New Purchases!

So I'm sniffing around ebay today..which was my first problem, and I found the Cricut Design Studio that was being bid on that only had 30 sec left and it was at $35....so I put in a bid for $37 and won!! I've never really researched into the design studio but I had heard that you can weld letters together which is something I really have been wanting to do..and for $35 with free shipping...I thought it was a pretty good deal even if that is all I do with it. So after my first fabulous purchase....I did some more sniffing....and found the Lyrical Letters cartridge for my Cricut up for bid as well with 30 some seconds left with a bid at $40..so I put one in for $45 and won that too!!! I'm so excited to use my fabulous new purchases! I hope the sellers ship them asap!!!

New Stuff everywhere!

So I know I haven't written in awhile...but I have an excuse!! I've been working like 45-55 hours a week! Mainly because I finally got my own site!!! Yep, I am the new property manager of Griffin Court apartments. I have 13 buildings in Moorhead,MN. Pretty pumped. But I came into this site at the worst possible time..I had no cleaners, my one leasing agent was leaving in a week, my closest boss got canned (though I'm quite happy about that one) and I came in at the busiest week of the year for our business...but after some swearing, tears, and drinks...I did make it through. Things are going well, looks like I'll be getting Gold for my first month!

I've been scrapbooking a lot too...I've made a few cards, started working on Anthony's Love book for his B-day, started working on Amber's wedding book, and I have been keeping up with my 2009 book as well. Quite proud of myself.

Food Diary

So...I have decided...I'm fat...at least that is what my Wii Fit tells me...sooo...I have joined a gym...and am proud to say I have gotten up two mornings in a row at 5 am to go work out. I have also made a huge step..and when my boyfriend wanted to go to McDonalds last night..I went..and ordered a salad!! woop woop. Anyway, I have decided that I need to start writing down what I take in food wise...so here it goes.

1 cup of coffee
1 Bowl of Soup
4 yogurt pretzels
1 mini chocolate egg.... I'll add on later

Change

So alot has changed since I last written on here...first of all I got a promotion and am now a property manager in training...though I still haven't had any training...it's more like property manager in filling in other people's shoes while they get to go on warm sunny vacations and leave you in charge not knowing what to do...but I like it alot and it's a really nice change of pace which I needed. So far I have been at 2 different offices and I should be going to a 3rd in about 2 weeks.
I also have done some changes in my apartment. I am in the middle of decorating my spare bedroom. I'm making it into a scrapbook/library room. So far I have painted 2 walls pink and got a black corner desk and put up some cute black/white photos. I still need to get this cute black and grey speckled rug from target and a black slip cover for the couch from target and order the cute zebra chair from walmart.com...then the room will be complete...once I get it done I will post some pics dont' worry. I just think it will be nice not having to drag all my scrapbook crap to my living room...though I don't have a tv in the spare room..and I haven't decided if I want to put one in there or just put a small stereo...I'll have to figure something out..I could always just use my computer and put in a movie or something..who knows.
So I have the vacation bug because it seems everyone else is going on vacation... I really want to go to Vegas. Anthony and I were thinking about going but it doesn't sound like we can until October cuz we don't want to go there in the summer. But this summer I would like to go either up to the Northshore for a few days or go to Mount Rushmore cuz sadly I've never been there..I think we could afford to do that so I'm excited for something a little different anyway...Fargo isn't bad in the summer but it's getting kinda old...
Anywho...that's what I got!
