The gym!

The weekend is just around the corner.  As usual I'm ready for it!  This past one I found out Johnny Davis (a guy who worked for Woodfin but retired about a year or so ago) passed away.  He had been in the hospital for a while but I was hoping he would pull through.  He was one of my favorite Woodfin people.  He was just a great person and reminded me of my grandpa.  My heart beaks for his family.  The funeral was yesterday and I went as did many other Woodfin employees.  It was a nice service and I made it through with minimal crying.

Sam left for NY early yesterday morning.  He should be home today and I hope it's sooner than later!  I miss him!

I finally got the doggies groomed this past weekend too.  They smell and look so pretty!!  I wish I could afford to do it more often but it really adds up!  They were nervous when I dropped them off.  Poor Lula was shaking.  But  when I picked them up the progress report they gave me said they behaved just fine while they were there!  Ha!

Sam and I went to the gym together on Saturday and I was surprised at myself for doing 20 mins on the elliptical machine without stopping!  Go me!  I thought for sure I would give up at 10 mins!  We also did some weights.  It felt good to work out.  I miss it!  I need to start going more often since I do have 2 memberships to 2 gyms!  Haha!  On Sunday I went to Missy's for a pampered chef party and only ordered one thing since really I don't need anything.  It was fun though!

Ok this next little paragraph is just venting so if you rather not read my little hissy fit then skip it...lol.

I can't stand it when people are so ungrateful!  People put themselves in situations and then not only complain and cry about it but are unappreciative to those who help them out!  They take advantage of good people and it really makes me sick.  It's so aggravating!  Grrrr!!
I think that's it for now.  That wasn't too bad :)

Sold!!!

It's already Friday again.  Yay.  It's been quite the week.  A long and exhausting one.  Last Friday Sam surprised me with an iPad 2!  I was very excited.  He told me he was going to be late because he needed to have the oil changed in his car and that they had found a nail in one of his tires.  But really he was waiting in line to get me the iPad I'm using to type this blog!  He is so sweet!  I couldn't believe it when he gave it to me.  It really is the coolest thing. And I haven't even figured out all I can do with it yet.  It takes picture and video.  I can play piano and drums on it, games, and watch my Netflix too!  Right now I don't have Internet unless I'm around a wifi hotspot but I'm thinking it may be worth it to get a plan with Verizon for it.  The one he got me is 3G capable too.  I want to make sure I use it to its fullest potential thats for sure.  

Monday when I came into work I found out that gmail and chat had been blocked.  And a letter went out telling everyone that Internet use is a no no at work.  We have had similar ones before.  My feelings are if my work isn't suffering and I'm getting my job done then why does it hurt to chat or surf the web.  I understand I'm here to do a job we all are but we are here 40hrs a week and a little break here and there shouldn't be the end of the world.  I guess some abuse it.  Ugh sometimes I feel like I'm back in high school with teachers breathing down my neck or a child with my parents.  Telling me what I can and can't wear.  What I can and can't do.  Who I should and shouldn't talk to.  Even what I should and shouldn't post on Facebook!  It gets old and it's annoying.  But hey I need my job so I better comply.  That doesn't mean I can't complain about it though!

Anyway I guess that's what started my week off bad.    

It got better because I sold my refrigerator for some cold hard cash!!  I went by Grandmas Monday to clean it out.  Then took her out to dinner at Primas.  It was nice and she seemed to enjoy my company because she didn't want me to leave when I dropped her back at the house.  She always does that to me!  She had company all this week though.  My sis checks on her and then I was back there with mom and dad on Wednesday to meet the people who bought the fridge.  It was sad to see it go because my folks gave it to me.  I split the money with them though!

On Thursday night I had dinner with the girls at a buffet place over on Laburnum.  It was ok but I probably wouldn't go back there again.  I just don't enjoy them like I use to because I don't like to stuff my self on that stuff.  Blah.  It was nice seeing everyone of course!  And we had a good time as usual.

Sam and I haven't had dinner together at all this week for multiple reasons.  Either him working late or my plans.  I've missed him!  But we get to have tonight for us.  Yay!  This weekend we don't have much planned.  Sunday I have a pampered chef party at Missy's house but besides that I plan to chill out and relax!  The weather is going to be nice so I want to enjoy it!

