Well Tim finally bought him a car to restore ive been fighting it for years and finally said do whatever you want...im still not to happy about that we could have so put that money towards a vacation but i guess im supposed to put all the money in for those things cause the 2 vacations we have actually had I have paid for out of my account!  Im not saying im a great saver but OMG when is he going to learn!!?!?!?!?  Oh well so long as hes happy right?!??!  Well im gonna have to find me an expensive hobby then!  Other than shopping lol!  Why is it so hard for me to spend money yet so easy for him?!?!?  I guess i just want things in the future i know i have to save for and want to save for but he lives in the NOW which is not bad but at the same time if were ever gonna really try to buy bryans parents house when they move to florida he has got to quit buying all this expensive stuff!  My gosh i wont have a job before long and he just keeps on spending money!  Im activaly looking for a new job...i apply for jobs daily! Part of the stipulations to him buying this car are that we get a bigger house(hopefully bryans parents) and we work on starting to try for a baby next summer!  He will hold up to his end of the deal!  Im just in a down mood today and needed to vent...i feel a little better now...i have my yearly dr appt today which i always dread and am scared of since the one 2 years ago...high stress can make those things come back and man have i been under stress lately!  Worse than ever!  So im very nervous!  Plus they have to do such a thurough exam because of it... i will cramp for days...joys! Tims bday and my brothers graduation fall on the same day so ill have to take tim to dinner on the day after unless alvord graduations arent as long as they used to be but since class sizes have grown im sure it will be long...this is all pending my brother actually graduating...supposdly hes working harder and getting help so he can...i sure hope so!  Ok i really think ive vented enough so im out!

Sorry so sad...

So i just found out that my gpa has gone completly blind in his left eye. This is due to the plaque build up on his arteries from his heart problems. They cant do anything now as he has already gone blind and since he is in congestive heart failure not much they can do for his heart he just has to make sure to eat better as to not make it worse. They made him an appointment for his right eye and he didnt go to it. He said there is nothing they can do anyways...he is so stubborn and hard headed(and they wonder where i get it from...its the Petty side for sure). My grandparents practically raised me...i always said they would live forever(yes i know this isnt really possible but one can hope right?!?!?) I gotta start going to see them more!

Camping with dogs...bad idea!


So I had April 3-10th scheduled as vacation so tim and i could go to florida well due to lack of funds and the job situation being so iffy we decided not to go and just go camping for a long weekend. Sounds cheap and harmless right?!??! HA! Not so much! Had to work on the boat, had to work on the camper, $84 for 2 out of state fishing licenses(we went to lake murray in OK) and the expenses go on. Oh yeah 4 trips there and back 2 up 2 back since i cant pull anything and it was race weekend so there was traffic to fight. Ok so on the good side of things our camp site was beautiful! Well we took the dogs due to no dog sitter, funny how many people you help dog/house sit for to get no help in return! The first night all 4 of us froze our bootys off...Friday tim and i locked the dogs in the camper so we could go to walmart and get our fishing license we were gone about an hour welld driving back to the camp site we catch a glimpse of keeyle chasing us down the camp road! Wait a minute, didnt we lock her inside?!? OMG where is Gibs? Whew, hes still in the camper. Keeyle went for several swims which involved diving off the back of the boat many times! Heathen but a smart one...thank goodness she didnt get to far! So we get their leashes so we can go out on the boat and fish...no fish biting its to cold for that...then keeyle decides to jump out of the boat into the water with her leash tied to the inside of the boat...seriously!??! Get her leash of so she doesnt choke then tim and i are like how the heck are we gonna get her back in here without getting into this ice cold water...well we somehow managed it and tied her where she could NOT jimp back in she whinned of course...then we go back to the campsite get them tied up to trees with the chains we bought(another expense) and she barks and whines the whole time she is sitting right beside us! So at this point we have decided we are going home Saturday morning instead of sunday...we played some scrabble, cooked out, had a beer and went to bed got up and left the next morning...when we came back up for the camper we did some hiking and rock climbing and took some great pictures(will get those posted as soon as i can)...we have a night of camping left there that we plan to use this summer when we go with some friends and find a dog sitter somewhere!...
