Oh, where to begin. Let me see... When Ted was locked up in Oshkosh Correctional, he came across someone he knew (someone I knew of, but never met) and they started talking, and this guy didn't have anyone to write to, or never received any letters from anyone, so Ted asked me if I would write to him once in a while. So I did. We wrote casually, nothing out of the ordinary, seemed like a very nice guy. I already knew his brother and sister in law, so I had a little heads up on what kind of person he was. Ok, so back in Octoboer of '05, my kid's father's mom and brother were in the middle of moving to Minnesota. His mom got a job at the casino, and I had just got one, but did not yet start. This guy I was writing back and forth with, was getting out in October, but I didn't know what day. I decided to come back to Rhinelander (which is where he was being released) and help Ted's mom pack some more things so she could do the final move to Minnesota. Well, the day we got there, one of my friends had called the house and told me that this guy (his name is Chris by the way)was released and was staying in the half-way house in town, and he told her to give me his phone number so I could call when I got into town. I called him, and we talked for about an hour and a half. He seemed like a really cool person and he was extremely easy to talk to. You all know where I'm going with this... but to make things short, we ended up meeting, and that was that for both of us. We had to be together. I told Ted to basically screw off, cause I was sick of his shit anyway, and Chris and I started dating in mid-October. Of course as soon as Ted's mom found out about it, she quit her job at the casino, and moved back to crappy Rhinelander, WI. So I was never able to even start the job I got because we were all supposed to live together. Oh well, so sad. Chris and I got engaged on my birthday of last year, we moved in together in a house we rent in Eagle River, WI. He's one of the sweetest guys I've ever met. A very hard working person and is a better father to my kids than Ted ever was. I'm blessed to have him in my life. Ok, I tried to make this entry as short as possible, because trust me, I could have made it at least 4 times longer going into more detail, but I'll be nice and not get that in depth. :) That's my update for now! Later all. |

Yes, I know, it's been a while. As far what's been going on. Well, I had my baby (Hunter) on February 14, he's absolutely precious, and he just turned 4 months old a few days ago. He's such a good baby, and is now finally sleeping through the night. SOMEBODY should have warned me what breastfeeding does to your boobies! Damn, my boobs now belong to the international house of pancakes... zoiks! They may not be that bad, but to me, they are. Paige is doing really well. Talking more than ever. She had her 3rd birthday on May 29th, and now she's definately entered the terrible 3's. Forget terrible 2's and terrific 3's... the "terribles" don't end until they move out on their own and even then they sometimes are a pain in the ass. I can't speak from experience, but I know younger people :)
Now, onto the Ted front... things are still going strong with us. We've had our fair share of major ups and downs in the past 10 months, but we're learning more and more about eachother everyday through mail and phone calls. Myself, Ted's mom and Paige and Hunter went to go see him last Sunday and Today. Last Sunday he wasn't doing so great, but he seemed pretty good today and in higher spirits than what I'm used to seeing him in. He's talking about wanting to take some college courses from prison through an internet college. He'd obviously have to do all his work through paper, but that's ok. He just wants to make the most of his time in there. I told him trying to get his own business through trying to get grants would be a good idea since trying to get employment if your an ex-con is really hard. Which I don't understand... your Parole officer wants you to get a job right away, but employers run a criminal check, so they're screwed. It's tough, but this is an option for him at least. I'm in Wisconsin right now, and have been here for a week, and I'm going back to Minnesota tomorrow. Gonna go do some fishin' fishin' fishin'! Gots to go. Happy Father's Day to all the daddy's out there! |

Only 2 more days to go until I have my baby boy! I'm excited, nervous and pretty much feeling lots of feelings right now about it. I'm nervous about the c-section, since it is of course a major surgery, and I have had it before, but still. I'm excited because I can't wait to see him and hold him. I'm crushed that Ted won't be able to be here for the birth, and I think he's even more so crushed than I. I am however looking forward to getting some sleep, that doesn't consist of me waking up EVERY hour on the hour to use the bathroom. So getting up every 2 to 3 hours to feed the baby will be a piece of cake considering it's better than getting up every hour.
I'm still planning on moving back to Minnesota after his first check up, which is when he's 2 weeks old. People here will miss me, since they keep trying to talk me into staying, but I know I have to go. I just can't wait until I get on Ted's approved visiting list so that the kids and I can go see him, and actually hug him and kiss him this time. It's amazing the things you take for granted on a daily basis, like hugging and kissing someone.
Anyhow, I'm on the phone, so I better wrap this up. I probably won't be updating for a while since I will have my hands full ;-) Later all. |

