I need to take pics of the house now that everything is all set up. I still need to buy wall decor but thats gonna take some time and money. Jon has a few older paintings from his grandma that I do like and will use a few of them. The only issue is the frames are kinda...older, lol. We want to get one of those Texas star things for over the fireplace. And a few other ideas, like the cross wall.
Yesterday we got terrible news. Even tho Jon did the right thing when we were preparing for the move, by calling the previous homes management company and getting all the info (lease end date, last month free, etc), he got a phone call from them saying rent was past due. Not only that but the lease didnt end April 2, it was thru the month of April so we owe March and April, plus now the late fees for March. So...just $3000+ you know, nothing major.
O.0
Holy hell. We just moved in to the new place. We dont have that. And of course Dipshit and Dumbass are gonna help. They are so ridiculous that they actually hid Jon's firewood in Bri's closest. God, they are just plain trash. But yeah, so anyway, Jon's mom offered to take care of it for now, and of course he (and me) will pay her back.
I am trying to plan what to make this weekend when we have company. Saturday my mom and Pedro are coming and Sunday his momma is coming. I dont know what to make. And of course I am more concerned w/ what to make for his momma. Kinda thinking about a brunch...hmm...
Alright. Time to get back to work.
Happy Hump Day, folks :)
Seriously? You have GOT to be kidding me!

Boo. I Forgot my Breakfast.
Boo. I overslept. I hate that. I hit the snooze button too many times plus slept thru the alarm. I woke up at 4:32 and was out the door in 10 mins. But at the same time its nice to have the extra sleep, lol. Knowing that we have a vacation coming makes it hard to get up. I'm looking forward to a week of sleeping in past 4am.
I know Jonathan is probably gonna disagree, but I want a treadmill. I was planning on joining the Y w/ my mom (she already goes) but we wouldnt be able to match our schedules. I would want to work out as soon as I got off of work. IDK, maybe I can find something cheap.
I am going crazy w/o the internet at home. Comcast are being turds. They dont recognize our home, apparently in the 30+ years its been there, no one has ever had comcast or any form of comcast, xfinity, time warner, etc. I just have a had time believing that. There was a comcast truck parked out by the old house (which is literally in the same neighborhood) and I almost wanted to stop him and be like go look at my house and see that it exist and give me service. I want INTERNET. I am so behind on my youtube video subscriptions and I can't really do tumblr from my phone bc my service sucks. Boo.
Yeah...I am whiny today.
I'm done with today already.

Extreme Couponing
Man the weekend is already gone. What the hell!
But I did get a whole lot done Saturday. I got up w/ Jon and headed over to a stockpile sale. These ladies who do extreme couponing end up w/ over a houseful of crap so they sell it for really cheap. I got some good stuff and only spent $27.50.
After I finished that I came home and good thing I had bought the sweeper. Chance found a box of trash and ripped it open. And in that box was a ziploc w/ cornstarch. Damn dog. So, yeah, cleaned that. Then pretty much spent the rest of the day cleaning, unpacking, and organizing. The office is done (minus Jons box). The guest bedroom needs the bed on the frame and sheets and stuff on. Master bedroom and bath is almost done. Hall bath just needs the towels. When Jon got home, we picked up dinner and stopped by the liquor store and had an adult beverage before passing out on the couch.
Sunday I made a yummy brunch and then we ran some errands. We found out that the assholes stole everything from the old house that we had left. I knew it, I knew we couldn't even leave the few things we left there. I hate them so much. But anyways...we went to the grocery store and Dollar General where we finally got our trash can. We tried to sit and watch some tv but ended up napping for a few. I woke up and started working on the bedroom again until J woke up and had dinner. After dinner we were gonna play a game but realized how late it was so we just made lunches and then went to bed.
We have invited Barbara, Jon's Momma, to come over Sunday for dinner. Also will ask my mom and Pedro over for Saturday, maybe, if they are feeling better. My mom thinks she has the flu. Eww. So either way we need to finish up the house by Saturday. I will have as much done as possible during the days after work.
Well, its really quiet but I'm done for today.
Have a great Monday! :)

