A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though
the weather that morning was questionable and clouds
were forming, she made her daily trek to the
elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the
winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning.

The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her
daughter would be frightened as she walked home from
school and she herself feared that the electrical
storm might harm her child. Following the roar of
thunder, lightning, like a flaming sword, would cut
through the sky. Full of concern, the mother quickly
got into her car and drove along the route to her
child's school. As she did so, she saw her little girl
walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the
child would stop, look up and smile. Another and
another were to follow quickly and with each the
little girl would look at the streak of light and smile.

When the mother's car drew up beside the child she
lowered the window and called to her, "What are you
doing? Why do you keep stopping?" The child answered,
"I am trying to look pretty. God keeps taking my picture."

May God bless you today as you face the storms that
come your way.

Yeah. I know it's been a while, but there's not much I can do about that.

The wedding this past weekend went okay. I feel sorry for Ty and Suzy, though. I don't think it went as well as they wanted it to (or should have been). But it was a nice little vacation in Jacksonville. It was nice to just get away for a few days.

We went to Dave & Buster's Friday night for the rehearsal dinner. It's was a hoppin' place. First time I'd ever been there. Everyone did this photo booth where you can "make babies." It takes your picture and your significant other's and generates a baby for you. Mine and Kyle's turned out cute. LOL....out of everyone's, we won the contest for cutest baby!! LOL.

Saturday was the wedding. It was at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. The church was absolutely beautiful!!! The reception was across the street. We had so much fun. I don't think I've ever danced so much in my entire life. That night, all of Kyle's siblings and significant other's (minus Ty and Suzy)and I went out to eat. We had a good time sitting around and talking.

Yesterday Kyle and I left as early as possible and came home. We were going to go to the beach, but decided against it....we were just ready to get home. We got here and went to Derrick's house and hung out there for a while. That night we went and saw 'Cars.' That was the COOLEST movie. I'm definitely buying it when it comes out on DVD.

And it was back to work this morning for me. sad.gif No fun. My vacation started and ended in a heartbeat.

Today's weather is crappy. Tropical Storm Alberto is moving through the Gulf. It's suppose to hit land either tonight or tomorrow ( I haven't heard the latest), but we're already getting wind and rain from it. Yucky, but we need it.

Sarah, I promise I will write you as soon as I get some extra free time!! Happy birthday to Josiah!! I love you guys!

I am convinced that I am making an A in medical terminology. The software/online class is so user friendly. I've gotten nothing but A's on the quizzes and tests. Bring on that midterm! I'm ready for it!!

As for other areas of my life, they are busy. Work is keeping me busy six days a week.

But I am thinking about leaving the liquor and wine store. Don't get me wrong. I love working with the people there, and I love the social aspect of it, but it's the manager I can't stand. Let alone I am treated like a kid at home, and even more so at work. How ridiculous is that? She talks to me like I'm freakin' five years old or something. Not my idea of a real job. So, I'm thinking about leaving, and apparently I'm not the only one. But Nick (from the pharmacy) is going out of the country next month, so I can probably pick up all of his hours. Oh yeah....I'd much rather get more hours making $8/hr. than the $6.75 I'm getting at the liquor store. And I was offered a GOOD paying babysitting job today by another pharmacist that I work with. Just something that I can keep in mind.

I'm trying to get everything in line for my application process for SFCC and DBCC. Everything is set for SFCC. I'm just waiting on a letter to tell me yes or no. As for DBCC, I'm waiting for one of my references to send a letter back, and I'm waiting for DBCC to get my core classes needed for the program transferred and into their system. They've gotten my college transcripts, but they just need to transfer the credits for the required core classes. I need to call them about that on Monday. They told me that I could go online and check it (kind of like eSantafe), but I guess they don't have me in the system, so I couldn't access it, therefore making me do things the old fashion way. What a bummer....LOL.

I'm trying to get Kyle to teach me to ride the motorcycle, but we just don't have the time. I want to at least know how to ride by October for Biketoberfest, but I don't know. Time is flying by so fast. He already wants an upgrade of his bike, and he said when he did that, I could just get the one he has now. Which that isn't bad. I love it. I'm a speed demon!

Went to the doctor the other day. Found out I have a cyst on my right breast. Talk about freaking out! I was scared. They scheduled me for an ultrasound and mammogram to make sure it wasn't cancerous or anything. It all turned out okay. It's just something that I have to keep an eye on, and if something changes, I have to let them know ASAP. "Welcome to womanhood" as the radiologist told me yesterday. Yeah....

Anywho. The world keeps on spinning and I have things to do. Toodles!

gatorjunki Good news!! Jun 17th, 2006 8:28:26 pm - Subscribe
Good evening, kids! happy.gif

Lots of good news...well, only two things, actually.

Kyle is officially a full-timer as of today. If he wants to continue on for management, he could be a manager in about a year and a half, or two.

The other good news is that I got my A.A. diploma in the mail today!! Wahoo!! At least I finally have something to show for the four years I've been sweating over school. It just makes me feel good to know that I've at least accomplished something after high school. wink.gif

I worked on my dad's present for Father's day. I just made a little scrapbook with different pictures of me over the years. My mom bought a picture frame that I decorated and put a picture of me and my dad in. I was probably about a year old in the picture. So cute.

Lady and the Tramp is such an awesome movie. I haven't watched it in forever. Classic movie...a good one, too.
