Really really not having a good day. It hasn't felt like Christmas and it doesn't feel like New Years Eve. Where are the festivities Lawton? This overgrown town is a sorry excuse for a city. Its boring and blah during one of the most lively times of the year. And now tonight we get to sit at home and do freaking nothing! Hate is a stron word, but I really really don't like you or living here "city" of Lawton. You have no lights, no fire works nothing. You're grey and boring. If you where an actual city there'd be shit to do, but guess what! There's not a damn thing too do. This place freaking sucks. I miss Pell City, home, celebrating with friends and family instead of doing nothing here but watching football. I don't mind watching every now and then during the season but I really hate giving up New Years to watch a team that isn't doing so great get their ass whooped. Its gonna be one fucking boring new year. And I can already tell 2012 is gonna be grey and colorless as Lawton.

Every thing it Toxic

From Apple Juice to Teflon coated cooking pans. Every thing gives you cancer, poison you(or your pets), or destroys the ozone layer and adds to the green house effect, and global warming, the emissions from your car are melting the ice caps killing the polar bears, never mind that people poach them. and Good Lord some one save us we're all gonna die! I think we all need to be put in to bubbles and live like a "bubble boy". That way we save the planet, dont eat any meat, only organic plants we grow out in our little bubble gardens, and we never cut any trees down, have artificial trees to produce man made oxygen. We'll never need cares because only some of our little bubble worlds are connected, which reduces the chance for war because we're so cut off and we dont want to destroy the world any more right?
 
 I mean really now, after all that, is there any thing in this world that IS safe?

*sighs* really now can I take a step our sice me door, or cook with out committing a slow suicide?
I really have stopped watching the news, since they keep coming up with new ways i'm killing my self, my neighbors, or the world.

I'm going to go play with Tatl for a few and finish this later when I actually have a point and I'm not just ranting.

Its sooooo cold

Well we're spending the last few days at home camping with my folks up at Cheaha. And its windy. And its cold. And it kinda sucks even tho its fun to be out with the fam again. And did I mention its extremly windy and cold? And I'm dead tired as well. And I can pick up wifi but no signal on my phone. And, yes another and lol, AJs not here :( I miss my hubby and cuddle buddy. He's spending time with his folks today then meetinf us up here, my cousin Trey in tow. But I'm gonna hop up now before I fall asleep in the tent.

On our way

Its 2 24 and we are on our way to Alabama! Just left Ft Sill, hit the interstate fixing to go through some toll booths and then on to OkC! Ill keep this updated as we go :)

5:32 am, 615 miles to go
And then there's been 3 things of consturction, 2 five miles +/- some( this ones been over 5 miles and been like this since may). And skunks every other mile or so. Tatl's been good. Sleeping away in her pouch. I got worried she was getting to chilly. But now she's all cuddled up in her pouch with a fleece blanky in my lap. Aj keeps his fingers in he mouth a good bit. He says he's just running his tooth under the nail, but I think he's chewing them still. And its at mile 609 to go now. That state line doesn't look any closer on the gps. And its still dark. The suns not supposed to be up till 7:50 in oklahoma. This sucks driving in the dark. We re probably getting breakfast in Arkansas. And I'm already hungry. I'm gonna fix tatl some food when we stop. She had a light dinner. Not much at all so I know she's hungry.
More later.

6:36am
Just got to Arkansas. We re stopped over at the welcome center for a nap. Should only take 4 hours to cross Arkansas. So we re making good time :)

7:01am
back on the road again after a short rest. The sun is just now starting to brighten the sky. Thank God lol. Driving in the dark was not fun after a while. Still smelling the skunks tho. We've got 540 miles to go.

8:57 am
Fixing to pass Little Rock, Arkansas and we re half way home with 404 miles to go. Called nonie and maw and talked to for a bit. Ate a bite for breakfast but I'm still hungry lol.  And I'm getting a headach :( hopefully we can stop soon because I reeaaalllyyy gotta pee xD and I need to fix Tatl some food and put her up for a bit.
We just passed Little Rock! Now on to Memphis then Hayden the home! we should make alabama by about 2:30pm if we keep on like we're going.

9:45am

We almost got sideswiped by a big rig -_-

11:49 am 200 miles to go
Goodbye Memphis, hello Victoria, Mississippi.
We are now in you guessed it, Mississippi. We had a hard tim weeving our way through Memphis for a bit. Traffic was stop and go for a looooooong time. And nows no better. We re back to one lane traffic. Wooo hoo more! Aj estamates 40% of our trip has been one lane construction work and city traffic. Blech. Hoping to get some food soon.

