Wedding

2008-10-31T16:24:13Z

We are closing in on a DJ (Elite Entertainment) and a Photographer (Larry D). We have finally decided on favors and possibly centerpieces. So exciting. Already have the invitations and the guest list is put together. So it is coming along great.

For Mike and Micheles' wedding shower I have figured out my prize I just need to clear it with the boss lady.

The baby is due on December 6 so I am way excited about that. The baby shower was fun.

Because I know Beth reads this I will ask her What she is doing on November 14th at around 5:30 at night?

We got our hall and booked the church. Go us!! In case you did not know it is a Greek Orthodox Wedding so it is not even close to a Catholic wedding. Asked Andrea to be my Maid of Honor and Missy to be a bridesmaid now all I have let to do is ask Michele to be a bridesmaid and I am set. Have a DJ in mind and a Photographer and a Videographer. We should be getting all the little tid bits in the next couple months (before prices go up). Juggling between two florists. We shall see.

Wedding

I know it is not for a couple of years but we are still researching everything. Since we have more time then say my brother to plan it we can shop around for the best deals. We have a couple ideas for centerpieces and flowers. We know our color and where we are having it we just need to book the caterer at the hall we want and we are set with the large details(the hall and church). In about one year we will have more then enough saved up to pay everything off which is very exciting. I have everything I want in my head I just have to run is by Andrew and see if we can change anything for the better. Lucky for us the wedding bands are going to be low cost. We only need to get him one because of the design of my ring I can not wear one(does not bother me).

Hope everybody has a marvelous day!!!!

Guess What?

Very Important Please Read

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
A friend stopped at a pay-at-the-pump gas station in Eastpoint to get gas. Once she filled her gas tank and after paying at the pump and starting to leave, the voice of the attendant inside came over the speaker. He told her that something happened with her card and that she needed to come inside to pay. The lady was confused because the transaction showed complete and approved. She relayed that to him and was getting ready to leave but the attendant, once again, urged her to come in to pay or there'd be trouble. She proceed ed to go inside and started arguing with the attendant about his threat. He told her to calm down and listen carefully:

He said that while she was pumping gas, a guy slipped into the back seat of her car on the other side and the attendant had already called the Eastpointe police.

She became frightened and looked out in time to see her car door open and the guy slip out. The report is that the new Detroit gang initiation thing is to bring back a woman and/or her car. One way they are doing this is crawling under women's cars while they're pumping gas or at grocery stores in the nighttime. The other way is slipping into unattended cars and kidnapping the women.

Please pass this on to other women, young and old alike. Be extra careful going to and from your car at night. If at all possible, don't go alone!

This is real!!
The message:
1. ALWAYS lock your car doors, even if you're gone for just a second!
2.. Check underneath your car when approaching it for reentry, and check in the back before getting in.
3. Always be aware of your surroundings and of other individuals in your general vicinity, particularly at night!
Send this to everyone so your friends can take precaution.
AND GUYS...YOU TELL ANY WOMEN YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS Thanks,
Barbara Baker, Secretary Directorate of Training U.S. Army Military Police
School........THIS IS TOO SERIOUS ... DO NOT DELETE. PLEASE PASS IT ON!!

Time for an Update

2007-09-20T23:12:14Z

Well it has been a long time since I have had a real update so here it goes.

FIrst and foremost I am currently buying a new car my very first large purchase so I am taking all the necessary precautions. I was preapproved for my auto loan locked at a low interest rate. I found a car Andrew, Dad and myself already looked at it and it is in mint condition. When I buy it I will post a picture.

Next is MY BROTHER IS GETTING MARRIED!!!!! Her name is michele and she is a really nice person. I am one of the bridesmaids and she told me that I will be wearing a long pink dress and it can be strapless, halter or regular straps. I wore pink to Andrews prom and he loved it, to me that is all that matters.

Lastly Andrew has moved out of his parents home and into his uncles. His parents were charging him $250 a month for rent. They pretty much gave him no choice. There was no way he could pay for school, gas and car insurance so he moved. The only bad thing is he now live in Detroit on Jefferson in a two bedroom apartment. He does not have to pay for rent which is really good. I have not spoken to his parents for probably 5 months. His parents have not even called him since he moved out. We almost want to wait to see if they call him for his birthday, we will see. Now do not think that I bring up the conversations on his parents he does. It upsets me because they blame him for his Stepdad's high blood pressure and it is his fault they can not work overtime(that is why they were charging him rent). I guess if we get engaged we will have to talk to they and I told him when the time comes we will take it step by step. I just don't want to hear all the things they have been saying about me. I know they have been talking about Andrew and myself because that is the kind of thing they played when his sister was kicked out(they gave full custody to his dad). That is not the kind of thing I really want to deal with.

