Here I am!

I'm watching American Idol and just love BLAKE!!! He's the blond bebopper. The song he sang last week and his performance tonight were both just great! I just had to pass that along. :-)

So my mom bought me the "Secret" DVD that has become so popular. Oprah had a show about it and that's where she saw it. It's the secret to getting what you want in life. I started watching it earlier, but fell asleep. (I had to teach today as my intern was out and I was exhausted!! Plus I haven't been feeling the greatest for a few days-allergies.) Don't tell her that. I'll try to watch it again tomorrow. I do remember some of it-that I need to emit the energy of what I want and then I'll get it...maybe I can emit the "I want my neighbors to move!!!!!" energy and then they'll do it!!!! One can wish right?!

I'm doing homework tonight and it's a little tough, so I had to take a break since AI is on and Blake did so good!

Saturday I went scrapbooking...hung out with Robin, and Kip and the rest of the gang. Didn't get too much work done. Forgot some pictures at home that I wanted to scrap. But I did start on my cruise pictures from last year. Looking forward to this year's cruise in May!!!
Sunday, Phil and I went to the beach...we froze our butts off! We met some other friends out there and we ended up going inside since it was sooo windy! It was still fun.

So, back to AI and homework...Are you watching? Who do you like? Oh and I like the shaved head guy named Phil too. He's got a great name and I am ooooohhhhh soooooo attracted to bald men!!!!!!! It's so sexy!!!! Ooh and he sings good too! Ok take care all!

It's been a while!

I know!! I've just been busy.
The house sold. :-(
We've decided to wait a little while until we look into buying a house again, need to get some money saved.
School is same old, same old. I have an intern so I haven't been teaching. Kinda miss the kids! I am still in the room, but let her do everything. She's doing fine. Monday we have an early release day so in the afternoon I am going to work on report cards. FUN!! (not really!) But I have to remember that this is their first report card and this is what the parents look forward to.
I watched the Daytona 500 today-I know many of you are thinking-"Amy-watch a Nascar race." Yes and I only fell asleep for a little bit of it. It got exciting there at the end.

So, I'm cooking a chicken in the crock pot overnight for dinner tomorrow-no Lisa-not the chicken from the shower-that will come soon though. For the rest of you-I'll explain that chicken when I decide to make it.
So, that's really it. I think I'll be scrapping on Saturday...looking forward to that!
Have a good week!

Sunday evening

Peanut is already asleep in my lap and I should be doing homework but instead I'm watching TV-Extreme Home Makeover and anxiously awaiting Desperate Housewives!
House update:Phil and I are going forward with the process and if we don't get that house-which chances are probably not-we are going to start looking for a house. Tonight the stomping has been loud!

So this week is Valentine's Day and I bought my sweetie a gift card to Bass Pro Shop. Since I was in Orlando today for my friend Heather's shower brunch-it was very nice Lisa-I told him to tell me something he wanted but his all day fishing on Saturday was exhausting and he was out before 8:30pm, so a gift card it is! I'm also going to go to this really yummy Chocolate shop downtown and pick up some treats.
Ok-time to work on my homework.

Yes- Jules you will be invited and you too Robin!
And no he didn't catch any fish-so we had cheeseburgers instead.

Fun night!

We had sooo many laughs last night! Kip took some pics but don't think she'll put them on her blog...I'll try to get her to send them to me and I'll post them on here. We laughed and all got a little closer to each other. A few of us tried this cream that you put on your uhum and it enhances everything...all I can say is yep! Then we all got to play with the toys-not that way-just touch and see what makes it do it's stuff...no we didn't take it out of the room and yes we were fully clothed. Funny how soo many women are purchasing these things. I think men just don't understand that they just aren't getting the job done. Anyway, it was fun, we had straws and a cake to go along with the theme. It was definately "R" rated!

So I called and left a message with my aunt and still haven't heard from her...I have 2 theories-either they closed and she doesn't want to tell me, or (this is really what I think)-that they didn't close, but they are going to take the other offer.

