Busy, But Not Sure With What...

I know that it has been awhile since I have posted, but I feel as if I have been busier than a one-legged man in a butt kicking contest... I am not sure why. The past few weekends have been great! I have been getting all my flowers in.. holy cow! Eight flats and about $150. in the hole.. I finally did it! I have flower beds running up each side of my front side walk. Usually I do impatients, however this year Gary wanted to do petunias. He specically wanted red, white and those purpley, blue type.. they look beautiful! It just took sooo many of them! I bought 3 flats, and then it just kept going from there.. 8 flats! But it will be gorgeous when they all fill in. In our back yard, my roses are coming in beautifully! And my sylvia are just huge this yr! Gorgeous purples!

On the work front, the job has been going really good. I like the work, for the most part and people are great. There are a few things here and there, however, nothing like I have dealt with before! However, I am still considered to be a "temp" my 500 hrs are up tomorrow... and no word of hiring me in full time. They say that Maximus (the company I have been working for) has put a freeze on hiring! So I am a little frusterated because I feel like I have been working hard to prove to them that I am a hard worker, and now they potentially might not have a place for me for awhile... however, I am thankful I am still bringing in paycheck every week!

Gary has been running and running. A couple of weeks ago, he ran in another race. He finished 10th place in his age bracket.. not too bad for someone that runs for fun... Gary and I have also been partying and partying it seems.. not sure how it all happens, but it does. Last weekend, Gary and I started on the back patio of a little pub in downtown Lansing, we then ended up at some friend's house on the back deck.. playing cards, and throw'n back some cold ones. (that was friday night) After a slight hangover Saturday, we jumped right back in the saddle and did it again Saturday night. Gary went to his friend's Joe's house to talk artillary (army stuff) I on the other hand, had a bunch of wild, party animals pick me up (friends) We went to a little dive in Lansing, called Art's Bar, had some pizza and a couple rounds of rum and cokes.. we then ventured into East Lansing, and went Harpers and sat out on the back deck singing, like only drunk people can do.. along with the dude who was the entertainment.. Good times! We then ended up at our house, for more drinks and cards.. WOWSERS! I am not 21 anymore! Sunday came rolling around, and I was tired and pretty much dehydrated, my friend Megan decided she wanted to come over to my house and chat along with some beer.. at that point.. I thought.. sure, why not? Why not act like I am 21?

Well, now that I have a persuaded you all into thinking we are lushes, I am going to go have dinner along with my hubby and drink water!
