Well hey there! LOL. :teeth:
Oh boy do I feel only a few inches high. Why? Well, y’see these last few days I haven’t been on the Internet coz our billing with Earthlink got messed up and we thought they had cut us off. BUT. A few days ago, Brad got a few features on our phone turned off that we don’t use. Like three way calling, CALL WAITING, call forwarding.. yenno stuff like that?

Then I go to connect to Earthlink, I had call waiting disabled so that my Callwave would work. Well, that call waiting got turned off coz we don’t use it, right? So whenever I’d try to dial up, It wouldn’t work. COZ I WAS STILL TRYING TO TURN OFF CALL WAITING, :LOL: I just figured it out a few minutes ago. Atleast Earthlink didn’t turn off our internet haha. I could have been online all those days.. ah well. Feels good to be back on though!!!

Brad and I had a money-tight weekend but it was alright – none the less. Around 8PM Friday night, we went to see Gatlin and Megan and hang out for a bit. We ate McDonalds that night for din-din and OOO, the new spicy chicken sandwich is YUMMY. Saturday, we went shoppin for groceries at Wally World, like usual. Then, since we didn’t have much to do thinking we didn’t have the Internet anymore until we pay it, we watched Saw I & II. Sunday, we went and did laundry then did a bit of house cleaning. Oh oh oh!!! BRAD GOT A RAISE at work!!! He’s now up to $12 an hour! I’m so proud of him! That means we’ll have $100 more a week! Yay!!!

Alright, well, I have a lot of catching up to do on websites haha so I’m gonna go! I imagine i’ll be up all night since I’m super excited to be back!!!
Later loves!

Woohoo and WOOT.
happy, happy, happy…
2 years, 7 months

To the Bradleyish and meeee!!! :love:
Getting us closer and closer to the 3 YEAR anniversary mark!!! I can’t wait either!!! He’s asleep on the couch at the moment. :sleep:

I got up at like 6AM this morning so I’m kindof sleepy myself. Well, our dog Abigail has had many male doggies coming around. Uh-oh. Big uh-oh, actually. I haven’t seen any IN ACTION but I did catch her and one of the male dogs that had come around get uh.. stuck. *sigh* We figure if/when she winds up getting pregnant, we’re gonna get rid of her. It’s our fault if she winds up pregnant but we don’t have the money to get her fixed and I DEFINETLY DO NOT want to bring her back in. Now that I’ve gotten used to not having a dog in the house that poops/pees and stinks up the couches. Ah well.

In other pregnancy-related news, Brads Stepmom (who got pregnant last late summer with her 2nd child by Brad’s Dad) had the baby boy yesterday at 6:09PM! Apparently, when she went in for her appointment, they said that the baby didn’t have enough fluid err.. somethin so they decided to go ahead and do a c-section. The baby wasn’t due for the c-section until the end of March so when he was born, he only weighed 3 pounds but hopefully everything went alright! Brad now has 1 half-sister and 1 half-brother! Hah.

I’m gonna make porkchops tonight so yay! :teeth: I like frying porkchops and I’ll either make some fries with it or maybe some corn or peas or maybe both fries and corn or peas! Yum, yum. Uggggh and more UGH. It’s been raining allllll dayyy looonggg here. :yuck: Welp, that wraps up my seemingly not-that-interesting entry.

Later lovies!

Wheeee!!! Hey! I’ve been in an EXCELLENT mood all day long!!! :teeth:

Let’s see.. last night Brad’s Grandma called and asked us If we wanted to come eat dinner with her and we said yes! But I had been fussin at Brad earlier about keepin the house tidy and I got kindof aggitated and he fell asleep on the couch so I just went into the bedroom and wound up falling asleep off and on. We told his Grandma we’d come over at 5:30PM and it was about 6PM when I heard Brad in the living room say, “Shellie!” In a really panic-stricken voice, haha. I just layed there. He called his Grandma and said we’d be right over. I got up and got dressed and we headed on over. We had leftovers from the big Saturday dinner since some of Brad’s relatives had come to visit. Had chicken/dumplings, green beans, baked sweet potatoe, dressing and pimento beans. It was yummy! I was STUFFFFFED afterwards!!! :dead:

Got back home and Brad was getting ready to go to bed so I go back there with him and talk and then after a bit, Brad saw some lights shine on the bedroom window and we knew someone was here. We got up and It was Brad’s cousin James. He came over to show us his new razor phone! He didn’t stay too long and then he had to go. Went back into the bedroom with Brad to say goodnight but wound up doing a lot more! :RAWR: OH man.. I just have to say it was the BEST!! :love: Like, ever. About 2 hours later, I said the real goodnight! Hah. So from then on, I was a happy happy happy girlie! : I was tiiired though. I think It was like 10PM when I came back to the puter and I stayed up but towards midnight, I was exhausted and ready to sleep but I was wanting something to eat so I ate a burrito. It was yummy and then I was READY to crash and sleeeep!!! :sleep: And that’s just what I did.

Woke up at 11AM today and watched Oprah, good episode too about the Katrina victims. After that went off, I fed Trev his food and did a few more things before Days of Our Lives came on. Soon as that was over, I washed the dishes and so began my cleaning frenzy. It was SUCH a lovellly day outside. Not too cold but the sun was shining and It was great!!!!!! So I turned the ceiling fan on low and opened the hallway window. I just felt so full of energy! So I cleaned the WHOLE kitchen, swept and mopped! Reorganized the fridge and the pantry. Cleaned the bathroom – swept and mopped that too. Cleaned the bird cages and then made the living room, bedroom and storage room more tidy.
Vaccumed the living room rug and made sure the floors were all swept. Last thing I did was polish some stuff in the living room then we had supper AT THE DINING ROOM TABLE!!! Surprise! Only because we wanted to watch American Idol! Hah. It was good though. While that was on, Brad baked muffins! Then I baked chocolate chip cookies! Yummmmy. And then at 9PM, he headed for bed but we laughed and poked and laughed some more then finally, 47 minutes after all the sillyness, I said goodnight to him and here I am!!! Been checking out my dailies and PANIC! message board! You all should really go join and say that I referred you? That’d be great!
Ah, I tell ya cleaning the house up is tough work but it’s totally worth it to me. To finally sit down and look at the work I’ve accomplished. I feel great about it!!

Well, I’m getting hella thirsty and want a snack so I’m off to get that and mess with other things online! Until next time, later my loves!

Hey guys!!!!! :teeth: How did everyones weekends go? Mine started out well then got worse. :blank:

I woke up before Brad Saturday morning!!! :O The clock said It was 7:45AM-ish when I woke up and I layed there for a bit then finally, hubby opened his eyes too, heh. Finally got up a tiny bit after 8AM, fixed us some chicken patties sandwiches! After that, got dressed, makeup, straightened hair, got rest of the stuff together and called Mom before we headed out. It was um.. almost 10AM when we left the trailor. It was around 11AM when we got there. I set up Rocko and Pipers cages then helped Mom cook porkchops!!!
Cathy (my aunt), Steve and his Mom, Helen arrived a little after 1PM, I think It was. They had-had some car trouble when they were getting pretty close so that worried Mom a whole bunch but they finally made it!!! OMG, It was so good to see Cathy again!!! :grinny: It was a bit weird to be around Steve (coz he used to be on drugs and a few years ago, he sent me disturbing, dirty emails) but everything went alright. We ate and ate and ate. Haha. We stayed up until after midnight telling story after story. It was really great and fun!!! I was so glad to go to sleep in my old bed coz It’s nice and comfy and with 3 people smoking in the house, my eyes were ready for some shuttin.
Woke up around 10AM and sat around and talked some more. Steve attempted to put some transmission fluid in his car but then something started leaking. Believe It was his oil so uhhh-oh. They wanted to go to Wal-Mart so Brad and Steve had to push the car out of the way so Brad and Mom could get their vehicles out. I’m not sure what Steve is gonna do about the car or how/when they’ll go home. I’m gonna call Mom here in a bit and ask what’s up with that and if they got it fixed or not. They planned on leaving Sunday evening but couldn’t with the car messed up.
Anyhow, they all loaded up in Moms car and Brad and I in his truck. Wondered around Wal-Mart then we all wound up eating at the little snack bar there. Joked around some more and had some good laughs. Mom got a hot dog and commented that it was as “hard as a preachers dick at a wedding” I was like OMFG.. :LMAO: Never expected a comment like that from Mom, hahaha!!!! :dizzy: Stayed there a bit longer then came back to the house and wound up eating a piece of chocolate cake. Yummy.