Yes, here I go again, moving back to Minnesota for the umpteeth time now. This time I'm moving out of my friend's house, storing some of my shit at some other friend's homes, and staying with Ted's mom and brother up until the baby is born (he'll be here definately on Feb. 14) and then I'm going to go to MN to live, again. Fun fun fun, let me tell you. Moving wouldn't be so bad, if I didn't have so much shit to move. If I had my own 3 bedroom home right now, I could fill it up with all the crap that I have.
Took Paige to the doctor again this past Monday, and she has another abscess on her butt, so now I just call her Pimple Butt, since I think that will be her native american name. We still have to figure out why she's getting them, since they really do hurt her, and sometimes prevents her from sitting comfortably.
Still trying to figure out how the whole stupid appeal process works, since I can't seem to get a hold of anyone to answer any of my questions. Who knows if we're even doing everything right, as far as filing it, and sending it to the right people.
Other than that, not much else is new. I have 5 weeks (1 actual month) to go, before I have the baby. I can't wait! The biggest curiousity that I have, is what he's going to look like, and how his personality will differ from Paige's. Guess I'll find out soon.
Time to eat, I'm starving... lataz. |

On Friday Paige and I will be heading back to Wisconsin, for a week. We're going to spend Christmas with friends, and Ted's Mom and brother. This Christmas is going to be a hard one, especially without Ted. I'm not really in the mood at all for it, but seeing the look on Paige's face when she sees a christmas tree lit up, presents, or Santa at the mall, makes me smile. It just won't be the same without Ted. Paige and I are going to go see him this weekend, which is a good and bad thing. He's not happy, so the mood when we go see him is quite dismal. He's never happy, except for last week when he heard good news that the other county judge filed for a motion to get his sentenced overturned... then while at the hospital with Paige last weekend (more about that later) my mom informed me that his mom had called and said that the appeal was never filed, because the intent to pursue it was filed too late. Hmmm... made me think, you have 20 days to file it... he was sentenced on the 24th of August, and we filed it on the 8th. Last time I checked, that was less than 20 days, am I right? So we're basically getting screwed every which way, and of course I'm the one that has to straighten out this mess. It all falls on me, and frankly, I don't mind having to take care of this legal shit, but right now taking care of a 2 1/2 year old, and being 8 months pregnant, is just really hard to handle in itself. I'm trying to stay as optimistic as I possibly can about this whole situation, but some days it's just way too hard to deal with. If God could grant me a miracle, to either help get him out sooner, or just getting us to deal with this better would be a big help. When Paige asks for her daddy, it just breaks my heart that I can't get him for her.
A little gross, the timid shouldn't read this... :-D
Last weekend... Paige had blood in her diaper, and of course I freaked out, called the clinic and made an appointment within an hour. She went in and was looked at, and the Dr. seemed quite concerned and made an arrangement for me to take her over to the Children's E.R. in St. Paul. After the paperwork, and waiting in the examining room for which seemed for 5 hours... actually it was 3 hours. They hooked up an IV to her, and started her on antibiotics. The diagnosis: Perirectal Abscess. It seems when someone has a hard stool, and it tears the bottom of the bowel/rectum, it can cause an infection which results in a lump right by the rectal area, and forms puss. When it's aggrivated, it bleeds, and the infection spreads. Actually, if it's not taken care of properly, it can cause death. Fucking scary! So they hooked her up to an IV for the night to see if it would stop the bleeding and pain. The next morning at 11 (Saturday morning) she had minor surgery to get her abscess drained. It took all of 10 minutes, put she was put under, and when waking up, she was quite amusing. It reminded me of her dad when he drank, the slur of words and the glazed look in her eyes. I couldn't help but laugh. She fully came too about 30 minutes after the surgery and ate ice cream, and went back to being her normal self. She's doing great now, and I'm so glad that we were here when it happened, since there is no Children's hospital anywhere near where we live in Wisconsin.
Anyhow, my dad is going to pick Paige and I up on the 26th of December, so that we can come back here and celebrate Christmas with my family. I don't normally celebrate Christmas anywhere else BUT with my family, but this year it's a little different, and next Christmas will be back here with my folks. Gotta make sacrifices in your life, and so far, I've made a lot. In the end, it's worth it. |

