Weekly Update...

Oh, Thursday. This week is flying by, and I don't need it to. I have to take my Praxis at 7:30 Saturday morning...and I'm scared to death. Everybody tells me not to worry, but I can't help but have it in the back of my mind. buhhhhhh.


This week has been weird. I had to work Monday night, so that threw off my usual sleep schedule as to where I stay. I had lunch with Zach on Monday before I had to work, and then stayed at home that night....so I swapped Tuesday out and stayed with him :)
I've been really emotional this week, too. Sometimes I hate being a woman. ugh. Hopefully once all this stress goes away I'll be back to normal. My sleep schedule will go back to normal next week, even though I have to work Friday night. I'm not closing so I should get out pretty early. 


We went to the mall last night--I had to have a new pair of shoes for work since SOMEBODY'S dog chewed mine up...i'm not calling anybody out though. hehe. It was a successful trip, I got new shoes and two new bras. I love spending time with Zach. He brings out the best in me and makes me smile constantly. Life is good.


Not really much to say...and I need to be paying attention in class, I have a test next week. We'll see how that goes.

Busy Busy Bee!

It's been over a week since i've updated...wow. Life has been busy this week! Last weekend I worked lunch on Saturday and Sunday, and we got seriously busy since it was the first weekend of college football. I was dead on my feet by the time I came back to Zach's every night! Saturday night we went to Nan's for a little cookout...what should have taken us 40 minutes took almost 2 hours because of a wreck in Wake Forest...and I HATE traffic. ugh. 


Monday was our two monthiversary! Time is flying by. We went out to lunch in Raleigh and spent some time together...unfortunately I had to work that night, but it was nice to get some time to sleep in on Monday morning even though I didn't get a single day off. I'm gonna have a nice paycheck come Friday. :)


School is crazy hectic...I'm trying to keep up with both of my on-campus classes as well as my three online classes. It's tough discipling yourself to do online classwork! I like my anthropology class because it forces me to read--I have to turn in an electronic copy of my notes every week. I can't believe there's less than 100 days until graduation at this point. I'm so excited! I have everything ready to turn in for my Wake County application...soon enough I'll be able to contact principals about jobs!!!!  :)


We went out for Nanner's 30th tonight--there were 22 of us in our party, and all of the crazy barn people get together, we tend to get pretty loud. It was a blast. I love being home and being able to go out with my friends without feeling guilty! It's the first time all of our little family has been together in a while...probably since Districts in July! 


Now i'm at Zach's, he's watching NC State football now...blegh. Carolina got the week off. It's okay though, I got to have coffee for the first time all week today. I've been trying to cut down on my intake...it's not healthy for me AT all AND it's expensive. Usually I have it at least 3 times a week but this week I didn't have it at ALL until today! I'm pretty proud of myself. It seems like there's been a Starbucks EVERYWHERE we've been this weekend...there was one right beside PF Chang's at Crabtree where we first tried to go to dinner last night, there was one in the shopping center where we finally did go to dinner, and then there was one right beside Red Robin in Brier Creek when we went out tonight! I couldn't resist anymore, it was calling my name. I've got my frappuccino and I'm pretty pleased. This football game is silly. I'd much rather be watching my boys in blue. I think i'm gonna head to bed pretty soon. Toodles!

Day 10

Day 10: A Photo of You Taken Over 10 Years Ago
Sorry, folks. Nothing to produce here...technology wasn't thriving 10 years ago, when I was the ripe age of 12. I can tell you I was probably in 7th grade with two best friends by the name of Kellie and Ashley. Oh, to be 12 again. 
------------------------------------
The last few days have just been full of schoolwork...my new computer got here on Wednesday, which REALLY excited me. I'm in love. I've managed to get everything done for school by Friday of every week, even though I have things that aren't due until Sunday. I like just being able to spend my time in Cary with Zach on the weekends without having to do any work. This weekend is Labor day, and mostly everyone has a long weekend. However, the restaurant business doesn't take time off...so i'll be working  Saturday, Sunday, AND Monday. I'm not going to complain, because it's work and I've got bills to pay! I actually got my first paycheck today and frankly, I was quite excited. It was wonderful. Tonight Zach and I grocery shopped and cooked dinner together (we're both learning how to do more in the kitchen), and now we're just relaxing. It's just about bedtime so I'll stop here. I have to work lunch tomorrow, which means getting up at a decent hour. I hope everyone has a wonderful long weekend! :)
