Where to start...

Ok, so I haven't done any big updates because I don't get comments so I don't think people are reading but here is a nice big one for you. I just typed all this up, and then blogger kicked me off when I was almost done so now I have to re-type it all. I'll start with most recent news since it is so fresh.

First: I spent the last three days in bed sick with food poisoning. WARNING: DO NOT EAT AT MCDONALD'S BY OUR APARTMENTS!!! If you have never had food poisoning, I will never wish that pain on anyone! I was absolutely miserable! It felt like someone was tearing my stomach in pieces! I missed work too so my next paycheck isn't going to be the best.

Second: My mom came over on Monday and Ray's mom came over on Tuesday to see our apartment. Ray's mom brought me flowers and she brought us a fan and our microwave. It was nice for Ray to have that microwave the last couple of days since I couldn't cook for him.

Third: On Saturday we had our family's annual August Birthdays celebration. It was nice to see everyone. Ray came with me and he wanted to stay longer than me so he could play volleyball! It seemed like he had a good time which I'm glad about. My grandma had hip replacement recently and she was doing great, walking really well. My grandpa got an ipod for his bday present, he can't wait to put his classical music on there! I got to see Jaime's engagement ring, it's one carat round solataire, it's so pretty! The wedding is going to be next summer so I'm excited for that! Jace and I read some books while everyone else played volleyball, that was our fun time. It was sad to have Janae gone but I know she is having fun at WSU. She got into the Sarority (I don't know how to spell that) that she wanted so that was fun to hear! Melissa is back at school also. Her last year so she started applying to medical school. She got something back from UW saying they wanted to interview or something so we're all hoping she gets accepted there!

Fourth: The apartment is slowly coming together. I finally got a vacuum the other day and the carpet looks much better. We haven't done anything with the spare bedroom, until we have a desk not much we can do. We still need a futon cover and some dining chairs. The only bedroom furniture we have is a bed right now, I know what I want, just a matter of getting it.

Fifth: My paychecks once a month are going to be great! I got $500 in commissions last month, the end of September I will have over $1000 in commissions! I'm so excited! That's on top of my regular pay!

So that is about how life is going right now. I would love to get more comments so I know that people are actually reading/interested. ;-) Hope all is well with y'all! (sorry still no pictures until I get a computer, anyone feeling generous?)

Updates

Just thought I would give y'all a little update. Ray and I are unpacked. Putting stuff together was not so fun, the bar was impossible to put together but the finished product looks great. I don't think it has quite hit me yet that we're living together. It's been good so far. We finally have a pretty full fridge. It took like 5 shopping trips to get it that way. The first one was the biggest. I get paid on Friday, my first commission check!, so I'm doing some shopping of stuff that we don't have yet. I'm getting off work early on Saturday to go to the family August party. Then after that Jen is having her 30th bday party. Should be a fun night. I'm excited. Apparently Misty's bacherlorette party is Friday night, we'll see if I'm still invited though. Anyway, things are going very well. Life is good right now, Ray even said we could go shopping for rings! :D

TODAY IS MOVE DAY!!

Hey everyone!! I have been sooo busy lately packing and working! I worked 23 hours of overtime this week, working a total of 63 hours for the week!!! That is crazy!! (nice money though) The last couple of days have been crazy. I got home last night, finished packing until 11pm then this morning my dad and I got up at 6am and loaded up the truck and the car and were on the road by 7am and had everything unloaded in the apartment by 7:30. I got some stuff put away before I had to get in the shower but now I am at work and I can see Ray and Randy unloading from their trucks and I wish I was over there. 6 more hours to go. I'm so happy and excited and YEAHH!! Just wanted to fill y'all in on how I was feeling today, besides being tired. Hope all is well with you!