Okey dokey, well it's been a while since I've updated in here, partly because where I live now doesn't have the internet, and since I'm at my parents in Minnesota right now for another week, I thought I'd update.
I am now in my 7th month of pregnancy, and I found out it's a boy!! Yay! A boy and a girl, now I'm all set. I have to have a c-section, and since my due date is February 20th, I can schedule the date any day up to 10 days before the 20th, so I'm going to try for February 14th. My sister just had her baby boy on December 3rd, and I'm so happy for her, she never thought she could have kids, because she lost an ovary due to a surgery getting rid of her endometriosis. Well, the surgery never got all of the endo, and she ended up going to a herbal medicine doctor, and surprisingly the herbs she took got rid of it all together, and she got pregnant a year after it went away. She had to have a c-section like I did with Paige, because they gave her that nasty pitocin crap to help with contractions, and the baby couldn't handle all the strong contractions, and the heartbeat went all the way down to 40bpm, so they had to do an emergency C. Scary for her, but everything turned out just fine :-D
News about Ted, well... no word on an appeal yet, and we're so hoping a miracle happens that he can get out earlier than 5 years, but the way things are going, who the hell knows. He's scared to death, he misses Paige and I alot, and is so disapointed in himself that he can't be here for the birth of our son. He knows he screwed up, and he's so angry at himself that he put me through the pain, and has to put the kids through it too with him not being here.
It's a hard road, and there are good days and bad, and we hate being apart. He's actually at a county jail right now where my grandfather used to be the sheriff, which is only 30 miles from where I live, so I can go see him at least 3 times a week, and right now he's antsy for me and Paige to get back so we can go see him before he's transferred somewhere else.
It's amazing, I've learned a lot about the law,and how it works, just by doing research on something, and then your curiosity gets the best of you, and you just keep wanting to look more stuff up.
In any event, I gotta go start making some chocolate candies and cookies for Christmas, so I'm gonna get going, I'll post more later :) |

Figuring I could fall asleep last night because I took a sudafed, I instead ended up tossing and turning all night, and just reliving the day's events in my head. Sleeping alone after all this time is so hard. I'm so used to Ted sleeping up against my back, and at least feel the bed move through the duration of the night, but the bed was so cold and empty. I woke up crying again at about 5:30 this morning, so I decided to get up. I know how hard this is gonna be for a while, but never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have to be without him for almost 5 years. We have been through so much together through our relationship, and if he thinks I'm gonna give up on him now, he's crazy. I'll wait for him no matter what. It pains me to think how hard this is on him, and how hard it is for him not to see Paige, and not being able to be in her life now. He may have done what he's done, but there's no way in hell did he deserve this sentence. I'm so angry at the decision that the judge has made. Ted is not an evil person, in fact, he's good, and he'll give you the shirt off his back if you asked. This is just killing me. He may make stupid mistakes, but it's because of his immaturity level, not because he's a bad person. I just feel like I wanna go strangle the judge and the DA for doing this. They have no idea what they've done to our family. As far as I'm concerned, Ted's family, including myself and Paige are the victims here, not that skank Jackie. She sure played her part well, I'll give her that much. That's ok, she'll have her day. Revenge is best served cold. We'll get him an appeal and get him out earlier, and show her stupid ass. I best be going now, and try to go back to sleep, or something, I don't know. I have no idea what to do with myself anymore.

For any of you out there that ever read my journal anymore, which is probably very few since most of my 'online' friends are not on the computer hardly at all anymore if EVER, I thought I'd update anyway.
Let me see... today was pretty much a shitty day all around. First off my fiance went to his sentencing hearing today, and myself, our daughter, and our unborn child won't be able to live with him in 5 years. That's right, he was sentenced 5 years in prison, 5 years probation, and not only am I having a very hard time with all of this, so is his family (of course). I don't think I've cried so much in one day in my life. They were nice enough to let us say our goodbyes to him a couple of times, and he wanted me to make sure that I tell our daughter about her daddy every day so she doesn't forget him. This is like a bad nightmare. It's so soon after it happened yet, so it seems like it will never get better, but I know it will. We're going to appeal his case and see if we can get him a lighter sentence, since this is just udder bullshit.
He called from Jail a while ago, and told me to sell all of his guns, take the money and put a down payment on a house for Paige and I, and the baby (when it comes) so we'll have a place to live.
Nothing compares to the hurt I'm feeling right now, to love someone so much, and know you can't be with them for 5 years, it's killing me, and I know it has to be killing him. When I was talking to him in the conference room before they took him, I told him I'll wait for him, and that I'll write him all the time, and come see him as often as possible.
This is just still so.... shocking, I don't know what to do with myself right now, he's not here, and I feel like he's supposed to walk through the door any minute. It's amazing how one jealous little teenage twit has made all our lives miserable.
I would just like to add, that if you don't like me, and are jealous of me for any reason, then you have serious problems. I have never been out to hurt anyone, and never intend on doing so. That goes to you, Miss Jackie.
God- is there anything else you'd like to throw at me while you're at it? I'm asking now, cause if there is, just do it and get it over with. |

