Goofy look, new hair

I got my hair cut today and it is so cute! I love it. It still is long but has layers which gives it a much better look. The dead is off and I love it. I tried taking pictures while smiling but they all looked goofy so I choose to make and goofy look.

I have lots I want to blog but I have a migraine and want to go to bed, maybe tomorrow.

Phone picture

I was sending pictures from my phone to the computer and I found this one. Isn't this a doll! It's my best friend Kristi's son, Will. He is got to be one of the happiest babies ever!

Christmas wish

This is it, this is going to be my stress free holiday season. Here's how it's going to happen. I'm not going to go store to store trying to decide what piece of crap I can by for someone in hopes that they like it lots, so they don't take it back and realize just how cheap I am.

Point- If you want a gift.....You need to tell me what you want. Give me several ideas so I can choose and then it is some what of a surprise. If I don't get a list or an idea you don't get a gift.

Hate to be harsh, but I don't think I can handle another stress filled holiday season.

Oh I plan to be done with all my holiday shopping done by December 15th, which is the day I leave to North Carolina till the 22nd.

To help you all out here are some great ideas for gifts for me. (I'm not saying you need to buy me anything but if you just want to)

1. The new pink CD (I don't think it is out yet)
2. Anything from my Amazon wish list (Click here) some of these books are really cheap.
3. Socks, warm ones for my cold winter feet.
4. A day at the spa or just a massage
5. Chocolate covered peanuts (I love those)
6. Pumpkin muffins (I know Tiffany will take care of these.)
7.

I have drawn a blank and can't think of any other stuff at the moment. I will update.

Here is a list of crazy expensive stuff I want but don't expect anyone to spend this amount on money.
1. a cruise
2. a new laptop
3. my credit card paid off
4. the rest of my car fixed
5. a new bed
6. lipo suction
7. a date with brody from The Hills

Best Idea EVER

Why did I not think of this?

Here is the link to the news article where I found this genius idea.

My dating life is so boring, I'm starting to consider becoming a mail order bride and wishing my country believed in arranged marriages.

Carlos

Sometimes I like to hit the button at the top that says "Next blog" just to read what other people blog about.

I just found this blog that is I guess pimped out rides or something I'm not sure it is another language. I had a car when I was a teen it was a 1985 Honda accord hatchback and was a gold color I named it Carlos, some friends called it the golden nugget. This man has pimped it.

$1.99 has Hell began to freeze?

I got a phone call today that gas is $1.99 at Brookshires. Is it true? I need a shower before I grace this town or anyone with my attempt of beauty.

Has Hell began to freeze? What is going on? This is GREAT! I travel more than well anyone I know. When I say travel, I mean drive lots of miles in a short time going long distances. My travel is only to school, family and friends, not to exciting places. Well not that my family and friends is not exciting.

My point is my gas bill is about to go DOWN and I could not be more excited!

Please send gifts

Tomorrow Tuesday, October 21st is national pharmacy technician day. I would not have known this had I not gotten a letter from work telling me thanks for all my hard work. They should have sent a gift.

The worst

This is not going to be a happy post. If you want happy read something else. I'm bitter and sad right now and I'm going to have a woe is me post.

Let me just say today right now this moment I am jealous when I say jealous I mean hate the fact that I am single.

The one thing that is pissing me off today is the fair. Yes I'm once again gripping about the fair. It ended yesterday without me getting to go at all. Not even for 2 hours just to walk in and out. I didn't get to go AT ALL. Why because I'm single. That's why. Yes poor pitiful big lonely Amber didn't get to go the fair one of the best things of October cause she is single.

I asked friends, who by the way are married. YUP I have no single friends. They all went with husbands or kids or someone else. I asked my sisters, they were to busy. One with kids the other with school. I asked ex losers who even turned me down. I asked my dad, who had to work and then told me not to go alone, cause I was going to do that, but when dad says don't go alone I figure it must really not be safe.

I get to hear about everyone else and all their great fair times and see pictures and crap while I'm sitting all alone just wishing I could have gone to the fair.

For all you married un-lonely people that for one second think of being envious of my single life, my ability to go where and when I want. Stop and think of the things you get that I don't. One of those being someone next to you in the morning.

P.s. Madalyn is now my ex-sister for 3 days cause she did go to the fair with out me. Not only did she go without me but she didn't even bother to call and ask me if I wanted to go. After me begging her last week to skip school and go with me.

End of my woe is me post. I hope someone reading this fills sorry me. ha

Slumber Party!