Brad and I knew we had to leave soon since it was getting into the afternoon and we still grocery shopping to do. We loaded up and said our goodbyes!!! Steve’s Mom gave me $40 as a late wedding present! OOOOH and Saturday we watched mine and Brad’s wedding tape, heh. :grinny:
Brad and I drove back home to drop off the animals and I went to get Piper and Rocko water and uh.. there was no water. Uhhh-oh. Our pipes had frozen since It had gotten really cold Saturday night. :BLAH: Of course, that really upset Brad so he was slinging things around so I just sat quietly. He took off his shoes, put his wallet and things away so I knew we weren’t going anywhere anytime soon. I didn’t know what to say to him or what to do so I just sat. :grumpy: After almost 2 hours or so – we finally went grocery shoppin and that wasn’t that fun either, seeing as how he was acting and all. But, he finally came out with it and said that he was really frustrated and all. He bought a pipe heating kit that was $15 and we also got Saw II! Once we got home, he started to talk more but when he acts like that, he just makes me so crazy! I finally cried and told him that I hate it when this stuff happens coz I just don’t know what to do or say. Things got smooth again. We ate pizza + bagel bites for dinner!!!! We went outside to see if we could wrap that pipe heating thing around the pipes but it was too cold and Brad wanted to wait until today to do it so we went inside and watched Saw II! OMG, i really, really, really loved that movie! So TWISTED and just nicely done, in my opinion! :teeth: We watched some of the special features and then he went to bed.

Oh, oh. While at Wal-Mart with my Mom and the gang, Brad and I found a venus fly trap!!! I’ve had one before so we bought this one to see If we could get it to live. Their really interesting.
I got up this morning around 11AM and a bit ago.. I heard something in the bathroom.. WATER!!!!! Yay! So our pipes are alright now and I’ve got the water barely running so they won’t do that again. That was definetly a pain in the ass. Uggh and Earthlink (our dial up service) hasn’t sent us our bill but they sent me an email saying that our bill was overdue? :yell: :WTF: ??? I’m guessing they think we’re gonna pay online but we don’t have a credit card. They sent us a bill to our mailbox last month, guess we’ll have to call and tell them to do that again. The bill was due yesterday so I’m hoping they won’t cut us off.
Anyhow, Brad should be home soon so I’m gonna go!
P.S. – new smilies!!!! Their tiny but I love them since they don’t buldge the single space lines of typing!!!
Later lovies! :MUAH:

Whee! I can’t waiiiiit for tomorrow!!! I’m so stoked bout getting to see my Aunt again!
This weekend is also the weekend Brad’s Uncle got to come down and he got here this afternoon. He’s from Georgia too! I’ve never met him so Brad and I went over to his Grandmas to talk to him and boy oh boy he is a hoot! He’s a really great guy to talk to. He has tons and tons and tons of stories to tell. We ate dinner with them and then Brad’s Aunt Carol came over and talked with us as well. We finally left a little after 9PM.

I cleaned Rocko and Pipers cages so that they’ll be all fresh for tomorrow! Gotta make sure I get everything I want to take with me. Brad set the alarm for 9AM but he said he might wake up before then and I told him If he’s up @ 8AM to go ahead and wake me up coz I still have quite a bit to do when I wake up. Feed the animals, straighten my hair, get stuff together, load Rocko/Pipers cages on the back of the truck, get something to eat, put on makeup, etc etc ETC!!!!!!
We have a “winter storm watch” and an 80% chance of it. Eh, I dunno I have my doubts about it. I went to sleep last night and had left the fan on in the living room with no heater coz it was kindof warm. We also had the fan on in the bedroom on low and I didn’t cover up with any sheets but then I woke up around 10:30AM this morning and was FREEZING MY ASS OFF!!!!! I got up, turned off the fan in the bedroom and went to check on the animals since I had thought about the fan still being on it and freezing. Trev was clinging onto his heating pad for dear life, haha. He was really cold so I turned on his lights and Rocko looked cold too so I put him near the heater and of course turned off the fan.
Crazy weather!!!! I hope It doesn’t do much of anything, really.. since we have to travel tomorrow and all. Once we get back Sunday, we’re gonna spend more time with Brad’s Uncle Robert and he wants to come over and see all our animals, lol.

