Slip and Slide

We turned the floor in my kitchen into a slip and slide. first we were cleaning the floor but then it turned into a slipping and sliding palooza! Talk about a blast!
Check out Joh, Jazzi and i as we slip and slide across my floor!

Jazzi is Jazzi lol

Well it has now been a week since we got Jazz and I muct say what a week it has been. We took a trip to mom and Dad's house and she got to play with her new cousin Leai and was doing SO incredible with her potty training. She would wake Nick and I up at like two, and four and five o'clock in the morning but she was waking us up this was very very good! We came back on Tuesday night and when we headed to bed we did the normal with Jazmine we took her outside and let her pee and then we went to bed. Well Jazzi slept threw the night but I guess she did not want to wake her sleeping mommy and daddy because we woke up the next day at eight and had not been interupted in the sleeping so we thougt this must be really good. until I put my glasses on. There was a pile of poop and a pee stain and so she got her butt smacked and I calmed nick by telling him that she was a baby and that she would have her accidents. The day went by Jazzi did great. Next night the routine and a sleeping puppy. The next moring ANOUTHER MESS!!! I was getting irritated because she clearly knew she was doing wrong but I again calmed nick and we went about the day well I bet you can guess how this story ends it has now been a week since we got back from Bailey and I still wake up to this god awful smell and this morning it was on my letter Jacket! (Yeah yeah dont leave it on the floor) All in all Jazzi is such a great dog. She is so sweet and cuddly and is just a blast to play with. She knows Sit Lay and Shake perfect and is getting the hang of stay and come but is still thinking I am nuts when I go into Roll over lol. She is very smart she is just driving me nuts with this night time thing. i try waking up by alarm every couple hours in the night but i still get the mess!!! What is going on here???? help ANYONE!!!!

It beggining to look alot like Christmas

Yes yes I know it is only November but I dont give a hoot. Grandma and Grandad are coming tomorrow to see the house and I am so excited. So yesterday when I made $150.00 at work for a friday night!! (HELLS YEAH) I went with nick and paul out to walmart and we bought so much christmas stuff. Lights and light up trees and light up snow men and there are four of those (like how many room mates there are) and more lights and a "Santa Stop here" sign and just everything. So at midnight in the 29 degree weather (we have a thermometer attached to the side of the house so yes I know it was 29 degrees) we started hanging christmas lights. Isicles hang from the roof and colors light up the deck. Little christmas trees fill our yard glowing in all their glory and four little snowmen are chillign happily in the yard. (I will try to snap a picture tonight and post it for you all) It is incredible. At three AM we finished up and headed to the street to admire all of our work and happily we only ran into one broken connection solved by an extra extention cord. It was perfect. My first house on my first christmas on my own looks amazing. When we came inside Paul made some INCREDIBLE homemade hot chocolate and we all sat on the couch just lookign out the window. It was perfect. Thank you honey and Thank you paul. I never ever thought I would say it but Paul you are like the best roommate I could have ever asked for and thanks for that. You are becoming a great friend and I am happy to say we only "hate" each other a little and it goes away a little every day lol. Honey you are the best and i am so grateful to have you in my life. I have the best man ever to stand by my side. So Merry Christmas all and welcome to the Holiday season!

well well long time ago....in a town not so far away...=)

