Im addicted

I'm officially addicted to Anime!! First of all I love cartoons. I always have. But Anime is so much more interesting. So far I've watched all of the Full Metal Alchemist, Ikkitousen ( up to date anyway) And now I've started Death Note.

I'm also addicted to Avatar The Last Air Bender. An American made Anime. The third and final season is Finlay over. It was amazing!! I knew how it was going to end but there were just some specific details I never expected!! The way the Fire Lord was defeated. Wow it was something I didn't even think could be done by the Avatar. Zuko was amazing. His bending has really exceeded in power. The end results were so exhilarating.

Let's just say I'm a fanatic. I know its strange but it's more common these days to like Anime!! I'm to a point to where I'll pay and extra $20 a month on cable just to get the Anime channel.

This weekend

Vern's dad has invited us up to Rock Springs for the weekend. All expenses paid. We don't have much money it being the end of the month and all. We'll leave tomorrow when I get home from work. Then that night we'll most likely go to Applebees or Coyote Creek for dinner then to a bar afterwords. Then on Sunday its a day at the lake with wave runners!!! I'm so excited!! I'll be trashed Sunday night but hope fully I can make it to Piper Down to karaoke with Becky.

It's going to be another event full weekend!!!

Family Reunion

This past weekend Vern and I went down to Kadacome Basin for his family reunion. My dad came with us along with Preston. (I wasn't about to leave him alone all weekend) My niece Cadence came as well. We left Friday and got there late. We set up camp and I passed out with the little ones. On Saturday I woke early with the dogs and the Babies. I made breakfast and when everyone was finally awake we meet up withe the other family's and set off on a hike. We made it back to camp and the kids and I took a nap. We mad sandwiches for lunch.

Saturday night we had the famous Dutch Oven cook off. Summer and I made a dish we got from her mom. It took two hours to cook and at the end everyone loved it. We tied for first and plays Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine the winner. We won! after that we had the talent show. I left early and took the kids to bed. I fell asleep too.

Sunday we all gathered back together to make a huge Breakfast. Bacon, eggs, hash browns. and Pancakes. Yum!! We left shortly after that. Dad the kids and I left first. We were not even an hour out when some ones cooler lid hit our car. It would have been a horrible accident if dad hadn't reacted the way he did. We were very thankful that we had said a prayer before we left. The kids slept through the whole thing. We got home around five and i was asleep by seven. Taking car of two toddlers all weekend out in the blistering hot sun is tuff work.

My Crazy Family

Well this past month has been a doosey for me. My mother decided to move out of her house and take my brother with her. She's left all the house responsibilities to my dad. She wont help with the payment or help fix the house so they can sell it. She doesn't even care if she looses money on it. She is still smoking and partying. It really bothers me that she acts like a single 20 year old. She never listens to what we have to say so I guess we have to wait and see what she does with her life.

My brother is doing well despite of all the things that are happening. He has picked up extra shifts at work and spends all his free time at the high school football meets that have just started. He loves helping them out. I still feel that he is harboring his feelings.

Carissa is surprisingly doing quite well. She has started dating my friend Chris. He is an amazing guy. He has a football player build and is about six foot. A buckle at your knees smile and a gold metal personality. He is a professional BMXer and has a full time job as well. He really likes my sister and spends as much time with her as she can. He is so great with my nephew. Though Preston still isn't sure what to think of him.

Dad on the other had isn't holding himself together well. He breaks down easily and talks about my mom all the time. He looks to me for support and encouragement. He's been talking suicidal but claims he's still here because of Preston. I honestly don't think he could take his own life and hurt us that way. I pray for his happiness everyday.

All in all I really hope things work out soon so we all can go back to being happy with each other.

Update on Vern and I

Well lets see, Vern and I have been doing great. We're still going strong and heve been getting along great. I finally got my car back from Wes, It's so clean now and smells good. If only I can get vern to put a radio in it. Vern has new hours at work. He starts at 7:30 now and he can get off as early as 5:00. Its nice to see him more often. I also have a new schedule. I finaly have all my saturdays off and only work every other sunday. This way I get to see Vern more often.

Vern got his breaks on his bike fixed and has been ridding non stop. He has been so much happier this past month. His dad has moved back to Rock Springs and is down here all the time. It really makes Vern happy to see him so much. His dad seams happier too. He finally gets a chance to get to know me better and to see his granddaughter as well.

We're working on selling our truck, but so far it's not going well. My sister has it right now cause she is careless. She really needs to just go back to work and buy her own. But, the good sister I am I'm letting her be lazy.

Vern had a job interview last Friday. He said it went well. I really hope he gets it. I'm very tired of his job now. He doesn't make enough money all the time and his boss is an ass hole. His job stresses him out too much. This new job would make our life so much easier. He would bring home three times as much money and work less hours. All I can do is pray he gets it.
