March 29th, 2007

Six years ago my life was change on this very day. The path I thought I was going to take was changed. I lost my special friend, Derek McGee. 

Today is a day of memory for him!

Today is also his sister birthday, Brittany!

Today is also his nephew birthday, Daniel!

Today is a reminder that when someone dies, someone somewhere life is starting anew!

Looking back I am grateful for all that went through with his death. It's changed who I am.

I know that families can be together forever.

Happy Birthday Brittany M

Today is my sister, Brittany M's birthday and her nephews Daniel(5) birthday! Happy birthday guys!

3rd Anniversary

Today marked our 3rd wedding anniversary. John had school and I had work during the day. That night we went to the Rainforest Cafe. We've gone to the Rainforest since our honeymoon. This time however was a very poor experience. They took us to our table and then we waited and waited and waited for someone to come by and acknowledge us and start taking our order. No one came by. 20 mins later the floater walked by, the one who sits people at the table and saw that  we didn't have drinks(like soda/water). She asked us if we had been served, I said no. And she said let me take your drinks and I will get my manger. I didn't even have to ask for the manger. We told the manger what happened. She got us a free apperizar and told us that there was a new waiter and that are seats that we were just to be seated in often seem hidden. After much long wait we finally got our food and left. We desided not to get dessert because it took so long to get our food. Will I go back? yes.. just hope that I won't get forgotten again...

A side from that it was a good day.

Marching in to March

Hard to believe that it is March already! Next week will be John and I 3rd wedding anniversy! Hard to believe we have been married for 3 years already with our first child on the way! 

February was good. I went to Disney World with my parents and my sister. I keep meaning to post picture of the trip I will get around to doing that at some point.

I start my new job title next week at the bank. We have been in training for the last three weeks to get us ready for what is to come. I will now be work 40 hours a week! New schedule 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and yes I still will be working at CFA. I will be a very busy working women. I will miss my Tuesdays were I was off all morning and got to sleep in. Sleeping in guess that something that won't happen for a long time now. Plus side is I will have normal hours. I have never had normal working hours really in my life. So it will be a change to actually be home when the sun is still up!

Ode to my life-Jasmine Style

So a couple years ago Jasmine came up with a great story at writers circle and for the longest time I have had it recorded to my cell phone. Any time I change phones I just blue toothed over to my new phone.  Because it's such an awesome story I wanted to share it here!  

Ode to My Life- By Jasmine Bolen (recorded someone between 2007-2009)

 When I was little I use to wish that I was a pumpkin  until i realized  they made pumpkin pie out of pumpkin  Then I wanted to be a chihuahua; until I realized they could not speak Spanish  Then I wanted to be a mermaid; until I had the rationalization that I am terrified of sharks.  Then I wanted to be a princess; until someone told me they had no diplomatic power. So I decide to me myself and it still kind'a sucks!
