ps

i'll be keepign this site jsut to look at all of your posts inconsistantly.

it's friday the 13th and there are a million black birds in our front yard and in the sky.

so here i am sitting at the computer after being awake since 6 and only getting >3 hours of sleep.  i had to work last night until 1am, which ended up being 2:30am, which means i didn't get home and in bed until after 3am. 6am came too soon and i not have lots of eerandsw to run today before nicole gets home at 3pm after which i will be heading straight over to jenny's hosue to watch her 3 month old little boy (which i am very excited about since i havent' been around a  new born since ava was little) until midnight.  i am thoroughly exausted, however,  i am "rolling in the dough" if you will, as child care is one thing that parents don't bargin shop for and a good, safe, trust worthy babysitter is, as my bank account presently shows, worth at least $15 an hour. $20 an hour on weekends.

ps. we had a blizzard yesterday.

I got a new camera... and it rocks. here's some pix of stuff that has happened over the last week or so...

This is Miss Ava being cute.

Ava in the outfit i got her for her birthday. She's so stylish!

My friend Johanna graduated from cosmotology school and I went to Ann Arbor to celebrate with her, her boyfriend and some of her other friends.

Jarod got a little tipsy and decided to give Johanna his shirt cuz she was cold. He was walking around with no shirt on, so I offered him my vest (i had a t-shirt on underneath it). he put on the vest, grabbed Johanna's purse and skipped down the alley to another bar...

where he and Johanna danced to one song and then we all left.

man, that was a fun night.

These are from Friday night when Erin and I went out to Poole's and then came back, went in the hot tub and hung out with Zeus and Hollywood.

Then on saturday night I hung out with my friend Matt from back home.

This is us at a party.

And here we are on our way to BW3's... YUM!

Matt and I decided to go there cuz the Michigan vs. Minnesota game was on and we wanted to watch our team Michigan win and carry on their undefeated season.

Anyways, that has been my past week. maybe I'll update more cuz I have a sweet camera now... but it's doubtful.

Travis is a nice guy.

things are good here. i have been rather bored with my life lately. i'm just not being challenged and i like to be constantly challenged in my life, in work, in my spiritual life and in my relationships. so i've decided to start classes at the local community college. after being pestered by aunts and uncles and close family friends about going back to school. i've finally decided to enroll. i've make the decision to go for Business- Marketing and Management Application. I think i'd be good at that. i like figuring ways to appeal to people and i think i'l pry go into advertising. and the sweet part about it is that i can totally keep my job as i take classes as work towards my degree. i'm excited about having a challenge in my life.

also. some more good news, things with travis and i have moved to being just friends.. things are going well with me and i'm opening a new chapter in my life. i'm not saying that he was holding me back, in fact, he encouraged me, all the time to do bigger and better things with my life.  i was holding myself back, by pouring all my time and energy into our relationship. which worked for a while, our relationship was great, it was jus the rest of my life that was suffering. and i don't want to be one of those girls that is completely obsessed with her boyfriend and you never see her because she's with him or doing something having to do with him all the time. i wanna be my own person, and thats what ii'm going to work on.

now, i'm looking forward to deepening my relationship with Christ and finding myself and who i want to be. I need to be complete in myself before i can start trying to form a partnership with someone else. i'm looking forward to what God will be doing in my life in the next year. this should be GOOD!
