The Weekend 5 (Sunday, June 25th 2017)

Welcome to the LAST one of these for June! This year is now flying by at full force. When I write you again friends it will be JULY! What? That means I have about a month and a few weeks before school again. So far not a lot has happened this Summer. Cleaning? No. Doing all kinds of things? No. I am lazy. How about you? Lazy Summer guess that is for me!

1. Had our first beach trip this week. Did it two days before Summer officially began on the 21st. Went with my dad, mom and sister. Only about 1.5hrs. But it was enough to get beat up by the ocean. And stand fearless before God. Let me explain. I have never felt so fearless before in the ocean. I was not afraid at all. I stood for the entire time I was there except when I fell a few times but got back up. And I felt like God is in control of the ocean so it cant hurt me. And if it hurts me then that is God allowing me to die. I got that. I was fearless. I want to face every day of my life here on earth till I die fearless as I was that day. So great beach day! Close to God. Fearless 100%

2. Did the GYM 3 days in a row! And felt it all the same. By Thursday night my body realized I had worked out hard. I did weights varying arms for every other day so legs only got once. But I use my legs a lot so that is fine with me. So gym time was great. Yes!

3. I worked 5 times this last week. My hours are going up. I am so glad that I am getting hours even for a few weeks. Almost 30 hours next week. Yes I know Summer is almost over. I am still at this job. Long as I am there lots of hours are great for me. No matter what.

4. It has been 7 years since we announced our move to AZ while in TN. We picked a great state with bad heat and something that changed us again. Sure it meant we would be back in Cali a year later. God knew this we did not. But I got an internship and my sister experience again at a LEGOLAND company. Yes that added time to what she has now. They have a great sealife btw much better then ours. I loved AZ I regret nothing.

5. My little Rainbow turned 15 on the 23rd. When I first got her I imagined a few things. That the rapture would probably happen before I lost her. I figured she had a good 18 or so years in her small dogs usually do. And I wanted her in my wedding. Well I am not married yet and the world is still spinning. God is good and in control I realize that. I am grateful for every day I have her because she is not healthy she has so many issues. But God is allowing me time with her. I pray for 3 more years at least. I am unsure if I will get married before then. I do not know if I will ever get married. But I know I love my dog like my kid and I do not want her to ever leave me. So we went to the beach some and she had fun. Not so fun was day before when I thought she had a uti and dropped her at the vet for hours while I went to work and such. My sister got her. But at least she does not have a uti and got her health exam a week early. So that was nice. But hated leaving her.

Speaking of pets. Our Rocky has another issue unsure what. Maybe uti they will let us know. He has now cost my credit card more than anyone ever. Rainbow some but Rocky more. He will be 9 on Monday and the sad thing was up until he got the other thing last year he was healthy as was Jackie. Something clicked around time he turned 8 and nothing good since. I love pets they are kids I don't want to lose him but its so much too much its not easy. God is in control I must remember this. So it has been that kind of week! Well that is all for me. How about you? I will see you all in July. Have a great last week of June.

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, June 18th 2017)

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there!! Doing this a day early again so I can get it up on time. It is a good habit I hope to keep. Hope you had a great week!!

1. Worked a lot last week. 5 days and my hours not bad! I am glad my hours are picking up when they do not have that many hours in the first place. Hurray for hours! Slow days sure but still yeah hours. And on Monday I won the drawing for a free gift card for the movies and candy. God likes to give me little surprises. God is good all the time. I will never forget that. But sometimes He likes to give me gifts I did not ask for. I am learning and re learning this since coming back to God a few months ago.

