One Tree Hill, Raisinettes and a sleeping 3 year old.

Technically, I'm on vacation, from work that is, but I am actually spending the week with the three kids that I have been babysitting for the passed 8 years. The two oldest are pretty independant, so I'm just "hanging out" with them, but Miss Macaylah is 3 and so far we're having a good time. Right now, I'm lounging in bed watching One Tree Hill Season #5 while Macaylah sleeps next to my feet laying the opposite direction.

Tonight we're having the kids come over to our apartment to have a pizza and Rock Band night. It will be nice to see my husband and kittens. I stopped at home to feed them yesterday (the kittens, not the husband) and just wanted to cuddle Gus like crazy :)

Grad School started yesterday - Oh, yeah, I never got to that post, did I? I applied for EMU's Educational Psychology Master's Program. I got into the grad school three weeks ago and found out on Friday that I got into the program as well, SO EXCITED!! I'm a little nervous about how much reading is involved, since it's only a 6 week course, but I think I'll be alright...well, here's hoping.

ECLIPSE COMES OUT TONIGHT!!! I will not be going to the midnight showing - which sounds like fun, but I will be taking the kids (minus the little one) to see it tomorrow night. SO excited about this too, I love the book series, and like to see them alive on the screen but I am not the biggest fan of Kristen Stewart, who was on Regis and Kelly this morning and was totally rude and bitchy. Ugh. I can't stand her. But, alas, I will be running over 12 year olds tomorrow evening if they come between me and the movie theater.

Off to enjoy the rest of my day.
Catch you on the flip side :)

Hey Bloggers! Aparently you can blog via text message. I wonder how much info I can squeeze into 160 characters, which is all my BB will allow... We shall see.

Matrimony :)

So, I lied, I didn't come back in a couple days... it's been, what? a week?

I figured since I was late with updating you on my exciting (ha!) life, I would reward you with some wedding pictures. I won't do too many at once, but instead give some teasers. It was a great day, everything went incredibly well and we had a great time!

58 days, 21 hours, 36 minutes and 19 seconds

That's how long it's been since my last post. Life has been a little crazy since then, so I figure the best way to get back into it and update you the past 58 days, 21 hours, 36 minutes and 19 seconds is to make a list of things that have happened and make my way through it.

1. We got MARRIED!!!

2. Our Honeymoon

3. Meet Gus Gus!

4. Work Drama

5. The Chopping of the Tresses

6. Relay for Life

7. Upcoming Mackinaw Trip :)

8. Grad School, Here I Come!

 A lot of stuff has changed and a lot of things are the same... which really isn't very revealing is it? It would make the most sense to start with #1 and tell you all about our special day, but I won't get the CD with the pictures on it for a couple days, so until I can fully amaze you, I will skip straight to #3. GUS GUS!! He is our new kitten. We adopted him the week after we got back from our honeymoon. He is absolutely adorable but is completely insane as well.  

 

Kitty (Justin's family cat that also lives with us, she's 16 years old and pretty sick) is SLOWLY getting used to him being here, but she definitely doesn't like playing with him. She doesn't like doing much of anything so I'm not surprised that she has issues with him. In hindsight, we probably should have waited to adopt Gus, so that Kitty wasn't stressed during her last couple of months, but we had good intentions, we thought he would help her feel more youthful and have fun... not so much.  

He's tearing our apartment up, knocking stuff over and pulling up some carpeting, but other than that he's pretty sweet. He's a cuddler too, when he wants to be... Once he get's neutered and mellows a little bit, he'll be the perfect "First Baby" :)

That's about it for now. I will be back in the next couple days to upload some pictures and give you some stories. I'm glad to be back and am slowly getting back into the groove of life, but it's quite a shock to be off of work for 2 1/2 weeks and then being thrown back into a life of work, cooking, money, bills, traffic, etc. Urgh. Maybe the weekend in Mackinaw will mellow me out too. Maybe Gus and I both need to mellow :) Happy Blogging - I'll type at 'cha soon!