Ok, technically I'm doing pretty well considering all the stuff that's been going on lately. Ted's courtdate was moved to August 24th, which is fine and dandy, but now I'll have to go through the stress AGAIN before his trial. This time, it's a wee bit different, since I found out I was pregnant again 2 weeks ago. I mean both Ted and I wanted to have another baby, but the timing is just horrible, but I guess you just can't pick the timing. Last weekend Ted, Paige and I went to my sister's lake cabin in Turtle Lake, WI to just get away and relax. In a couple of weeks we're thinking of going up by the Canadian border in Minnesota and do some fishing with some friends. I told my parents that I have decided to stay here in Wisconsin for the time being, so that I can get on my feet, by getting a job, a place to live and etc. without their help. I just don't want to depend on my parents for everything in my life, that's not fair to them, and in the long run, not fair to me, cause then I'd be spoiled with just getting by too easy, and at least this way, I can at least try to do this myself. If I can't, I can't, but at least I know I tried.
So far in this pregnancy, I haven't been sick, except for a couple of weeks of nausea, which already passed, so now I'm eating everything in sight, and my waistline has already expanded quite considerably. Doesn't matter to me, I'd rather have a nice big healthy baby than rather worry about my figure. My back on the other hand has been horrible with my growing boobies. They've already grown two cup sizes, so yeah... just can't wait until I lactate and I start leaking all over, and they grow another one or two cupsizes more. Blech. There's a pretty picture.
Ok, Well I thought I'd post my update in here before I forgot, and before the year was up. Gotta take care of the little one... lataz. |

Ted called up his lawyer this morning, and low and behold, his trialed was pushed back once again to August 24th. The lawyer wanted Ted to have another evaluation before he could defend him properly, which is fine by me. Ted's truck is in the shop, and should be done tomorrow, which will be cool, cause he's been waiting for over a year to get his truck done, and has been driving his mom's Jeep for awhile now. He got the truck for free... and redid everything on there, except putting on a new cab. It looks really good, it got new tires last week, and tomorrow when we pick it up, we're gonna take it out for a spin. Ted's mom's boyfriend wants to sell me his car, which I do like to drive, it has power everything, yet it's a '91 or '92, it has a lot of miles on it, but rides really well. I think I may buy it after I look to see how much it's worth in the blue book. Then all I have to worry about is getting it registered, and insurance. I think I can pull that off, even though I have other bills I have to pay, I'm pretty good at making the dollar stretch, so we'll see. It's about quarter after 1, and I'm still up with Paige, since she will not go to bed. She's tired, but refuses to stop playing with her toys. The terrible two's are just that... TERRIBLE!
This Friday my sister will find out what sex her baby will be, and I hope to hell she has a girl, so I can give her all of Paige's old clothes. If not, then I guess I'll just have to sell them at a garage sale. OK, well my kid is whining, so I'm gonna see if I can put her butt to bed. Night all. |

Oh yes, as a matter of factly, I found out today that Ted will be put away for up to 8 years in prison... he'll get 2 years minimum. How nice it is that Paige won't have a father around for that long. All because of the stupidist CUNT that has ever existed, JACKIE DAVIS. Jackie Davis, 18 years old, who likes to sleep with a lot of men, and get her kicks out of playing games with people's lives. She will get what's coming to her one way or another. I HOPE SHE DIES OF AN STD by the time she's 19. Unbeknown to her, she will have a very tough time after this next trial, because word will get around even more of how much of a dirty skanky slut she is. Oh sure... here she is, she gets her virginity taken away from my boyfriend when she was 14... if she had such A FUCKING ROUGH time dealing with that, then why did she sleep with him 3 more times, when she got older? How much fucking sense does that make? Tell me that? I don't wanna fucking hear about how hard all this was on poor little Jackie Davis, and how fucking screwed up her head got because she lost her virginity at an early age. I will post this, since I know few people read my journal, and they're all friends, but try dealing with having your virginity taken from you when you were 7 years old. Yeah, that's right, some motherfucker, that I trusted grabbed me in the middle of the night while sleeping in his daughter's room with her, took me downstairs on the couch and had his way with me. How fucking nice, huh? He also did it to my sister, but she got the worst of it, he got her from the time she was 9, until she was 15... over and over again. He got off scott free... at least I think so. He comes from a wealthy family, he had to pay a million bucks to my sister, and he didn't even have to go to jail. And now something like this has happened to my boyfriend, when this fucking bitch consented to it, and he could be thrown in for up to 8 years. FUCK THE LAW, FUCK ALL THIS LEGAL BULLSHIT, CAUSE THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT. Those of you out there that have a signifigant other that you love dearly.. hold onto them tightly and love them like there's no tomorrow, and stop fighting about the stupid piddly shit, and be thankful that you don't have to worry about not seeing them in a few years.