EEE! Well, I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend. I’ll update sometime Sunday!
Oooh, thank you all SO SO much for the comments! I love getting comments!
I’m about to go get a shower and once I come back I’m gonna install new smilies and change/tweak a few things on the site and probably eat an ice cream sandwich, eventually dry my hair then a bit later head to bed!
Bye for now!!!!

YES! My Aunt Cathy is definetly coming to Moms house Saturday!!!!!!!!! Cathy lives in Georgia and I haven’t seen her since September so I’m definetly looking forward to that! All my life, I grew up thinking she was my “older sister” and that’s pretty much how I feel towards her. So yay!!!!

Did you guys have a good Valentines Day? Brad was sick! He decided to stay home from work. I went to bed about 3:30AM Tuesday and he woke me up at 4:30AM and kept waking me and then when I did try to go back to sleep, I couldn’t. *sigh* While I was attempting sleep, he went to the doctors and they gave him a shot. He said he felt a bit better later in the day. We had a good Valentines Day though, heh. I was waaaay tired yesterday though from not getting hardly any sleep. I went to bed at around midnight last night and slept till almost noon today! I feel lots better now and it’s a pretty day outside!

Now I just can’t wait for the weekend!!!!!!!! :woohoo:
Well, my hubby is home now so I’m gonna go for now!
Later lovies!

Oooo, one more thing!!! I’ll be 20 a month from today! Can’t wait for that either! Brad’s is in less than a month!

just wanted to wish everyone a..

HAPPY VALENTINESDAY!!!

:excited:

Helllllo! How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was alright.
Friday night, we asked Gatlin was he was doin and he said him and a friend were goin to Tupelo so Brad wanted us to go along. Gatlin’s friend was going to buy some books so we were gonna go back to Book-a-Million. *sigh* We go there pretty much every weekend and I’m not much of a book person so to say the least, I wasn’t that satisfied. And it was RAINING again. BLAH! We leave and got there before them, considering Brad was doing 80-90 the whole way there!!!!! Brad bought me a mocha frapp so that kindof made me feel a bit more chipper but not much. They finally got there and the guys went looking at books so off to the animals/pets section I went. We finally left and they wanted to go to the mall. Went there and of COURSE they went straight to Gamestop and I’m not that much of a video game person either so I went looking at the V-Day stuff that was in the mall. Finally went in Gamestop and they were lookin at PS2 games. Gatlin’s friend left to go to Hot Topic and Spencers. We stayed a bit longer then went to find Gatlin’s friend. Went into Spencers then after a while, headed to FYE. Gatlin and his friend left to go since the weather was supposed to turn icy. Brad and I lingered in FYE a bit more then went to Romancing the Stone and I was definetly feeling much more chipper. Played with the hermit crabs and we left to try to decide where to go to eat. Couldn’t decide but I wanted to go to Petsmart! (Of course.) Looked and looked. It was stillllll raining when we left there. Drove to Wal-Mart and picked up a few groceries and Valentines Day stuff!
After Wally World, we finally decided we’d go to Hardee’s for supper. Went through the drive-thru and got our fooood. It was yummmmy. Got home, ate and then.. not too much else.

Slept in late Saturday and we planned to go see my Mom since I had bought her a V-Day card + cute little stuffed animal and wanted to give it to her and just get to sit and visit. Left that afternoon to go to Wal-Mart (again) to buy a few more non-cold groceries so that Brad could get some extra money (from the check) to get gas. When we got out of Wal-Mart, IT WAS SNOWING!!!! Like, kindof big flakes! It was lovely. Got gas and I called Mom and told her about the snow and that we were on our way! Mom got a new roof! OOoh and I brought my female birdy, Illy (the one that’s really affectionate towards me) so Mom could see her! Stayed at Moms house a couple of hours – ate some soup and mashed potatoes, which, were SO yummy. Chatted mostly about animals. It was 9:30pm when we went to Wal-Mart (yet, once again!) to buy the rest of our groceries (the cold stuff mostly) and once we were done, came back to Moms to get Illy and say our goodbyes.

