He is Risen!


...He is risen, indeed :)


Today was a good day. Good church service, good time with family, good food...love it.

Tomorrow...tomorrow is not going to be such a good day. Josh's unemployment hearing is in the morning, and then Aunt Audrey's visitation is at 1 and the funeral is at 2.

I'm kind of nervous for the hearing. And I don't like that. We've just been waiting for this for so long...it will be nice to finally be done with it. This is it. No matter what the turn out is, there's not really much else we can do. So hopefully it ends well! We shall see. Say a prayer for us if you would!

I don't think it really has hit me yet that Aunt Audrey is gone, because I haven't seen her in so long. The last time I saw her was before she was put into the nursing home, and she was still mostly herself. So that will be hard. But at least she is in a better place and she's with all her critters! She was always talking about her little critters... :)

I am watching Undercover Boss. As much as I thought I wouldn't like this show, I'm really quite into it. Tonight it's the head of RotoRooter. It's quite interesting.

Yesterday was fabulous. I had to work in the morning, which that wasn't so fabulous but it wasn't too bad. We were really slow, which after Friday...was appreciated!!

I did have one nasty encounter with an angry member, who called me a 'lying b****' (and every other word under the sun!) because she is crazy and didn't put as much money in the tube as she thought, and accused me of stealing her money. Um okay, first of all...I am not that kind of person. I know you don't know that because you don't give anyone the benefit of the doubt because you are old and always too crabby to be kind. Second of all, there are cameras on me...there's no way I would get away with anything, even if I tried. So thanks for automatically assuming I'm a horrible person, but I'm not. She made me so mad, I was seriously shaking. Once she finally sent more money in (which, she folded a $100 bill into as small of a square as possible and then jammed it in the crevice of the tube with a pen, so I didn't even know it was in there), I was shaking so much I could hardly type to make out the check she needed. Ugh I really do not like people like that.

I just don't understand how people get so mad like that and feel like it's okay to yell and scream and make a scene. If I was in that situation, there is no way I would ever react like that! I guess I was just raised much better than she was so I know that is completely inappropriate, and wouldn't dream of making anyone feel as crappy as she made me feel. Not cool, crazy lady.

In the afternoon I went down to Kohl's with Kim and her little one, Matthew, because our boss's sister works for Kohl's, and she gets friends and family coupons every once in awhile that she shares with us! So we got an extra 15% off the sales they were already having, plus no sales tax. I bought 3 new pairs of jeans, and according to my receipt, I saved $57!! So I am pretty excited about that!

After that I went home and took a nap, and then went to Wal-Mart to pick up my prescription. On the way out I almost had a heart attack. There was a slightly older lady in front of me, pushing a cart with a baby in a carseat in it, propped up on the top part. She accidentally went over the curb and almost lost the carseat!! I was so scared! She caught it at the last second and everything was fine...but holy cow...I was pretty scared there for a minute!

Nikki and I met up last night to go see 'The Last Song'. I was sort of disappointed, to be honest. The book was great. And the movie was great...if it didn't have Miley Cyrus as the starring role. She was just so distracting, because of how bad of an actress she is. She had some okay parts, but really...she's not good as a serious role. She's more suited for Hannah Montana. She just has a lot of quirks I guess, that really distract you from what she's saying. Things like her buck tooth, and how her mouth is always hanging open...Aside from her, great movie. The dad and the brother were my favorites, because they were just hilarious and the little boy was so stinkin cute!! Plus, the kid who plays Miley's boy toy is absolutely adorable. Way too good looking for her. I feel like whenever they kissed her tooth probably got in the way. Overall, a good movie. I cried, which I knew I would...but the book is still way better, so please...read the book first!! And then rent it so you can watch it and cry in your own home.

Plus there was a couple in front of us who felt the need to talk during the whole movie, and laugh and giggle and I think there was some kissing going on. And of course, the girl had the most annoying high pitch whiny voice ever. I accidentally kicked the arm rest and hit the girl in the head! Oops. But they shut up for a few minutes, so that was nice.

Well I should probably get to bed...gotta be up bright and early tomorrow morning! I get to skip work all day, but sadly, I have to wake up earlier than normal, and go to a funeral! Oh well.

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter and got to spend some quality time with family and friends :) But most of all, I hope you remember the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus paid on the cross so that we can live freely!

  1. I was kinda dissapointed in the movie, not gonna lie. I am a Miley Fan, but I didn't really like her all that much in Last Song. I don't think she was terrible, but I was just focused on how good the book was to really focus on the movie. I hate how they leave so many good details out of movies. But whatever... I definitley kept you guys in my mind today and I hope it went well for you. As well as a hearing and funeral can go at least. You are strong and I know you can do it <3
    And to put a little smile on your face, Aaron and Jess had McKenna today and she is SO stinkin cute :-)
