Rain

I really do love the rain. I know most people will think I’m crazy but there is nothing I love more than watching a thunderstorm just on the brink of tornado. There is something soothing to me about gusty winds, pouring hard rain on the rooftops, bright flashes of light and house shaking rumbles of thunder. When I was a kid I remember my papa would sit out on the front porch and watch it storm. That is probably why I love storms so much, because it’s a memory of him. People think I'm crazy but one of these days I want to go on a storm chase. You know, where you chase down and follow tornados. I figure that is really the safest way to see one. I mean you are with professional people who know what they are doing, know what they are looking for and know what distance is safe. My husband on the other hand hates them. If there is even the hint of a storm he has the weather channel on and God forbid if there is one at night. He is up all night just listening and pacing the floor while I am sound asleep.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the sunshine and warm weather too but nothing is more calming that a good old storm.

My Awesome Weekend

I had the absolute best weekend! Friday me, Melissa and Beth went to see New Kids on the Block. It was freaking awesome! We were sitting in the first section right off the floor with a perfect view of the stage. We were also about 50 feet from the stage B area where they come out and do a couple of songs. We screamed, we danced, we sang and we stood for 3hours. We had such a great time we are going to see them again in June down in Cincinnati. Then after the concert we decided to meet up with one of Beth's friends close to the arena. As we were driving over we decided to check and see if the tour buses were still there. We drove back over to the arena and they were with a ton of people still there. We pulled over to the side of the road to let a semi pass me so I could turn around and behind that was a hummer limo. We heard all these girls screaming at it so I figured one of the guys was in the limo. I whip my car around and start following it just to see where it went and if anyone was actually in it. Well low and behold we end up at the Sugar Bar, and who should get out of the limo but Donnie Whalburge. So I park the car and we head over to the bar. It was so stinking cool. When we first got in it was so crowded you couldn't even move but then as people filtered out it was better. We were standing right by the little dancing girly stage in front of the VIP section and were like 10 feet from where Donnie was sitting. He even got up on stage and greeted everyone. We finally headed home about 1:30am. Then Saturday and Sunday we spent the whole day with my niece. It was so much fun and she is so big. She is spending three weeks with the in-laws so we will get to see a lot of her. I'm very excited!

Spring has Sprung

I am so glad warm weather is finally here. I finally get to pull out my shorts and Capri's and pack away the bulky sweaters. I can wear flip flops and open toe shoes and shove the stockings to the back of the closet. I can eat my lunch out side and get my daily dose of viatamen D. And most of all i don't have to look pasty white anymore. The only down side is i will have to start shaving my legs more than once a week. I am looking forward to going on walks with my husband in the evenings and watching the sun set and i get to start thinking about what i want to plant n my garden this year. i hope spring stays around for along time!

Pet Peeves

Let me just say people really irritate me. It usually starts off every morning when I am on my way to work. I really wish I had a vaporizing gun on the front of my car so i can just eliminate the fool in front of me who can't seem to find the gas peddle. Then I get to work and have to deal with stupid people who call because someone out of this office called their number. Do they wait for a voicemail to see who it actually was? NO! This is the conversation I have at least 15 times a day

Idiot: Yes, this is (Idiot), someone just called me.
Me: OK, Do you have an account with us or are you working with one of our loan officers?
Idiot: No
Me: OK, well I'm not sure who called you. Anyone who calls out of this office comes up as the main number.
Idiot: OK, maybe I should check to see if they left a voicemail with there name and then call back.
Me: Yes that would probably be a good Idea so I know who to transfer you too.
Idiot: OK, ill do that and call back

I mean come on, listen to your voicemail before you call me and waist my time. I have way to much to do to tell you to do that. Use some common sense.

I have to deal with the people who call in for someone and when they don't answer ring back to let me know they got their voicemail. I then have to explain to them that means they are either not here or on their phone. Then they want to go back into their voicemail so they can leave a message. Now if they would have just done that to begin with life would have been so much easier.

Hey All

I know it’s been forever since the last time I posted. Things have calmed down a bit at work but its still busy. They got rid of the girl who had been answering the phones due to some breech of security at another location buy a different temp. That sucked because I had to go back to answering the phones. O’well, can’t complain though, I could not have a job at all. I did get to go to Florida a couple of weeks ago with Melissa to see my mom and brother. We had a great relaxing time. I wish it could have been longer but the break was refreshing. I even got sunburned. My brother is coming to see me on Thursday. I am very excited about that too. I’m not sure what all we are going to do but it will be fun anyway. Well, got to get these folders ready.

This Time Next Week..

I will be in the air on my way to Florida! I am so very excited. We have lots of stuff planned for the few days we are there. We are going to the beach, going shopping on friday and to the Ren Festivle on Saturday. My mom is going to cook and we are going to have a game night on Saturday night. I so need this vacation. We may need to do this every year! Im happy though that husband will be occupied. His friend is going to come down that weekend and go to the hockey and basketball game. I went out yesterday and bought this cute little "Miss You" card that I am going to mail on Wednesday before I leave so he will get it like Friday or Saturday. Well, back to work!
