Added New Photos

April 28th, 2007

Added photos to the EA page.
Back in February, Pam asked for the photos of the snow storms. Now I’ve also added the garden photos.

  

Old Friends

April 27th, 2007

Found Patricia (or rather, she found me) on Facebook.
Apparently she works in Pairs now for the US Congress. How glam!!! I remember how she was just a little girl in high school, even then she’s got the prettiest shoes :)
One of these days, I’ll really have to see these people.

  

Lost Cow

April 24th, 2007

I was walking in the yard, when I red truck came by and drove to the back of the property. SO told me that the guy had lost his cow, and he came to see if the cow had wondered to the back woods.
The cow was not found, but still… adventurous day.

  

Gardening

2007 Vegetable Garden Quarters
SO and I spent the whole day gardening. We started with the vegetable garden plan last year, and we finally finished creating all 12 beds. All the evergreens are still very stick like and the fruit trees don’t look very impressive either, but most of what we planted last year are doing really well. We had to dig up all the variety mints, since they took over the right quarter circle garden completely. This year, we’ll probably plant them in pots instead.
I thought it was going to take forever to clear out the winter mess, it was so bad that the boarders were indistinguishable. But it only took a couple of hours, and then another couple of hours for watering.

  

Done with PE (for now…)

April 22nd, 2007

I took the PE exam on Friday, and it was looooooooooooooong~~~~
I thought I did pretty well, cause normally I can’t sit still for 4 hours at a time. But apparently I took more restroom breaks than anyone else in the exam room.

  

Keeping Fingers Crossed

April 17th, 2007

I’m starting to get worked up about the PE exam.
Yeah, I know it’s a little late for that, since the exam is on Friday. It’s one of those things where you try to hit the right spot; not TOO much studying (because then it discredits you when you pass, plus it’s just soooooooo painful), but not too little that you fail either. I’ve been studying for about 2 months. Actual hours… about 50. The recommended hours is about 300… We’ll see how I do.
Today I called the Amway Grand. I really like this hotel, they’re so nice there. The lady confirmed my room reservation for Thursday, and ensured that I’ll be well taken care of on that day. I’m a bit excited, since it feels like forever since I last traveled. I’m planning to have dinner at the 1913 room (which is suppose to be one of the best restaurants in Michigan), and have room service on Friday morning for some scrambled eggs.
I’ve already decided what I’m going to wear (sweatpants, t-shirt, and a sweatshirt), what I’m going to bring (about ten thousand text books and two calculators), and what I’ll have for snack (bottle of water, can of coke, chocolate chip cookies, popcorn, grapes, Cheetos, and gum). Hopefully I won’t get held up on Thursday after work; I plan on going to dinner then surveying the test site before turning in early.

Got these break-n-bake at Martin’s, because they’re on sale…

  

The Shoppe

April 15th, 2007

Got a hair cut today at the local salon. This is a HUGE step, not only because I had about a foot of hair chopped off, but usually these life changing decisions are made with Leo. Now I feel a little top heavy :)

  

Photo Album Fixed!!!

April 14th, 2007

I think I’m going to cry with joy now! Seriously, you don’t understand the feeling of gratitude for this guy who’s fixed the bug (http://www.flickr.com/photos/dragfyre/)… I really don’t know who he is…
I’ve uploaded the NY Spring Break photos, ones that I took at MoMA. Also added our vegetable garden plan. Enjoy!

  

Easter Weekend

April 11th, 2007

SO and I went to see Sedaris on Sunday. We go once a year and I’m glad he read almost all new material this time. I think he’ll have a book out soon, I’m really excited.
Back home now… Been trying to clean out my room. It’s crazy how much stuff I can fit in here… really amazing…