Well that is just some of what has been going on and I will probably post again soon there is so much more but i was at work at 4AM and I am so sleepy so I need to sleep. Hope to see everyone soon. Later All

I know its early but...

2007-09-12T07:18:45Z

I have to leave for work in 15 minutes. I tried out this game that Andrew and Andrea and his friends from work play. You have to know that I have told him it was stupid. Well, I was wrong. It is called World of Warcraft and I think it is pretty okay. I only played it because I wanted to see what all the fuss is about. Well it is pretty fun. Well thats all for now. I have more but I have to get ready for work. Have a wonderful day everyone:)

So I went out with Andrew yesterday because it was his last day in MI. He decided to go to Virginia for his spring break. So we went to Somerset Mall. It would have to be the nicest mall I have ever been to. I went to the Disney store and got a to-go mug, very cute. Went to Sharper image and got some closet organizers for shoes and accessories. Lastly we went to Nordstrom's. Yes and I did get 2 pair's of shoes( Jessica Simpson black pointed-toe pumps and black Merrell walking shoes for work). Lastly I got myself a black leather Michael Kors purse. Now I have 2 a Black leather and a tan leather purse. Excited I am. I am happy with my puchases. Don't worry I did not spend too much.;)

I am so proud of myself and let me tell you why. I decided to give my closet a makeover. I wanted to take out a shelf and raise it up so my clothes would stop touching the ground. So at 9:00 AM Thursday morning I began removing and organizing everything because I was loosing a shelf. I got everything out and then had to rip out the shelf. Well the shelves are easily removable so I did those. But unfortunately I got one stuck and ended up putting two holes in the wall. Easily fixable. Then I had to remove the wood holding the pole in place so I took those out and then had the tedious task of putting up a new closet poll. I had to enlist the help of Billy to put two screws in and then I did the other four (with a drill that I have never used). then it took me until 9:45 PM to clean my room up. It only cost me $6.21 to make my closet a whole lot bigger. I am proud of me.

The next item is going to IKEA to purchase a new desk so i can get rid of the huge corner one that Andrew's brother Michael gave to me. Then disassemble the rolltop and put it in a box type thing and store it in the garage with my corner of stuff. Put up a few more shelves to display all my glass items and then I will be all done. Go Me!!!

it has been so long since i have had an update so here it goes.
I work six days a week to get the amount of hours i need to save money. Unfortunately that means I see Andrew maybe 2 or three days a week. He is working his two jobs and going to school so if i want to see him I usually have to go see him at work. Things will most likely change as soon as I am considered full time. I am on a 90 day reveiw right now to see if I have what it takes to be a PC lead. Which I know I do but Gordon want the time to see for himself. I stepped it up and am working hard. My ultimate goal is management and Gordon thinks I can do that also. So I am working my butt off and hopefully I can get it soon.

Well Mike is moving out most likely this month. I am working with him to hep him get a decorated house for little money. That is my Christmas gift to him. Cheap you say? For me no. I get to help him with everything from paint to accessories. I get to help find an inexpensive way to make things look good. I am his labor.

Anyways back to Andrew. His birthday is this Friday and as a tradition I have started with him, I am making him any dinner he wants with any dessert he wants also. This year he picked potato fans, Chicken Rolls, broccoli and rolls. For dessert he wants funfetti cake. So when I get out of work on Thursday I have to go to the store and then straight home to cook him his wonderful dinner and dessert. I hope he likes it. I know he will because it is from me.

I realize I have not posted anything lately but that is because I have been so busy. I am working on going full time at petsmart so I can make some extra money. I am not in school right now for the simple fact that I have no extra money. My car is in the shop for a second time getting a ew transmission. Many people told me I should just get a new one but then what would that accomplish? Nothing really. Andrews stepdad Glenn has loned me his car for the second time and I really apprieciate him for that.

I have been working 5 to 6 days a week and it has really helped me I am working on payig bills and paying my mom back. I am also working on saving money to hopefully move out one day.

I know most of you do not know but my Grandma C is in the hospital and has been in there for almost a month now. She is doing better and will be going back into surgury within the next few days.

I personally am just trying to get through the next five days. I am working 9 days in a row and if you know what I do every day then you know how much stress it puts on me as an individual. Most people think 'Man how hard could it be catching fish and animals?' Well walk in my shoes for a day and find out. Have people tell you that youre wrong becausee you only work here when you know you have studied 3 and a half years and your still learning. imagine being stuck with two people that do not know what they are oing and have to help a ton of people on one of the busiest nights of the week. Its stressful.

