Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

5-0, 5-0 Here we go, here we go

Exiting news Chris has managed to get two written warnings for his headlight being out this month! So hopefully he will get that fixed tomorrow. This week I made 2 referrals at work and I sold the first signature line of cedit that the branch has made since it's preapproval offer started. Yeah for me! The branch manager and office manager were so excited I was turning bright red while they were cheering! :)

Chris and I spent last saturday babysitting Devon while Casi, Shane and Austin went to a party. I'll upload and post those pictures tomorrow on my day off. I observed another classroom for my education class- this time it was a 6th grade language arts class. All they worked on for both classes were writing a memoir so it was pretty boring because there was nothing going on- thankfully the classes are only 47 mintes long.

Whew!


Hey, Hey! I got all the pictures uploaded now! All 325 of them! I probably should have split them up into two albums, it takes it a minute to open up. But HEY! We did a lot of fun things such as This Helicopter ride with Brent and Amanda where we saw Disney and other fun things from the a birds eye view.



Check us out at Universal where we spent four days, and most of our money. See the very cool putt-putt course we beat. Check out Makenna just being such a little cutie and see the rest of the family just hanging out. Most of the pictures we took using our Birthdays/Anniversary/next years birthdays present from my mom and dad. A new VideoCamcorder. It's awesome.



I'll have videos posted as I get them up. I'm still playing catch up with school homework and trying to get my volunteer things done (I have to get a TB shot for this!) But a fun thing I did take time to do was order some more of the makeup that Amanda got me for my birthday :)



I just wanted to prove to Ashley and Austin that we really did meet Scooby-Doo and Shaggy. And look at our faces, you just might think we seen a ghost or something!

Horror Make Up Show at Universal Studios

Watch and laugh at the Horror Make-Up Show.
The videos are slightly edited and you should watch from top to bottom. (Sorry, my video host only allows 5 min. clips without paying, but don't worry- not all are five minutes.)

We are back from vacation! I will be posting pictures and videos soon- hopefully Monday so check back Tuesday! If Rene from The horror make-up show stops by I'll put your video up first Monday!

I did want to post about work today! It was exciting- first thing after I get my drawer ready- I got my fingers snagged (I call it more like SLAMMED) in the safe door. Now that door is steel- very heavy. It hurt like a ***Your Choice****. I was surprised I didn't cry- I guess it was too painful it sort of bypassed the whole need for crying. So no one saw me jump and grab my fingers so I thought, "I'll just play it off and go to my window and slowly move my fingers without anyone having to know how blond I am.

Basically the door is so heavy and I didn't want it to slam shut I tried stopping it with only one hand and that doesn't work so wellwhen the door weighs more than you do. Needless to say I didn't pull my fingers out of the way fast enough- however- I did get it slowed down and it didn't crush my bones.

I did need to ask for a band aid because my index finger had a little blood from where I pulled it as the door started closing. So Carrie asked, ''what's you do, let me see it...'' then she went to get me a band aid and next thing I know, I'm being woke up from a deep sleep.
I'm told that I must have gone into shock because the pain from the door was too much for body too handle. Which is why the pain in my fingers that I had before I passed out was totally gone when I came too.
I got a nice little rug burn mark on my face from the carpet that I thought I would share with you.


As I told Chris. the worst feeling in the world is when I was coming around again. Like I just remember looking out the drive through window then my ears started ringing then I'm being woke up. Carrie nor Andy saw me fall because she was getting the band aid and Andy was playing with papers for the courier. Like I always thought if I was ever going to pass out I would know it, but no, not this time. I've totally lost that 20 seconds or so of my life. :( But it was so scary because I had no clue where I was at while I was getting up. I thought "I've already woken up today" but that's all I could think of then it was like silent static throughout my body. I know I never want to slam my fingers in the safe door again.

Vacation is on the way!

Right on! Vacation is only a mere 5 days a way and I am ready! I think we are going to sea world and going to ride air boats in swamps :0 you know like they do on CSI:Miami. Other than that- I do no know what we are going to be doing. There has been talks of Universal Studios, Disney - but who knows.

I did my first classroom observation yesterday for my education class. I really didn't get to observe because she had me working! I was to work the Art Station and the Student Teacher was doing all the teaching because another teacher's son got sick and had to leave. So... I need to go back.

But to make that trip even more exciting - one of the boys in the classroom got suspended for bringing a knife to school that morning. Isn't that nice? It was like a 'welcome' the teacher said.

Chris is getting a little overworked at work. He's ran into some problems with sending guys away on jobs just to find out the salesman over exaggerated the problem to the service department and no tech was actually needed, nor were they wanted. Then one job site didn't have any materials and said they thought that Sullair would be bringing them. So it was a bust.

I don't know if I told you but my car is back. Safe and sound. It's not the same though ;( When you switch gear stick thing it's just off... you put it in reverse but it doesn't look like reverse and it won't click when you pull it from R to D. So I have to look down every time instead of just counting the clicks.

Well - I got more school work to do!
