Because Dave said I could....

If he ever dies in a fiery car crash I am allowed to marry Christian Bale! And I am not just a "Batman" fan....He won my heart the first time I saw Newsies.

1800

At last check that is what the wait list was up to for nursing school. I know I should go take my NET exam, but I really want to get through Microbiology first. Excuses, excuses...they are my middle name and I'm sure procrastination is in there somewhere as well...if that one wasn't already obvious! Well the monsoon season hit two weeks ago and Dave got caught in it coming home from school. His poor baby hit a manhole and took out his oil pan and rim and tire. The picture is after the fireman put the cover back in the hole....oops!

the flares were a nice touch....they just happened to be a day late and a dollar short!

In Memory of Gram

When Dave's "Gram" past away, he inherited her S-10 Blazer. We had a lot of fun memories of that truck and it served us well, but the time came to trade it in and get something more mechanically sound as well as fuel efficient. In the Blazer Gram had put what I call Mr. Fuzzyhead and the rest of the family calls a weeble on the dashboard. We made sure that we transferred Mr. Fuzzyhead to the new car and immediate felt that Gram approved of the purchase and that she is still being a backseat driver with us. We miss you Gram, but Thank you!

1499...

That is the amount of people who have an application in and accepted waiting for a spot into the nursing program with only 498 spots available per semester...yeah, this could take awhile. I am still waiting for my fingerprints to come back and then I will take the NET exam, and then I can turn my application in...I wonder what number it will be up to by then? I just need to be glad that I am done staring and tearing apart dead cats! YIPEEE!!!

Procrastination

I have my last test for Anatomy and Physiology on Tuesday and I have so far been very successful at not studying for it today. I did put in a good amount of time yesterday and was able to get through the respiratory and urinary systems...unfortunately I still have the male and female reproductive systems to go. Instead I have been helping Dave search for a new car. He was going to wait until he graduated in two years and gift himself a Chevy Volt.

He is trying to be environmental. Unfortunately he drives an hour to and from work in a vehicle that only gets 16 mpg. The bug has bitten and he is trying to figure out if he should get an Aveo or an SS Colbalt. My vote is for the Aveo now and then once the degree is in hand step up...but do men ever listen to their wives??? We shall see, and I need to study. I am hoping that since I am taking the summer off that I can be a better blogger and that it doesn't take me almost a year to post again!!!

A World of Craziness

We always want what we can't have. After seeing Transformers this evening this would apply to the 2009 Chevy Camero. Unless we win the lottery...which we don't play or have a rich relative that dies...which we wouldn't want to happen, nor do we have one... I guess we will have to continue to drool and wish upon the things of the world and just be grateful for what we do have. Don't get me wrong, we are very grateful, but oh in the words of Dave, "if you have the means, I would highly recommend it!"