2. Heat wave! We are on a heat wave! I know this is not AZ where it will be 120 in a few days. But even 80's inside is miserable. Summer is almost here but its felt like it for weeks and these past few days we are in the middle of the same heat spell hitting NV, NM and AZ. I know we are by the ocean so that means it is cooler. Hope you are staying cool wherever you are as Summer gets in full swing this week

3. GYM I did that twice not three times this week. My choice. I did go faithfully on Monday & Wednesday. But skipped on Friday. I did it all weights included. I love going to the GYM. I pay for it every month I am glad to actually go not just pay for nothing. I do not regret the GYM every time I go or that we signed up last year

4. I often wonder why we ended up in AZ and then had to leave so fast. But my internship was one of those blessings I would never have had the chance to have if I had not gone to AZ. 6 years ago at this time I was enjoying my first and only internship. I was learning so much. Loving it all so much. And not wanting it to end. I loved it even the heat of walking there to and from the lightrail. I cried my last day. I never will forget my experience. I will never forget FOX10 Phoenix!

5. We got to do the Del Mar Fair again this year. We went on Thursday. My sister had picked up a shift on the only day we could go but got it switched. So we did the train again left on the 3:32. Got to the fair about 4:15. Ate food till 5 the samples again. Sat around in the plant area. Walked the areas with the displays, looked at animals. Ate some more. Rode the only ride we ride we love Sky Ride. Ate a cream puff. Left on the train at 9:39. Had fun. Not cheap. Didn't play games they raised the price for if you want a prize no matter what $10? It used to be like $5. It was hot out but would have been hotter had we gone sooner. So we had fun.

That is all for last week. Hope you had a good one. Stay cool my friends. God is good I hope you know Him. Have a great next week. Welcome Summer. Happy Fathers Day. See you in a week. :)

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, June 11th 2017)

Doing this one day early so it will be up on time! Hope you had a great week. Mine was alright I guess.

1. Did the GYM a lot last week. Well not A LOT but enough. Twice in a row. I went on Thursday then again on Friday. I would have gone on Monday too but my sister still sick so we just got pizza but nothing else. I love going to the GYM. Even if it leaves me exhausted after and I have to work so I am like tired and stuff. But that is a okay with me. I pay for it mind as well use it

2. Work was okay. I only worked 4 days. I worked on Sunday, then Monday. Both small shifts of closing. I always close. Once in a blue moon aka about once every 3 months I might not close. Then I was off Tuesday & Wednesday no requested it. I used them to clean which was nice and try to catch up on sleep. I worked again Thursday & Friday. I had yesterday (Saturday) off by request but ended up not needing it off. So I hung with my family and did some fun stuff. Then chilled at home.

3. Been seeing a lot of movies this past week. Not in theaters but on dvd. We rented out Beauty & the Beast. I must say the movie was awesome I love the great job they did. I had a feeling they would do well and wanted to see in theaters but it never happened. I also rented The Shack and loved every second of it. The movie was as feel good as the book. Mind you it is NOT easy. The book like the movie digs deep at things we all face in our relationship with God. Sure we don't all have a bad thing happen like our daughter being murdered. But we do face things like: judging others when we should not be the judge, determining who we think should be saved or redeemed, not trusting God, unsure why bad in the world, etc etc. I highly recommend. Miracles from Heaven a true story finally watched that one. Very good. Different from Heaven is for Real. But still good. Thanks for the borrow from mom.

4. So I signed up for classes in the fall. And I am all set. But will probably change again. I only for sure want to take 2 classes. The rest are maybes. Only 2 both in person. Gulp. And in other news. My online photo class I ended up getting a grade change. My teacher believed me when I said I was confused about the final being turned in. And she let me re submit it and liked my hard wrok. I went from a C to a B! I am so glad I tried.

5. Went to the beach today. Well sorta. The harbor with my parents and sister. Also did a few other things. Sure I had to get up early after not so great early bed and that was after 2 days of not sleeping well then working. But we had fun. Got dinner and a drink from starbucks. All good fun. Watching the youngest now (she still asleep maybe) while parents see a movie. They should be home soon.