I have a busy day today! I need to go to Tampa and buy my reader for my class and then get to work on my homework. Then I'll do some laundry, and clean up the house...Oh and I might have another card making job coming. A girl I work with is getting married this fall and I mentioned to her that I make invites, so I need to figure out pricing for her and she was going to talk to her fiance this weekend and get back to me...so keep your fingers crossed that I'm hired and that I price it good enough for me to make a decent profit and for her to buy them!

Phil is fishing today, so we may have some yummy fresh fish for dinner tonight! Have a great Saturday!

The Latest

So now the closing is today by 5pm. My aunt said that if it doesn't close by the end of the day today, then they are open for offers. So, part of me is hoping it doesn't close-for obvious reasons. But the other part of me is stressing big time-gotta sell the condo, gotta get financing, gotta make sure I have money to close, gotta, gotta, gotta!! AGH!!! I know it will all work out whatever way God has planned for us. So if we don't get this house, that just means we can take out time to sell, and look and get financing. I don't doubt that we will be approved for financing, just would like to sell this place and get some kind of money out of it! My aunt and uncle wouldn't have extended the closing if it weren't for the fact that they need it for another project they have-contractors to pay, etc...

Tonight I have somewhere fun to go! I'll be going to an adult toy and accessory party! Hehehe!!! I've never been and I'm sure I'll be blushing and embarrassed but laughing too! Will tell you all about it tomorrow or when ever I blog again!
Tomorrow I will be doing homework and Sunday I have a bridal brunch to go to in Orlando.

Well...

Here I sit and can still hear them above me. We had a board meeting on Wednesday and the prez suggested that we form a committee to see what the sounds are and if they are bad or not. If they are bad, then we will look into amending the bylaws, if it's unbearable, then they will have to remove them. I don't think it's fair to ammend the bylaws because someone "lost them and didn't know they couldn't" Oh and he claims that I never told him about the carpet....ARE YOU FU***** KIDDING ME!!!!???? Oh and he says the prez told him that he could put them down-the prez says he never had a conversation about that with him...Anyway, I haven't spoken to anyone here since Weds. and don't look forward to the listening session this Weds...who's to say that the noises they produce on Weds are the same noises that they produce on a normal everyday basis? And how valid is this going to be? Oh and the other people at the meeting claim they hear the person above them and they have carpet...I told them that if they think they can hear them now-just wait until they are allowed to put other flooring in and then see how much they can hear them then! I don't think these people are man enough to stick to our own rules...well they are all gay men so that pretty much explains it! They just want us all to live peacefully...well we would have had they followed the rules!!!

So because of this drama in my life, I've decided that I think I don't want to live in a condo anymore...I have been driving around the neighborhoods and have seen some really cute places and happened to talk to my aunt yesterday and she told me about a house that they own that they have for sale. So I go by and look at it and OMG! It is sooo cute and for a REALLY good price in the area it's in...2/1, huge fenced backyard, hardwood floors, new tile in kitchen, washer, dryer, garage, new blinds-dishwasher-fans, etc...just precious! So I call her back and tell ask her how much is it and she tells me and then says they were supposed to close on Friday for it, but the guys' financing didn't go through, but it could go through on Mon. Well, I take Phil by and he loves it too...I called her back today and said if he can't come up with financing, hold it for me and we will start the processing for my house to sell and for me to get financing...My mom's not too happy because she wants me to have a ring before we do anything like that. I agree and have told Phil that I don't have a commitment yet from him and I'll continue to drop hints to him about it...
But that house may not go through since the guy can come back on Monday and have financing but I am still going to go through the paperwork to see what I can get so if we see another house I'll be ready...
Phil is ready to get the truck loaded up and move in tomorrow, but I keep telling him that it's not that simple...the process is long and I can't do anything unless this place sells and can use the money as a down payment. So...that's the latest. I'll keep you posted! I'm not holding my breath, but it'd be nice to move onward.
So with that-enjoy the superbowl! I don't care who wins...just like the comercials, and the food at the party!