12:26 pm
Stopped and got some food. We re still making good time :)
In amidst the evergreens you can see sploches of gold and red and orange. We're getting so close! I can't wait to see that welcome to Alabama sign.

1:03 pm 125 miles to go!
So close. So close!  But that border doesn't seem to be getting any closer! Gahhh! Stupid gps playing tricks on us. *grumbles*
Such pretty tree colors to look at tho.

1:30
SWEET HOME ALABAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Going home monday and we're sick.

We re packing up and getting ready to go home and I'm just mildly depressed. I haven't been sleeping, having major sinus headaches and now I've got the sniffles. Nooooooo! I won't be able to visit Pop. I am so not happy about this. Taking extra vitamins and cold meds hoping its just a sinus infection.

And to top it all off AJ over exerted himself work ing out today. He got super dehydrated and sick. :( pumping him full of liquids today and tomorrow hopfully it helps.

Tatls Treat

"Oh hi. I gots nomz"

"nommz mommnz noms nomz nommms"

"All gone. Gotta clean my paws"

 "Gots any moar?"

"I know you gots some moars some wheres"

"Yays! Two treatz! I mustta been super good! Banana AND white chocolate. My faves. Thank you mommy" 

"Snuggle time with mommy before bed"

A very large project

I want to make  Amigurumis, and teddy bears and hats for Childrens Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama for Christmas, for the kids with cancer. I feel that God has laid this on my heart, but I can't do this on my own. I need help making these tho. If any one wants to donate yarn, teddy bears or the time to make these please let me know. If I can get enough support and enough stuff in time I will contact Children's Hospital with the gifts to donate.

If any one's spent time with those kids, you'll know ho much this will mean to them. Those kids are some of the strongest people I've ever met. My heart goes out to them and their parents, and with it being Christmas time I'd like to bring a little bit of cheer and a smile to those little faces. 

This works

Well the insomnias been getting worse of the last 2 weeks. Going from getting 4 hours of sleep to NONE at all for 2 or 3 days and its really been taking its toll on me. I can't get any thing done. I'm to tired to drive any where. Constantly grouchy and arguing with AJ... It really really sucks. Then aj got me to try this DreamWater stuff... And guess what? It actually works. Last night I drank one around 9 30 and before it was 10 30 I was out like a light. It was so nice actually sleeping through a night with out waking up ever 30 mins or so. I woke up this morning around 7 feeling more rested than I've been all week. Its great.

New Back Ground

See my new background on here? I took the picture up on Mt Scott the other day and edited it on PhotoScape. My new favorite free photo editing software. Go look it up if you want some thing good but free. :)
I've taken a lot of new pics lately :D I wish I had a new camera tho....Gotta wait till Christmas :P
I also wish I'd charged my batteries earlier today. It was family day and I got to go watch AJ shoot the big guns! It was so much fun. And I got to eat lunch with him ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ It made my day. Now I'm tired and going to bed so I can get up tomorrow. I've got some cleaning to do and the bug guy is coming tomorrow. Tootles. TTFN ta ta for now... Night.

This is my Tatl

Isn't she cute?

Tatl

We got a sugar glider today!!! I am so excited but she's so grouchy right now... Then again it is the middle of the night for her. We're calling her Tatl, tattle, like the fairy from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. :D She's so cute but lordy she's loud. :) Right now she's sleeping in my shirt in the little pouch I made her from super soft fuzzy fleece stuff. She got to cold sleeping in her cage right now. The air was on from when I left to go get her earlier xD Poor thing. But any ways hopefully she'll be happier later tonight after some sleep.

Hey momma Im writting again :)

Y'all should check it out. If you can't figure out who I am then you need glasses lol. Have fun reading @ Dragons Haven as we move the story along. Let me know what you think on here or join us in writting the story of Dragons Haven.