hey all wow it has been a while a long while lol. Well I guess just start from the last time we spoke, on friday i headed home for seans speech meet and at 1 am a tired sissy crawled into bed with a sleeping mommy and after an hour of neither of us being able to shut up the two closed their eyes and fell into never never dream land. the next morning came all too quicly wheen mom and i awoke to the smll of coffee and a very very annoying alarm clock. I crawled out of bd only to find mom's lovely animals had decided it would be best if they marked thir territory all over my clothes. SO frustrated sissy went shopping in moms closet. The meet was so great and i loved judging! the kids were all so great and it ended up being so hard to pick but i did and after seeing brooke and playing a game of pony and the awards and a hg to mama barth I headed off. that is back to my mommys bed were we spent anouther night in chit chat land loving every minute of it! It was incredible to gt to do that. I loved it mom thanks for sharing ur bed with me. Sunday we slept in ys ladis and gentlmen you heard it here first Sue mueller dared to sleep till 9 o clock on a sunday morning!!! dun dun dun! she needed it though so i dared not to wake her and i slept in too. At noon we headed to mels baby shower. it was a blast we played games and ate incredible food and i presented little baby boy with a hand made blanket. YAH ME!!! So sunday ended with my daddy coming home!!! Well due to this it was back to the couch for me. I didnt mind it was great to see dad and mom and i had two nights of girly time. Monday I awoke to Sean saying opps I missed the bus and after some simple persuassion (i didnt want to wake up to take him) mom let sean ditch school and have a sissy sean day. We wnt to town and saw a really good movie and ended the night with ...um...political campaining. =) we had a blast and it was wonderful to spend a whole day with my lil bro!!! Tuesday brought anouther observation day and so off to PCHS I went and i got to spend some one on one time with my mentor mr. miller and it was so great!!! Wednesday was my last day at home and so a sad sissy set off on her two hour journey to Greeley to head home sweet home.
Thursday brought work as did friday and after work on friday me and nick and kat and paul and tabby and percilla and liz and hannah and drew and well lets just say a bunch of people from work headed over to the only place open when we all get off work on a friday night... Old Chicago. We ate some wings and played pool until like 2 in the morning and it was a blast hanging out with friend and dancing and just being in college. it was great. and at 2:30 am a very sleepy sissy curled up next to her honey and fell fast asleep in his arms. Saturday we had a freeze storm and everythiing was soooooo cold but work must go on so by 4 me and nick and kat were back in our aprons to head to work. I was starting to get the applified verson of what i thought was just something ba i ate but i went to work and was able to shak of my nausa. Sunday i woke up bright and early headed to work only to find I still felt like crap and it was getting worse. I had two tables that morning and one of them was just th sweetest. It was the grandmas 75th birthday and next week her and her husband would celebrate 50 years marriage. sothey invited to red lobster to celebrate their daughter their son in law and there two granddaughters one of which was marrid so hr hubby was there too. Whn I brought the drinks to the table i saw the grandmother sitting with a card in her hand balling, i assumed it was all th emotions of all the events being celebrated today until i saw the mom also crying her eyes out the mom turned to me and said, "I am gonna be a grandma!" and the grandma through her tears sqeezd out "Im gonna be a great grandma" I cant explain the feelings that rushed through my body but i was honored to be a part of this families life even for a moment in the memory. They ended up giviing me a peice of cake and a fourty dollar tip but the best part was the huug i got from the grandma now great grandma as she left the resturant and she whispred into my ear, "Im so happy for the fact that we had a waitress like you to share this with" It was so sweet I hugged her and went into the back were i cryed for the whole thing i think i got swept up in the moment but whatever i will never forget this family and hope to see them again soon.
Finally Monday today monday I went to class and on the way home decided for the sake of being causious I would make a dr appointment to see why i was sick. I went to the doctor where they ran tests and an ultra sound and before anyone freaks NO I AM NOT HAVING A BABY! I have better news from the doctor...I have a stomach ulsar! they put me on a specail diet and i have to be on it for two weeks if it does not get better I have to go back for medication. weeeee! Well anyway so after that i went to the store and got all the stuff i am allowed to eat for the next two weeks and then after Kat got off work WE CARVED PUMPKINNS!!! Yeah! Well tomorrow I am going in to early vote and then i dont know but whatever for now I am going to bed. So a very tired sissy is going to bed to lay next to her hony cuddle up with him and slip into dream land. Night all
love you

Alot better

So let me start with saying Im sorry for the mental breakdown I guess it neeeded to happen but I feel MUCHHHHH better. So anyway since that whole ordeal I have been Busy Busy Sissy!!! I started my new job at Red Lobster and I do love it. Due to my great people skills, and quick learning I was advanced to on my own serving by Tuesday. So on Tuesday I ventured out to the floor on my own and did really well, Thursday brought a double as did friday as did saturday and you guessed it as did Sunday. I wont complain though the one week I worked brought me roughly $500. So GO ME!!! The very sad point of this is because I am good at serving my boss wants me on her staff and hers only she wants me every night I can and the afternoons I can. After serious debate I put my two weeks notice in at Chilis. This is so hard for me and I know it will be so hard for me to continue to do for the next couple months but Brinker/ Chilis offered me my first real home in a job and I thank them for that but I have to do what I have to do to get the bills paid. So after St. Jude ends on the 1st as does my Chilis Career. Very sad sad day... So I turned in my new avalibility to the lobster and I now will be working Tuesday 11-3 Wednesday about 5- cut Thursday all day (with the break in between for my thurday class Friday nights Saturday all day, and Sunday all day WHEW!!! Also strating for me is my student teaching. My EDU class introduced our class to the big world of teaching early. So on Sunday after I got off work I drove up to Bailey to do my first day. I was with the kids of Joh's 2nd grade class from 9 AM to 3:30 PM and I have to admit after I did that I remembered why I set my goals to a HS teacher. =) So now I have decided to spend one last night in Bailey with my family before I head home sweet home tommorrow morning to you guessed it... work and then go to class at 4:30 and then do some homework until ten and then probably die on my couch to get up on wednesday and do it all over. Why is it I find myself the happiest when I have no time to stop going? I dont know myabe it is just the taste of home I need to keep me happy. love to all
J
oh yeah and before you all flip I do take mondays off of everything but school to do homework chill and of course tune into One Tree Hill.

