an update.....

So... here is life.

Brent- Brent is still working away at both jobs. We spent Christmas at Grandmas house up in Winter Haven and had lots of fun. Brent got for Christmas: 2 book store gift cards, a visa card to shop with; a dkny shirt; a book light; a book mark; ipod headphones; ipod charger; a book; earrings; running shoes.... and our together gifts are as follows; tons of kitchen stuff; walmart cards; panera card; book money; cookies and tjs picture/frame; flitch... and other stuff I am probrably forgetting. And my grandparents brought him down his guitar from PA which I believe he uses the most. He lovessss his guitar! But yeah, Brent has also recently taken over the bills and all money output because he is a lot more responsible than I, so that we can save more money. And I think thats all for him right now. He has also had off Panera for this week since we went to Grandmas, he enjoys just working one job for a week. He goes back tomorrow night.

Leah- My posts are always longer because I am the one that updates and I dont know everything that Brent thinks... lol. He is very busy and does not update often. Anywho... Leah has a few different updates. First of all Leahs Christmas gifts; red flats with matching shirt; blue shirt; tote; shopping bag tote; bath soaps; earrings; a wallet; moccasins; a shirt from Brent; a hoodie and tank; and I think thats it unless I forgot things. And I start school on Monday. I am taking a chem class, a bio class, and a french class. I also bought most of my books online yesterday, which made everything very real to me. I am very nervous about going back to school but excited at the same time. My job as I probrably said before can not keep me around as part time because they need full time, so they found somebody else to take my shift. So they took me off the schedule as of the 12th of January, which is a little more than a week away. So.... today was job hunt day. The one day where my PANERA addiction has helped me, heres the story. Brent works at a Panera about 5 miles away because the one close was not hiring. Although I used to get lunch at the Panera basically 1/10 of a mile away from our apt all the time. So I walked in there and knew the hiring manager because thats how much I go there, and got a job. I start training this weekend hopefully, but she said welcome to the team... so all is well. Job stress is off, and I have an awesome schedule. I know I primarily will work the day shift which is like 5am-1pm which means I have every night off which is sweet. So thats good for me.... I am pumped to start there. I think that is all for today!

Kitty- Started a new food, instead of a kitten food which plumps them up she is on a dental care food from Science Diet so that her teeth stay healthy.... and she is sleeping under the Christmas tree right now, so she can't add anything to the conversation. ha...



well.... love you miss you peace

update

So here is life as of now:

Brent- Brent is still working allllll the time so we can save money. He works 7-315. And then night hours at Panera. This week he worked like everyday but Monday at Panera and he works straight through till I think Tuesday. He asked off of Panera for Christmas Eve to Christmas weekend so that we can go to Grandmas for Christmas. He is at work right now at Macys since its the weekend before Christmas. So... yeah, that is Brent right now... Workaholic man.

Leah- may be a little more complicated. Basically since I am going to school I am cutting my hours back at work, and my current job is not interested in me being part time so I am going to get another job for part now. I will be in college full time starting the 1st week in January. Grandma told me about sites that let you rent books instead of buying, so basically I finally looked into it and realized that I can get my books for a 1/4 of the price of what they cost. So that is a good discovery. Anyways.... thats life or now. I am just being a bum today.

christmas

This is the tree after the decorations.
This is the stockings we made and one of my angels

This is one of the felt decorations we made
This is the tree from afar ha
This is the kitty in Brents sock drawer


okay... so here is an update for you.
1. Ben was here this weekend and we had a ton of fun. He came in on Thursday night and we all went to pick him up. On Friday Brent called off work to hang out with him and they went to the beach, picked up Sam when she got off and just hung out and played cards. When I got off we all just hung out together. Saturday we went and bought stuff to make our own Christmas decorations out of felt and had a ton of fun. Then I went to a work party at Dr Teresa's house and had a lot of fun, Brent came for a little. Then we came back here and hung out with Ben and Sam and watched movies. On Sunday we went to a craft show and then came back here to hang out. Sunday night we took Ben back and went shopping with Sam for the last of her college stuff at Target. Today Sam went home and now its just us for Christmas. :)

2. My mom sent me a box today with all my angels in it. Since I was born I get a Christmas decoration that is an angel for every Christmas, so I got all 17 of them in the mail today. And my gold ballerina, which is like the ultimate decoration. And we got a letter from Joshy/Kirsten/Aaron, and candy. So then I put them all on the tree and I have update pictures.

This is our freaking awesome picture from this kick ass concert we went to all day today. Its where 26 bands come together and throw a great show. Some death metals, some punk bands, and pretty much all of them are nationally great bands. Red Jumpsuit, Atreyu, Salivia, Mayday Parade, etc. It was awesome, and it was our Christmas present from Sam.
This is kitty being devious
This is the bottom half of our tree that has no decorations thanks to kitty.
There is an example of 1 of the millions of decorations placed in different places throughout the house by her
This is the tree as a whole and our stockings.
This is our roomie Dale, he is pretty kick ass. He is pretty chill and laid back, he's an optician, but is very musically talented. He also introduced us to eggs Benedict, and cooks breakfast for us. Very cool guy, him being here makes it possible for me to go back to school, financially. So all is good with him

And there is just a few picture updates.

yo leah

So life has been pretty regular lately.

Leah-

I work every week day at the vet office.  I am registered for the spring semester at PBCC still, I owe them $90 for the remainder of classes that my loan did not cover.  I also need book money, which is about $350 dollars, so I  really need that. And life is good.  I decided that my sweat pants are such a scape goat for me, thats why I never notice weight gain, so I am getting rid of all but 1 pair of sweaties.  Looking cute makes me get out and going.  Things are getting a little hard as the holidays come closer.... like without family, but grandma is coming soon so I am excited.  

Ben-

Has bought plane tickets to come down here to see us next weekend and we are so excited to show him around. This is also the last time that we will see him before his mission (poop).... and we are going to miss him.

Brent- 

Is SOOOOO busy.... he works works works works works.  And we have a separate bank acct to put that money in for savings.  He is working hard so we can pay some things off.

Sam-

BOUGHT US TICKETS TO THE BUZZ BAKE SALE FOR CHRISTMAS!!!! Which is basically the largest rock concert in all of South Florida.  It has like 26 bands and it will be amazing. It is tomorrow and we are all pumped.  Today was her last day at the chocolate shop, and next friday is her last day at macys.  She goes home dec 15th, we will miss her.

Kitty-

Loves toes, weird I know. And Christmas tree ornaments. HAHAHA

well... love you miss you peace angelia