Ok, so me and the man DID plan on camping this past weekend, but that never happened, since the weather here can't make up it's mind to be dry, or wet, or cold or warm, so instead... we partied, we fished, we went to the car races, hung out with friends we haven't seen in a while, and fished some more. You may ask why I enjoy fishing so much, but I don't see how anyone wouldn't like to. You get to be outdoors, enjoying nature, and catching your own dinner. Baiting my own hook, with crawlers, minnows or leeches doesn't bother me... taking fish off the hook, no problem... EXCEPT for bullheads and catfish, those fuckers are just nasty.. blech. While being at the races on Saturday, I devolped a lovely sunburn right on the top of my melon, which has pretty much made me sick for the past 2 days. I guess that's what I get for not wearing a hat. On a brighter note, my man's court date has been pushed back, since his lawyer will be out of town this entire week, so I have no idea when they plan on rescheduling it. This way we can at least spend the 4th of July together. We got a shitload of fireworks yesterday, and plan on inviting our friends out to a lake where we normally shoot them off on the 3rd. We picked up Paige yesterday from my aunt and uncle's house, and she was so excited to see us, she was running around, and dancing, and just ecstatic. She actually slept from 8 last night until 8 this morning, which was nice. She's eating her breakfast right now, but she's just about done, so I should wrap this up. Later ya'all. |

This pretty much sucks... I installed the 4th service pack for windows 2k pro today, and low and behold, when I restarted, the computer rebooted itself right before loading windows... I have tried many things, things that were suggested by my friend, and things that I tried to do on my own, to no avail. I'm a bit pissed, because I have all my designs that I have worked on, and my files that I have for my court reporting classes, and if I don't get it back, I have start all over on that... as far as my designs go, it wouldn't be a horrible thing if I lost those, since I send copies to my mom, but the one I just made up for my friend, I lost. My friend suggested using a linux bootup disk, since the drive that win2k is on is NTFS, and linux seems to be the only OS that can read NTFS. I don't know, I just hope I can get in there somehow. This blows ass. I really hate computers... yet I use the fucker everyday like an idiot. Microsoft is evil... just evil. |

Yesterday after Ted got home from work, he had an idea of taking Paige for a little ride, so we went into town, got some thirst quenchers, and went for a ride. we went to a big lake around here, so Paige could walk around in her little life-jacket, and when she tried to sit down, it would ride up on her, which was pretty funny to watch. Then we went through the back-roads and checked out the scenary and wildlife. Before we knew it, 3 hours had past, and she had a lot of fun.
I was gonna take her for a walk in her stroller today, but she took a late nap, so I'll have to wait until later. I'm just hoping it doesn't rain today, like it has been in the past 3 days.
Right now I'm downloading photoshop 8.0, so I can work on some designs, which I need to get done A.S.A.P.... I'm such a procrastinater. Oh well.
Time is running out... only a couple of weeks to go before Ted has to go to jail... not looking forward to that, and I'm sure he's not either. Paige and I will have to keep busy for a while, and I think us staying at my parents house in Minnesota will be a good idea, it would just be too hard to stay here the time he's in there.
All right, enough babbling, I should get to work...
And I'm out.... |

