I can't believe how quickly it's coming up! Christmas is almost here. Did you all get all your shopping done? I did! William still doing a little after work today. Yesterday he was here most of the day, we were waiting for Verizon to show up, to switch us over to Fios. When I was in California at my sisters' house, she had Fios, and it was very fast. I have yet to test the speed of the internet. But I am glad we have it. Unfortunately, it would cost like $300 to get out of the contract with DirectTV and switch over to the other company, so that won't happen until after the contract ends. If you are curious how fast your internet, then go to this website speedtest.net. My results are below! Not bad I guess, much better than how it was before. Interestingly though, I can't auto-date my WordPress, and I've tried and it doesn't seem to Continue Reading
About A Foot!
That is right, we got about 12-14 inches of snow, it's my first blizzard *all happy* lol, it's as amazing as I thought it would be. Fluffy white, of course, the more you try to shovel the heavier it gets, but I had a good time! I was exhausted after, but it was fun, and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. It was my first experience with this much snow, and I was just in awe over a lot of things, such as the salt they put on the ground so that the snow that falls on it, will melt it. Seriously I was like 'wow' lol. William must have thought of me as a weirdo lol. All I kept saying is "Omgosh that's so cool!" hehe. Being from California, I am not exposed to this much snow. I have to admit though, wearing regular sneakers to shovel snow is not ideal. I guess I wasn't prepared *oops* lol. So now I am on the hunt for a few items, to keep Continue Reading
Hustle and Bustle!
Now it gets really crazy, last-minute shopping, Christmas parties, and all kinds of stuff. As I mentioned in my last post, on Sunday we are going to William's sisters' house for Christmas dinner, which will be nice. But the weather is going to be crazy that night, I hear possible snow *brr* get cold just thinking of it. Although I welcome it, living in California most of my life, I saw snow, and if I did, it was up in the high desert area, interesting it snowed in the high desert. We were pretty close to Big Bear there, so we got a lot of that cold weather. But it was really nice, and getting a chance to see a lot of snow being dumped in this area is going to be awesome! I'm going to enjoy it as much as I can. Because you just don't know how long you have. I hope to have a nice time at this dinner, I won't really know anyone, and there Continue Reading
I’m a Toys R’ Us Kid!
Omgosh who don't like Toys R' Us, it's literally been years since I stepped into a Toys R' Us, but once in there, omgosh I wished I was a kid again :P I'd walk down aisles and think, omgosh I wish I was a little girl again lol, or something like that, or I'd say "They didn't have this when I was a kid". So I shake my head say "focus, focus" hehe. And we carry on looking for gifts for William's niece and nephews, it was really a lot of fun. I had to keep telling William, don't forget about Maddy, she's one of the twins, Jeremy is the other, and then there is RJ the oldest, they are really cute kids. So we spend a few hours in there, finding what he wanted to get them, but also admiring some of the things that we as adults can enjoy too!! So no snow, which is a good thing, because these windows on this house need to be sealed, Continue Reading
Ebay Rocks!
I've recently spent a lot of time on ebay shopping lol, and they have so much good stuff, although trying to outbid someone else to get what you want can be frustrating, especially if your ISP is slow, we have Verizon and it's okay, we are looking into getting FIOS, which will make things even faster ;) I've picked up a lot of good things for Christmas presents, there will be happy faces! Wow I started this post like 2 hours ago, and it sat here and I forgot about it, bad me lol. There isn't really much to talk about, just that you know doing the Christmas thing, getting ready for all that. Come Dec 20th we are off to Williams sisters house, for a family Christmas dinner, how nice I'm invited :D but I haven't a thing to wear, which bums me out! So I'll have to see if I can find a nice blouse that I won't freeze in somewhere lol. Then Continue Reading