Sunday! We slept in late (again) and guess what? Went to Wally World AGAIN! Haha. Just to buy a few more things. Didn’t do much else yesterday I don’t think.
Guess what though??? My Aunt Cathy just MIGHT be coming to see Mom this weekend! If the weather behaves and there’s nothing that comes up or goes wrong. I really, really hope she gets to because I haven’t seen her since September. She tried to come down for Christmas but the brakes on the car they had went out so she was really, really disappointed about that. EEE!! If she gets to come then she’ll get to see our wedding tape!!!!!! If everything works out and Cathy gets to come then I’m bringing Rocko (our chinchilla) and Piper (our dwarf bunny) so Mom can see Rocko and Cathy can see them both!!!!!! :woohoo:

Last night, I cleaned Rocko and Trevs cages and straightened up the living room then today, I cleaned all the other animal cages and swept + vaccumed the floors.
Oh, oh! When we got home from Wal-Mart late Saturday night, here at the trailor there was like almost an INCH of snow!!! It was sooooo pretty and white but REALLY COLD. It was all gone the next morning though.
Alright, well, it’s 6 o’clock and I guess I’ll go see what we can have for din-din and get some SOCKS on since my feet are cold!!!
Later loves

Hey! How is everyone? Good I hope!!!
I’ve been listening a lot lately to my All American Rejects new CD. I’ve had it a while but never really listened to it. So I got out all the new CDs I got a while back but haven’t really listened to and am starting to give my ear a listen for them.

Meant to say this last weekend but forgot to…
Saturday I took my digi cam and took new pics of the animals and the trailor!!!! So..
click! new pics!

OMG! I got SO FRIGGIN MAD at Abby today. Do you remember that stray dog Brad’s cousin wanted us to take? Well, he basically lives outside in our yard and well everytime I let Abby outside to go to the bathroom, she doesn’t. She just goes and plays with that stray dog and then Brad’s lab Buddy and doesn’t do her business. Then, when she comes in and goes to sleep at night, I wake up to a nice pile’o poop in the kitchen. Tis a lovely thing to wake up to!!!!!! *sarcasm* Well, I let her outside today and she went to playin. I waited a bit then went to call her in. Of COURSE she just looked at me and continued chasing the stray dog. Waited. Still nothing. I put on my sandals and tried to go after her. She just kept running with the stray dog. Not listening ONE BIT to me. She even followed him DOWN THE ROAD!!!!!! I tried calling her nicely, tried screaming for her to come – telling her to “STOP!” Did she listen? Not ONCE. I went down the road to try to get her. Same thing happened and then they ran back to our yard. By then, I was out of breath from running and fussing haha. I came back inside, angered. Waited a bit then went back out to try AGAIN. This time I brought FOOD! The stray male came and ate but Abby would run everytime I tried to come near. I was getting FED UP with it. All THIS just to get her to come inside? I THINK NOT. Know what got her to come inside? Me shining Brad’s flashlight outside! (it was daylight but yeah) IT DID THE TRICK! I fussed at her once I got her inside and put her in the storage room. Once Brad got home, I told him I can’t take it anymore. And I CAN’T! I’m sooooooo sick of it. She won’t come. She poops and pees in the house, STILL. She finds every piece of paperish thing and rips it to shreds. The other night, Brad took a nap on the couch and while he was sleeping, Abby chewed HOLES on the end of his jeans!!!!!! Brad got her and put her outside and she’s been out there ever since. Then tonight, while we were eating dinner she was sitting at the window on the porch having a whining fit but OH! WELL! I don’t want to deal with her anymore. We went to watch Bones at Brad’s Grandmas tonight and when we came back home, Brad asked If I wanted to let her back in tonight. HAAAAAA. I said NOPE! I don’t think I want her back in the house. I’d like to get rid of her, really. She’s just TOO MUCH of a hassle. When we do get rid of her, I don’t want another dog until we have a place with a FENCE/GATE! Otherwise, no dog.

