Tick tock...whats up?

Happy Spring!!
I must confess I really want to blog more, but for some reason I can't sign on at my apartment.
So the biggest question I get is hows it living by yourself...I love it!! I haven't gotten lonely or anything yet..lol...Im so busy I don't have time to get lonely. I do have to say that I am still learning to make sure I shut and lock my door...OR not to lock both sets of keys in the house. I did that this past Friday. I was really thankful I opened my windows so all I had to do was bust a screen and climb in. I called my mom and she said she has failed me in the "locking your house because its safe" area...hahaha...we have never done it. Even when we lived in Oneida. I am getting better, but I had to make a conscience effort to teach myself.
Let's see what else....My cat is in heat and is driving me crazy!! I need to get her fixed real soon...
I still play volleyball on Fridays for fun.
I started doing a companionship program with a young lady and we have started attending a Zumba class.(Latin Dancing/cardio workout) It is awesome!! We do that at the YMCA. We also volunteer at a Greenhouse and our local SPCA. It is fun and I am really enjoying it. I do that twice a week.
Hmmmm.....let see what else....I still work at the JD George and I am really enjoying it! Even with all the politics of it...Oh I know..I am seriously contemplating going to school this fall for Culinary Arts Managment.Will see...
Other then that..I am enjoying the nice weather and of course all my favorite flowers!!!! I am expecting one more snow storm...so will see what comes are way!!! : )

A Good Excuse....

Well, considering I am at the Library updating my blog...that should tell you something...Yes, the Internet at home still works. I have moved out...(AND ALL THE WORLD GASPS!!!) I have moved to a cute apartment 3 doors down from where I used to live. Kind of funny that I moved back to Oneida. We had a dear friend who was looking for someone to take care of this place. Considering that the lady that lived there died...creepy right??! Not really...So I now have a 1 bedroom apartment on Stone St. in Oneida. I am pretty excited and am slowly getting things unpacked! Its like Christmas all over again! It's lots of fun. : )
Oh I also realize I turned another year older since the last time I blogged. I am now 26. I know it doesn't seem that old but as the nurse at school informed me,"You are no longer in your mid-twenties. You my friend are in your late twenties." Way to cheer someone up! I don't mind; it was actually quite funny.
So that is all the exciting news I have for now. I will try to go home and upload some pictures for you...maybe...hahahha

listen to this!!

Our Christmas...

Our Christmas at home was different this year; as it is every year. As you will see by the pictures. We opened our family gifts before Ted,Angelie, Grandma Colleen, A.Kellie, U.Ed, and Bob came over.
Then when Ted, Angelie, and Bob came over they opened their gifts….It was a good time…here are the pictures!
Morning shot! This is what I look like when I jump out of bed…
