It's been a while..

Ok Its been forever since I posted...but now I have started making Christmas Presents!!!! YAY for Christmas!! When you have homemade presents to make its better to start early. Homemade Christmas presents save money and they truly come from the heart.

A few things I made tonight are 3 different body scrubs and a Kitchen Lemon Hand Scrub!! They are so easy to make! I got some cute jars from Hobby Lobby to store them in. I also attempted to make some bar soap. I will see how that turns out when it hardens. I don't think I had enough Coconut smell in it. But the great thing about messing up on soap is that you can just reheat it and start again!! Next I will try liquid soap and dry lemon-smelling laundry detergent. I am going to make the Ball Jar Soap Dispensers to put the liquid soap in. And I love for bar soaps to be just a big bar chunk with some cute ribbon and maybe a little flower or something. I am also going to add a loofah and some other bath stuff in with gifts. Luckily noone that will be getting these presents cares about reading my blogs. I dont even know why I write a blog because I just like it as a journal for myself to have and not for everyone else to read. But anyways Im about to look up more stuff to make while Im in the crafty mood!!!

best friends ever

i have the best group of friends ever. last thursday me, josh, heather, brittney, dakota, ray, rj, david, and wade watched "its always sunny in philadeplhia" over at heather & britts. after that we decided to go outside and chill, then someone thought it would be fun to hit people with the volleyball in the yard (prob RJs idea) and use the cane stick to throw it like a javellin at people.
so we decided to go into the church field beside their house and play dodgeball. it wasnt fair because all of the girls were on one team. so we gave up and decided to play red rover.
of course when we called the guys over they would always run through one of the girls arms, which resulted in us gettin hurt. ray ran through me & josh and it busted a blood vessel in my hand and scratched it all up. but it was an awesome night.
friday was me and joshs 4 YEAR anniversary!!! we went to eat rice box and then went to Arx Mortis with dakota, rj, and ray. it was stupid and i did not yell even once. ugh. waste of $30 for us right there.
saturday me & jen took wedding pictures til about 730. then i went over to joshs and we watched football. and the LSU tigers won!! the past 2 weeks they have won in ridiculously crazy ways, but i wont complain. oh and bama lost :) then we cuddled up and watched Saw 6.

Sunday josh came with me to church. then we went to visit my granddad in the hospital and came home. we took about a 4 hour nap then got up and i made us salads and he made us chicken fries and we watched the buried life and teen mom. then we went to visit my grandmother in rehab.
after that we picked up Dakota and went to Josh's mom's to watch Dexter and Eastbound & Down. both were great. then we came back to my house and i showed dakota the critter room and our log cabins. i feel like im takin people on field trips when they come to my house ha.

i got about 4 hours of sleep last night. went to my 8oclock class then met josh and we went to make his loan payment and then we ate breakfast at mcdonalds and he got called into work.

so i came home and slept and then went to my 4oclock class and picked up groceries for momma.
im about to get a shower and go to Heather & Brittneys!!! didnt get to see them this weekend because they went to SC to visit britts family
yay cant wait!

Ferris Wheel :)

So thursday when i was at work Josh asked me if i would spend the night with him at the fair. umm, of course i will! so we went to the tennessee fair and had a great time. when we rode the ferris wheel and got to the top, i was looking out at all the lights from the other rides and we were holding hands and he slipped my promise ring onto my hand :)
When we broke up i gave him back my promise ring and told him i only wanted it if he was going to keep the promise of loving me and always working things out with me, no matter how big the fight.
so i got it back now and happier than ever!
friday night we went to the movies to see Case 39, it was pretty good...but Devil was a better movie.
Today i went to church service and then got a lunch from 2 ladies who are doing the 3 day walk for breast cancer. they were selling lunches to benefit and raise money so they could walk. we (me & dad) took 3 of them to the hospital for my family. dadday was raising his eyebrows today when we were talking to him. they tried to take him off of his "sleepy medicine" and then tried to take him off the ventalator, but he still wasnt completely awake so they had to keep the ventalator on him for a little longer. maybe he will be off of it tomorrow.

then i came home and took a nap and then went to meet Josh when he got off work. we went to eat at Ryan's buffet (nasty place) with Scott. then we went to Petco so i could buy a Seahorse. but they stopped selling them :( so me and Josh decided to buy some cute treefrogs in the near future. we couldnt find a tank we liked today. but im excited even though i really wanted the seahorsey.
then we headed to Dakotas and sat there for a while before we went to Josh's mom's to watch Dexter and Eastbound & Down. then headed back to dakotas and then went to get my car.

Tuesday when i get out of class we will be heading to NASHVEGAS! were going to a Benefit concert. Keith Urban, John Mayer, Billy Currington, Miranda Lambert, Allison Krauss, Martina McBride, Alan Jackson, Dolly Parton, and a few more people will be playing. i CANT wait!!!
yay. goodnight
then we went to Dakota's

love my life :)

so, i havent posted in forever. but ive been pretty busy.

me & josh are back together and SOO happy!!! i love him so much and he means the world to me.

two fridays ago he took me to Huntsville. We shopped (excuse me, I shopped) and went to eat at Mukato (japanese steakhouse) and went to Bridgestreet (where i bought the cutest Juicy Couture purse!) and we threw some wishing pennies into the fountain and then went to see Devil (great movie) at Monaco! we had never been to Monaco before, thinkin it was a whole lot more expensive than our expensive theatre, but it was like 50 cents more and all the food/beverages were actually cheaper than ours. i cant wait to go back. needless to say, it was my favorite date ever and my wish has come true ;)

last week we went to the demolition derby at the fair and he also won me a penguin by poppin balloons! it took $12!

