Rooni-Rules  This weekend was my weekend off... and I worked harder than I do during the week. Over the weekend I primed and painted the master bed room, painted the two other rooms upstairs, painted the living room twice ( cuz the first time it turned pink-y... it looked like a salmon exploded on my walls), painted the three season porch and peeled the wall paper off the kitchen walls. PS wall paper is the DEVIL! The previous owners put wallpaper in the kitchen from the floor to the ceiling... so I got to peel it, steam it, and take a scrapper to the parts that didn't want to come peacefully. Granted I had help with all this, it still sucked! Now all I have to do is wait till I get paid on Friday, order carpet for the two rooms upstairs and the porch, reseal the decks and pay Jay to hook up the outdoor lights and put in more electrical sockets... and get living room furniture... yeah ironically the room Mitch is renting is the only one I didn't have to do anything too... The joys of having a house! AHHH I OWN A HOUSE and now its PRETTY!!!!! If anyone wants a tour, call me. <3 Radle I'm going to Arizona... I'm going to Arizona!!!!!!!!!! Bring on the sunshine, bring on the heat and HELLO MEXICO!!!!!!!!!! Current mood:  giddy.
I am ecstatic because I have Bambi sitting freezer rapped in the basement. Kurt took my hunting this year and it was fricken awesome. I only went closing weekend, but I got a deer Saturday morning. I think what made it so fun was Kurt's niece Kate. She has to be the one of the coolest kids EVER. Strange, but cool. She is only 11, so she can't kill anything yet, but she came out and sat with us. She even helped gut my deer, because she wanted to... All in all the weekend was fun, even though I was sick for most of it. Kurt was so sweet trying to take care of me. He made me tea to help calm my stomach and would keep checking up on me to make sure my blankets were still tucked in tight and that I was still comfortable. Now I just have to survive the next few weeks of school and then I have almost two solid weeks with my honey. The whole week of Christmas we will be together and then we fly to Arizona on the 8th of January Current mood: giddy.
How I will always remember Katie: Katie Lee was crazy in the best possible way. She would dance in the rain and climb trees even when wearing skirts. She often went skinny-dipping in the moonlight, and running through the parks at night. This woman faked a seizure in Target just because her friend dared her to. Most of all she loved to swim and go turtle hunting, and always had a smile on. In the 23 years she gifted this earth, she accomplished more and lived a fuller life than most 80 year olds. Today was the formal goodbye for the beautiful Miss Katie Lee. Two weeks ago she lost her battle to leukemia, leaving us with nothing but her precious memory. At the memorial service, dozens got up and told their favorite stories of Katie. There was tears, but mainly laughter, which is what Katie would have wanted. One man described her best when he said "Katie is proof that there is a God...because only he could make such a beautiful soul". She left instructions that we were to celebrate her life, not mourn her passing. She always encouraged people to live their lives, and to enjoy every minute because there is no guarantee of tomorrow. So in honor and celebration of Katie's life, I ask you all to do something spontaneous and crazy, just for the fun of it. Dance under the stars, just to dance. Climb a tree just because. Ride shopping carts through Wal-Mart(bonus points if you get asked to leave). And most of all I ask that none of you take a day for granted... She will be missed, but never forgotten WE LOVE YOU BREEZIE Sadly, the cat that I have had for the past 20 years died last Wednesday. From what we could tell, she just went quietly in the garage. I know she was old, but it was still a little heartbreaking. Nellie had been my kitty for as long as I can remember... I mean this is the cat that would walk to the corner to meet me and Val when we got off the school bus when we were little or that would let us dress her up in doll cloths and put her in a cradle. She was an awesome pet, and I miss her greatly. Current mood:  nostalgic.
I am having yet another wonderful weekend. I am currently down in Barnevield (by madison) visiting Heidi and Kurt and it has been absolutely fantastic. I have missed hanging out with Heidi so much, so to have a 5 day weekend with her has been awesome. Unfortunately she has had to work a day or two (or fortunately) and so Kurt has been taking me out on the town and doting on me way to much. The fact that he drives me everywhere and insists on paying for everything almost makes me feel bad. I even tried to steal the check at Olive Garden, but he just laughed and held my purse hostage until I handed the bill over. So far I have got to meet his sister and nephew Dawson-- who is adorable. Kurt took me and Dawson bowling the other morning and it was a blast. He is so cute with his nephew... If you exclude the little fiasco we had when it came to Heidi and Keven moving into an apartment in Mt. Horob, this weekend has been one of the most relaxing and fun weekends I have had in god knows how long. Ladies and Gent's, I am proud to say my life has taken a complete 100% turn for the better... Current mood:  bouncy.
OMG!! I just had one of the best weekends of my life! Kurt came to see me and just wow!!! He was beyond a perfect gentleman. He opened doors, insisted on paying for everything, and was so sweet... (I am not used to someone doting on me like that.) He treated me out to dinner, bowling, the drive in... and the list goes on and on. And its just the way he looks at me... ;) For the first time in a long time I am genuinely happy. Current mood:  ecstatic.
My baby turns 21 today!!!!!!!!!! Happy birthday sweety. Love love!! Ok people. Listen up. I think that everyone that uses LJ is old enough to not act like petty 5 year olds. Publicly insulting someone in your journal embarrasses you more than the person you are attacking because all your post proves is how small of a person you really are. Time to grow up just a little and handle your problems like adults. And if for some reason you cannot talk to the person, e-mail them, or post a personal LJ that only they can see. What ever it takes, these malicious, vindictive little slams need to stop. This isn’t preschool, so stop shitting yourselves. (And this is not just directed at one person, although it is meant for some more than others.) Current mood:  sick.
*sigh* Back form two days of freezing my ass off hunting, and didn't bring back a single furry four legger. I saw 2, but they were running away through thick brush so I didn't have a good, clean shot. And as my father’s daughter, I only shoot when I can kill it with one blast. The deer shouldn’t feel a thing. so now my week looks very chilly…..: ( Jon can tell you, I’m a heat whore. So now to bed because I got up at 5 am and sat in the woods for almost 11 hours. (oh and so did Jon) So, what did everyone else do this weekend??? Current mood:  groggy.
