Monday Night

First, I’ve had a headache since about 4pm - so my temperament and patience has been slim to nil, although I don’t think anyone noticed.
Here’s how my Monday night went:
Immediately after work I head to the jewelery store to talk to the manager about my ring situation. The conversation and options went well. I was [...]

Ugh! Work was so freaking busy today!! But I did receive a wonderful surprise from Greg this afternoon: Lunch!! Greg came over to my job during my lunch hour with a surprise lunch from Bill Bateman’s! Greg ordered us some yummy wings and a Chicken Chesapeake (grilled chicken breast topped with crab meat and their crab [...]

First Day of 2008

I wrote my first check for 2008 today at Giant!
And, that’s about it for excitement.
Greg and I stayed up until midnight last night; watched all the fireworks go off around us (Glen Burnie and Pasadena) and then went to bed. Such an eventful night, right?
Our first day of the new year was very uneventful. We [...]

Whirlwind Holiday!!

I am at a loss - where do I start?!
These past five days have been such a roller coaster; with Greg seeing his ex at Target on Friday (he’s lucky I wasn’t there or I would have confronted her about a few things), to a whirlwind weekend of Christmas surprises, my engagement, spending the day [...]

Word is traveling fast about my engagement to Greg. I’ve received a ton of emails, Myspace Comments, and text messages from all my friends and family!! Everyone is so freaking happy!
One of my best-est friends, Daniel, sent me the following text last night (it’s in three photos to show the whole text message):

 
Oh, Daniel is so [...]

Lazy Saturday

 The picture above is my favorite picture taken today. Amelia loves Greg’s Seattle Seahawks hat. At times, she will sit on the floor sucking her thumb and holding onto his hat. Amelia is so attached to Greg; it’s so adorable.
Greg and I were so lazy in the beginning of the day. We didn’t get dressed [...]

They Know

Greg’s extended family now knows about Amelia and me. Greg finally spoke to his Grandparents in Alabama this evening. He told them a secret (that I’m not suppose to know but I think I’ve guessed it) and about Amelia - they are eagerly awaiting to photobook that we’re working on. I was able to get [...]

Saturday Recap

 
 
 
Greg and I had a great time last night! The party was small and intimate; the drinks were cheap ($2.50!!) and the food was surprisingly good!
And, even though I was running late we made it on time!
After I posted, Greg and I watched a little TV and got engrossed in a show called Intervention, on [...]

Two Years Ago…

It’s been two years, to the day (and nearly the hour as I write), since Aunt Ellie passed away.
Here’s what I wrote before I left to say good bye to her at the Hospital and here’s what I wrote when I came home after being gone for a week.
It was that week that Greg (aka: Copyguy) [...]

Now that it’s December…

Let the good times roll!
Tomorrow is the December edition of the Ralston Social Club! Greg is looking forward to the party, as is Brooke; I think she misses Amelia.
As I’ve mentioned before; my weekends for December are all booked! I don’t think I’ve ever had this much of a social life since high school. It’s [...]