Shelby had a bunch of friends come over last night for her birthday. I think 8 girls total showed up but it felt like 100. Three boys came over, they didn't spend the night. One lives like 2 houses down. The other lives a street over and the other kid I did not know. He drives, I had a little bit of a problem with a boy old enough to drive hanging with my 14 year old sister. I did some questioning and he is a kid from church. I'm still a little uneasy about it but you can't argue with church.
Jana and I had some friends over, Tesha and Debbie. The kids were outside when we were thinking of ways to scare them.
Tesha dressed like this.........

While I gathered the kids in the front yard for some pictures. They chose to line up by the car which worked really good. I happened to take a picture right as Tesha ran around the house. It was way to funny! The night was long. The boys left then I went to bed. I don't remember what time some time after 1:30 I sent Shelby a text and told her to please, shut up and forward to all her friends. It didn't work. I called her at 3 and told her it was 3AM and they needed to go to bed.

Tonight it is quiet and I like it. Addi and Jana are sick I'm not digging that.

I'm getting my flu shot tomorrow, I'm so not digging that.

HELP

Shelby is having a birthday party tonight. There are 15, 13 year olds coming over. I hope they don't all show up. The noise level right now is already to much, and I think there are only 8 girls here.

I know she has been waiting.

Selena has been checking my blog daily she says waiting for the day she is reinstated as my sister. The day has come. Actually it was yesterday, but I have been crazy busy and haven't posted.


She is once again my sister. We are actually having a sister night on Tuesday cause she will be in Dallas for work. She loves me so much that she invited me to come and stay with her Tuesday night. It will be so much fun.
Because I love her and we are so funny I will post this picture of her in my dads glasses. HA!

Ex-sister

This is my EX-sister. Well, for 3 days anyways. I know she is beautiful and looks sweet and innocent, BUT do not let it fool you.

I am mad at her because I called her last week and left a message and she never called back. I called her again on Saturday at 4pm left a message asking her to please skip work and allow the kids to skip school and go to the fair with me. She NEVER called back. The world revolves around me and she should have the time to call me back, single mom of three kids is NO excuse. I'm AMBER dang-it! Monday night my sweet adorable niece Gabriela called me to make sure I was coming to the football game on Thursday, which I am. I told Brie to relay a message to her mom. I said...."I called you Saturday it is Monday and you have not called me back, for that I am not your sister for 3 days."

For that I will post this goofy picture of her!
She did call me today and said that I called Saturday during her nap, I guess she napped until Monday evening.

Crazy lady

Every neighborhood has one I happen to be the one in mine, and I'm not even technically old enough to be it.

**True story happened tonight***

I walk into the store, notice people looking at me strange. Then I notice I still have my apron with icing on it from the cookies I had baked.

My poor children will be so embarrassed, maybe that is why I don't have any. At least my hair was not in rollers!

Q: What did the alien say to the plant?

A: Take me to your weeder.

Hahahahahahahahaha.....If you didn't laugh there is something wrong with you.

Bowling


I am taking a bowling class this semester cause I have to have a P.E. class. I just have to go up to the bowling alley sign in and bowl. I took Shelby and a friend of hers with me on Saturday. The friend didn't want to bowl but she took some pictures of us. I have a big butt!

I sure hope I start losing some weight soon. Remember camera adds 10...20......30 pounds!

Kids are fun!

Last weekend I kept Kristi and Nathan's kids (My best friends). Chandler is about to be 6. Kennedy is 3 and little Will is 7 months.

It was so much fun and tiring at the same time.

Friday night we just hung out around the house. I let the kids stay up till around 9:30 since I didn't get there till 8. I told them the could sleep in their parents big bed with me if they wanted. Truth is I was a little scared and if I had been in the HUGE bed all alone I would have never fallen asleep. Kennedy quickly told me that they have their own beds. I REALLY wanted to watch the Greys Anatomy season premiere that I had Kristi tape for me. I had Kennedy pick out a movie. Chandler went in his parents room with toys and books. They were both quickly asleep.
Kristi and Nathan came home that night and the next morning we all went to Chandlers Soccer game. Then the kids and I went to my cousin Annette's house for a play date. The kids all played so well together. Annette's living room was arranged perfect for Will. He and I sat on the floor and he played in the middle of the circle so good. The only time he crawled out was if I left the circle. When we first got there he cried when Clay would look at him, then by the end of the day If clay walked away he would cry.
We left Annette's and went to Kristi's parents house where we decorated Halloween cookies with Grammy, Grampy, Aunt Tiffy and Uncle Matt. It was fun. It was the only time all weekend that I took any pictures. Here is Kennedy eating her cookie.

