We're back... worried weren't you? :)

After some time we have decided that positive thinking is the way to go!! Today my job wasn't posted :( Texas workforce wants to discuss the "seperation" from my last employer, and I still don't have a paycheck... SO yeah on to the positive thinking... Today was my inlaws birthdays, I know crazy they have the same birthday, same year, and only about 1 hour apart (taking into consideration the time change as they were not born in the same time zone) My silly friend Kell didn't even believe it, my FIL even talked to her about it it was funny :) He was a good sport! I made them brownies and had dinner with them at their house. Kevin is out of town so I was playing both parts :) Don't worry, he'll be back tomorrow morning :) We are heading to the lake to spend the night, play on the boat (if the weather agrees) and just hang out... I hope we remember pillows.... we ALWAYS forget pillows... I am glad that some things seemed to have settled down and for the weekend atleast I can worry about remember pillows, so much better than during the week... On monday though it's back to the grind... lol

The good, and the bad.... we're skipping the ugly lol

So Kev and I paid our taxes today... ugh hopefully next year will be very different, considering I will have a different job. School should help also. Atleast we were able to pay on time and don't have to worry about it anymore!! :) I am glad for that...

Onto the good.... We are going to be cold!! Okay so that doesn't sound too good but most know that I don't do heat real well lol and we got central air put in today, talk about exciting! For us anyways haha :) I am glad, I was not ready for a summer here with no AC haha

Today was otherwise a fairly productive day and tomorrow will be a little less but still productive nonetheless. Sam was supposed to get a shot and a check up but they over scheduled the vet and so no :) I do have to visit the college and fill out even more paperwork yay :)

Testing...

So on Monday (much to my boss' dismay *rolls eyes*) I took a HESI exam. It tested my math skills, reading comprehesion, and vocab and general knowledge. I had bought the study guide and studied a little, but was mostly disappointed with not so much the guide itself, but the content is easier than I was expecting, considering it is a part of the entrance to nursing school with a 14% chance of starting this fall. I did very well, even the nursing teaching staff I had to turn my scores into were impressed. :) go me!! I got a 96% in math, a 93.62% in reading, and 98% in vocab. With an average of 95.87% I earned myself 5 more points. So I am hoping that 11 (maybe 12, not sure) out of 14 points will be higher than 600 other students and I can start in the fall... I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can start! Now all there is to do is to wait... I hate that part, atleast another month before I know anything else.

Relay for life anyone?

Kevin and I have decided to join in Relay for life. We are putting together a team and working on donations and all that kinda stuff. So of course a nice little plug for ourselves on our own page lol :) So here is our link, if you are local and want to join, let us know! If you want to help otherwise that is awesome too! If none of the above works for you then just wish us luck! Thanks

We got a new microwave..... again

Well our recently purchased microwave went kaput and so today I exchanged it for a new one. Hopefully this one will prove all of the good reviews I'd read about it. Keep your fingers crossed :-P This weekend we spent some time at the lake house. It was COLD lol hopefully the next time we go it won't be so cold and we can actually visit the lake lol :)

We can be such slackers :)

Yes yes I know we aren't very good lately about updating but you know :) So the only new news I have is that I've been accepted for school in the fall and am waiting for them to decide on which credits they are going to take. Keeping my fingers crossed that it is most of them.... Although I know there are some they are not going to like and some that well my grade probably wasn't high enough, which is only one, maybe two, but honestly it wasn't entirely my fault.... oh well though.

We also are going to be spending a lot of time at the lake now that it is getting warmer, pretty much a weekend that kevin is not on call... we will be at the lake fun stuff :)

Also I went to see the dietician this last week. He said that I am doing a pretty good job on my own and just wanted to tweak my diet. I have successfully lost 7 pounds in a month, not easy but definately is getting easier and more habit.

More updates later!!

Tennis....

Today Kev and I went out and played tennis with our friends Chris and Tosha. We had a blast. I have been waiting for a long time to go. I had my racquet and balls for quite some time now but today we finally got to go play :) It was like 70 today! of course though with the typical amarillo wind it was a little cooler, but you know. Now for the kicker.... it's supposed to snow tonight! Go figure haha.
