something fun to do!

So Sara over at Little Rhody Girl has tagged me to do a MeMe. I have to tell 7 truths about myself and tag some of my lovely blog buddies!

1. I'm going to school to be a nurse but sometimes really want to quit school and just work. I really enjoy my customer service job eventhough I know I will never make enough money.

2. I just turned 21 and I don't think I really know how to be grown up. I keep saying I want to be moved out on our own but that thought still scares me.

3. I hate doing the dishes. I always leave them for Chris to do hehe.

4. I don't want to plan my wedding. It is way to overwhelming for me and I would rather just run away and do it in Vegas.

5. As much as I complain about Cape Cod, I think its starting to grow on me.

6. I am a t-shirt and jeans girl. I always want to dress a little nicer but you know what I would always rather be in something comfy and soft instead.

7. I enjoy playing WoW

Hard hats required

So the outside of my house is a construction zone. They are digging up my roas and putting in drains. I also think they might be widening the road (but that might just be the road next to mine). The working men seem to be having a good time but golly is it a mess over here. and it happens to be right at the end of my drive way!




not to mention that the roads in this neighborhood are a mess! TONS of pot holes and at one point right after the winter the road was basically crumbling to pieces. Lets hope this fixes the problems :)

In other news:

we have this customer that comes into the store. they will come in and buy things with coupons which pretty much means that ther are getting some stuff for free. they will then come in later with the item that the "purchased" with the coupons and returns it. never has a receipt and their excuse is always "I bought the wrong one". When someone returns something withough a receipt I have to give them store credit. Not a huge deal I suppose because they HAVE to use the store credit at our store , however they are being given store credit for something they didn't PAY for. Nest time they come in and there is a manager there I am to call them down so that they can deal with this scam artist. Yes we have caught on!!!!

Finally something to talk about hehe

I turned 21 on Saturday!!

It was such a good night! My best friend Kayla and some of my very close friends from URI came up to celebrate with me. It was pretty liberating to be carded and order drinks at a restaurant. And boy were they good! In light of my recently becoming legal I though I would do some drink reviews lol.

Bad: Del's lemonade with vodka
The recipe calls for 2 cups ice and 1 cup water so they talked me into putting 1 cup vodka instead of the water. BAD BAD idea. it tasted like vodka and I don't like vodka. next time ill do 1/4 cup vodka and 3/4 cup water I think that will be better.

Good: Cozumel Coolaid
Its orange soda and some kind of liquor w/ some other stuff in there and it was really quite good.

Really good: Screaming Banana Banshee
It was like a banana daiquiri it was delicious! I LOVE banana and it tasted almost like banana cream pie. I will certainly get another one of those when I go out lol

Awesome new find: Sweet Tea Vodka
I guess this is huge down south but its kinda new up here to us northerners. We mixed it with some iced tea and it was AWESOME! If anyone has any other ideas on what to do with this awesome liquor let me know bc i really like it.

My favorite everyday beer: Sam summer
I mean what is not to like about it?? it has a really nice not offensive flavor and throw a lemon in it and that bite is GONE. I love to have one on a hot day, or any day for that matter hehe.

Hopefully life will begin to get more interesting so i can actually have things to tell all of you but lately it has just been work, work and more work.

I am trying to get some plane tickets to go to Florida in November. last time i looked south west was kinda expensive :( hopefully the price will go down! Tomorrow Chris and I will be going to the Barnsatble County Fair. Ill be sure to take pictures bc that should be fun!

Talk to everyone soon please leave me some love so that I know you haven't all left me!!

The meeting of the parents

Again, sorry I haven't posted much lately, I just haven't had much to say.

So mine and my Fiance's parents FINALLY met. We have been together for 2.5 years and until last Sunday, they have not met. I was quite nervous about it. I was afraid that they wouldn't get along. Both my parents are pretty liberal and Chris' parents.. are well... not. I told everyone prior to this that politics are OFF LIMITS hehe. needless to say, they all behaved. It went fantastically . We all went to the zoo that morning because I wanted to go to the zoo and Chris' mom wanted to bring the kids so we decided that that was the perfect time to get everyone together. I think the kids had an awesome time. My niece is only like 16 months so she only knows a few words and she called all the animals doggies. Atelast we know she got the concept.

I did't take a lot of pictures but my nephew took a couple (yes hes 5 and can take good pictures). Chris took some on his phone so im just waiting for him to upload them. Once he does I will steal them hehe.The Giraffs. Collin took this picture






My niece and my FIL. Collin also took this picture




My niece walkinbg a little bit



The elephants.


In other news- Aparently my ex-BF IM'd my Friend today. I have no idea why. I haven't talked to him in months and my friends hate him. I hate him. He played terrible mind games and really messed me up emotionally. For a long time he was calling me all the time, I never answered bc, well... I didnt want to talk to him. I am just totally confused on why he is trying to contact my friends.. Maybe he is trying to get in touch with me? *Sigh* I just want him out of my life!. This may be sad and mean but if I was told that he had died.. I wouldn't go to the funeral or really care frankly, he hurt me that much.
