Gas prices


I grabbed this off the eq2 forums. I think it is very appropriate.

Yuck

I got my haircut last night. I dont like it. It is too short now. It was about mid back, now it is at my shoulders. It is too short. Think I said that already.

Babies got their hair cut as well. Nathan did much better this time around. He did not squirm or yell or hollar. He actually let Dana cut his hair. Trenton of course always does well with getting his hair cut. The thing with his hair is he has about 14000 colics in it. So it either has to be short or long. I really feel bad for this kid if he ever decides to let it grow out. Gonna be hell for a little while.

Nothing more pressing than that. Although if you watch House. OMFG. That was just totally unreal. I love that show. But the thing about this episode is it was a little more graphic than I really liked, lol. I can handle watching an open heart surgery on discovery, but that eyeball popping out, just really made my stomach turn.

EQUpdate: Didnt play last night, but I had dinged 68 on Krys, Monday night. Go go Cacotoxic Stain in Bonemire. Good place, I like.

A few pictures

There it is, ladies and gentlemen, the big birthday present: The Big Wheel!!

Trenton taking the slide for the plate.

They stole my bed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!! =)

This is one of my favorites, this is Nathan wanting to be like big brother and go to school.

No Internet

My new goal for this next few months (like I can keep a goal ha!) is to keep this blog up. I did really really good when I first started this blog, which is commonplace for me, and then I began to trickle off, again, this is commonplace for me. And I knew it. Now I just need to work on that.

We went without interest for a total of 8 days. Insight Communications screwed up royally, so we had no net, and we got bored. So, Scott and I decided to tear a wall down. Really. Our kitchen is now 10X12 bigger, and OMG does that make a world of difference. It's wonderful.

The one thing about waiting this long to post, is I can never quite remember what the hell I did the past couple of weeks. So I guess I will just remember what I did this weekend.

My birthday was last Thursday. I am now the ripe old age of 31. =( Well, I guess its not that bad. I did end up with a new shirt, The Fifth Element (movie), Oceans Eleven (movie), The Black Eyed Peas (cd), and Kelly Clarkson (cd). Paranthesis for those not in the know.

Nathan turnes 3 today. Now that one really makes me sad /cries. He is doing very well. For his birthday, he got: 3 games for the Vsmile, baseball cards, a baseball outfit, a book, two movies, a Dora mat for the sprinkler, and then a big wheel. YAY!! I will get some pictures up tonight, actually. I still have to download them off my camera.

Trenton is Trenton. His last day of school is the 31st. I cant believe he will be out of kindergarten and on his way to first grade. Just unreal.

EQUpdate: Krys is 85% through 67. Makes me sad though, as she should be closer to 69 by now. Oh well. Worked on Zym a little bit, she is 70% through 69 Provie, no hurry though, I am sure just making food for myself will hit me to level 70 at some point in the near future.

Okay, I promise to start updating everyday =)

The snowball effect

One day (actually, a week ago Sunday) my husband decided to fix a light out in the garage. Yup. Do you know what happened after that? Hahahahah

So anyways, he fixed the light, and now there was no power in the garage. So he went and started to rewire the garage. Ok. Well the washer/dryer are on the same circuit as the garage. He says no worries, we don't like the paneling in here, so I will just take that down and rewire a new circuit for the washer and dryer, and we can drywall the laundry room. Sure. Ok.

Well you know, I should fix this outlet on this wall (other side of the wall to the laundry room). Well we talked about taking this wall down anyways. Yup. Sure. Ok.

But now its almost done. We opened up the kitchen into the laundry room, which is now gonna be dining room. Will get pictures up, as soon as it is done. Gotta see if I have any before pictures. /ponder

Trenton has his root canal and crown done on Monday. No more screaming YAY. He feels much much better. Thank god. It was really starting to get very bad, the pain in this tooth. So bad to the point, that the two nights before the crown, he was up part of the night. I really wish they had a ER of Dentistry.

Nathan started his speech therapy on Tuesday, and had his hearing test on Wednesday. He passed that with flying colors. And speech I think is really gonna help. He needs to slow down. I think the majority of his problem is that he is speaking much quicker than his brain is thinking about forming the words. He slows down and you can actually understand what he is saying, even with 3 year old inflections (think thats the word).

