jesse and I went to Sarah and Jay's house to watch the UFC fight. We had a good time. We got there early so we could see Caylan before she went to bed. There were a lot of people there... (Me & Jesse, Bekah & Jeremy, Brian & Jessica, Sarah & Jay, Eric & Jackie, and Jay's friend, Josh.)
Sunday morning we went to church at Maranatha. Then we went back to my parents house for dinner, Lemon Pepper Chicken!
After that we went over to Brian and Jessica's and the boys dug up bushes from their front yard.
They were filthy!!
Then we all went over to Teays Valley so that we could meet up with Mike & Allyson and their whole family, including dogs. Sarah and Jay came too. The boys played basketball and soccer while the girls talked and the kids played on the playground.
On Monday Jesse and I made it back here to Winston.
Today has been tiring. I'm really sleepy now. I got to sleep in, went to Cracker Barrel from 11 to 2:30. I won the Strawberry Pecan Salad selling contest, so I got a free dinner. I got the Chile Jack Chicken and ate about 1/2 of it, even though I wasn't hungry. I didn't train today, but I'm training tomorrow and Thursday.
When I got home I did some laundry and ran on the treadmill... I went crazy today. I ran 5.64 miles in an hour. That's probably why I'm so tired now!
I took a shower..played around on facebook then went upstairs to watch Idol with Holli. I thought the 2 Davids were REALLY GREAT! I predict that Brooke and Jason will be in the bottom this week. I think its Brooke's turn to go home.
Now I'm gonna go get in the bed...watch Law & Order: SVU and then go to sleep!!
