Holy Cow!

You know, I knew I text messaged alot as I hate talking on the phone. Im old and my ears are giong bad so being on the phone has been a problem, plus, years of being a receptionist has really made me hate being on the phone, so text message is the best way for me other than email of course. Well, I was in for a shock. The last billing cycle or last month, I had 1400 text messages! Holy Cow! 1400! I would have NEVER thought it was that much. And whats funny is there are only a few people that I text message on a normal basis. I about fell on the floor. I guess some people do actually love me! LOL

I stand corrected. Andie brought it to my attention that she and I did see my man, Toby Keith, at the rodeo last year when he came, so it wasnt Vegas the last time I saw him. Sorry Andie! But hey, I do have my tickets in hand for his concert in Houston in September. I cant wait! I also have tickets to his fan club party which will be the same day! Ive never been to one of these before but supposedly we will get a meal, giveaways, some sort of trinket and a visit by the man himself! That is going to ROCK! I am so excited! I have lawn seats so whoever wants to go to the concert, get your tickets and come hang out with me! Is it September yet?!?!?!?!

I'm still in search of my perfect car. I hate it. There are so many little perks that I have gotten used to in my tahoe that Im spoiled. I've been trying to find another vehicle that has the same perks and its not so easy. Geez, I havent had to turn my dang lights on at night in 4 years! Now I may have to actually remember to turn them on all by myself! lol yes, its the little things in life that make me happy. Which I guess is a good thing for some people that have been in my life. LMAO.

Today we had game day at my Aunt's house. We had an absolute ball. I can not believe I actually saw my mother playing the Wii! As much as she tried to get out of it, we pushed her into playing and she actually enjoyed it. Never knock something until you try it.

On a sad note, theres been some bad news through last week. One of the probate court judges I know passed away from a stroke, which came as a shock; I have been talking to my second dad, who was my second mom, Cheryls husband, which of course makes me miss her dearly, but I'm soooo glad to hear from him. But, I found out he's dating!!! Good for him! but wow....its so surreal. And I also found out the reason a certain someone stopped talking to me a couple of months ago. Which makes it now loud and clear that he was lying to me for quite some time and believed him and really thought he was a friend. Oh well. what can you do but live and learn right?

LIFE

Wow. Ive just noticed its been a really long time since I logged in and actually posted something. Seems like everytime I sit down to do it, something else comes up.

Well, this week has been an emotional one. It has now been a year and 3 days since my second mom, Cheryl, passed away. Hard to believe its been that long already. Proof that time really does march on. My hamster died this week also. Im sure there is symbolizim in there somewhere but Im not exactly sure what it is.

On the upside here, my man is coming in concert to Houston on September 6! Woo Hoo! So of course here I sit until 10:00 a.m. when the tickets go on sale to grab my tickets. He is also coming to Las Vegas in July. Now THAT would be an awesome concert! The last time I saw him was in Vegas. That rocked! I would LOVE to go back but with the prices now a a days, just NOT gonna happen. Oh well. Theres always in my dreams! lol

I am also in the process now of looking for a new vehicle. With the cost of gas continuing to be on the rise, I've got to do something. My Tahoe eats about $600 a month in gas! OUCH! Sucks though, cause I absolutely LOVE my tahoe. Im just not a car person anymore, but looks like thats the route im gonna have to go. I dont see gas prices coming down anytime soon. :( Oh well, gotta do what ya gotta do. and I need to get myself in a better financial position. Need to be sure I can support myself. So now Im doing the horrible chore of actually shopping for a vehicle. I hate car dealers!!! But I have a secret weapon now! Im bringing a friend of mine with me and she's awesome at getting what she wants and dealing with these people so wish me luck!

Other than that, I dont even know where to begin telling you everything that's been going on so i guess I'll stop here.........until next time! :-)
