Midterms = stress



Its midterms week alread!!! Well the good news is that I survived this long and I kept on track of all my work. Bad news is that I have 3 papers due this week. Oy and it all has to be done before I leave for Las Vegas on Sunday. So this weekend no going out, I am hunkering down (is that the right word?) and writing, writing, and more writing. The Hubby and I have been prepping for the trip this whole week. Things for the dogs as they are off visiting their aunty Samantha in Colorado Springs. I got them more food, spray for her house in case of accidents, tupperware for their treats, and food bowls. I gotta make sure the kids are taken care of lol.

This will be the first time my littlest one (Louis) is experiancing his Mama being away. When we first got him he spent two days at grandma's but he didn't know much than. Now he's aware when I leave the room and has to follow lol! He's a mama's boy and its by his nature, male yorkies are much more affectionate than the females. And well Biscuit (the older one) she has been through it all as I left her for two weeks when I went to Vietnam. Although she was not happy the entire time I was gone. She even rebelled lmao! My dogs are like little people. I know people say like don't get too attached as they are just pets but I can't help it. They have their own personalities, they get jealous, they need attention, they have their own quirks lol. Louis brave at the doctors office while Biscuit shakes and sheds like crazy. He's shy and she's outgoing. If you visit our home she'll share and show and tell all her toys for you while he hides behind his mama. I love them so much and I already know I'm going to miss them this weekend....probably why I've been semi-spoiling them hahahaha.

The beer tours on Tuesday were soooo much fun.
Went to the Coors brewery and that was great. Tasted the freshest Coors beer you'll ever have. Tasted a lot like Bud light to me but I am no beer coniseuir. Than it was off to Ft.Collins for New Belgium Brewery and the O'Dells Brewery. Both were good but I've already had their beers lol! I am not a beer gal at all, at Coors they had these flavored Zimas like pineapple citrus Zima...yum! I lost my tolerance for alchohol....got buzzed off of two zima's how SAD is that. Oh well cheaper for me to get drunk whoohoo!

Photos from the tours will be posted later, first to-do homework yo!

A great weekend



I can't believe the weekend is over already! It went by so fast. The weekend was productive, fun, and relaxing. That probably is the best kind of weekend ever.

Friday night was the Nuggets vs Spurs game. Our first NBA game ever and boy was it fun. Time went by so fast during that three hour game. It was a nationally televised game and it was packed! I loved every minute of it.



Our best friends above are Mike and Valerie. One of the funnest couples you'll ever meet. They are the ones we are traveling with next weekend to Las Vegas! We're gonna be OUTTA control. It will be so much fun :)

I got homework out of the way earlier than I normally did and I've been preparing myself for midterms. I love when I am proactive with my school work because I've been known to procrastinate. Later this week I'll be going shopping for the remainder of must haves for the trip. I've been looking foward to this trip so much I know that it will go by so fast :( No wait positive thoughts!!! I am going to enjoy my last week of no working.

Tuesday I'll be going with Mike and Val to the brewery tours. The Coors factory in Golden and than the breweries in Ft.Collins like New Belgium, and something else...Budweiser unfortunately is closed. Oh well. It will be lots of fun, beer all day long lol :)

Up in the air



Well my second interview tomorrow....its all up in the air. My retirement time may be coming to an end. Pooh I knew it couldnt last forever but I didn't think it would be so soon. But who knows what the future holds. I look foward though to the good things like our End of Summer vacation to the Bahamas and Florida including a four day cruise! Must work and save money :)

Needed:

Greeeatt so hopefully I will be proactive and finish and complete midterms before I leave for Vegas!

SimplyJenn


The official SimplyJenn blog. A combination of Livejournal, MySpace, and Melo all jam packed into one centralized location. Why are there so many blogging tools and why am I on all of them. Oh yeah the networking of friends. LJ is where I've kept the longest running blog and I've made fantastic friends on it and it will probably be a forever or till all my friends there leave sort of situation. MySpace well everyone and their mama's are on there so its hard to be discrete in any way shape or form. One false move there and someones gonna tell your momma what you said. Melo well I'm there for one person only. My bff Valerie. She refuses to blog anywhere else so I followed her there lol! I love her so its worth it, that and no one else I know in real life blogs there so its like a safety net of no personal judgement you know. And blogspot, well this is a free for all isn't it. I can't track who views me, I cant really set privacy settings, so guess what STALK me here its all good.

Really though I created this account because some of my favorite blog reads are on blogger.com and I've become such a fan :) You'll see.

Stay tuned for more on ME!