My favorites :)

Just wanted to share a few of my favorite LOL cats!  Teehee!  Love it!  They are sooo cute!

Insert Catchy title here....

Lets see....the weekend held all sorts of fun (sense sarcasm)!  Saturday morning I went to a "friends" house to pickup a few things of mine.  My refrigerator and kitchen cart that I was letting them borrow until I found out yet again I was being lied to by someone I trusted.  After finding that out I sent a short and sweet text to this person letting them know I had in fact sold the items and needed them emptied out and ready by the weekend.  That was a lie but I figured that was better than causing a fight that I really didn't feel like dealing with and more on her level anyway.  (Let it be known that the refrigerator was a second one being used in the garage so its not like I was taking their only one.)  However that text (and it really wasn't mean at all) caused this person to lash out at me and hurl insults not only about me but my boyfriend as well.  I couldn't believe the way she was reacting and held back for the first day of her childish texts.  The next day when they continued I finally let her know the real reason behind me wanting my things back on such short notice.  She told me over and over how friends don't treat each other like this so I simply asked her to think about what she did to breech our friendship.  Her response was she had no idea and would love for me to tell her.  I ignored it.  The next text was her saying exactly what it was.  But instead of apologizing she had an excuse of course.  The thing that made me the most angry is the fact that she had not only been talking to my ex husband (and then lying to me about it) but that she had talked to him about MY BOYFRIEND!  The things she told my ex really sent me over the edge since she actually doesn't even know Sam.  I told her that and also let her know that she would never get to know him either.  Again she insulted me saying I was acting like a 14 year old.  To which I thought but did not text...that was way better than what she was acting like.  I just ignored the next few texts until she got the hint.  But before she finally left me alone she threw in threats to call Garrick and let him know the stuff was there, told me how she wasn't happy with me or my decisions lately, that they (her and her husband) thought Sam and I didn't make a good couple and the reasoning was because he seemed like a "5 start hotel kinda guy" and I was more of "a camping girl."  I wasn't sure how to take that.  Was she saying I wasn't good enough for Sam or calling him a snob?  Another text confirmed it was the latter.  Either way I was livid.  Like I said they don't even know him!  As a matter of fact he likes camping just as much as I do!  They have hung out with Sam a max of 3 or 4 times and lets not forget that we as a couple are still pretty new.  We are still getting to know each other and of course until he gets to know them its going to be awkward.  I'm guessing she was expecting us to be exactly the same as when Garrick and I were together?  I don't know.  I'm not sure what she wants from me.  To be with someone else just like Garrick?  Give me a break!  We all see how that worked out.  There is no comparing the two of them.  Sam is a funny, intelligent, sweet, generous, responsible man where as Garrick is a lying, selfish, irresponsible, sorry excuse for a man.  And that is me being nice!  Whew.  Even typing all this is exhausting!  And its the short version!  That's really all that needs to be said about it besides the obvious that I have now cut this person out of my life.  Life is too short for that kind of crap.  I need people in my life that love and support me and that can be happy for me that I'm happy!  I have learned over the years myself that sometimes you just need to keep your mouth shut and realize that if your friend is happy than that's all that matters.  Its their life and as long as they aren't in a situation where they are being abused mentally or physically or harmed in any way then for God's sake let them be! 


"Learn to accept it or let it go!" 


So Saturday was spent like I said before getting my refrigerator and kitchen cart back.  That evening however we watched The Social Network.  It wasn't a bad movie I guess but I probably won't watch it again.  Sunday we got up and headed to Fredericksburg to help Sam's sister move some stuff.  It wasn't bad at all plus we got to visit with his family some and that was nice.  We stopped by Bass Pro shops to walk around and to also eat at the Fish Company restaurant.  It was yummy as usual!  After that we went by another Red Box to exchange The Social Network for Winter's Bone.  I was even more disappointed in that movie.  Haha!  The best movies these days seem to be cartoons.  I absolutely loved Toy Story 3 when we watched it!  I think the next one we might get will be How to train you Dragon.  I've heard good stuff about it. 


Ok I think I have gone on and on enough in this blog.  So I'll go ahead and tie it up :)
