30 Days of Thankful in November

Day 13: today i'm thankful for my bff. I have found such a friend 'soul mate' in her. we grew up so close together, and graduated together, but it took 6 years for us to reconnect and really realize how much we had in common. Today is her birthday and I want her to know she's amazing! I ♥ you Jac (in a platonic non lesbian bff kind of way) HAHAHAH!!

Day 14: Today i am thankful for Pain pills

Day 15: today I am thankful for a group of great women who make my monotonous Tuesday class enjoyable and full of fits of giggles. They make the hour and a half of driving worth it.

Newest Book Series Obsession

 

The Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost

I just finished This Side of the Grave last night. It wasn't my favorite, but it was still really good. 

It is a story about Cat & Bones. I want to go into so much detail about how much i love these books, but I can't.... I don't want to ruin it. but please read these. but we'll just go with Cat is an illusive half breed, half vampire/half human who has set out to kill vampires. Then she runs into Bones who is a vampire unlike any she has come across before. There is a fine line between hate and love. they walk this line very carfully.

I wasn't so sure about it at first. My twin (aka freaky similar good friend) had the first books when I went to see her for our birthdays. We were standing in line at Disneyland reading (lol) and I got totally sucked into it. 

I had to wait to buy the last two books (This Side of the Grave & One Grave at a Time)! Like I said, I finished This side of the Grave late last night. It was a little slow and hard to get through, but it was worth it. I've started One Grave at a Time and am super excited. The ending of the last book and the beginning of this book has had an interesting twist, I can't wait to see where its going. 

Highly recommended.

30 Days of Thankful In November

I did this last year, and I really wanted to do it again this year, but i haven't had a chance to post much lately. So, Now i'm going to post all 12 days at once.

Day 1: I'm thankful for my amazing husband. Thing's aren't always disney perfect, but if love is there we'll always be our kind of perfect

Day 2: I'm thankful for the opportunity to go to school and follow my dream

Day 3: I'm thankful for Sammy, who knows when i'm sick and instantly becomes mama's cuddle buddy.

Day 4: I'm thankful for my family. I can't wait for my dad and brother to come down for thanksgiving. I'm going to miss my mommy though.


Day 5: I'm thankful for being in the military. People thank me, but I really don't know where or what i would be if it wasn't in the military.


Day 6: I'm thankful for the people in my unit. It was such an amazing drill weekend. This unit is full of such giving and generous people. I'm so thankful to be in this unit. This is the right place for me at this point in my life. I can feel it.


Day 7: I'm thankful for my Personal Trainer. She's helped me so much in the last 6 months. Not just physically but mentally as well. I think she's just plain amazing.


Day 8: I'm thankful for On Demand TV. Its nice to have all my favorite shows available when I have a chance to sit down and watch them.

Day 9: I'm thankful for this house. It may not be the best, but its so much better than the tiny apartment we were in last year.

Day 10: I'm thankful for my teachers this year. After a really rough week, they were so understanding and willing to work with me. I really feel this term all my hard work really is paying off.

Day 11: I'm thankful for all the veterans out there. Its so easy to overlook all the things we military members sacrifice. This year over half our unit is deployed and away from their families. I'm so proud of them.

Day 12: Today I'm thankful for the new monitor B just bought. i'm thankful for this random nugget for 2 reasons. 1) I don't have to hear about how much he wants a new monitor any more and 2) I get his old monitor. My monitor is nice, but its HUGE! so it will be nice to get a thin screen that doesn't take up half my desk. lol

Back....

This term has been a long one, but i finally feel like I'm back in the grove of things.

I feel back to my old self. Its a pretty nice feeling.

What an interesting night

Normally when i start a conversation, post, or blog with a title like that it involves loads of liquor and drunken events of stupidity.

But not this time.

So lets preface this story with the back ground of the day.
B worked until 645/700 pm (score for being back on days), i had put dinner in the crock pot and left for class around 415. So by the time i got home from school he was already in bed because he had to work again today. He left the house at 545 this morning (ew).
So i stayed up for about an hour just watching TV, decompressing, had a small dinner, and a beer, then went to bed about 10ish.

I layed down and snuggled in with my corner of the blanket. B had bogarted the rest of the KING size blanket. I know he doesn't sleep in 1 position so i waited up until i knew that he shifted and stole enough blanket back to just about cover me and settled in to go to sleep.

WRONG!

The noises started around 1100pm, but didn't really intensify till 1150.
It sounded in my mind like a loud female. i couldn't tell if she was screaming or what. but it was loud enough that i could hear it through the walls with no windows open. but it didn't sound loud enough for it to be right next door. it sounded a house away or on the back side of the block.

It settled down for a bit and I just about drifted off to sleep when BAM B wakes straight the fuck up. he goes out into the living rooms to 'investigate' and i hear the sound again. This is roughly 12:25am.

It woke me up again at 1:15, 2:45, and then i was finally able to get to sleep. that is until B left for work at 5:45.

It was just strange.

I had convinced my self that it was someone being murdered. so i made sure to pay attention to the times. but then i also realized that i sounded batshitcrazy to anyone normal so i did NOT call the cops.

But again it sounded seriously female and seriously crazed.
