Weekend Update

Finally we are warming up out here. Yesterday was the first day that our high was above freezing. It was beautiful outside. I never thought I would be so happy for 40 degrees outside. But because it was nice everywhere was busy. Gram and I go grocery shopping on saturdays because during the week we work and I have homework. Well yesterday Wally World looked like Mall Of Georgia around Christmas. It was impossible to fnd a spot to park. And inside was even worse. A few weeks ago I ordered a desk on wallys website with site to store shipping and on wednesday I got a text saying my desk was ready for pick-up. So yesterday while we were there I went to find my desk. I gave the guy my name and he went to the back to get my item. When he came out he was pushing a cart with a vaccum in it. Uh so not even close to what I ordered. I had to bring up the email saying what I was picking up to show that the vaccum wasn't mine. Now I am supposed to wait a few days for the store to figure out what happened. So not happy.
The desk I ordered.

The item they tried to give me.

Do these look like something thats easily confused?

Today has been great though. I woke up and cleaned the house and did laundry. Now I'm working on my english paper. Tonight my aunt is coming over for dinner. I am making steaks and artichokes and potatoes. And attempting to make a hollandese sauce for the artichokes, we will see how that works out.

Happy Sunday

97%

Thats what I got on my first english paper of the semester. Last week my Annotated Bibliography was turned in as my first paper. Today while I was sitting in the library, my instructor emailed me back my paper with a the comment Very Nice Job and 97%. I practically danced out of the library. Of course I put it on Facebook and texted my parents, Tyler and Rissa. Now hopefully the actual paper will be just as good in a few weeks.

Now this week has been a bad one. I caught a stomach bug and was sick sunday night through wednesday. For me thats the worst kind of illness because I love to eat. And I learned there is like nothing on during the day on tv. For the last year I have worked a 8-5 job so I never watched tv until after dinner. The last 3 days showed me I'm only missing Peoples Court and old episodes of The Real Housewives. Small confession, I have a problem with trashy reality shows. I will sit down and watch any of the Real Housewives or Teen Moms. Or anything on Food Network or HGTV. But dont hate, I live in a small town in the middle of nowhere that is currently under 2 feet of snow. There is nothing to do besides hang out in my warm house with my dogs.

Tyler is doing well also. He is currently working 2 jobs and getting excited about me visiting in March. I cannot wait to be back in a place where the temp is over freezing.

Ok well I'm off to watch me some Million Dollar Listing, oh how I love Bravos shows lately.