EQUpdate: Krys is 66. Actually about 80% through, so I am hoping to see 67 this weekend. The acrylia changed for ad3's kinda pissed me off, and thats only cuz I sold three of those before the announcement on test. So actually, I am kicking myself in the ass for not saving those. =(

Zymeria hit 69 provie. Although, I never made food to sell. I think this tier I am, I was selling all my extras after handing stuff out to eyezes, modex and myself. Wow. Truly impressed. I just need to go on a harvesting session. Big harvesting session.

One other thing. Scott and I wanted to try out WoW, just check it out see what its all about. But they don't have a free trial. I guess they did at one point, but thats no more. So if you hear about another one, let me know, please? Thank you. =)

Its Coming

Theres an update coming today, I can feel it. Nothing much going on, but I do need to get some pictures up. Okay one little cute story.

Last night, Nathan was eating candy. Now almost 3-yr-olds do not keep a clean face, and considering it was green candy, his face, and especially on the tip of his nose. Anyways, he has me drag him into the potty, and he does his thing. He turns around to walk out and stops. He takes two steps back, looks in the mirror, looks at me, looks in the mirror, looks back at me, and says "wat happen my nose?" Hahahahaha, remember he is a little slow on his talking (starts speech next Tuesday) But that just cracked me up, and to boot, he just really started asking lots of questiosn this week, and I mean TONS.

EQupdate: Short and sweet, Zym, 69 provie, Attalyne, now 31 carpenter. Krys is 66, and I think that about it. =)

YAY!!

Well this past week has just been hell and back and ended with a bang. lol.

Let's see. A week ago Saturday was Scott's final interview with Chrysler. He called me as he got out of the interview and was on his way home. "Honey, they are gonna call me today with my schedule, pay rate, and start date" Woohoo. We both dance around and have a good day, till say, 1pm. They hadn't called. Sunday, no call. Very annoying. Scott had Tuesday and Thursday off, so he was starting to feel really anxious.

Had the phone forwarded to my cell phone on Monday, just in case. No phone call. We are making dinner and I say to him, "They are going to call you tomorrow." At this point, Scott is feeling a little sick (Worried), and I as well. To be this close to being out of Hellmart, and out of financial worries, is just too much to take.

Well about 10 on Tuesday, I call Scott to see whats going on. He says he is just playing EQ2 and is about to go take a nap. So we get off the phone and go about the rest of the day, or so I thought. He calls me back about 15 minutes later. My first question, was of course, I thought you were taking a nap? He tells me, well I was but, Chrysler just called and I have orientation tomorrow and I start work on Tuesday. WOOHOO WOOHOO.

But alas, that is a Wednesday and he has to work, oh dear, if he calls in sick he is sure to be fired, considering all the days he had taken off in the past two weeks, for Chrysler and the Post office. So he decideds to just do the right thing. He goes in and talks to the co-manager of the store and is upfront and gets things taken care of.

So Wednesdays bring orientation. 8 hours worth. I finally get to talk to him when I get home from work. He says they are in the process of switchign hours. IE going from 8 hr days to 9 hr days. And that they will call next week, and when they call, he starts the next day and of course this is all going to be second shift. Grrrrrrr. More anxiety. So then he himhaws about what to do with walmart. We get to talking and I tell him, that I think he should make Friday his last day, because he does not want to miss the phone call from Chrysler. And even if he doesnt work next week, the way paydates fall at walmart (every two weeks) versus Chrysler (every week) it wont hurt us at all.

So he going in on Thurs, tells Friday is his last day, he gets some crap about it. Hello????? $20/hr vs $8/hr. Hmmmm let me think. DuH!!! About 15 minutes later he calls me back, and says to write this down, So and so's name, h26 chassis, and then be there one hour earlier. And he starts Tuesday. "Oh and one other thing, hun. I will be on first shift" WHOOOPPPIIIIIEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About 20 minutes later, the whole roller coasters comes crashing, the tears finally end, the headache begins, and I want to just take a damn nap. But its all done.