Having a really hard time

So i ahve to admit the last couple weeks have ben so hard for me and before anyone jumps on the gun no I am not here for a pitty party but i need to vent and this is my blog so if you dont want to hear me complain a little change blogs. Soryy but I have had a really hard time with it all. I have been feeling so left out. I have my friends and all but I started school and I work two jobs and when I am home I am so tired I cant do anything. What I would not give to see my mom at home talking to me while I do my homwork or have anyone here/awake when I get hom from school. I then find out that my brother is doing incredible. he is working two jobs pulling strait A's and kicking butt at Ty Kwan Do my mom tells me this all I figure okay he sounds busy its cool he hasnt told me anything but when I go to brag a little to Kat bout it she tells me she alrady knows h textd her to tell her. I know it sounds dumb but I realllllly cant explain how much I realllllllly miss sean. He is my brother and I love him so much and i didnt understand why he could pick up his phone to tell Kat but couldnt do the same to me. I find out he had someone at work tell him something vry hurtful but instead of telling me or asking my help he txt Kat to get help call me insane but I feel so replaced, i feel like because Kat got to spend some extra time with my family they are closer to her. I know I know it sounds dumb but again I need to vent and I wont do it on Nick anymore, he dosnt dserve it and he at this point does not know how to help.
I heard from my mom for the first time in ages today and not because she wanted to talk or missed me but because I dented her car a little and called to confess it to her. I keep up with my family via her blog and she doesnt keep that up much anymore. And I went on today and found out that my WHOLE family was a mere ten exits down I25 from me and had a family night but didnt even call me to see what I was doing and if I could make it. I feel so lft out like just because I dont live there anymore I dont get to be in the family anymore.
i guess I have had a bad week and it is only monday. I missed a meeting at Chilis and got written up, I fell in my bathroom and hit my eye and now have a beautiful black eye. I missed my alam this morning and slpt through class and I have like a zillion bills due like tomorrow. I may just be venting but I needed it.
Thnaks Jacquie

Making new friends and Having a blast

Well Friday night just happened and it was a blast. in attempts to get back to a social butterfly I have been making friends with some of my Co-workers. Well driving home from work the other night I saw a big sign it read "Community night...July 18 at 7 pm Chris Daniels and the Kings" Well That was it for me i was off on friday night and mom and Dad constintly have told me how much Chris Daniels Rocks so without hesitation I went to work. I texted Myriah, Guber, Kyle, Danielle, Mark and Tyler We had to go to this it would be a blast! None of them had ever heard of it but Myriah Jumped right on it she brought along two friends, to my sadness though Danielle was in Denver with her Family, Mark and Tyler had to work and Guber had plans with his girlfriend. Kyle just never texted back. So After alot of talking i had Tyler convinced after work he would come to my place and we would have a BBQ with everyone. Well as the night weared on the concert was AMAZING! (mom you were so right I LOVE THEM!) We played Frisbee and danced and just had a blast. i texted nick at work and warned him people were coming back to the house and we were having a BBQ! So Myriah and Jessica came back to the house with me and we turned on music and had a blast. Tyler called at like 10 and he sadly forgot he had plans with anouther friend but to count him in on the next fun time. I will hold you to that! So Nick got home we ate Chicken and watermelon and it was so much fun we sat on the back porch for hours laughing and talking and when the sprinklers came on we moved inside and by 2 AM i said goodbye to myraih and jessica and headed to bed. it is so nice meeting all of these new poeple! I love you all and I am so glad to meet you all and have you in my circle of friends. Thank you to Tyler and Mark, While Nick and I are on Vacation Sean is coming to the house to house watch for us and Tyler and Mark so kindly gave up there phone numbers just in case Sean needs ANYTHING! Thank you guys you took that weight off my shoulders! You are the Best!

AH how do I live without internet!

