Small Countries Beware!!!

Well, there hasn't been a post in a long time bc guess what?! Autumn hasn't had internet! I just spent 62 minutes and 58 seconds of my precious life trying to understand technilogical speak of someone with a very strong accent. I am about to invade small countries! all this over a game walk thru so my hubby can find all the things that he is missing on his game. i love my husband i love my husband i love my husband. AHHHHH!!!!

But anyways. June 5th is my wonderful husband's birthday. we were going to go to king's island but the people that we were going to go with kinda skipped out on us. Money issues. So we are probably going to have to find something else to do. big bummer for him. He was really looking forward to it. Maybe a nice dinner and a movie? IDK. Whatever he wants to do. It is his birthday. We may ask his mom if they want to combine our wedding dinner with his birthday dinner and take us to the melting pot that saturday. Again that is his choice though.

Called the vet and my poor little puppy who has 72 teeth will have to get half of them pulled. They said that it is common in small dogs. especially the extremes of the breed. Their puppy teeth dont fall out so their adult teeth just grow in behind them. They said that she puppy teeth can cause the adult teeth to rot so they have to be pulled. Poor baby. Our Corgi is going in for his shots and a physical. the poor thing was born in october and hasnt had anything. i know i know. we are bad pet owners! Hopefully everything will get straightened out on that front soon.

Other than that nothing is really going on at our house. Just day to day things. Vacuum, dishes, yell at puppies...

OH!!!! I did sell my african grey. I guess i forgot bc i have had like a week to get used to the idea. she is rather happy in her new home. She gets out every day and there are kids there. She is still trying to get used to that but Billie told me that she is up to letting the kids pet her. progress! Hopefully she will get used to it all very soon.

But yeah that is all. Until next time!

Hello all! Another exciting day in the life of the Lowe family. Not actually. Just sitting around with nothing to do. We are getting pretty excited about our plan for the renaissance festival this year. We are going two different times. Once with our friends the Whitecottons and then once with my grandparents. This was especially surprising. They hadn't shown any interest any of the other years that we went. I was actually asking them more as a joke, but low and behold grandpa said that he wanted to go. New things happen when one retires. We are also planning on going to king's island with sam and brandon. Camping trip with that one too. Much to my dismay they are dead set on attempting to get me on a roller coaster. I told them i can be a very good cheer leader but i was not heard. I forsee much medication needed. lol. sigh. Anyways. Easter was cool. a Little crazy cause we didnt know where all we needed to be until like the day of. we went to louise's for about an hour and then we were late getting to brent's grandmother's and we got an ear full over that. We were there for about another hour trying to beat the kids off with a stick. Not really. we would never hurt a stick like that. lol. Then we had a nice couple of rounds with sam and brandon of monopoly. It took 7 minutes to order a stupid pizza. we joked that we could have made one faster. The man that answered the phone really wasn't all that bright. Allwell. Jeremy came over to see the pictures that we hung up. that made me feel good. I wanted him to get to see them. Easter went well with only minimum yelling. Good enough for me. LOL.

Hello! Just thought i would write up some new stuff here. Kirk and I are doing well. We are patiently awaiting the arival of our tax refund check. I do believe there is a new TV in our future! Our puppies are doing well. Ragnar is losing his puppy teeth so he is chewing on anything that will fit in his mouth. However cute this is it wasn't very cute when he took off with my spool of thread this morning. *sigh* After a few hundred threats of crate and "bad dog" the well loved and thouroughly slobered thread was deposited in my favorite crocs. Needless to say i had to continue with a different thread. So is the life on Beech St. Kirk is working a 4 day weekend so I am running around like a chix with it's head cut off trying to find things to keep myself entertained. One can only play Wii Fit for so long. After that legs do tend to give out. With all this free time you would think that I have a remarkably clean house. Nope. Shoes everywehre. Dishes and Laundry to be done. Not that great of a house keeper. LOL. Much to the dissmay of my mother in law but we won't go into that again. Allwell. Gonna go for now. Have any ideas for things to do let me know!

oops!

Wow! way too long since i have posted on here. lol. just goes to show how long its been since i have been to grandma's with a computer! well I have started violin lessons and those are going well. The man that is teaching me is from grandparents church so naturally the only songs i know so far are church songs besides twinkle twinkle little star. amazing grace and a spotty and squeaky ill fly away. I'm really liking it though. i just got a nice full size violin. This will be my fist week taking it. Its really fun. well i think it is. Kirk doesn't wanna sit through a lesson with me though. lol. guess he doesn't like to listen to me squeak. Paul is teaching me to play by ear. He plays something and kinda tells me how to do it..."first finger, third finger...second string...no no i said second string" and then i play it and then we go onto the next thing. Its fun and challenging. Every monday at 5pm. He is very patient wich is good bc im not very patient with myself. I get frustrated when my brain knows what to do but somehow it doesnt quite get down to my fingers.

Aunt Stephie has her surgery thursday and 10am. a wicked hour to be doing anything let alone letting people cut on you. this is one of those surgeries that i dont know how to spell. One of the ones that make peole lose weight bc they pretty much dont have a stomach anymore. Hopefully this will help her with the other problem that i cant spell with her knees and her ankles and the really bad pain. I'm thinking about how im going to get up there. kirk works thursday. so he cant take me. grandparents are leaving at 7am but if i go with them i would have to pressure them to be back in time for me to get kirk up for work. that would be bad. i dont wanna have to make them come back before they are ready. Kirk and i may just have to go up on the weekend. I hope she understands. i dont want to over whelm her with people on a day when she is probably going to be stressed anyways. 