Well that is all for now. Have a great week everyone. Still not working much for me. But yeah that is how it goes. Summer is coming it is almost here. Need to hit the beach stat. See you next weekend!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, June 4th 2017)

Welcome to June! So this was a long weekend following a not so great week. I got sick AGAIN. Different sick but sick. It is June now. And I have been sick THREE times this year. This is a record for me. You see I rarely get sick. Maybe twice a year IF that. To be sick 3 times in the first 5 months of the year does not make me happy. I am worried my immunity is bad or something. Anyways. So hope your week went better then mine. More below. As always thanks for reading :)

1. My only time for the GYM this week and due to still not feeling it I literally got dressed, sat on the bike 1 minute and just sat in the back for 2hrs. I had over 2hrs at the GYM and cause I not well THREE days later I was not able to workout. Sadly today my sister who go what I had along with my parents as well. It is really catchy. We are not doing GYM today either but for pizza. Good luck next week well this week

2. Work was slower then planned and then I called out. Yes I called out. I worked a small shift Sunday. I had Monday & Tuesday off. Then I had to call out Wednesday. I have not called out from work since 2015. So 2 years is a nice run. I lost a good 6hr shift a half a real shift. So I worked Friday and Saturday too so only 3 days not the original planned 4. Still not enough hours but I am not going to complain on here anymore about this. You never know who reads these

3. We had 2 movies last week I saw 1. But I got a free movie from the other one. More below in my sick update. My sister and me were going with my dad to see Pirates again. Well he never saw it first time but we did. But I did not. However Wonder Woman was wonderful 100%. I cheer a movie with a female lead it is so sad we never get our time. I never knew the background for Wonder Woman so it is interesting finding that out just as much when I found out the background for Super Girl. Cheers! Go see it!

4. Memorial Day I happened to not work. So I got up super early went with my mom, dad and sister while my other sister worked to the beach. We took a nice long over 3 mile back and fourth total walk along the top of the beach. What fun. Crowded cause that is where everyone goes first official day of Summer. Later dad made burgers. Not a bad day at all.

5. So Tuesday was the beginning of the end for me. Began okay. Got up early. Were going to meet up with a friend at LEGOLAND. But first go to Ikea. Then see movie with dad. See above. But we got a late start. I was super hungry going in. I had a sandwich, chips and then when my sister getting tickets I got a muffin and cookies for the road. I ate a few cookies on the way over. When we got to Ikea I thought I still hungry but began to feel funny. Now of note: I have a bad stomach and being tired sometimes causes me to feel funny. I was straight up feeling like I was gonna barf. I felt sick like shaky and my stomach so weird. Smells not fun. I laid on a bed and could not shake this. It was not going away. I told my sister I felt like I was car sick but without the car. She got me some chips on the way out. So we drove back and hit traffic. LEGOLAND never happened. Almost late to see the movie. And just as we getting off the freeway I got sick and had to throw up I thought car sick I couldn't not do it. I did it outside the car but I couldn't help it. I thought I okay that was it right. Felt funny car sick. Went to Target to clean up and get a 7up and some crackers. Off to meet dad. I was like oh no I am going to do it again. This time it was way worse. Car little this not. This a lot this was not going away. I would then stay in the bathroom doing this 3x total there while they saw the film. I called out when they done and we going home. Twice more. I thought I okay several hours of okay so I had some liquids and was a mistake. Then no more. I slept 12hrs into Wednesday. Wednesday I felt so off just fever some achy and tired. I slept and just chilled. Saw the movie Thursday. Friday I thought I okay for the gym but too shaky and dizzy so I didn't do anything. Work was a nightmare I was still dizzy and shaky at work Friday & Saturday. Sunday I began to not be so much and today I am okay finally. Almost a week long bug I gave to my whole family and I have no idea where it came from!

Well moving on there. Hope this week better. I am not working as much. And it is Summer. With no internship and no school I can finally start to enjoy my free time! Have a great week everyone. See you next weekend!
