She fell asleep!

So I have many Pictures I need to post. Brandon got a new pet! You will have to wait to see what it is, it't not a dog or cat so stay tunned for that.

Also, since Angela left me and got a job at ETMC I have been working by myself on Saturdays and my boss Deborah has been coming in on Sundays 6pm to 2am (which still leaves me alone from 2am to 6am). These past two weeks have been oddly slow. My boss actually fell asleep from 11pm to 2am when she left! I was amused! I really wanted to take a picture to share but I was afraid the flash would wake her. She did however tell me (since I am looking for a full-time job) that as long as I stayed until christmas she would put in a good reference for me and that she knows someone that she'd refer me to. Today she called and they aren't hiring yet because they are on a "freeze" but she told me to go ahead and email him and send him a resume to get a pre-interview. It is a full-time monday through friday job 9-5 with an hour lunch. I am looking for full-time because once I turn 24 in June I will no longer be on my parents insurance so i'm starting now too look.

I have been thinking about not going to school in the spring and paying off the rest of my bills so that in the summer or the fall when I start back I can go full force with school to get done and not worry about money. I think it sounds like a pretty good idea myself.

We will see though. About a week and a half ago I took mom and myself to get a manicure and pedicure. I pretty much had to drag her in there with me and force her to get one and now she loves it! Those pictures are soon to come as well. I can't wait for next week! Thanksgiving! My entire family will be down, and even just my immediate family haven't all been together for over a year so I am excited... and I'll be off all week and the weekend =) I hope I can get alot of pictures of all of us! (if dad coroperates). We will be going to the movies, going bowling, My sister will turn 25!!! Wow we are getting old! I think thats it for now but lots of pictures to come and what I am thankful for!

Friday Night, Game Night

After dinner last Friday night Brandon and his girlfriend Lauren decided we should all go bowling. So me and mom loaded up with them and went. I haven't been since probably high school (about 5 years) and who knows when my mom last bowled. So we get there and there is a 45 minute wait! at a bowling alley! so we decided to wait and play some gamesthey had. Here is a few pictures...

I was about ready to leave and then they called our number!Brandon asked if we needed to put the bumpers up for mom, she said "Do you just think I am really getting old?" and then BAM!!! my mom just about kicked his butt getting spares until the last bowl brandon got 2 strikes which made him win. Lauren Bowling

Me bowling! There isn't many pictures of us bowling because brandon was looking through my pictures while we were waiting and my battery died. Oh family game nights! =)

Last day of work...

ok well its not my last day of work but my partn er in crime, Angela put her two weeks in and her last day was wednesday. I am back at work until 6am and am all alone. It was fun the past year and a half of working the crazy 12 hour shifts on saturday and sunday with her, we have made many little memories, (std system is down, burnt popcorn code 1!) I wish her the best of luck at ETMC and maybe someday soon I can switch out of this department too!

By the way she had surgery days before this pick on her gums so thats why she can't smile very big here. Get Well Soon!

mmm mmmm chocolate!

As my mom and I get done with lunch and a movie, I try to relax before I go in for work my 12 hour shift (really 13 with the time change). I am flipping through the channels and run upon the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders show on CMT. After watching a episode of that while im eating my HUGE symphony chocolate bar I decide I better get up and go get my but in shape. I just ran 2 days ago so I am still kinda sore from that, but I got up anyways and went running. On the show they have the Power Squad where they do 2 minutes of situps, 2 minutes of pushups and a 2 mile run. (my new goal) so I decided I would try to time myself and see how far off I am. I have asthema and it was not a very pretty site. I ran the 2 miles in 18 minutes and couldn't even get through 15 pushups! I've got alot of work to do! I know I am skinny but I am just trying to get toned and in shape. By the time I got done running I was so out of breath that I just fell down and this was what I saw...

Just one single cloud in the sky. I listen to christian music while I run; its inspiring to me, and the sky was so clear I wanted to stay lying on the ground for a while, it was so peaceful! Hopefully in 2 more days I can run again and in a month i'll get my time down.

Dinner

mom, dad, and papa jim came back today and I got a quick picture with papa jim before we left.

Happy Halloween!

Will let everyone in the restaurant dress up for halloween. He was the "punisher" and I had a baseball jersey on, just something small to dress up as. Not sure whats in store for tonight but more pics to come!

Yay! I got my camera!

So I got my camera charger in yesterday and I cant be more excited. Will not so much.... My camera has a bright red light then about 6 flashes, so I blind everyone with it.

Will and I hanging out last night.

The fire dept finally called me today and the shirts were in!!! After selling out 3 times in a week, I finally got my tshirt to help fight breast cancer! Here are a few pics.

The front...

The back of the T-shirt.

Ace of tests!

So I went in this morning to take another clericle test for a job on 4 Dawson in the hospital and as she was explaining it to me I realized I had already taken this test! I told her and she found it in her archives and I had Aced it! She printed off the scores and gave them to the recruiter, and all I have to do now is wait for a call.
I went to the fire department this morning and they still haven't gotten any more shirts in, they told me to try back this after noon or tomorrow. I am working this afternoon so I am hoping they will still have a small shirt tomorrow morning. =) I had another talk with my boss and she said she will try to get me off on thanksgiving, so thats exciting! I have found my classes to register for on monday, but i'm hoping that I figure out what job I'll have by then so I dont sign up for morning classes and end up getting hired for a morning job then have to try to switch my schedule around. Mom and dad made it through the night at the haunted hotel, that Uncle Kevin and Tyler set up! Suprisingly mom slept through the whole night and dad didn't sleep well at all.