Yay for writting boo for insomnia

Finally I've gotten back to writting again. I love it. I'm thrilled, and excited and bursting with ideas. And I found some olld friends I used to rp with. This is so much fun I want wait. Gives me some thing to do when I can't sleep. Soon I'll have a little sugar glider to play with when I can't sleep. He gets to ride in a ppouch around my neck and get carried every where I go. I'm gonna play with it and love it and hold it and teach it things hehehehe... I know I'm silly. I'm also gonna see if I can go to the doc for these chronic headaches. Seems like their getting more frequient. And that worries me. No I'm not worried about it being some thing stupid but I don't want it to be some thing like high blood preasure. I'm only 21 that would suck. But any ways I'm finally dozing off an hour before I gotta wake AJ up... Night Night

A new Pet

Since Riley didn't work out, we ve been looking through the pets shops and adoption centers(yes and the shelters) for a dog.  So far we've only found one that seemed like a good fit, but the petshop wanted waaaaaaaay more than we planed and budgeted to spend. So we wnt to the other pet shops and told them to put us on call lists for when every they have a good apartment dog.
But then I got to thinking. What else would make a good apartment pet? Ferrets stink, birds make a large mess, hamsters aren't that personal. Maybe a bunny if you could litter box train it. And then there's a sugar glider. Cute, smart, personable, fun and small. Talked to Aj about it and I did some more research on it. We both agreed it would be a good little pet for now. Looking into getting one some time in the next week or two and then later on for AJ maybe. Still keeping a dog in mind but fir right now I'm happy with the idea of a little suger glider :) 

Not sleeping is getting old

Idk what it is, well I kinda do but dont feel like getting into it right now. But I did not sleep last night. Again. Well more than 2 hours of solid sleep. From 1 to 3am I had a little sleep. Then the dry erase board fell off the door. The front door. Yes, I heard it from the bed room. No, Aj did not even wake up.He can sleep through almost any thing. He's slept through a tornado. I, on the other hand, am a very light sleeper. I wake up at the littlest sound or movement unless I can get into a deep sleep, which lately has been rare. Since before the wedding, rare. I'm soooo ready for a solid nights sleep. I'm ready to try some thing new to help me sleep. Then the upstairs neighbor was bumping around and after that some one started up and revved a few good times a motorcycle right outside the bedroom window. SO I am still up after AJ's gone back out to work after coming in and changing and getting breakfast and spending a little time with me. ... I'm going to try and take a nap for a few hours now.

Edits

Here are some of my pretty pictures I edited. :) We spent the day cleaning then trying to geocach. We found one earthcach at Medicine Bluff the just drove around aimlessly following the GPS. But it was fun :) :) And AJ picked me a pretty flower. All in all it was a good day. I posted more pics on Facebook. 

Movies

So in the last week or two we've rented or gone to see a few movies.

Insidious, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows part 2, Priest,  Quarantine 2, Your Highness, Season of the Witch, all of the Indiana Jones movies, Fargo, Wake Wood, to name a few. So far Harry Potter and Priest have been my favorites out of the new ones. I can totally see Priest coming out with a second. I've already thought up side stories I'd love to rp. Gosh I wish I could find a good RP. I haven't written with any one in a while and I'm itching to write. Some one gave me a link to check out and I might do that some time tomorrow or the next day and see if there's any thing good on there.

Rain is a good thing

 Rain is a Good Thing -- Luke Bryan

It rained today while AJ and I went out to dinner! It was so pretty! I loved it! And I took lots of pics. I think my phone takes better pics than my camera. :/ Oh well. Heres some of my favorite shots from today. 

3 things

There are three things  I want and have goals to get by christmas...
#1 a dog
#2 a good camera
# 3 a library card

lol :) But I'm off to bed for tonight before AJ falls off the couch again. I watched "Your Highness" while he fell asleep :) Sill tired boy. Gotta wake him up at 4 30 :/ for another long day. He's gonna be in the feild doing some training or shooting thingy tomorrow. Blech the weekend needs to hurry up. I miss AJ  when he's gone all day. Its lonely here by my self. I hope we get another GOOD apartment dog soon. I want a dachshund like Mason. I really really really super bad miss my cuddle buddy. Mason is an awesome doggy and I miss him. And Jimmy Jam too. I miss him too. And Bella the really really old Goat back home, and Meme the sheep. Not Monster(Misty) tho. She's mean. And Jasper, and Crafty. I miss the woods and green trees and the rain. I HATE lightning and I even miss that.  Its so hot here the rain evaporates before it even hits the ground. I'm having a homesick moment I suppose but you should see the difference between the two places!
And I miss hearing "Y'all".

I'll post comparison pics tomorow. G'night.

Phone Pics