Monday evening Brad called the guy that was selling the house and he was there at the moment and said we could come see it!!!! So we loaded up to go see it. Here’s the story of the house: This couple lived there and once they got older, the wife had gotten sick and went into a nursing home and the husband lived elsewhere. They had 3 kids and that’s who we got to meet, were their 3 children. The 2 brothers were working on the house and the sister had a house right next to the one we were looking at – which was built by her Dad. They were all quite nice. The house is REALLY OLD. Like 40-50. Really, really unique things about it, too. You know how houses have light switches on the inside that have a flip switch? These switches had BUTTONS! 2 buttons. One to press to turn on, the other off. Talk about old!!! The wiring is old too, of course. Has a lot of doors on the inside. The carpet in the double dining room is really, really, really OLD. Like orangeish colored. They don’t even make that carpet anymore. The 1 bathroom was SUPER SUPER tiny so the brothers are remaking it a bit bigger because that was the main complaint of people who came to look at the house. The tiny outside basement was dug up by their Dad!!! It was tiny but really neat. I dunno though.. it’s just really old. We know we’re not gonna buy it though. OH! It’s for rent too!!! We may rent it but I dunno. We’re gonna look around more and stuff. The lady (the brothers sister) works at a place where they make the curtains for the motorhomes. Brad works at the motorhome place so I think I might look into it. She said they start you off at $7.30 or so and can get up to $9 somethin. Sounds pretty good.

I have no idea what I want to do with my life, really. What I want to become. I’d really love something with animals but I don’t know what. I don’t wanna be a vet. Pet shop owner would take too much money + commitment. Brad and I were talking about future careers and we both don’t know what we wanna be, lol. I got pretty upset over it last night too.. but Brad reassured me everything will work out and I know he’s right but sometimes I just feel like such a lost cause.
One last thing… all afternoon I’ve been working on myspace to try to make it look good. I think I’ve done a pretty good job SO FAR. I’ve still got quite a bit to fix up and stuff but yenno, I think it’s kindof pointless to fix it up if it’s not used for anything No one comments or anything… so If you read this entry and have a myspace, let me know and maybe we can be myspace friends? Hah. I’m pitiful. I was fixing up my own custom friend list where I could list my top 8 and I only have 7 friends! ..Sadness.
Anyhow, even though it looks CRAPPY at the moment coz I’m still majorly working on it..
visit /lovegeek, add me?

Gonna update my current status then get back to working on myspace!
Later loves.

Hey guys!!! I had a goooood weekend! I’ll explain in a sec but first, a late Friday Five!!!!!

01) Who is your favorite person to hang out with? Uh.. Brad’s the person I hang out with most now haha.. used to be my best friend Krista.
02) Who is your favorite person to talk to on the phone?: My Mom.
03) Who is your favorite person to talk to online?: Uh, anyone? lol.
04) What’s the best inside joke you share with someone?: “EAT MO CHIKEN” hah. I miss that girl *sigh*
05) What’s the best memory you share with a best friend?: SO MANY. With me and Krista.. we used to sing along together to the Spice Girls (HAHA) um we’d dress up in silly things and have a “fashion show” for my Mom, LOL. The time we were watching some movie and eating chicken pot pies. We heard a knock on the window and Kris got up and stepped in the chicken pot pie!!!! It was hilarious! Those were the days.