the only bad thing goin on in my life right now is that my sweet granddad is in the hospital. he got his right kidney taken out last wednesday, and he was in ICU for 2-3 days after that then got put into a room. he was doing good until last night/this morning. he threw up and had a lot of nasty stuff that filled his lungs. his stomach was pushing all his foods and stuff out of it and not takin anything. he got moved back into ICU this morning. me & josh went to visit him tonight and i really did not want to because he is sedated and cannot move or talk and i just did not want to see him like that. but i know i need to go see him every chance i get so i went and right when i got in the ICU i teared up. i just couldnt stand looking at him leaned over, not moving, except for seeing the ventalator (sp?) move his chest up & down for breathing, and having numerous plugs and cords and IV's poked in and out everywhere. we stayed in there for about 20 minutes then i said "love you dad-day" and walked out tearing up some more. but the thing that makes me happy is last night when i left his room, the last the he said to me was "love you." all that i can do is pray and i will.

tonight josh, RJ, and me went to eat at Umi. it was the first night they opened and i think Umi should just be pronounced "yummy" like i thought it was at first. it was amazing. then we went to dakotas and i had to check my other grandparents mail (theyre in ireland) and came home. im about to play the Playstation Move!!!!

its been a while...

so i havent blogged in forever and just remembered i had a blog.
i havent been up to much...but been goin out to Heather & Britt's every night since i practically live there.
friday i was bored and texted lauren and asked what she was goin that night. she didnt have any plans and i said "lets go get a tattoo" so we did.
I wanted "la vita e bella" which means "life is beautiful" so thats what i got...on my ribs. and i love it. i wanted "love the life you live, live the life you love" in italian but it was going to be way too big.
and lauren got the same thing as me on her hip/side because she couldnt think of anything to get ha.
and he re-did my heart on my wrist since when it healed it scabbed too much and didnt look good since it was such a skinny tattoo. looks much better now and i hope it heals right.
yesterday i went to meet josh and then came home and watched Madea's family reunion with mom and dad and got a good nights sleep.
oh and yesterday me & mom took dad-day to trowlbridge's to get some ice cream and i had a hotdog. yummy...
and today i went to church & then came home and took a nap. then me & dad went to Budget Video and rented The Bounty Hunter. Came home and me & mom made my favorite cookies ever then we watched the movie. i have started cleaning my room (which is very messy) and i took down 64 pictures. now my walls are bare and have random empty spaces on them. but i have stopped cleanin my room already because i can never stick with one project. now i am about to go to Lauren's and help her make my little cousins 2nd birthday cake...which is going to be Thomas the Train themed :)
Jennifer is having a huge birthday celebration tomorrow and having an inflatable 70ft waterslide in her backyard!!! i cant wait. except i can wait to show my family my tattoo because they will all see it and all say something about it. but oh well...its there forever.

Friday the 13th

So i havent posted anything in a while. forgot when the last one was but umm Monday night i went to Heather & Brittney's then i met Josh at Sonic and we had a great night & we went swimming.
Tuesday i was off and went to babysit my little cousin Norah. she is the cutest chubbiest little thing! she fell asleep on me for 30 minutes and then her mommy got home. I took some old school books to the off-campus store and got $113 cash for 5 books. then i waited for Josh to get done talkin to his advisor & we went across the river to make a payment. We ate at subway and then i went to the hospital for a little bit & Josh asked if i would stop by Camron's so i did then we went to Josh's mom's house for Josh's birthday dinner & we caught up on the 2 True Blood episodes i had missed.
I was also off on Wednesday. Went to the hospital for a little while. Wednesday was Josh's Birthday! I got him a gray & white polo and some stuff to clean his car with since he ALWAYS has to have a clean car. Later that night i went to eat at Applebee's with him and some of his friends for his birthday.
Yesterday i worked til about 430 or 5 and i had to stop at Kohl's to pick mom up some Viva la Juicy perfume i got her obsessed with. Then i stopped at the hospital for a little while. I came home then i went to help Lauren move her stuff out of her apartment and back home. I came home after that and went to sleep early and woke back up at like 12 then went to sleep again.
Today i was off AGAIN! and so i watched Pretty Little Liars & The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Then i went to the hospital around 2 and Josh stopped by there and then i rode with him across the river to have something on his car looked at and we decided to eat at some random place called The Garden Gate Cafe. Jessica had told me it was good so i said lets go there! they had all of FOUR things on their menu!! haha and it was really fast and the food didnt taste bad, but we will probably try another place next time! I love doin random stuff with Josh like that.
Well he dropped me back off at my car and i went to my grandmothers to tan & now i am home and it is thundering so loud and i love it. I want to do somethin in town tonight but don't know yet what there is to do. I will probably just show up at Heather & Brittneys!

monday

Today i was off work and i actually woke up at about 930. with no alarm. and could not fall back to sleep. so i got up and went to town.
Had to stop at the bank first to cash my check. Then i went to the mall. Got some jeans & a cute Jessica Simpson top from Belk. thats all i could find in the mall.
I went to Target to return a dress and got an even cuter one for cheaper! Also i got some new mascara, eyeshadow, and some softlips cause mine is almost out.
then i went to TJMaxx and couldnt find anything good. Went to Shoe Carnival and got some cute black heels that go great with my dress!
I can't wait to wear the dress for my HOT date tomorrow night!! dunno where we're going yet though. but im so excited!!!
then i stopped at Martin's but couldnt find anything there which is usual.
as i was pulling in the driveway Josh asked if i wanted to get lunch. wish i could have known about 10 minutes earlier :(

I'm about to get ready to go to the hospital. My granddad's surgery went well and he just got back to his room but he is still out of it. I can't wait to see him in about 2 hours. Dunno what else i will do tonight. Probably going to sit at Heather & Brittney's again!
