Snakes!!!

So here's a picture of us at the Iowa State Fair. My sister wanted to be in air conditioning and the snake exhibit was. It was cool in there! Lots of cool snakes to look at!!. Then at the end you could get your picture taken with a ten foot albino python. It was pretty cool, i think alicia was more freaked out,because she had the head, which is what my sistered wanted to be by, because she absolotely loves snakes. well, it was fun and always a good memory! Thanks girls!!!

Hump Day news!!!

hello everyone! well, i have been home for over a week. i have had some really sweet jobs cleaning houses. one guy paid me 100 dollars to just sit and wait for the gas guy to come. i was only there for like 3 hours. then i cleaned a house and got some goods from that. so it hasn't been so bad. i have been cooking dinners and getting tony's lunches ready. i finally go to go on a much needed shopping trip with my friend christine. so all in all it's been good. tony and i got the truck fixed so i think i may have him convinced i should drive the toyota. well, i was just stopping by to say hello and to let everyone know things are great and will definately just keep getting better. hope everyone back there is okay and t.d, hope you have a great trip! hope to see you soon. make sure you guys take pictures of mary's wedding so i can see what i missed, since i had to be home so bad! hahaha anyways love you all!

Back into reality... it ain't so bad. well, ok it's good!!!

I will be pleased to let you know, that i am back and in action in the wonderful state of washington. It feels 20 degrees cooler, which i can tolerate!!! i have my bed, my dog, plants to attend to, places to go. it's all wonderful. My latest trip back home, has put a new face upon me. which i was hoping for. Something to ponder. well, i was hoping for it to put some persepctive back into my life. bring me up to pace with what i should be striving for, in my old age, neverless. so it did, i realized i need to do something for me, be able to contribute to this society properly and ultimately be able to fend for myself. no more relying on my partners to do it for me or my family or daddy. i need to do something for me. so i am going to push myself to sign up for school to become a nurse. to work for hospice and put out my ability to take care of people, very lovingly. because that is what i love to do, take care and let people rest assure that i can support them in the end of their lives. I also became more aquainted with my family while i was back and it was on a positve note, i might add. this leads me to want to be closer to them and to my faith. so another quest is to push myself to attend church, here. something my gama's would be very proud of! which is ultimately something i want them to see in me. to be proud of my accomplishments and see how a young lovely women can take care of herself properly. so when i have a family they can see it too, knowing i really have this in myself, is what disapoints me. all these years, with this goals and ideas and no where to put them. so i will no longer dote on what i should have done and just do it!
Also, i am back in the groove with my daily life of cooking, cleaning, taking care of the plants, the dog, running errands and just being me in my life. and to even make it better, tony doesn't bother me in the mornings to make him lunch, because he is being nice. so my stay back home has made me noticably worthy and needed but, i truly realized that i have a wonderful life with a lot of people who really do love me. also, i miss everyone and love you all so much! wish all of you lived closer!
