Sorry for the long time between posts. I think I'm too private of a person for a blog sometimes. But, then I realized-you can write about anything!
The kids moved this past week or so, so I was helping them with that. With only a few arguments, I think we were successful. They will be living with Kathie until they find a place, which will hopefully help with the wedding budget :) We need to start moving on that again, we haven't even really talked about it for weeks! I miss talking about it....
I leave for Orlando in 23 days, which is scary. I have a lot of stuff to do at work in the meantime, and I'm beginning to wonder when I'll get it all done to be honest with you. I know it will get done because it has to, but still...it's nerve wracking and is doing it's job on my stomach a bit. I have a very nervous stomach for all of those who don't know...which probably anyone reading this doesn't know. I'll never forget my first week on my ship in Guam, I don't think I ate the whole time...eek. I should get nervous more often, maybe it would help me drop a few lbs! Haha!
The kittens are great. Cuter than ever actually. Cheddar is sleeping, spread eagle, in my little closet. Mozzie is probably doing the same in the window sill. Ah, the simple pleasures.
Oh, I've gotten back into crossword puzzles. Don't know how I went so long without them!
Peace out!

On that note
I saw a comment my friend SP left for another friend, and apparently I am not upkeeping my blog enough! My apologies everyone!
The reason why is: I'm boring. I work, and then work, and then go to work some more. This week I accidentally went to my second job on Monday even though I didn't have to work. That's how much I work it feels like.
With that being said, everything is going well. Father's Day...yuck. But, other than that, it seems as if everything is in order in Milwaukee. Just getting ready for our meeting in July, which means even more work! Haha!
Peace!

Hey to the folks
Sorry it's been a while peeps, life has been utterly hectic. Although I love it, I realize that some things in my life take a back burner, such as my blog :)
Let's start at last weekend: Virginia. Had a great time surprising Star for her 30th birthday (which was in April, but whatever!). Betty picked me up at the airport and we went to Star's house and she was kind of like "Wait? What? Why are you here? What's going on?" It was too funny! The rest of the weekend was about Star, Betty, and hanging out with each other, it was great. Betty is about to give birth any day now, but boy is she a trooper!
This weekend was Brooke and Hairy's wedding (and no he doesn't spell it like that, I do). It was a beautiful wedding, and I'm so glad they asked me to be a part of it! I got to see tons of people I haven't seen in ages, which was great. But, this turned out to be the longest weekend ever!
Flash forward to Saturday morning: woke up w/ no water thanks to a leak in the basement, so I went to Mikey and Per's hotel room to shower. We all met for breakfast at 10:30 (Mikey, Per, Tianna, Aaron, Kathie, and myself), and then after that off to Pewaukee for Jeffrey's soccer tournament. During the tournament Brian phoned me to ask if I could drive him to the airport for his grandma's funeral. Being that so many people have driven me to and from the airport, I had to pay it forward. After more soccer, I leave to go get Brian, and after I pick him up we hear a tornado siren, although it looks perfectly fine. We keep going, and eventually even hear another siren. I drop him off, and it starts a torrential downpour. I get phone calls, etc telling me to get somewhere safe so I go to Brooke and Hairy's as they have a basement. I wait out the storm with them, and head home to check on the kittens, etc. As I couldn't sleep at my house b/c who knew when the water would get turned back on, I head over to Kathie's to eventually go to Madison to hang out w/ Nicki. I take the exit to go to Kathie's and try turning down SS and it's blocked off b/c it's flooding! And, I'm not driving my car I'm driving my friend A's little Kia Rio! I barely get it out of there and phone over to Kathie's to make sure everyone is all right. Well, they aren't, the house is flooding. I take a different exit and am able to make it there just in time to bail water for about two hours!
After the rain stopped and we had things under control we were walking around. Everything was flooded. Part of the road busted out because of all the pressure, that's how bad it was! That night we order pizza and pass out pretty early. JUST TO DO IT AGAIN THIS MORNING!!!!!!!! This rain is out of control!
But, I'm home now and the kittens are safe, so don't worry about them.
On a sad note, today is the two year anniversary of my mom passing. The day was pretty hectic so I haven't had time to be sad, but sometimes I want to be sad so I don't know how I feel about that. But, this is a shout out to my mom, Jules, the greatest mom ever. I hope she knows how much she's loved and missed by everyone, especially me.
I hope this was a good update for everyone! Loves!
