New Blog page. :)

I love pictures. I mean I love pictures. I have so many picture frames around my house, pictures on the fridge, everywhere. I love them, so I decided to add a page of just pictures that I love. If you want to check out more of our pictures--check out our shutterfly. It's has a ton of pictures on it, and I am slowly adding all of the pictures from our computer's and facebook & myspace's to our shutterfly, so that I will always have them a couple places.

My Blog Pictures that I love.

Justin & I's Shutterfly

money fairy..where are you?!?

♥"So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever,you and me, everyday." ♥


I am learning that this quote is more and more my life, my every day life. There are days, even weeks where my life as "Shelby" is hard, really hard. Like make me want to lay in bed the entire day and cry. I am not good with anything stressful. I hate money- I hate hate hate it. Justin and I are experiencing our first signs that moving so soon might not have been such a good idea, without a little larger nest egg.

We went out, and splurged on dinners & other items, and didn't save any, because we thought that everything would be okay, and then Justin got laid off, and then he drew on his check to make up for a shortage of money, and then he got laid off again, so his check for two weeks was 300 hundred dollars, and we are used to his checks being 1,300. My check some how was 40 hours short, but they caught the mistake, and I will get the other 330 today. So we have to pay $800 today on the house, tomorrow. My check is only going to be 660, and we don't have all of the $300 left, so we are pretty much screwed on the whole money front. I hope we can come up with enough money to get through the next two weeks, and pay for our house.

That is the reason of all of my stressing. My extreme stressing. Thank you for all your thoughts and concerns. It has just been a wild week at work, and at home, and it just doesn't seem like it is going to get any better, until about mid June. I don't want to be stressed out that long. :( I need the money fairy to drop some dough my way & pronto.

*update- just checked online & my check is going to be a bit more than what I thought, we will have enough for the house, & about $50 to last us two weeks, good thing that's all we spend on gas, and that we have an extremely stocked freezer. :) Justin is going to sell his gun, my dad had said he was going to buy it, but I am not sure if that is still an option. I am happier now that we can at least pay the house stuff ontime.

Outside my window..it's blocked by some poles, I can't see a window from where I am sitting.

The time is..almost 1pm


Today I feel..stressed. I really need an extra 500 hundred to fall into my lap.


I am thinking..please have enough money to pay our first month of house payments on time, we will have more than enough on the 15th, but the first is not at all when we will have any money.


At the moment, I am thankful..that Justin and I are both working.


I am going..to hope & pray that we have enough money to get through.


I am wearing..scrubs & uggs.


I wish..someone would loan me $500


I am reading..a jodi book.


I am working on..not stressing.


I am hoping..to be unstressed by the weekend.


I am hearing..people talking.


Around the house..needs cleaning.


I bet you didn't know..I have been snacking on honey almonds all day.


One of my favorite..peoples will be at my house this weekend.

Weekend Wrap-Up [on a tuesday] :) :) :)

* I know I should have done this yesterday--
but I didn't work yesterday soooo I am doing it today.



{THURSDAY}
Got home from work early.
J was exhausted and went to around 6:30pm.
I was not going to sit around, and be bored and
super quiet, so I called Eho & she and I met V down
at Stacy's for Long Islands. It was way fun.

{FRIDAY}
Worked the entire day.
J and I went to dinner.
McGrath's Fishhouse-OMG. Way yummy.
We pretty much ate half our weight in food.



I then met up with K-bob & went out dancing with
her and V. Eho & my cousin ended up meeting up with us later.
It was a way fun night out with the girls & J-me. Justin
ended up staying home and going to sleep early.

{SATURDAY}
Justin and I woke up early, and met up with
K-bob and T, for breakfast, where J got the yummiest
looking chicken fried steak, I have ever laid eyes on.
K, T and I could not resist ourselves, we each took a big
bite out of it. :) We then took M her birthday present,
and J shot his bow for a bit.  After that we headed to to my
parents for some hang out time. We sat out on the trampoline for
a long time hanging out, and J and my dad went to go look
for a certain type of mushroom that is expensive if you find them,
and then sell them to a mushroom buyer. :) They found quite a bit and J
made $50. The girls and I went and watched Bella perform
at a dance competition. Which was really cool. :)

{SUNDAY}
Justin went out again with my dad looking for mushrooms,
they didn't find that many the second time. We hung out most of
the day with the girls, and lounged around.