As with me and Andrew, well were fine we do not see each other as muchas we want but that is cause he works and goes to school and I work. We have oppisite scheduals that we try to work through its hard but we'll make it. WE WILL MAKE IT.

Do you know how sweet Andrew is? Well I do. he decided to send me flowers while he was in Virginia. It was a huge suprise. i did not know they were coming either. A great end to a bad day. Talk about a loving boyfriend.

Just thinking

2006-07-24T18:59:53Z

When your boyfriend goes to three differant Hallmarks to find you the perfect birthday card you can really tell how much he cares.

And yes he did find the perfect card

So it is tuesday and Andrew is in Virginia but don't worry he will be back on august second and I want to try and get the day off so I can see him. I am going to his house Thursday and I might stay the night I am not sure yet. Then Friday I am going to go to Andrea and Missy's house and I am going to stay the night there and then Saturday I get to go to Stoney Creek. There is something wrong with my car so I had to go out and buy a radiator fan to fix it and it cost me 110 dollars. But I am getting that plus some back on Friday. I am trying to keep busy so not to think of Andrew but it does not work so i will go to work and think about fish and stuff. Have a good day

So what has been happening? Not much really. At work I am being blamed for killing 5 society Finches because they supposeddly had no water. But it is odd that in a cage with multiple kinds of birds only the society Finches died? Hmmmmm, that means it was probably not a water problem but rather that the birds were sick. because if it was a water problem then birds other then society would have died. makes you wonder.

Any how my birthday is coming up and i am hoping that I am not scheduled to work it because I called it off a few months ago. I am thinking of having a get together but I am not sure yet. i just want to play some hockey. Which reminds me that I might be able to play on the 17th if I get the 5 AM shift. That I will find out tonight.

Going to A&M's tonight to discuss some things and find out some other information about some stuff we shall see.

Lastly on my 30% off day Andrew and I went shopping for my fish tank, Hamster, and Kittens. And for 110 dollars we got 5 bads of litter (44lbs each) % bags cat food, 1 cat brush, 1 cat toy, 2 wet cat foods, 2 new cat bowls, 2 each of harnesses and leashes, i hamster ball, i hamster wheel, 1 hamster igloo, 2 bads hamster food, 1 hamster ball, 1 box hamster treats, i canister freze dried bloodworms, and one aquarium plant. not all that bad I think. Not all that bad.

What's happening?

2006-05-28T14:57:55Z

Well I have not updated in a while so let me tell you what has been going on in the past week or so. Last weekend Andrew and I went to Frankenmuth and birch Run for three days and and two nights. It was so much fun and we got to do what we wanted with out having to ask. We celebrated our 3 year anniversary by going on a trip and will probably do it every year. We want it to be a special day for us.
I went to work with Andrew a few times just so I call be with him. I really enjoyed seeing him when I awakened every morning and before I feel asleep every night. Now I miss it. Can't wait to do it every morning and night.
Friday Andrew and I went to the band banquet because I recieved a free ticket to it. James holland and Olivia were there and wanted me to go to james' house but I refused because we were going to a better place (Andrea and missy's home). Whenever Andrew was not by me James was there and whenever Andrew was James was differant. He did not was me to go with Andrew. Andrew thinks He has a thing for me but who knows. It was fun the new band teacher danced with his wife to their wedding song. then Andrew requested our sond and we danced. So Sweet.

last night was Billy's birthday party and I decided to play a few harmless tricks on him. First he left to go to get a few electronic items so I decided to drench him. Ricky put the ladder up so I could get on the roof and then threw up the hose I waited there until he got back. because I knew that he had electronic things so I locked the garage door so he would have to put the stuff down to get the key. I had the doors to the house locked so he could not get in and I drenched him. Then he took the ladder so I could not get down. I had Mike and Chris' window unlocked so i could get back in the house. I finally gave him the key. But I got to make their pizza and i decided to make it special. I put some hot sauce on it. Then this morning I tied the garage door closed all in a days work:)

It has been about two weeks since we have started planning our anniversay trip. We decided that since we have had bad anniversary days for the past two dates that we wanted to start doing something special so we decided that we were going to Frankenmuth. It will be his second time and my 5th or so. The first day we are going swimming. A pool was the one thing we wanted in the hotel and so we made sure we had one. We booked a newly remodled hotel so I am Excited to see. we are going to do as much as we can if time and weather permits. Have a great weekend and I will try to as well.

just on a whim but interesting results
