What to blog about....

I have some pictures to post from the weekend. We did go to Knotts Halloween haunt and had loads of fun. I will hopefully get the camera downloaded tomorrow. I need to do laundry but I don't feel like it. Jeremy is working right now until sometime after midnight and of course I can not sleep when he is not home. So the dog and I are sitting on the couch watching ER season 1. Speaking of ER I can not believe that this is the last season!!!! They are supposed to bring back a lot of old characters the one I am wondering about the most is Dr. Green (Anthony Edwards) who they killed off a few seasons ago. They had him die of brain cancer so I am not sure how he is going to be coming back.

We have continued to watch the new 90210 and it has gotten much better and a lot less sexual than the first episode. I am enjoying watching it now. Desperate Housewives started on Sunday...kind of werid this season, they made it start 5 years after the last season ended. Brothers and Sisters also started on Sunday, very good show, if you have not watched it then you must try one episode.

The only other show I am waiting for is CSI, which starts in October. Other than that I need to learn to nt watch so much tv.

So Theresa had requested that Jeremy be Princess Cinderella for Halloween and he will do it but wants someone to py him $50 for doing it...any takers?? I need to find a dress big enough to fit him or figure out a way to make one. I have some ideas which I might work on tomorrow. Can you imagine Jeremy in a Cinderella costume taking Travis and Theresa trick or treating????? I would give him $50 to do it if I had the money!!

I heard a rumor.....

Jeremy told me today that he talked to Earl and Earl reads my blog!!!!! I would never have known that since he NEVER leaves any comments. So Earl leave a comment once in a while, we miss hearing from you!!!!

Laundry

Why do I feel like I am always doing laundry? Jeremy cleaned out bedroom over the weekend and brought out a lot of clothes that were piled up. So I hve been taking my time this week and washing everything and going through the things that we never weat, time to donate our junk for that all important tax write off. I don't mind washing the clothes, especially with our new washer and dryer, but I hate folding the clothes and putting them away. Jeremy always telle me to fold them and he will out them away, but we all know how men can be and it takes him about 3 days of me bugging him before the clothes get put away. So I guess today I will be folding everything and putting it all away.

Nothing els is going on with us. Jeremy is at work now and has to work tonight at a football game in Carpenteria, so I will eat dinner by myself. The good thing is that Survivor and ER both start tonight. I am shocked that this is ER's final season. Not sure what I will watch on Thursday's once it ends. CSI Las Vegas does not start again until 10/9 and I am very much looking forward to that.

We did watch Heros on Monday night, however I need to watch that episode again because I was very confused. Was anyone else confused??

Happy Birthday Jon!!

Today is my brother in law, Jon's Birthday. I know it's a pretty bad picture but it is the only one that I could find this morning. This was taken when we all went to San Diego in April. I will make sure to take some better pictures when we see them all in December.

Happy 34th Birthday Jon!!

Little sisters can be a pain in the butt....

We went to my dad's house on Sunday and my sister, Emily, has decided that I need to take her to Knott's Halloween Haunt, she was mad that I did not take her with me when I went last year. I explained to her that we are tight with money right now and may not be able to go, but I would check to see what kind of discount tickets there are and we would think about it. I have gone for the past 2 years and it is a lot of fun to go, but the tickets are about $39 per person with the discount from Burger King. I called her last night to talk to her about it and she says that she has "old people" (meaning our dad and her mom) that would give her money to go. Now I don't think of my dad as being old (He is only 54) but then I thought about it Emily is 16 and I guess that 54 would seem old to her!! So now I am playing with our budget to see if we can afford to take her. I think tonight we will go by Burger King and see if they still have the discount coupons, maybe that will make us decide if we are going or not!!

Can't sleep....

It's 2 am and I can not sleep. Why can't I sleep you night ask, well my mind is going in 50 different directions. I still have not found a job, I have bills to pay and our checking account is running out of money faster than I can put money in. I will get my next unemployement check in a week and Jeremy just got paid, but the money is leaving the checking account and going to bills. Car insurance was due yesterday so that had to be paid and my car payment was due last week so that is paid. Rent is due again in a little over a week. Is there ever an end to this?? On the plus side I now owe less than $2000 on my car and it should be paid off in January!!!

I keep thinking that things could be worse. At least the truck is paid off and we do not have a house payment (Thanks Mom for giving us the house), we just get to pay space rent now, which is less than a mortage but will go up again in Febuary. I am glad for the time that I have been able to be at home. I am slowly getting things cleaned up and we painted our living room. I just now need to paint a few other walls and then the house will feel really clean. My next big project is to clean out our junk storage area. I am going to see what stuff we can sell but I think most of it is junk that needs to be tossed or maybe some stuff can be donated for that all inportant tax write off.

I think I am going to go watch some tv and maybe take some melatonin and maybe then I will be relaxed enough to get some sleep.

Movie Review.....


Jeremy ad I actually went to the movies the other night. We saw Tropic Thunder, I was told that it was pretty funny, which it was but it was also kind of stupid. We laughed through a lot of the movie but it is one that I am so glad that we did not pay to go see it, we used our passes that my Dad gives us.
This movie is a must rent if you enjoy comedy movies. Yes it does have tons of swear words, but you can't help but laugh at Ben Stiller, he is funny and stupid all at the same time!!
