Apparently the ex-roomie was bitter when she moved out...cause...(now this one kinda shocked me a bit)...she took food that didn't even belong to her.
I went to the fridge after a long days work and was gonna make this meal I had prepped for last week...but nooooo...she took some of my food! Hahahaha, if she had asked I would have sent her away with a care package...hahahahah!
On another note, I'm excited about tomorrow. It's girls night and my gal pals and I are planning our usual Thursday event. I haven't seen them in a week and I'm feeling deprived so it sure will be nice to get out and enjoy they're silly antics.
Still waiting to hear what Grandma's results are, gotta just keep praying and having faith in the power of that which we can not control.

William
Julie (my sister in law) said William (my 3 year old Newphew) had some testing the other day. These tests are called IP's and they are to see how the child is progressing in vocabulary and such to see if they are ready for school or need special help. Apparently when they asked him about colors - when they showed him purple - he said RahRah (his sister's nickname), blue was Skyler (his brother)---
With numbers - guess what - 4 was Rah Rah (that is in fact her age), 2 or 3 was Willie (that's his age too...hahaha) ---
Finally, they did the alphabet - the person said “A” “ah” “ah” and he didn't care at all- then “B” “buh” “buh” - he got all excited -- they thought it was cool he knew his alphabet until Julie explained he was excited about his aunt since they call me Bubba! HAHAH!

First Roomie Encounter
I had been warned that roomie can be bad...bad...and worse. This one was only bad...some...
Kristy moved in at the end of June. It was agreed it would be a 3 week - 4 week room rental. I didn't ask for a deposit and asked for price that was less than the other two girls in the house were paying. At the end of week 3, I was told she'd be out by the end of 4, at the end of 4 I asked for more $$ to help with utilities since she was still there. At the end of week 5 I asked for $45 in rent for the week (that would equal $180 a month for rent - CRAZY CHEAP). She got upset...needless to say...she was unable to pay and moved out today.
She left a mess in her old room and the kitchen. When I texted her a message to let her know that I didn't appreciate her mess - she responded that she didn't really care since I was money hungry! HAHAHAH! Perhaps $45 is unreasonable but considering all the other girls are paying at least $100 a week...I think it was very generous and can't say I regret anything other than offering up my hospitality to her. Next time, I will most certainly ask any individual passing through for a deposit and a set move in/out date. Lesson learned.
Might I add that I was thanked by a roomie for not allowing that situation to continue.

The Weekend
So we all know that last week was EXTREMELY tough on me. Between the loss of my cousin and my grandmom's health, I've been really hurting. It was strange because although last week was rough and this week is going to tougher...I have this weekend in the middle that I had already committed to. It was a bit of a distraction and that was nice. I got to get away from the real world and just touch base with myself. It was much needed and a great time.
I also got to go to the Coloma Club for the first time. That place is really neat. They have the back of the club set up kinda in a tropical fashion. Definitely comes with my recommendation - you can bet I'll be there more often!

Too Much Somtimes
Life is so flippin' fragile. I found out this morning that my counsin, Jordan was killed in a car accident. She was only 19 years old. I'm surprised and not getting it right now...but wow...life is so fragile. I just cherish everyone I have so much that it seems...wow

Direction
I was going to post about things that have been on my mind for a week or so now, the job, the people in my life, love, happiness and adventure...but as the story goes...fate has a different direction for me right now.
There are some serious events taking place around me that do directly affect me. Sure, I'm a bit worried right now but at the same time I know that I have to be strong because if I'm not, who will be? Details aren't been talked about right now, just for privacy reasons and all...but your prayers and support for my family and every one's health and positive spirits would sure be appreciated.

Switching It Up
I'm changing stuff, things that don't work go out and things that work stay in. End of story!
I've got two important meetings today and they may mean a happier, healthier me, at least that's what I'm counting on. We'll have to see.
Other than that, life's good. I've got a lot going on. Things are right. I love my new house, it's wonderful. Sure my roommates can be pills on occassion but that's okay too, I'm learning how to deal with that and I think it's making me a better person.
For example, after my weekend camp trip, I came home and there was someone else's underwear in my room! YIKES! I wanted very badly to completely flip out. Instead, I washed my sheets, announced to the house that who ever left their underwear in my room could find it in the living room, and I used tongs to move the underwear to the center of the living room. Magically, it disappeared...ha!

Loon Lake
Milinda, Derek, John, Lee, Paul, Lori and I kayaked out around Loon Lake and found a nice little camping site. We set up overnight and had a great time. There was much drinking, much coolness and much fun.
Derek's a great guy, he's super friendly and sweet. I know that Milinda really cares about him. I just hope that he'll wake up and realize what a great lady she is.
John's a hoe...at least that's what I've decided. He's one of those older men that gets around more than he ought to...you know...like a few of the others I know.
Lori was an overall nice person but not someone I hope to see more of.
Paul was a blast. He's a wealth of knowledge about kayaking!
Lee, lee, lee...he cracked me up. He had this very dry sense of humor and no one would laugh but me when he said something funny. I think he's hilarious at least!

Intensity
I'm too intense for 95% of the population. First there was Brad who ran away cause I was too much to handle for him. Now...strangely...I think Brandon may be running. STRANGE!! We've been doing our thing and yesterday he sent me a message that said "Do me a favor - back off. I have some things I need to deal with." To which I was quickly offended and sent him a message that read "WOW! Not like you at all. Harsh!" And he then said "Sorry, nothing against you. I just need some time alone."
What does any of that mean? I'm not going to stress over it, but I do have to wonder just what's up. He's been in my life (on and off) for five years. But in the past when things weren't what he wanted he just disappeared, what does it mean that he actually told me this time and does that mean he's not going away, he just needs space. I'm so confused and the worst part is that strangely, in the past, I've used my wall and ignored the sketchy in our relationship - however, I seem to care this time...what does that say about me?