Grammy asked Chandler if he wanted a Pizza or corn dog to eat. He replied "No, my mom says I need to start eating healthy." Grammy asked if he wanted a salad. At first he said no that he wasn't very hungry then he said that he would have one. Here he is eating it.

Here is the cookie I decorated. I think it should be a witches pot, but it looks more like a pile of poo.

Here is little Will enjoying part of his dinner. He is so stinking cute and happy. He smiles all the time.

These kids kept me laughing all weekend. It is so fun with them. I get to see them once a week because of school and I love that part of my week. Plus I get to see my best friend.

As much as I want a baby I still enjoy going to the bathroom alone, not having someone on the other side of the door asking me if I'm going "pee or poop?" Only having one person to get in the car...ME. Not having to worry if someone else is hungry just know when I am. Not having to wake up early and get myself and 3 others ready. And the number one reason why I tell myself that it is good that I'm alone and childless because.....I can sleep all day everyday cause there is nothing else to do!

We fought and she won

Jana has been talking about painting the living room well pretty much since we moved in...over a year ago. I try to ignore her, cause I do not like to paint. I love the way it looks after and the actual painting for about 3 seconds. However, I get bored quick, and hate the clean up.

We all pretty much tried to keep from doing it, but she finally won Friday night at midnight. Shelby had 2 friends over they were roped into helping. We painted the walls Friday night I think we finished around 2. Then on Saturday between my psychotic rages Scotty and I did the trim and we all put everything back together. It is nice. The color is PINK. It says craft beige. I would have liked a darker brown, but I didn't want to paint anyways. One day I will have my own home and I will enjoy doing these things but not when I have a million things due for school.

Here is Shelby painting. Yes she has shorts on just not "modest" ones.

This is Amanda painting. Hannah (who I called Hayley all night) would not take a picture.

Here is Scotty working hard. Yes I think that tattoo is very scary also.

I live a boring life.

I stay up all night on the Internet blogging boring stuff that no one cares about, on facebook, just playing on the Internet. I should be doing homework, reading, exercising, sleeping. There are plenty other things I could do but I spend all my time doing crap on the Internet.

Please no one be jealous of this fabulous life I lead.

I am sad.

I love the fair. It ends on October 19th. There is no day between now and then that I can go. That makes me sad. Why can't it last till the end of October.

I have lots...

I have lots of things to post. Tons of stuff running in my head. Tons of stuff that has happened. It is 2am, I just finished painting the living room and I'm sleepy. Maybe tomorrow I will have time to post some of this stuff and relieve my stuffy head! :)

Oh, something great happened today. I checked my information online about the research paper that is due October 5th, and it now says October 12th! That is so great! I know it is because I prayed. I didn't pray for the date to change. I just prayed for peace and to be able to not be so stressed and to be able to complete the paper.

Tomorrow will be spent bowling, and paper writing. Hopefully some blogging will be done also, but for now I'm off to snore!

Oh one more thing....I LOVE MY MOM!

October

I love the 4th of July. I'm not sure why, I just love it. Love the fireworks. Love the hot air. Love the cookouts. Love the day off. Love the swimming. Love the red, white, and blue. I just love it!

I have always said it is my favorite holiday. Spring is my favorite season, the weather is perfect minus all the rain.

BUT...October is my favorite month, and here is why.

It is breast cancer awareness month. I love this charity for several reasons. One it gives me something to donate to and claim as "my charity." It also is pink and everything is pink. Making there be lots and lots of pink items sold! AND this is a little silly but because I have big "ta-tas" and have a strange fear that I will die of breast cancer.


It is also when the state fair happens. I love the state fair. I love the corn-dogs, the car show, walking all over, seeing strange folks, complaining that I'm tired from all the walking, all the free stuff, and BIG TEX! Every year I say I want to go to the fair. It really stinks when your single at this time and all your friends are married with their own families. I don't have a family that I can just pick a day to go to the fair and go. If I want to not go alone, which I do not want to do, then I have to find someone to go with me. Its really tuff sometimes to find people to let me tag along. If I wasn't so scared of the neighborhood I would probably just go alone. Then of course I would be the strange person everyone stared at.


It is also Halloween. I love to dress up. I love to be scared. I love to hand out candy. I love to see others dressed up. I love haunted houses, hayrides, mazes anything haunted.


October is also a busy month of birthdays and such. Boss's day is in October but I don't like my boss and don't stress much about that day.

Yes I would say October is a good month!

I want to cry...

I have a paper due on Monday. It is different from any other paper I have ever done in my college career. I have waited till the last moment thinking it was easier than it is. Every time I sit down to work on it I freak. I either start to cry or can't catch my breath. How am I going to get this done???