Well As you can probably tell with the very speradic posts my new home was not finished with internet or a computer so I am here at UNC and using the library to get my fix of technology! Where do I start?!?!? Well I guess I would start with MY MOM VISTED ME!!! I was so excited at June 28th came that my mom and to my happy suprises my Kat (my best freind who I missssssss soooo much!) Came to the house and we enjoyed that! Mom waled in the house before I was back from grocery shopping greeted by nick and waiting patently to see the rest of the house. She has the pics and hopefully soon the post to tell you more. I however dont have the time to type up the whole day lol. In a nutshell the day began with a BBQ and ended with a walk and cake and sitting on the back porch just enjoying the talking time. Then After that Monday the first came where I began my first day as a Qudoba girl as well. My boss told me that he was impressed and could not believe it was my first day. That began what I call the "OMG Im tired" Schedule. For that week I woke up at 5 am to be at Qudoba at 6 am to open at 7am got off at 4 pm and was on the clock at Chilis at 5 pm to close them up at about 11 pm. (Im pooped) now I have begun the kinda boring but more sleep thing where a day off is not in my furture a couple of doubles are but for the most part it is one day chilis one day Qudoba ect so on and so on. That Wednesdat after work I went home to see mom and dad and Kat and Joh and Sean and to my suprise and happiness Joh joh came home with me for a joh joh sissy day. We had so much fun on thursday we just worked in the house went to the park and played and all that good stuff. After that we went to Bingo where joh ALMOST (by one square that came up in the screen right after someone called bingo) won. We will get them next time Bubah. After all that it was night night time but not before a bunch of fireworks went off and joh had to watch them of course! Oh Yeah and the most exciting thing was on Thursday Joh lost a tooth and Sissy got to play TF!! That was so exciting for me! Friday brought Fourth of july fun and games Joh insited on going to Dollar tree and spending the dollar tooth fairy left him so we did then we baked a cake to take home for the fourth and by three we were out the door heading back to mom and dad. By Saturday night I drug my flatlander butt home and settled into the kitchen to cook my honey dinner. Sunday I awoke to work at Qudoba and ended up doing chilis too (whew!) This week I am proud to report has been calm cleaning cooking workinig and a little fun. We bought a cat harness for the Kitten and are leash training her it is so funny you dont even know! i will have to post pics of that ASAP. It is great! We got word from Aunt Lindz yesterday that my birthday trip to NC is all planned and I AM so excited to go! 19 days and counting! Which means I have to find my way home agian soon to get my suitcase. Um for now I think you are all caught up. I have a few more things to do but then I have to go home and get ready for work. Ahhh I am really loving this college thing and that is NOT saracsam! i really really am!

Very excited!

well as my life in Evans keeps coming more and more together I am getting better and better with not missing home and not being so sad when I cant talk to mom as much as I want and now i am so excited because I have even my social and school schedule coming along. as of last Thursday I have a class schedule and I am regestered for those classes! I am taking English, math (BOOOOOOO!!!!), US histroy 2, Intro to college how to be the student you can (actually very cool class Im excited) and Intro to education (my first class toward becoming a teacher!) Then I also Have my work schedule down and now that i am settled in at Chilis it seems I will be making a third home of Qudoba! Where I just got my 2nd job! the manager was confident in saying he thinks I will be a manager within the month (making ALOT more) and that makes me very proud too. Mom and I dont know who else is FINALLY coming to the house on saturday sending me into a wirlwind of joy! I truly cant wait for her to really see the Big girl i am ! well nick and I have to go and get a mailbox today and register as Weld county voters. Within the next 8 weeks (a little less but overshooting never hurts) i will legally become Jacqueline Rose-Mary mueller and that makes me so far beyond excited and I am SO proud and pleased to soon be wearing the mueller name in everything I do! Someday NOT FOR A LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG time i guess i Will give that name up too however i regret to tell you I will have remorse giving up my Mueller name and Am counting the days until i can give up the name Jacqueline Joan Twogood! well I got to run but I will try to update more often.
Always remember to Laugh once an hour it is good for your health! =) luvs,
the college student in Greeley okay Evans Whatever it smells like cow EVERYWHERE!

Its not a house...Its my home!

