Family Time

Well, I didn't do much today. Hung out around the house and spent time with the family. My dad cooked his famous hot wings tonight. I love when he cooks them. Everybody is always home and we sit around in the kitchen eating batches of wings as he cooks up more. Everybody having drinks and socializing; it's so much fun. I love to hear my mom and dad tell stories of them back in the day. One of the stories that I think is so funny: When my mom was about 13, her and a friend wanted to go to the "picture show" (movies for those of you who don't know-I didn't either). So, my grandma is driving down the interstate to take them and they get pulled over. The cop asks my grandma, "Ma'am, do you know why I stopped you?" Grandma says, "Well, I wasn't speedin' was I?" The cop proceeds to say, "No ma'am, you were going too SLOW. We have a minimum speed of 45 on interstates, you were going 30." My mom said her and her friend laughed so hard about that all night! She said she was so embarassed! That's so funny to me; I would be embarassed too if I was a young teenager in the car and my mom got pulled over for that! And my grandma thought she might have been speeding, that's too funny! I like when my dad tells stories too because I always get to aggravate him. He'll tell a story about drinking with friends or sneaking out/in. Then I get to aggravate him about always getting on to me for the stuff I did when I was younger. His philosophy to me has ALWAYS been: Do as I say, not as I DID! My dad's a trip! We are so much alike. Some of my favorite memories of us are at our old house when we would have food fights. He'd start picking on my about something at the dinner table and I'd toss a pickle or something on his plate. Then he'd toss it back and hit me in the head with it. That done it! It was an all out food fight then! We were bad about cracking eggs on each others heads (sometimes for no reason) or squirting mustard on each other. And I'm not talking about just a little-we would be covered in food. It was always so much fun! We haven't had a food fight in a long time-over a year. Since we moved in our house and he started his truckin' business he's not home a lot. I think tomorrow I'll surprise him with an egg on the head--I'll let y'all know how that goes! It's funny how we are so alike. People even say I look like him. That's weird considering he's my dad, not my father. I always tease my mom and tell her she must have had a drunken one night stand with him years ago and got me; and they just happened to meet and get together 8 years ago.

Well, time to go. I'm gonna get my room picked up and wash some clothes. Talk to you guys tomorrow!

Weekends are Wonderful!

Hey gang! Everyone needs to go to Sarah's blog and check it out! She finally decided to join us! I know, bout time right?! (Hey Angela, ya like how I figured out the whole "link" thing on my own? It took me long enough! If you'd get your butt online I could've saved tons of time! just kidding! *smiles*)

Well, today at work was pretty boring, but that's ok because it's FRIDAY!!!!! I'm really happy the weekend is here. I don't know why, I don't have any special plans this weekend. But, next weekend is gonna be interesting. My sister's wedding is the 23rd. It's going to be really interesting to see how well I can walk down the isle in that huge dress and high heels. As you all know, I don't do dresses! And my sister can't have us wearing regular dresses at her wedding, we are wearing the kind that's strapless at the top and at the waist it flares out real big like them ballroom dresses. (I guess that's what they're called.) I'm probably gonna fall, that's my luck! But, if I do, I'll just play it off and laugh. It sounds like something I'd do anyway to be silly! Not really, my sister would probably shoot me if I pulled some mess like that at her wedding! I can't wait to see Hailey in her flower girl dress! She's gonna be so adorable! This past February my other sister got married and Hailey was the flower girl in it too. She was so cute! She got about half way down the isle putting out her petals. When she was out of petals she looked up and realized everyone was watching her. She got embarassed and straight dashed toward my mom! It was so funny! I'll be sure to post a few pictures next weekend of the wedding, but don't think you'll see me in any of them! Not gonna happen!

Well guys, that's it for tonight. I'm gonna go. I guess I'll talk to you guys tomorrow!

I'm back!

Hello to everyone! I know you all have missed me! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. These last few days have been extremely busy! EARLY Saturday morning we had to take my grandma to the hospital. She didn't get out until late Tuesday night. She's been staying here with my family and I since then. She's gotten pretty bad off, she actually almost died over the weekend. I thank God that she didn't. I love her so much! I've enjoyed having her here with me the last few days. It's been a lot of fun hanging out with her but it does keep me pretty busy. She's pretty stubborn about things. She doesn't want to let anyone help her eat, or get around, or anything else. She's pretty good about letting me help her, I think it's just because I've always been the goofy one with her. She has always said that I was the sweetest one of the whole family. But, you all already know I'm sweet! *smiles*

These last few days at work have been pretty boring. They are doing a good job of keeping me and Sarah separated, with all the calls we have. They won't even put us on calls on the same bridge. They have actually kept me separated from just about everyone I talk to at work. It sucks! The days are so boring! I can't wait for IR season to end! Back to goofing off and pushing the rules! Hey, gotta keep the work day interesting!

