Piper is Here!

I wish I had a picture of Piper to display but I don't. I finally was able to see her last night. I was supposed to go up last weekend and spend 3 days with Shad N' Shay but due to Bronchitis and a cracked rib I had to stay home. But all is good! I finally met Piper and she is one of the cutest little babies I have ever seen. She has curly dark brown hair and olive skin and is quiet. And her sister Eve said I could keep her and she could live at my house!

My Favorite Little Gangster!

Monte is my Favorite Little Gangster of all time! We were lucky enough to have dinner with him last night. Of course we took him to Chili's! He's never been there and we love going there! Monte has such a special place in my world. He's the first person I call when I need a translation on any ghetto talk or slang that I don't understand. He's also the first person I'd call if I ever needed someone bumped off! Its good to have this kind of connection!! He has such a big heart and has such an understanding of how important family is. I've learned so much from him. And I've had so many laughs with him. If he could get one question answered it would be "Why did your Mom send you away to live with the Nuns?". And of course he'd only want to hear the answer from my Mom. Which he is convinced is NOT dead, contrary to what I tell him. He never really bought into the whole "My Mom lives in Heaven and I get to dial 1-800-Heaven to talk to her everyday". He's such a little smarty pants! Monte is currently getting enrolled in College. I'm hoping he has the stamina to see himself through Law School, he'll make one AMAZING Lawyer! He can talk his way out of just about anything and find any kind of loop hole to jump through. Happy Birthday Monte!!

February.......I must have missed it

Has anyone seen February? I can't seem to find it. Where did it go? Half my family has birthday's in this month, and I misssed them all. I made it to Trent's birthday but only long enough to say hello and then goodbye. And just so everyone knows, I'm sitting in Clinical and we're all on our laptops and I looked over at Allyson and suddenly felt better that she was looking up the latest Celebrity Gossip. Apparently something is going on with Gwenyth Paltrow's website. Anyway, February is about gone and I can't remember where it went and if I missed your birthday I'm really sorry. Sometimes listening to boys talk about how well they're doing in our program drives me nuts. Especially when they have to read a letter about how well they've done and they keep skipping over words because they can't read their own handwriting. But on the giggly side, I do love listening to their Therapists rip into them about how ridiculous they sound.

Down the Slopes Again!!

And back up the mountain we went again! This was my second trip, I had to miss last week due to staff not being responsible enough to show up for their own shift, stupid staff. Anyway, my second trip was good! I didn't do as well as I did the first time up, but that's okay, I was trying to do more tricks this time, like S-turns and traverse something a ruther. But it was fun! I picked up new boots to use and it made a HUGE difference! Hopefully I'll get to go back up tomorrow to practice some more!

Down the Slopes!!

Last Wednesday was my first time down the slopes on a SnowBoard! I have to say it was fantastic!! I made it down the hill without killing myself but what was better was that I made it down without falling!! It was amazing! We go back up this Wednesday again and hopefully it'll go as smooth if not smoother!

Vacation Time!!

Ask me where I'll be one week from today!! That's right! I'll be in Florida! Visiting Tara and her family. We're going to the Keys. But I have to tell you I'm more excited to spend the day at DisneyWorld! We went there two years ago and had a blast! And just to let you know how excited I really am, I sitting in a Lead Mtg totally ignoring what is being said, so that I can blog about my up coming vacation. I'm trying to think if anyone other than family and friends know about my blog. Anyway, I'm really excited and can't wait! I can't wait to get away from the icky snow, the bratty boys, and my messy room!!

One Week Away

I can't believe that Christmas is a week away! Thank goodness I went last Saturday to start my shopping! I never wait this long to do my shopping! I only have a few more items to pick up and I'm hoping that'll be over the next few days. I really miss blogging!
