Useless Rambles

Name:
Location: Puyallup, Washington, United States

I'm just a normal 40 hour a week, working woman that is trying to save money wherever she can. I have a wonderful husband and two big kitties and hope to have children in the near future. I enjoy being around my huge extended family, playing softball, and various games of all kinds.

Nothing new

Ok, just wanted to say nothing new here. Which is probably a good thing considering the last month. Hehe. Back to normal boring, no more drama, Sarah Bear! Woo Hoo. Now to catch up on old emails and phone calls. oh and sleep, love to sleep. And yeah for Thursday night TV shows! Love it. And new West Wing, love that too. And to hell with for Better or for Worse cutting their show into 1/2 hour. that's crap, taking out all the stuff I want to learn. There's my rambles, hehe. get to bowl tonight! Yeah. I know, kind of sad, but at least i'm doing something constructive with my old ass. hehe.

I feel lost

I've been thinking. I need to get shit faced drunk...but I don't want anyone I know here around, so this might be a solo adventure. People here are too fun to be drunk around. LAME!! I could go for some rounds of king's cup or ride the bus though. Don't know if I'd last too long, but some old times sound fun.

Step up, 2 steps back

Ok I start thinking that I've moving on and the tasks on my list are getting smaller...but why am I so exhausted? I just feel drained. I've had something to do since I got back from vacation almost every day. This week is no exception. I haven't had time to clean my own house or do laundry or anything. It's crazy.

Good news, parents are about 90% moved. Have to do more stuff on Sunday. I've been there almost every day and last night treated them with a huge pasta dinner. Which they needed.

They've started arguing with each other about where things go. It's not pretty, on one hand you have my mom who wants things to look good and on the other, my dad, who hasn't been able to really help at all and who has started just putting things away. All of this makes it hard when you're trying to help them out. I then get the, "go ask him/her" response. I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE!

But now I have a dentists appt tomorrow, some carpet guys coming on thurs....it's getting to be a little much. But I will move on...I might try to talk to my boss about taking a day off, even though I already took a vacation...but that seems so long ago...

oh sorry for all that I have not emailed back or called back. I will...eventually. Had to take a couple of moments to vent.

Is it possible?

Ok, is it possible to ever trust 100% with no doubt in another person? Can you have a relationship with a person you sometimes doubt? Not necessarily because they have proven to be dishonest with you, but more because all the people you would think would not lie to you, did. And in their past, they have not been trustworthy to others?? No matter how much you try, you still tend to doubt people, is that bad??? Could you ever erase that doubt? And if so, how?? Is it really possible??

So much pressure in life

So, started thinking about wedding plans, and man I'm lost. Don't even know where to start. So wedding might be a while. haha. Have to have location first I think. I don't know.

I think we might purchase a home first. Which is the smart thing to do....but darn it, I want my wedding...haha. We'll see how it goes. I would like to quit renting, especially from this sneaky landlord of mine who loves to tear about anything nice we do outside. Yesterday, he decided to top off a tree, which evolved into cutting every branch off, making it look like a miserable tall stump. It irritates me soooooo much. Just the leave the crap alone a-hole. haha.

And then he always makes comments like "I'm going to hire some Mexicans to help me out with the yard." What the bleeping hell?? It's so rude. And the funny part is that he's gay, so you would think he would have a little more understanding of what it feels like to be labeled. Granted, I'm not mexican, but I'm seriously thinking of playing some latin music the next time he comes over. Maybe inviting my dad over, since most people think he's latino anyways. And after my tan in Vegas, I could be too. I just can't believe some people and they're perceptions of people. I mean, you kind of expect this kind of attitude in the south or midwest, but in seattle??? Come on now. Stupid, ignorant people.

Stupid America

I don't understand why we have to be so pigheaded sometimes. How long are we going to battle with this little island below us??? Do you think we'll even budge if Casto dies?

Vacation is what I needed......yeah!!!!!!!!

I had soooooooooooooooo much fun in Vegas. Tried to see everything, still left some sights for next time, hehe. Favorite hotels are NY NY and Stratosphere. If you ever get to go, go to the 50's diner in Stratosphere. Best place to eat. All the waiters and waitresses sing, it's awesome. Plus the food was great. Next time, I'm riding all the rides. I didn't do that. Peter got to drive a Nascar (that was his b-day present) and that was fun according to him. I'm too scared to do it, but he absolutely loved it. Oh and we rented a car because to get to LV Speedway, it would have costed $50/each way which would have sucked. Car was only $35 and that was a midsize. Not too shabby.

Got to see a million Elvis' too..cause there was a competition on Fremont (which I would go to as well). Even a child Elvis who was sooooooo cute. And a little girl Elvis....ahh...and I'm not even that big of a fan.Now to plan for Christy's wedding, the next destination. I would love to go to Maxfield's but just got that invite yesterday for Oct. Not enough time!! I'm bummed. People must give notice!! I just found out he was engaged like last month. And yeah obviously still shocked....Happy, but shocked...hehe.

Maybe I should have given more updates

Ok, so things are like this. Dad has his good days and bad. We had to take him back to the emergency room on Tues, they popped him full of pain medicine and sent him home. Wed, he is ok. Today, he is ok. So who knows what the hell is going on. But I am thankful that most days it seems like he's better. I'm not sure what made him get really sick again though. That scares me.

We might have found a house for my parents, but there's some sticky stuff with that. Nothing can go smoothly right now. Good news, the plan is to still go to Vegas. It's sort of my parents forcing us type of thing.

Also, got engaged this weekend. Peter was going to wait until Vegas, but with everything going on, he didn't know if we were going. Plus it cheered me up a lot. So yeah!! By the way, Sam, will be one of my bridesmaids? Was going to call you, but have not had time. Been at my parents almost 24/7 except for to work and sleep. Don't know any dates, but thinking summer of 07 so that way it gives me some time.

Oh and thank you all very much for your support. It means a lot to me. I almost can't wait to read all of the blogs, even from the people I do not know that well. It makes me feel very connected and I like that. Love you all.