He starts tomorrow. 45 hours this week. 9 hrs tues-fri and 9 and sat. Oh did I tell you that they pay overtime on a daily basis. After 8 hours a day, the rest are overtime. Did you know, that Saturdays are pure time and a half, regardless of how many hours you work that week. And Sundays are double time. Holy buckets of joy, batman. And next week, I think is 54 hours. Mon-sat. 9 hours a day. I think I am gonna cry again.

Easter was good. Lots of candy, lots of fun. They boys were so cranky by last night, I wanted to scream, lol. But they were very good. I have a few pictures, they were being goofs. Will get them up soon.
________________________________________________

EQUpdate: I havent been playing much, my mind just too preoccupied with other things. This weekend went well. We grouped up Friday night and ran around Sanctum of Scaleborn, that was fun. Had a really good group as well. And I really want to group with Troubadors, a hell of a lot more.

Sunday, Scott played an alt, and he got into a group with them. I threw up LFG and went on my way. Okay, I am gonna go here and rant. Some guy in the Barren Sky was /ooc for a dps or a healer for Palance of Awakened. Now, I havent been there yet and I really wanted to go, so I sent him a tell. He says I am not high enough DPS. huh????????????????????? I am a 65 wizzy, my best damage spells are adept3 or master. and I dont have enough dps?????? Ass wipe. Ended up getting a group for the Nest, and dinging 66. Rock on, baby.

Hmmm

Lots going on. Lets see.

Scotts final interview is at Chrysler tomorrow. 90% of them walk out with their schedule in hand. He also had another interview at the post office Wednesday.

Trenton had his tooth pulled yesterday. Today you would never know that the work had been done. Hes totally normal.

Nathan, well, is Nathan.

EQ, not too much going on.
___________________________________________________

Scott has his final interview tomorrow at Chrysler. 90% of them walk out with their schedule in hand. He is so nervous. They called yesterday and said that he needed to be the walk in clinic today at 1 for a final physical and a pee test. He had to go into work today and request today and tomorrow off (on top of having Wed and Thurs off) and had a talk with his boss, stating personel problems afoot. He boss was cool with it. So thank god. He was so afraid (and I was a little as well) that he would lose his wally world job, trying to get into Chrysler.

So keep those fingers crossed.
___________________________________________________

Trenton had his tooth pulled yesterday. He did allright. Although, he did scream and yell when we got home. I think the anestetic (lord knows I spelled that wrong) was wearing off. He was screaming, "I am never going back to the doctor again, you cant make me!!!!" Does not make you feel good.

So we put his lovely fallen (pulled) tooth under his pillow. And the tooth fairy brought him $2. Well Nathan didnt want to sleep well last night, so I went and laid with him, as I did not feel like fighting with him last night, (I was tired) and a few minutes later I here some noise coming from the top bunk. I look over and there is Trenton climbing down. He sees me look at him and begins waving his two dollars bills around, with a huge ass grin on his face. He was so excited. It was great to see.
________________________________________________________

Nathan has been funny this past couple days. It has been very nice out as of late. So we have been playing outside alot. And the boy really loves baseball. Well Wed night, Scott was cooking a pork roast and went to add water to it, and it was cold water to a hot glass dish, so can you guess what happened? Yes yes we exploded. So I head outside and ask the boys what they wanted for dinner. Nathans answer.... "No. Play outside." Twice he said that. Bah. The whole night, thats all I heard.

Then the next morning we wake him and the first thing out of his mouth. "outside. Baseball." This is gonna be one interesting summer.

Nathan also started gymnastics last night. He did really good, except he kept wanting to do what the other kids were doing. As in, he kept taking off and going to other centers and not the ones you are not supposed to be at. He was really cute, though, and tried really hard to get everything done.

EQupdate: Not much to update. The only day I played this week was Wed, and we went to scrawling cliffs and made a few $$.

Kids these days....

"Trenton, what did you do in school today?"

"I forgot"

"I just picked you up. How could you forget that fast?"

"Mom, I took the memory card out of my brain, and put it away." (said in all seriousness)

Gotta love them =)