Starting off with Friday... well, Friday pretty much sucked, not much went on. The only thing I did is go with Ted to pick up this truck, so he could work on it, I had to drive it back home, and I could barely reach the gas or break pedal, but I did make it back home in one piece. Saturday was just so gorgeous outside! Ted's mom watched Paige for the whole day for us, so we could go fishing. It started off with just Ted and I, then our friend Tony, and then Rick and his girlfriend Paula joined us later... then we ended up alone again by 8 that night. After everyone left the lake, Ted and I did our thing ;-) yes, I know we're horndogs, but so what. We continued fishing until 12:30 in the morning... there were a couple of other guys that showed up for bullhead fishing around 10, and we chatted with them for a while, and they ended up giving us all of the bullheads they caught (which I have no idea why we'd want them, I don't think I've ever eaten them before, and they don't sound too appealing being bottom feeders. In any even... Sunday rolled around, and we were supposed to go up to Land O' Lakes to see Ted's dad and go fishing... we did go however, but it was raining out, and Paige was with us, so we decided to leave her lifevest at home. Well, of course after we get up there, the sun comes out, and starts to warm up. Go figure. With the lifevest at home, Ted and I decided to leave his dad's house early, and just take a drive, and we then stopped for icecream. We got home around 4... and we were gonna go to a friend's volleyball game, but Ted and I were so tired from the night before, and Paige hadn't taken a nap, we decided to stay home and veg for the rest of the night, and we did just that. I put Paige down for bed around 9, and Ted and I went to bed at 10, and fell right to sleep. That's the extent of the weekend, I'll update more later :) |

Oh finally! Some cooler weather today. If I was a man, my balls would have already been sweated off from the past two days. Although it was hot and muggy, nothing compares to the summers I was in Maryland and had to suffer through that heat. Ugh. At least there's always air conditioning. Let's see, not much new around here, except I have a couple of designs I have to work on, and try to do them while Paige is napping, which doesn't happen much anymore. She's yelling at me right now, to get her something to eat, so I must go tend to her. I'll write more later :) |

Well, me and the kiddo are back in Wisconsin after a very busy 2 weeks. We went down to southern Illinios and did the 8th grade graduation thing for my nephew, in which last Sunday he came back home with us. He's been working his tail off doing choirs around my parents house. Boy, is he a good worker. Paige also had her 2nd birthday over the Memorial Day weekend, and now she thinks she's hot shit now that she's 2.
Ted came this last Friday night, we did our thing... la la la la, then Saturday he went fishing while, Paige, my nephew and I played outside all day. So right now, I'm tired... I must have traveled about 1300 miles this past two weeks, and now I'm ready to just stay put for a few weeks, and relax a bit... if that's possible.
Other than that, not much going on right now. It's hot out, and I'm tired and a little cranky.. I just want to go to bed. Ok, I suppose I should unpack and all that fun stuff. I'll update more later. |

Starting with Friday morning, me and Ted got on the road around 10:30 or so, and headed for Minnesota. We got to my sister's house around 2, and from there we got ready to go fishing. I don't think we left her house to venture out until 3. We went fishing for a few hours, and didn't catch too much, and the weather was pretty shitty, so not much was hitting. So we came home, went to Wal-Mart, and bought some lake maps to look for more lakes in the area, and went to bed. We got up early Saturday and went fishing all day until 5 in some more SHITTY weather, came home, I took a shower, and we went to the casino. Ted won about $80 and I won about nothing. Then, about 10 minutes after that, Ted used the bathroom, and I waited for him out in the hotel lobby, and there came walking Vince Gill... just coming from the casino buffet. I didn't go up to him, since I'm sure he's sick of people bugging him, but there he was just a few feet away from me, pretty tall, I might add. After that, we went to the concert, where it was FUCKING COLD out, it must have been 38 degrees... I felt really bad for the people doing the concert. Joe Nichols opened (yum yum). After he played, they had the fireworks, which were AWESOME, they went along with the music that was playing.. all computerized. Then Vince Gill played, he said it was the coldest gig he has done. Poor guy. Despite the weather, it was a great concert, and they both did a great job playing in the cold. Then sunday Ted went back to Wisconsin :-( and my parents and I went to go pick up Paige from my aunts house. For some reason, she keeps calling me Jenny, or Jenny mommy. That little turd. She's not feeling very well right now, so she's been pretty cranky. Well, that pretty much sums up the weekend. I may ask my sister for some tickets to The Charlie Daniels band on the 6th of June, if Ted can get of work that following Monday, so we'll see. I've got packing to do for Paige and I tomorrow, since we're heading to Illionois on Wednesday. Not looking forward to that long trip, AT ALL. I would rather have Paige and myself back in Wisconsin with Ted, but I guess that's the way it goes. I ;promised I'd be there for my nephew's graduation, so I have to stick to my word. All right, I gotta go do some work for my mom, then I'm going to bed. Night all. |