Anyways so i have taken up yet another hobby. Flowers! it all started with this $1 little green shrub looking thing at wal mart that didnt look like it could be easily killed. I'm always looking for ways to make the house look better since i dont want to put anything into the lot that we would have to leave when we left. So i bring it home water it and stick it in my kitchen window....and forget about it. About a week later i remember and check on it and it's this pretty pink flower thing! Lo and behold i had picked up a hyacinth. It is still doing well and now has three other window mates. All of them hyacinths. I now have 1 pink, 2 blue and 1 white. They are all doing well. Only the pink one has bloomed to date but i am looking forward to the other ones. Especially the blue.

Saturday March 21, 2009 i fell in love. Kirk and i were at wal mart and for once the had a wii fit. Kirk and i debated for a while as i was wanting "Twilight" since it had just come out on dvd that day. He said i could have one or the other. Where's the fun in that? I decided to go with the wii fit hoping that maybe at the least it would be something new to do and at the most that it will help me lose some weight that lovely birth control and an addiction to pizza rolls has put on. Well im over at my friend sam's and her husband and i start playing with this thing and i just cant quit! its so much fun! Who would have thought that a 280 lb person would be saying that exercise is fun?! well currently i am regretting the hours of hula hooping and running in place and balancing board activities as my calves are mutinying my every movement. lol. i will get it all worked out soon though. 

Anyways. Kirk and i are thinking of going to Richmond so im gonna go now. Bye!

"Leave out all the Rest"

By: Linkin Park

I Dreamed I was Missing

You Were so Scared

But No one Would Listen

'Cause No one Else Cared

After my Dreaming

I Woke with this Fear

What am I Leaving

When I'm Done Here?

So if You're Asking me I Want You to Know

When My Times Comes

Forget the Wrong that I've Done

Help me Leave Behind Some

Reasons to be Missed

Don't Resent me

And When You're Feeling Empty

Keep me in Your Memory

Leave out all the Rest

Leave out all the Rest

Don't be Afraid

I've taken my Beating

I've Shed What I've Made

I'm Strong on the Surface

Not All the Way Through

I've Never Been Perfect

But Neither Have You

So if You're Asking Me, I Want You to Know

When My Time Comes

Forget the Wrong that I've Done

Help me Leave Behind Some

Reasons to be Missed

Don't Resent me and When You're Feeling Empty

Keep me in Your Memory

Leave out all the Rest

Leave out all the Rest

Forgetting all the Hurt Inside You've

Learned to Hide so Well

Pretending Someone else Can Come and Save me from Myself

I Can't be Who You Are

When my Time Comes

Forget the Wrong that I've Done

Help me Leave Behind Some

Reasons to be Missed

And Don't Resent me and when You're Feeling Empty

Keep me in Your Memory

Leave out all the Rest

leave out all the Rest

Forgetting all the Hurt Inside You've Learned to Hide so Well

Pretending Someone else can Come and Save me from Myself

I can't be Who You Are

I can't be Who You Are

Venting

Hello! well i am over at my grandmothers trying to help her sort out her prescription medicine. Why does this have to be so difficult? She was on hold for an hour yesterday trying to get a hold of someone to talk to to figure out why she is not recieving her medicine by mail. Well i would think that people would not make getting medicine so difficult! People need their medicine. She can't just go to the store and pick it up. The insurance requires her to recieve it by mail or they will charge her more. That is reduculous considering that they are now closing down their mail service! I don't know. How is anyone supposed to get anything finished when there isn't anyone to talk to?

Here it comes...

*music plays* Let me apologise to begine with....Let me apologise for what I'm about to say...

Well, when my uncle first told my grandmother that I had a blog, she wanted to know if I had written anything bad. Sorry grandma but here comes the bad things.

I lost my phone over the holidays. Definitely not a good way to start out the new year. This is the first time I have lost a phone ever. My thinking is that I didn't take the time to get ready to leave properly. Just in case anyone is curious as to why I needed to leave my uncle's in such a hurry, keep reading.

My new mother in law, Julie, has had a new baby with her new husband and they dedicated him sunday. This is all well and good except for the fact that frequently Julie or Brent can be seen doing very non-christian things and they don't make an attempt to go to church and i ffrequently recieve penis shaped snow ball shooters in video and text messages. This doesn't bother me if it weren't for the fact that they were pressuring Kirk into attending for something that was completely and entirely a show. Nothing more. I don't think they ment it. Just a show. So i was rushed out of my favorite uncle's house at 2am to make it back to connersville before the "ceremony" at 10:30am. that is my complaint for a while. It was stupid in my eyes but i seem to be the only one that thinks that so I'm not saying anything after what is posted here.

Anyways since i lost my old phone i got a new one today. woohoo for insurance! Its purple and beautiful and works better than my old one. My uncle says that now we will find my old phone just laying around somewhere. Allwell. It was dieing anyways.

Kirk and I are sitting over at grandma's. We just ate all of her carrots and will probably be going to get her more here in a little bit. It's nice being here and not be chasing the internet all over the house trying to get a signal from the neighbors. But all well.

I'm gonna go. Getting tired. Gotta get home and Kirk is bored. LOL.
