8/28/09 Horoscope

It's not hard for you to balance your desire to be creative with your need to show your competence at work today. There are tasks that you must finish, though, before you will feel free enough to express yourself. Fortunately, you don't need to work extra hard; just keeping up with what you already started will be sufficient.

Awesome!

I'm diggin' my new job.

Monkey Magic!

Okay, okay, I know I haven't been around much, and pretty much everything I've been posting is videos and lame stuff, but I couldn't help it with this one! After this video...well, I take that back...after today's posting, I promise that I'll be more involved! I PROMISE!

But watch this video! It's so cute! Another reason why I love monkeys!



Too cute!

So cute!




Just a lazy Sunday

Sooooo....we just back a little while ago from running some errands to Petsmart, Walmart, BB&B (so I could make a copy of my schedule), and then Papa Murphy's to pick up a pizza for dinner and Lowell took me for a quick drive through the mall.

Ohmygo...

Clay Terrace Mall is so cool! It's an outdoor mall, which I've never seen before (except strip malls, of course), and it's so nice! I can't wait to go there and actually get out and look around and shop! Probably not anytime soon, but maybe when I gear up to go Christmas shopping for everyone! Which I plan on getting a list together and getting started as soon as the first chilly Fall day comes! MMM...I can't wait till Fall!! It's my favorite time of year!

Let's see...

At Petsmart we needed dog food and cat food desperately. I had a coupon for a free bag of Purina One that Purina sent me in the mail last week which came in real handy! We paid for the dog's food (we couldn't use the coupon for his food since he eats ProPlan, but I could have used a $5 off coupon from the last bag I purchased, however I left it at home), but got the cat's food for free and saved $12!! Then we picked up some kitty litter, 2 cans of Fancy Feast, visited the kitties for adoption, then headed to Walmart to pick up some essentials.

We...well, I should say "I" spotted a cute dress that was only $14 and Lowell thought it was cute too so I got it. Stopped and picked up some toothpaste, creamer, and hair-dye. I desperately need to dye my hair again, especially since we have Brian and Lindsey's wedding this coming weekend on the 22nd! I'm really excited to take some photos, although my pictures of people never really turn out the way I like. EVER.

The dress I got, but mine's a lighter color...



Then we decided on Papa Murphy's pizza for dinner which is just a short walk down from Walmart, and while we were heading down there I stopped by work to make a copy of this weeks' schedule and then met Lowell there. We grabbed our pizza and then headed home, cooked the pizza, ate, and now we're headin' to Steak 'n Shake to use our Buy 1, Get 1 Free shake coupon! MmmmMmmm!

Yep, you know you're jealous! Actually, if you got a Sunday paper, you probably got one too!

I made a cute video, actually it's rather long (30 mins) today of just messin' around, but Lowell won't me upload it. I'll probably just upload it on the sly... :) Yea, I'm sneaky like that. *wink*

Cooking In Your Hotel Room With George Egg

I cannot tell you just awesome this video is, pure genius! And hilarious! I would love to try that sometime, but I'd probably end up burning down the hotel.



And the food looks pretty darn good too! Love it!

But I'll probably just stick to ordering pizza's and grabbin' some fast food.

Boo.

Drumsticks Recipe


Ohmyg...

As soon as I get my first paycheck...

...I'll be purchasing the list of ingredients to make my own drumsticks! I love this tasty treat, but they cost like 5 bucks for a box of six! It's grocery store robbery! Now I can make my own and save ingredients to make more later! I am so excited to make these!

I'll post some pictures on how they turn out! If you do this before me...let me know how it goes and if there are any steps that need tweaking, etc.! And post some pics of how yours turned out!

I wanna go to the fair!

The Indiana State Fair starts tomorrow!

I've never gone to a state fair, and I would really love to go! It would probably be a struggle to get Lowell to want to go though. Parking.

But if not this year, maybe next year for sure!

The food, the smells, the people watching, the rides, the laughter, kids, the animals, I could go on forever!

I'd love to go and take some photos too! Some during the day, and some at night. I'd love to just spend an entire day there. Maybe if Lowell doesn't want to go, he'll at least drop me off!! :)

Have you ever gone to a state fair? How was it?

Volturi!

In honor of Eclipse coming out on paperback tomorrow...check out the first look of the Volturi in New Moon!


That is all! :)


New Apartment Photos

It's been a few days, but I haven't fogotten you! There has just been so much going on with the move, starting a new job, Lowell starting a new job, etc. It's been crazy around here! And now I'm dog-sittin' for my parents dog for the week (or longer!). I'm exhausted, and I'm sure Lowell is too. He's been really stressed about his new job, wanting to make sure he is selling enough for the company, and more importantly, for us!

I finally (just) took some photos of the new apartment, even though it's kind of messy/lived in, but oh well! I'm too tired to make it look presentable for blog photos and the whole world to see!


The dining room! Forget about the garbage on the chair, just something that must be done while dog-sittin' the Mick. :)

My 'Quaint' Kitchen...it works/I'm makin' it work!

The other side of the kitchen.

My First Gas Stove, and the kettle I've had for almost 6 years and just used this week! It rocks!

The Living Room/my office! Where I had to sleep last night with little success because of the DOG.

Living Room at another angle.

The downstairs half-bath/guest bathroom! Cuter than the one upstairs.

The toilet view.

Goin' up the stairs now!

My washer and dryer! Can't live without it.

Lowell's room/office/work-out area. Link with red eyes.

Link with green eyes. (taken immediately after the one above!) Weirdo.

Again.

The bike is already on its way to becoming one expensive towel/shirt hanger.

Headin across the hall now!

But first, stop off to the other bathroom upstairs!

The bedroom! Boy did I wish I had gotten to sleep there last night! It looks so comfy right now! Sleeping on a futon just doesn't work anymore in my old age.

Bedroom 2.0

I really need to get some work done today, I have to go to the UPS store and mail our giveaway winner her pedi, and I need to start reading the new book I got in the mail for review (that hasn't come out yet!), etc. It's just going to be a busy day!

Everyone else have a great day!
