Bored at work...there will probably be a lot of these...

So it's only been like a week and a half since I last wrote! Haha. Mom came and helped us clean our apartment that weekend and it was practically spotless when she left! I've been trying very hard to make sure everyone is cleaning up their own messes so it doesn't get that way again.

This last week I've been very stressed. First, I didn't get the wells fargo job I applied for, and I was really hoping for something new. I worked like 60 hours last week for spring break, and then to top it off, I found out Weston was STILL in the hospital (he'd been there for about 4 days already) with his RSV and it wasn't getting better, so I called into work and took some time to go see him. It was so sad to walk in and see him with wires attatched to him everywhere:( Found out this morning that he was going to go home this evening tho, so that made me very happy!

I also went bridesmaid dress shopping with Deb and Sarah. Jenn already has her dress and Cassie knows what she wants, but I don't think she's ordered it yet. Deb ordered hers this past weekend and Sarah kinda just looked to see what she might like after the baby's born. Now I just have to get my sister's dress and get on Brian about his crew's suits!

Hm....7 minutes left until my shift is over and I can go home and relax with the soon-to-be hubby and roommates. I need to get some more wedding planning done. I need to set up a wedding planning day with Cassie soon to knock out a bunch of stuff (since she's my maid of honor and all)!

I don't have to work tomorrow unless I get called in sometime before 7 am.

Oh, shift is over, gotta go!

Why does it always take me forever to write? I need to fix that.

So it's been another 6 1/2 months since I last wrote. I'm sitting at work being bored off my mind right now. I get to leave in about 20 minutes so this post will be short. Btw, I got the job at Lutheran Services of Iowa as a Youth Specialist and have been here for almost 6 months. I enjoy it, but some days I really want to quit. I recently applied at like 30 other jobs that are more in my field of degree, and so far I've gotten one call-back. I have a phone interview on Monday for Wells Fargo as a teller. No idea where, what the hours would be, or how much it pays, but hey, it's better than getting beat up by kids all day. We'll see how that goes. Crossing my fingers.

Wedding plans are coming along well. I bought my dress. We have our reception hall, dj, photographer, and cake lady all booked. My bridesmaids are working on ordering their dresses, which is awesome! I can't wait to show off my dress!

I feel like our apartment is still not unpacked....I'm so not motivated to do it, and of course no one else is either. Brian works 40 hours a week and is a part time student. AJ works like 25 hours a week, but spends every minute that he's home in his own room, and Megan is always at her boyfriend's house, so she doesn't do shit. It irritates me, but I always get over it. Mom, Scott, and Brent are actually coming down tomorrow and staying till Sunday afternoon to help me get stuff organized and put away. Mom's going to help me hang stuff up on the walls, since our walls are still bare after 6 months! Jamie's not coming...

Speaking of Jamie....she broke up with Ethan like a month ago, and it seems to be final. I got a call from mom tonight (yes, while at work, I answered my phone...shame on me!) saying that she spent a day with Ethan the other day to maybe try to work things out and apparently he tried to choke Aden, so for his sake, I hope I never see him again. Jamie turned him into DHS for the second time, but apparently they never did anything the first time, so who knows if they'll do anything this time. I'm still trying to convince Jamie to move to Ames, but no luck so far.

Speaking of Jamie reminded me of Brent. Haha. He got his first DUI a few months ago, at the age of 16. Oh, how proud I am of him (Joking). At least he learned from it. He's working to pay it off, and he has a ride to work every week I guess, since he no longer has a license.

OMG the last time I wrote, Jamie was still pregnant. She had Weston Michael Wirtz on November 5, 2009. He's now 4 months old and soooo cute. I would post a picture if I was on my home computer. Poor guy has a sinus problem and has been congested since he was born, and the doctors don't think it will go away until he's at least 6 months old when his nasal passages get bigger. Aden's getting big! He's almost 20 months old and so adorable. He's learning to talk and getting in trouble a lot. Again, I'd post a picture if I wasn't at work.

I now only have 3 minutes left until my shift ends, so I'm going to head out! Hopefully I'll write before the next 6 month mark. Haha.