{MONDAY}
J had to work, but they got off early, so he, E & I
headed to the old house to do some cleaning, the kitchen
is spotless {thanks for e}, the rest of the house still needs
some work, and there are a lot of odds and ends to move to the
new house. I will be so happy when that is all done.
J and I made an easy dinner and rented movies.


change is a comin'

Justin and I had such an awesome weekend, we had three days off & did so many fun things. We spent time with my sisters & family, and spent time with his family, spent time with friends, and all & all, it was amazing. :) I will do a recap--when I get a chance. I have been at work since 7:45am, and it is now- 12:52pm & this is the first moment {besides lunch @ 11:30} that it has been quite enough to do anything online. I need to catch up on three days worth of blogs, and commenting, and email & e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g!

   I have some news. You all know how I have been a crazy woman tad bit baby crazy lately, well..I really sat down and thought about it, after spending quite a bit of time with my cousin's children who are younger {adorable kids, well behaved}; I realise I want to advance in my career, like really advance. I want to have a degree in something that will take me somewhere, and a salary that J and I could live very comfortably on. I know that I want to work in the medical field, and that I want to continue to work in this line of work but that I would like make more money, and eventually be able to work from home. {Dream scenario: Have job that would allow me to work from home until the kids were in school & then go back to working somewhere}..so what better job--Medical Coder. They make pretty good money- I would be able to work from home [eventually] and it is the same line of work. Decision: Do not start TTC, go back to school.
   Today I filled out & filed my Fafsa for the 2010-2011 school year & I am going to schedule a time to talk to someone at the private college here, that offers night classes. I am so ready to go back to school, and I think it would help me so much to be refocused. It is going to be hard at first to work full time & go to school full time, but I know that once I was done, I will be so much happier. :)
   Justin is thrilled, he isn't quite ready for us to start a family, and he had kinda said it, but I hadn't really ever given the option to not start a family right away, and when I did, I thought he would cry, he was so excited for me. I know that one day J and I will make adorable babies and we will really be able to give them anything that they could ever want, and I would like to have two reliable new cars before we go down the path of baby making. :) :) :)

Well, hope you all had a good weekend.
Love,

Happy Birthday Sister In-Law {tomorrow}

This is the birthday card I made for her on shutterfly.
I also made these for her.

I really hope she likes it all. :) Yay for her birthday!

Wishing on 11:11


Last night I looked at the clock,
it read 11:11, I went to make a
wish, and realized I had nothing
to wish for, so I said;
I wish everything would stay
just the way it is.

Life is great. Even quite possibly fabulous.
It's Friday & I usually do the Fill in the Blank..
But I am not really in the mood to do it today.
So whatev.

Tonight-- I plan on going out with E-ho, K-Bob and V.
Way excited. Way excited. Way excited. :) :) :)
I have every intention of being rowdy rowdy this weekend.

Pictures will follow.

what is wrong with people?!?

Justin and I are chomping at the bit to be ready to have babies, we made a promise to eachother to be married a year, before we did away with our birth control methods, and even that year has been crazy hard to not just toss it all out the window and start TTC, but we are waiting, impatiently.

Then I read this and it makes me want to just cry, so hard, for that baby.

How could someone do that? How could they not care for or about the baby? It truely is sad. :(

dreams. wishes. thoughts.


When I was little, everything I did revolved around horses. I grew up on the back of a horse. Every spare moment was spent at the barn, whether I was riding, cleaning stalls, or just hanging out with the horses.

My first horse ever was a shetland pony my papa Gary bought for me. We bought him in the winter, from over east where there was quite a bit of snow, to our barn with stalls and a nice warm area for him, and fed him up with grain and hay-- and the sweet little pony turned into a terror! He would buck me off, and bite, and kick, and really was not that great of a pony. I climbed up on my papa's lap one night & told him--"Sell that pony, now"

My next horse was a hand-me-down horse, Gal, she had made her way down through the family and found her way to me, she was still in her prime when I got her, and spent many days crying because she was an older horse, so she knew all the tricks to frustrate a skinny blonde haired kid. She would stop at the gate, and not move, she would walk instead of trot, she would run full our instead of a slow lope, she would stop all of sudden, she also was a terror when she wanted to be. I rode her until I was about eight when my parents and grandma thought it was time for a bigger & faster horse.