I Need a Blender, Yes Need.
Yippie its Friday! I am so looking forward to spending the whole weekend relaxing in the house. Well, mostly relaxing. We do need to finish up unpacking whats gonna be unpacked and getting all the boxes up or out. The guest bedroom needs to be set up and the office. Plus once everything is all unpacked and such I can start decorating. Wahoo. lol
Last night we did our walk thru paper work and started our list of things that need repair. And I called to put in the work order and was expecting an answering service or machine and I got Hooman. Hes the management rep guy and I have really been impressed w/ this company so far.
AHHHHH! I missed a sale!!! My life is over!! I need polo shirts for work, since we are going to a uniform. Well the other day I was just looking around different plus size websites and saw Lane Bryant had this awesome sale. I could get six panties and 3 polo's for $60 something dollars. I didnt order it right away, I wanted to talk to Jon first. Well, I remembered last night and went to order this morning. The sale was for one day only. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Boo. Damn it.
Kelli called me last night. She just wanted to talk and tell me she was 20 days sober. Going for her 30 day chip. She hasnt ever gotten that far before. I have a hard time w/ her bc I want to embrace her and reconnect w/ her and our friendship. But I am tired of being burned by her. Ugh. Idk. Everyone else (ie cousins) have "taken her back." Hmmm...
A new thing has happened since I have started losing weight. Or I should say something old is coming back. I freaking love to shop!! I have gone grocery shopping 2 days in a row and not even flinched at having to go. Oh shopping, how I have missed you. Sorry Jon :) Love you!!
Ok better wrap it up before it gets busy. TGIF.

Zzzzzz...
Yes. I did have gas. And one of the first things I did yesterday was a take a bath. This tub...oh...its not even just a standard jacuzzi or garden tub. Its freaking huge. I can sit comfortably like the wrong way in the tub...I dont know how to explain it. Ok this is the tub l_______l normally you lay/sit long ways. I can sit short ways and have room. IDK the point is this thing is huge and I am the happiest woman ever. So I laid in there and relaxed for who knows how long. Had some music on and just enjoyed the warm water.
After my bath I made dinner for the first time in our new house. I made homemade sweet and sour chicken. It was a long process but it was so good. We sat down and ate at the table w/ the TV off. Well...we had music on. It was a nice night.
Man. I am sleepy. I didnt get a nap yesterday. Boo. This sucks. I'm dozing off already...
Have a good day.

I Got Gas. Hopefully.
Nothing is really going on currently. We are just enjoying our new place. Cable came out yesterday. Gas comes today finally. I wanna take a bath, a hot bath, so bad. Yeah I took a cold one on Monday. Just enough to get clean. And the last thing we are waiting on is internet but they are being lame. Cant remember if I said this already or not but we have to wait 3-5 days and then they will call us, bc they dont recognize our house. Stupid.
My job is going to a uniform again. Or its gonna try, bc these dumb hoochie mama's that work here get confused on whats appropriate for work and the club. Khakis or slacks w/ collared polo shirts. Sigh. I had wearing collared shirts. The only reason I am not really upset is bc I can get my own shirts. We arent required to order thru the company like last time, that was a disaster.
OK well I just wanted to update since I missed yesterday.
Happy Hump Day! :)

The Big Move
Phew, what a long productive weekend.
Early in the week I had the foresight to see one of us should be off Friday, me since he cant just take a day off, and Friday was spent running around. We got the lease late Thursday night and so Friday I went up to Jons work where he printed it out. We (he) read it over and got all the deposits, signed everything and then I met our rep, the rep for the houses management comp and turned everything. Finally we have the KEYS!!! Yay!!! I am not gonna lie I literally sat in that empty place forever just feeling like this is it. This is what we have been waiting for basically since Jon and I realized we wanted to be together.
After sitting there, letting Chance sniff every square inch, I went to buy a washer and dryer. Stopped at this little used appliance type place. The guy there was a doucher and we went back and forth a few times over prices and machines. Finally we agree on 2 mix-match machines for $400 plus delivery/setup. He rings me up and quotes the total w/ tax as $270...I said What?! and he repeated himself w/ attitude. Hmm ok, fine $270 it is. So that was awesome.
Saturday morning I finish up packing, pick up my brothers, the uhaul and they pack up everything then head to the new place and they completely unloaded everything.
There was one pretty serious issue. We had the water turned on Friday. Well Saturday when we pulled up there was water pouring down the driveway, open the garage and the water heater is leaking. But we did get an emergency plumber to come out and he installed a brand new water heater. Wahoo.
We have even had our first guest. Jacob and Mikey, Jons friend and little boy, came over to see the place and hang for awhile. After they left, we did a little more unpacking, played a game of Life (Jon beat me) and watched some Big Bang before heading to bed for the night.
We are both so happy. It feels so great. Cant wait to get off so I can go home again, lol.
Have a great Monday everybody! :)
