Another Weekend in the Books.

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend! Another one has come and gone too soon. I want to give a special "Hello" to all my new followers out there! Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy. :)

Friday night we had a double header in kickball. We came out with the split, but none the less... it was fun. My friends brought my god babies out to the game to see me, and that put the biggest smile on my face! I was so happy they came out! After the game I went to the bar that sponsors the league, so our team could eat our free pizza. About 11pm, I decided to leave. Walked out to the car and clicked the unlock button on my clicker, then realized... it's dead. Whenever I go in the bar, I only take my clicker because it's more convenient. I knew the clicker was dead when I took it off my key ring, but I completely forgot at the time. So at 11pm I had to call my Dad to come pick me up from the bar and take me to Walmart to get a battery. How embarrassing. Maybe the story would have been more funny if I was drunk, but I'm was completely sober. Luckily after 30 minutes or so, we FINALLY found the one and only battery they had left for my clicker! They had tons of other ones, but there was only one with my number on it! Luckily I didn't have to call AAA! 

We don't know how to take a serious picture! 

Saturday I woke up early and headed out to my Aunt's yard sale. Helped them out a little bit, then went to an auction with my Dad and Beth. I've been to auctions, I know how they work. My sister on the other hand has never been to one. Let's just say, SHE LOVED IT! We came home with literally a truck full of stuff and only spent $48. That's with taxes and fees included. I'd say we did a great job, and she is hooked. The next auction they are having is while we are on vacation. Looks like we are heading back early to be able to make the auction. It's a family affair! :) 

The rest of the weekend was filled with Estate Sales, Doumars, getting my car fixed, skinny dip with the dogs, and studying! I hope you all had great weekends. And I hope this week goes smoothly for everyone!!

Doumar's with the family! :)

Went to visit Jonas' brother!
Beth's birthday weekend!
Momma and her girls!


...Until Next Time...

Kiss of Death

First off, Happy Friday Everyone! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. As well as I hope you all have quite the awesome weekend!

I'm beginning to think that I'm the kiss of death. Things at work are still picking up since we relocated, but they aren't back to normal quite yet. Since we've been here, I've been doing a lot of traveling or being away from the office. Normally you think that would be a bad thing... but evidently it works wonders for the business. Whenever I am out of town or take the day off, they get really busy. I'm starting to think that I should just get paid to go do estate sales and yard sales with my Mom on Fridays! Seems pretty reasonable right?

My Mom has started finding things and reselling them on Ebay and making good profits. Well, she's been out of town this week so guess who had to take over shipping everything for her!? You got it, this girl! She has been selling stuff constantly this week. I think I get the unfair side to this deal though. She gets to hear the money sound go off on her phone and get the money in her account... I get the task of packaging, doing postage, and shipping it all out. I think I'm going to have to rethink this arrangement. :) Totally kidding of course! I certainly benefit when we are out and I find something I like. See I don't have the eye for things that can sell. I'm glad one of us does though.

Well it's time to try to get some stuff finished up at work so I won't have loads of paperwork to do next week! And then of course it's time to continue reading City of Ashes which is part of  The Mortal Instruments series. :) 

Hoping to have a pretty good blog to put up next week! Seeing as how Jonas' birthday was Wednesday, I'm celebrating it this weekend! He is officially 5 years old. I'll be making a cake for him and everything! Did I mention Jonas is my dog!?!?!

...Until Next Time...