Now then! As for my weekend.. Friday night Brad and I decided to go to Tupelo, just us! We left and it had started raining and a little bit of lightning. It was pretty rough driving conditions. We get to Tupelo and go to Petsmart for a bit. We wound up buying our Rocko a wooden ledge to go in his cage that he can either sleep on or leap on/from. Also picked up a drink and candy bar for both of us before leaving Petsmart. Decided to eat dinner at TACO BELL! Heck yesh. I ordered 3 burritos, lol. 1 too many for me! Brad got this new meal.. can’t think of what it was. I was STUFFED by the time I ate my 2nd burrito so I let him have the last one. GOOD DINNER! I love Taco Bell. The manager there was stupid though. Everytime he’d set an order on the counter, he’d shout “ORDER NUMBER ___, THANK YOU, COME AGAIN” and he’d say it EVERYTIME. And he was trying to sound black too haha.
After getting stuffed, we headed to Books-A-Million. A guy that I went to High School with works there, haha. We looked around forrrrrevvvvver. Brad was wanting a book about zombies. He didn’t really find anything so then he wanted SOMETHING. Looked and looked and looked. I think we were there almost 3 hours or so. Finally, he found a book he wanted and then we both went and got a mocha frappicino! Man, that was sooo, so so GOOD!
Left Tupelo and then on the way home, stopped by Wally World to pick up animal food and a few other things. We slept in late Saturday morning. Got up and got ready coz his Grandparents wanted us to come to their house at like 4PM since we were going to Russellville with them to eat then go grocery shopping. We decided to leave here a little early and go looking for houses for rent in Red Bay. No luck really… lots of houses for SALE but not RENT. Went ahead to his Grandparents house. Left his truck at their house and we all loaded up in the car. On the way there, we asked them if they knew of any houses for rent and they didn’t really. BUT! Brad’s Grandpa did mention that he knew this one guy pretty well and he has a house for sale. His Grandpa said we’d go see it once we got back.
Once we were in Russellville, his Grandpa wanted to show us the house that Brad’s Mom had wanted to get if they were able to move back down here. Took a while to find but it looked like a pretty house. The houses around that area though are GORGEOUS and HUUUUUGE. Like 3 storys!!!!!!!! I was in awe.
We were trying to decide on where to eat. There was a Capt’n D’s but Brad didn’t want seafood. There was a Taco Bell but we had just had that last night. We finally decided on a place called Jonathan’s Steakhouse. It’s a steakhouse named after this boy who got killed in a car wreck.. (I think) I ordered grilled shrimp dinner (who would of though, eh? lol) and some cole slaw and fries. Brad got a half rack of ribs and fries. That shrimp was the biggest shrimp I’ve seen ina LONG TIME. It was amazingly good too.
Went to Wally World Supercenter and went shoppin for groceries! But Brad.. *sigh* Here’s how he is. He’ll get paid. We pay our bills, get groceries but If we have ANY extra (we had like $140 for groceries and we only spent like $77) he wants to buy things and blow is all EVERY weekend! I kept telling him that we NEED TO SAVE! He got all negative and kindof depressed. We were doin our grocery shoppin and I’d ask If he thought we needed somethin and he’d be like “No!” Tryin to be all pouty and all. I don’t know what I’m gonna do with him. He was still pretty pouty all the way back to Red Bay.
We got to see that house his Grandpa was talking about and OMG!!! It’s really neat! It has a lot of windows. It’s white – from what I hear they just repainted it not too long ago. It has a GARAGE! Storage shed in the back and a storm shelter!!!! Has an “L” shaped porch and apparently 3 bedrooms! Doesn’t really have a front yard coz it’s right at the road but It does have a decent backyard. The guy wants like $45,000 for it. I realllllly like it!
Anyhow, got back to his Grandparents house then drove back home and I put away groceries and stuff. Sunday, we didn’t do much cept go back to Wally World to pick up a few extra things we had forgotten Saturday night.
Brad’s gonna drive by the house again and get the number for it and call the guy to see when would be the best time to meet up with him and get to see the INSIDE of the house! I’m really excited. If it’s half way decent inside (which I’m really hoping so!) then we may ask him about how much It would cost us to move in and all. I dunno though, It’d be GREAT to have a house but then we’d be kindof stuck in Red Bay but I mean, we don’t really have that much of a choice now. There aren’t many apartment places in Red Bay and almost all of them don’t allow pets. Found a trailor for rent.. but I don’t want to live in another trailor. Can’t find any houses for rent.. so why not try to go with this? I don’t know how in the world we’d pay for it but we’d just have to take it a day at a time and I would definetly have to get a job to help pay it and I’m 100% willing to do that. But if we DID get this house – we COULD GET DSL AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! We’d have our own little HOUSE!!!! 3 BEDROOMS!!!! 1 bedroom would be our room, other we figured we could turn into an office room and then the other will be kindof a little storage room but will be used in a few YEARS by a little bundle of joy !!
I think I’m getting a bit ahead of myself about the house though, haha. For 1, don’t know what it looks like inside and whether it’s worthy yet. For 2, don’t know If we’ll be able to pull it off. I have lots of plans though If we do end up with it though! Wanna plant some nice flowers outside and buy all kinds of new stuff for the inside. New bed, new desk, new couch!!!! EE, I just want this so bad! I COULD HAVE A WORKING SINK TO WASH MY DISHES IN!!!!!!! Instead of using the STUPID BATHROOM SINK!
Well, here’s to hoping. I just can’t wait to see what the house looks like on the INSIDE!!!!
It’s already after 2:30pm, so I guess I’m gonna post this and get to cleaning. Need to go do the dishes (in the lovely bathroom sink!) then clean the kitchen then the animal cages and the living room.
I’ll let you guys know what happens with the house! I won’t hold my hopes up too high though.
Laterrrrr loves!
