Looking Up

After a vacation to Florida at the end of last month my Fiance and I decided that we are moving down there. No more cold winter months for us. I was reading through some other peoples blogs about winter reading and figured I would finally post about the good things going on in my life. Bryan enrolled in a school in Florida he is going to be a airplane matience, it's a 21 month program and it starts on March 4th. I don't know for sure when we are leaving Minnesota but it shouldn't be anymore then 3 weeks from now. I am going to be able to sit in the sunshine with a good book anyday now. We don't have jobs yet and will need to start looking for them right away but right now I'm just excited for the things to come. I will however miss my family and friends greatly but I need to focus on the positives and let those things fade into the background a little bit.

And it all comes falling down

So I went into work yesterday for my boss to pull me aside and tell me that we "are going to have to part ways" so his oh so nice way of saying that I'm fired. All for the stupid reason of using my cell phone at work. Who would have ever known it mattered that much. I still helped customers and got all the important parts of my job done. I haven't been feeling like myself lately and ironically before I went to work and life got even worse I decided that I'm depressed. I don't know why, I love my future husband we have a great doggie and before I decided this I had two jobs and was getting the bills paid (most the time) now everything has gotten even worse! I'm donating plasma tomorrow so that I have enough money to put gas in my car let alone do I know if I can pay rent or my car insurance. I just need things to turn around for me so I hope anyone that reads this can wish me just a little bit of luck and if your having a hard time to I wish you all the best in the coming days, weeks, months, years.

That is all

To Sleep Or Not to Sleep...

So today at work I found out that the owner of the dog kennel/breeding kennel I work at was going to put on of the golden retievers they own to sleep. His name is Hudson and he's a very kind dog, he wants nothing more then a belly rub when you open up his kennel for any reason. He is about 2 years old, barely out of the puppy phase. (judging by the fact that I am to feed my dog puppy chow until he's 2)

He has some joint problems so he gets stiff and has trouble walking now and then, however I don't believe he's in pain and he is suppose to get theraputic massages from the manager once a week and then from a professional once a month. The manager doesn't do this to take care of him. If she did I believe he would be doing atleast 30% better then he is right now. ALSO if he lived in a home he'd be doing better he could get up and walk around whenever he felt the need, right now all he can do is turn around in his kennel. I think in a home that can take care of him I think he would be doing atleast 75% better... Basically I didn't think he should be put to sleep because there are other options and I was angry and sad and it was just BAD! After they had a meeting with the vet and professional therapist they decided not to put him to sleep and try some other things for now which is goood. I just was really bothered by this and wanted to get it out there.

The Lovely Bones

So I was just flipping around on the interent and saw that "The Lovely Bones" is being turned into a movie. I had heard a rumor about this but didn't know that it was really happening. I don't see this working at all! Don't get my wrong the book was amazing, one of the best that I have ever read. But I can't see it transfering to the big screen in any way. I am scared to see this movie with the thought that it will completely destory the book. I wish I had more friends on here so I can hear other peoples opinions...

Sis,
Did you ever end up reading the lovely bones? I can't remember if you did you must tell me what you think of this becoming a movie. I think it said it was coming out in January.

2010 Book Blogger Challenge

***Update***

I have completed this whole challenge. I liked all the books I read for this but my favorite probably had to be Thirteen Reasons Why, it was just a great story and I really hope Jay Asher has a new book coming out soon! (I can't find anything that says he does though)

Well my sister just introduced me to blogging, never done it before perosnally, and when reading her post decided that if she is doing the challenge I better do it too! She's a brave Level 3 but I'm going to only go with a Level 2 to start and if I get done and it works well I might up that later. I found a few books that I am going to read for the challenge and here's my list (in no particular order).

Dead Until Dark - Charlaine Harris
Queen of the Damned - Anne Rice
Dark Lover - J.R. Ward
Remember Me - Christopher Pike
Uglies - Scott Westerfeld
Twisted - Andrea Kane
My Sisters Keeper - Jodi Picoult
Hush, Hush - Becca Fritzpatrick
The Husband - Dean Koontz
Thirteen Reasons Why - Jay Asher

Wish me luck!
(and Manda I figure you're going to read this Thirteen Reasons Why sounds really interesting!)

Intro...I guess

I started this up because my sister had me on here reading her blog and I wanted to be able to leave her feedback on some things. I don't know if I have anything interesting to say, In fact, I probably don't! However I have been thining I should start a blog for awhile now just as a way to express myself and get things out there. I often feel like an old married person and the only person I talk to that I don't work with his my fiance, well other then the occasional conversations with my pain in the rear puppy Mambo. Anyways if you happen to stumble upon me read away and leave thoughts. I like knowing what people think!