I'm keeping Shanna tonight. (Sarah's daughter) She's so sweet and quiet. Not at all what I'm used to! Hailey is some what of a hellian (don't know how to spell that one!). I don't mind keeping Shanna at all! Sarah says I spoil her. Everytime I keep her I let her stay up late and when she does go to bed she gets to sleep with me (something else Sarah doesn't allow). Plus I always get her candy and let her pick out her own breakfast. I think that's why she loves me so much! She was so cute tonight; she rode with me to take Daniel to work and he was picking on her (like he does EVERYbody!). She just looked at him with a big grin and said, "Go to work Dingle!" I laughed so hard my stomach was hurting! She has always called him "Dingle" instead of "Daniel". It's so cute. And to hear Shanna get an "attitude" with someone is so funny because she is always so quiet! When we got to Kroger, I had to go inside and pick up a few things. We had been inside about 20 mins and Shanna looked at me and said, "I'm getting ill and tired. We should go home." And she was just as serious as she could be. So, of course I headed to the check out, let her pick out her candy (and some for Hailey too-Shanna said it wasn't fair for her to get candy and Hailey not have any), and we were on our way home. She's a trip! I love her to death!

Well, we still don't know who Brandy's stalker is. I think they got scared though. They haven't been messing with her lately. That's good! I guess they know what's best for them. I still have no clue as to who it could be but I'm sure, no...I'm positive we will find out before too much longer!

Well gang, I'm gonna go get some sleep now. Shanna's done with her cookies and strawberry milk that she picked out (she's saving her M&Ms for in the morning), and she wants me to lay down with her. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow! Hopefully it'll be a wonderful day! It's Friday AND payday! woohoo!

You have been warned!

Well, as most of you already know, Brandy has a cyber stalker. This is what I have to say to that person: What the hell do you think you are doing? If you really work at Intercall as your profile says, then you know that Brandy is not the best person to mess with. Not only does she take care of her own, but she has plenty of friends who've got her back. I guess that's why you're too much of a scared ass to let your identity be known. But it's ok, you can keep hiding behind your screenname, you WILL be outed eventually. And when you are, well, let's just say you're pretty much gonna wish you hadn't done all this cowardly shit. You are just some lonely bitch that sits at home and wishes they could be like someone else. You have no life! What you really need to be doing is getting off your ass, going out and finding some friends. Believe me, when all is said and done, you WILL need any and every person you can find to have your back. You really don't want to deal with all of us that have Brandy's back. Consider yourself warned. And remember, ALL is fair in love and WAR!!!!!!

Now that we got that taken care of, IT'S FRIDAY!!! Isn't that great?! Weekends are so wonderful! I don't really have too much planned except Shanna's birthday party. I'll be there tomorrow at 1:00. I'm hoping I get to take Hailey with me. Other than that, we plan on having a pretty calm weekend and catching up on sleep.

Well, I'm off to F'nP town. Yes Angela! I'm on my way! Talk to you guys tomorrow!

It's me!

Ok Cathy, here it is....a picture of me! It's not the best picture but, it'll have to do. This was taken on Christmas (2003) while opening gifts and gathering trash bags full of wrapping paper. I think I need to put a few of the more "interesting" pictures on here......

What Type of Soul Do You Have?

This really is me! Everyone loves me AND I'm a genius! WOW!


You're just the happy go-lucky type. You might
have your pet peeves, but other than that, you're
mainly calm. Blending in with your
surroundings, you're the type of person
who everyone likes. Usually it's you who cracks
jokes at social gatherings - after all,
laughter is the best medicine. Sometimes
you pretend to be stupid, but in all actuality, you
could be the next Einstein.

Today was a pretty good day. Work went by fast because I stayed on calls pretty much all day. And after I got home me and Daniel went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse. I love that place! Afterwards, we went shopping and I got some new clothes and a new pair of shoes. I love shopping!!! Now that we are finally home, it's already time to catch some sleep. Sorry not much interesting today, more tomorrow....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, today was a pretty good day I must say! I got to work on time this morning (I woke up late and really didn't think I was gonna make it!) When I got there I got a present and a card! Yay! Thank you to Angela, Sarah, Brandy, Cathy, Cynthia, and everyone else! I loved my candle holder and card! My room is full of candles and picture frames, those are my favorites! Also, thanks to Beckah, Sarah, and Wayne! They sent me flowers and a teddy bear, oh so cute! And, I got a dozen roses from Daniel. They are so pretty! Then, when I got home, my mom had made me a pound cake--my favorite! My mom and dad gave me money (always great to have!), and my sister got me a candleholder & candle (told you I love candles!)

Well, that's about it for tonight. I'm off to take Daniel to work. More tomorrow...