So It has now been almost two weeks since we moved into our house and it all is becoing alot better. I stopped being sad about not being by my mom and dad and started looking for what I could do to make this place not a house, but a home. I started with the living room, Kat and I had long since decorated it but something was not right. I unpacked more boxes and found my oil burner from Ali & Emmy and then found pictures and books and all sorts of things okay this was a start I went through and put them up made pictures lione the walls and photos were framed und went up on the blank walls by the time my first day was done the Living room and the kitchen were feeling great over the next couple of days I did the downstairs living room and the halls through the rest of the house cleaned my bathroom and created a very pretty family wall. Yesterday I woke up in a cleaning fit and set to cleaning. My pride of the day yesterday was the Guest room. I set up the bed frame and the tables then decorated the tables with a lamp and a plant , candles and a clock and then Kat and I decided that it would be seashell room. We took a bag of seashells and nicely spread them out and made it perfect the only thing we are missing is a picture of the beach which I will have to dig through and find one of Emerald Isle and It will be the perfect guest room! As I walked to the kitchen this morning I went to let Bruno out for his morning pee Nick already out and about doing Laundry. I made a cup of coffee and did the few dishes in the sink. I walked around to the couch and sat to drink my coffee the phone rang and I answered and as I was done with my morning routine I looked around had to think okay now it is not a house Its my home! Yeah I actually feel at home!

"Okay now I feel like a college student"

So today was nice it was hot and so we went to the pool but the simple favorite part of the day was the time of the "dumpster dive" We decided that we wanted pizza for dinner. Nick had saced some cupons from the paper and it was for pizza provlem was that they fell right in the middle of Kats cleaning spree so she threw them all away. Nick and I came into the house looking for them they were long gone in the bottom of a trash bag in our dumpster. Nick still determined to get the best deal on the dinner went out to go and get the trash bags he began just digging in one and then when he had no sucess he grabbed his gloves and went into the dumpster once again. I walked out to the garage to find nick standing there half the reash on the floor and cupoms for the pizza in his hand. I began laughing so hard when he looked at me and said "What is so funny?" I continued to laugh and then looked at him and said "Okay now i feel like a college Student." He looked at his hand then at me then at the floor of the garage and began laughing as well. "Yeah I guess dumpster diving for cupons is kinda college kids huh?" We went together laughing into the house. We ordered the pizza and it was good and guess what it was cheap....Ahh the life of a college kid I guess I will have to get used to the trash digging. lol

making it a home

As you all have probably read from moms blog I have offically moved out! On Sunday We went and got the truck and since they were unable to get us a 15 foot truck so we recieved a 24 foot truck. Thank goodness! there is no way that we would have ever made everything fit into a 15 footer. nick took the keys in his hand with his fear there but his confidence bigger he drove the truck with great ease. We first drove to Gary's house (he is a state trooper that gave us a lot of furniture) then we drove to kats for the last of the things donated by her family. Then to Todd and Lisa's for our new couch! Thank you so much Lise it looks SOOOO amazing I love it! Then to Pauls for the few things from him and then after alllllll of that we headed to my house for alllllllll of my stuff! There was alot of it. after it was all packed up i got Bruno and mom snapped some pictures. I gave hugs and loves to everyone and then we packed into all the cars. Mom began to tear and I began biting my lip trying not to. i gave a few more hugs and then we were off. Looking out the window I see mom in Daddys Arms crying and I lost it all. The tears stream down my eyes and I wipe them trying not to let it show. As I start to drive off I had to decide if it truly was safe for me to be driving with all the tears streaming down my face. After I was okay i went to go get Kat and after some Kat stops we were on the road. we got to the house and began to unpack which I regret to say is no where near done but I am trying so hard because I think my parents are coming to see the house this weekend and I want it to look nice! The first night was tough. After some dinner Of pork chops and Potato skins nick went to go do some laundry and I started to unpack our room. Bruno Being very un used to the heat of greeley, CO got over heated and very sick and we spent all night up with him. by this morning I got dressed to go meet my new boss at my new Chilis in loveland. Jeff was very very nice and i think I will love it there too. Although i cryed over leaving my first Chilis family and I do miss them alot i feel i can feel right at home here too soon. I then took advantage of my very cute and very mature interveiw outfit and ventured out to find a second job. I am really hoping that I get the waitress job at IHOP. Fingers crossed!!! After getting back from my interveiw I changed into some unpacking clothes and noticed bru was still very hot and after calling some groomers none would take him without a Rabis shot. So after a tearful phone call to mom I could still not find a groomer. I called Nick at work and we went to Walmart and bought clippers. i am pleased to say that although he is not very Bruno anymore he looks like a lion and he doesnt look very bad eather. He is now calm unheated and at home. now we are sitting in the living room and watching a movie. More to write soon. later,
Jacquie