I was really into barrel racing/pole bending/gaming & showing, so my parents and grandma and I took another trip over east to meet Jackie. She had been high school rodeoed, she was fast and smart, and just a little bit too much horse for me at the time, I wouldn't come to love that horse until I was older and in high school. I ended up breeding her, and still have her baby Dottie, I rode her for years.

Over the years, I had relied so much on horses, for comfort and a way to get out of my own head. I owned a mare named Reba, she was fiesty, and really only liked certain people. I loved riding her, and she and I became best friends. My grandma currently has 5 horses, all of which have amazing blood lines, and all of which I wish I had more time to ride. Emee {born on em's birthday}, Doty {my horse}, Foxy {the baby of the barn & J's favorite}, Raymond {whom I love and really would like to have as my own}, Annie {who is awesome to ride, and so talented}. I really need to make the time to go out there and ride, but I am so out of shape, and riding a horse that hasn't been riden in years--is a lot of work-- and I do not want to get bucked off. :)

Thanks for allowing me the trip down memory lane. :)

♥ [outside] MY [window] ♥

Outside my window..it's sunny, with a little overcast.


The time is..going by really slowly.

Post-it Note Tuesday




calm before the storm;


My life has been going pretty darn good lately. We got the house, we're most of the way moved in, J and I have been getting along fabulously, all the families are getting along, work is good, and goes by super fast. But, I am starting to think that was just the calm before the storm-- Our washer just went out, it died & went to washer heaven..J think he can fix it, and I hope he can, because we do not have the money to get a new washer, right now.

&& I woke up with the beginnings of this stomach flu thing that is going through the hospital with a wild fire. I am grouchy, I do not feel good, and I was swamped at work but now--we are dead, we have a dept. meeting at three something and I am dying a slow miserable death.

That is all for now. I got an award-- I will try to blog about it today. :)

a hangover the next day. Danced my tush off. Made E dance
her tush off. K-bob told the band it was E's birthday--
and they pulled her up on stage. Let me tell you--she is shy.
But I think she had a good time! We got tons of pictures
and I had thee best time. I am so freaken excited
about being able to go out with her.

{SATURDAY}
We woke up super early & moved most of the rest of the
house. Furniture, bedding, clothes, home decor stuff, pictures.
And got that all taken care of..there is still quite a bit of things
to move up to the new house, {but we don't have a certain
time frame to get it all done, so I am going to slack, and do
it next weekend. After paying our deposits and a drunken night at the
bar, J and I's bank account is not looking to mighty. :)} We went
to a BBQ at my mom's house & had such a good time. My cousin M has
thee cutest kids and it seriously makes me want a toddler. hehe. :)

{SUNDAY}

We went out to the house again and got another load of things.
And then we invited people up for a BBQ, we did just simple
hot dogs, potato salad, and chips. Which was way fun. And it's
kinda fun to clean up our house--and if you know me in real life..
you will know that thought has never crossed my mind. I hate cleaning,
but I am beyond excited to get a swiffer- and go to town on my floors.


Life is really good. I mean like really good. I can't even remember the last time, I wanted to smack thecrap outta Justin. We are getting along with both sets of family. I have my mother's day cards ordered, and I have my SIL-M's birthday stuff all done. I just need to wrap it all up, and I got her a card that is all personalized. I am so excited for her birthday party. I hope she likes it. I think she will. :) If you want to see it--leave me a comment with your email & I will send you a link.

ALSO--TO THE LADIES I AM SENDING PERSONAL-SNAIL MAIL TO- I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOU- I HAVE JUST BEEN BUSY--AND I JUST NEED TO SIT DOWN AND PUT THE PACKAGES TOGETHER- LOVE. :)

Alrighty- I am going to go look around online & see what I can find. :)
