Another Gorgeous Day - I Hope It Stays Like This!

Wednesday, 30 September 2009 09:05 by Nikki

Wow! That is pretty much all I can say about the weather that we have been having and hopefully continue to have!

Yesterday, my step-dad's game was pretty exciting - they won their 3rd game (I think) of the season, and the season ends tomorrow! They were down in the last inning by 2, they were the last to bat. They ended up scoring the winning run, and only had one out against them! To tell you the truth, the way they began the game, they should have won by 10 runs in the 5th inning, but they lost it in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th innings..letting the other team gain confidence.

Tonight we have church and I get to teach Awana again tonight - which is a thrill for me! The kids in my class are extremely smart (I teach the Sparks).

Tomorrow is my step-dad's last game of the season, so I am definitely going to that game! I hope he wins!

* A while back I told you about my step-sister and her cancer that has come back and there is nothing they can do about it. Well, once again, she is 10 years old and she, as well as her family, need your prayers! There is only one Man who knows when she will go, so her family really needs your prayers as they are just sitting there and waiting until their little girl is taken Home.

Well I better get back to work and get everything done this morning, so that I can process pay this afternoon.

Have a great day!

Gorgeous Weather!

Tuesday, 29 September 2009 09:53 by Nikki

Oh man - the weather is absolutely gorgeous here! It is sunny and cool! I could get used to this kind of weather!

Tonight my step-dad plays his second to last game of the season and a bunch of us are going, so that should be a lot of fun - it starts at 6, so I will head straight there from work.

Speaking of work...it has been going by great today and I hope it continues like this the rest of the week!

* Duke is doing great - we have built him a little kennel type thing outside, so he doesn't have to be cooped up inside all day - he loves it!

Have a great day!

What A Beautiful Monday Morning!

Monday, 28 September 2009 09:29 by Nikki

On Saturday, my husband and I made some soap as well as just hung around the house. We did end up going out for a little bit to get his haircut and that was about it! In my eyes, it was a great relaxing day - and that is just what I needed!

Yesterday, we went to church, then in between church we went to my mom's to do laundry - then back to church. After evening service my mom, step-dad, grandpa, grandma, my husband, and I went to Pizza Inn and had a blast! Lots of stories being shared - which is always a great time!

Then when we got home from dinner, the Colts and the Cardinals were just starting - I am a huge Colts fan - being from Indiana. Anyways, the Colts and Cardinals got off to a slow start, but finally the Colts came alive and ended up beating the Cardinals 31-10!

Work is going to be good today - not too busy, but busy enough to make the time go by kind of fast!

Well I better get back to work!

Friday At Last!

Friday, 25 September 2009 09:24 by Nikki

Happy Friday!

I have a feeling that today, since it is Friday, is going to go by really slow...which is going to be annoying...but it happens. I brought my lunch today so that I can just eat here and then go home about an hour earlier than I usually do!

Tonight we need to go to the grocery store since we didn't make it last night. We desperately need a few small items...so the grocery trip is now officially planned for tonight!

On Saturday, my husband and I will probably go over to my mom's house, do some laundry as well as wash my car (it kind of needs it - not so much the outside, but the inside needs vacuumed). Also, I hope to make some more soap and candles this weekend. We have some made, but we go through the candles fast, so I need to re-stock...and we have quite a bit of soap...but I like making it so I will probably make some more soap as well!

Work is kind of slow today, and since I have all day to get just a few things done...it is going to go by SO slow!

UPDATE ON DUKE: Duke is doing a little too well...he thinks that he can play and run and jump, so it is really hard to keep him restricted. My mom is thinking of un-restricting him sometime in November depending on his limping and so forth. Right now, he is no longer limping at all, but he does walk a little funny. We were told he would due to the way that the ligament healed. So all is well with Duke!

Thursday - Busy, Busy, Busy!

Thursday, 24 September 2009 10:31 by Nikki

Wow. I am so glad that it is already Thursday, but today at work has been a little more hectic than I like. I don't mind busy, but I don't like feeling overwhelmed!

Tonight, my step-dad has a softball game, so we will be at the ball field at 8pm tonight to watch that...also...we need to go to the grocery store - which might be better to go before!

Tomorrow is Friday and I am SO ready for the weekend! We have absolutely nothing planned, and that is exactly how I like it.

On the weekend of October 10th and 11th, my husband and I are heading back up to see my nephews play their last game of football and also it is their awards ceremonies...so that should be a lot of fun!

Well, like I said earlier, work is HECTIC, so I better get back to it so that I do not get behind since I will be running errands for a good hour or two later on and that takes away from my office time...

Yay for Wednesday!

Wednesday, 23 September 2009 09:33 by Nikki

I cannot believe that it is already Wednesday! Yesterday, my husband and I went to my step-dad's softball game and they won! Wahoo...I think out of all the games I have watched, they have won two (and that is including yesterday's win!). It was a pretty exciting game...went into over time!

Tonight we have church at 7pm and I get to teach Awana's again...I am excited!

Tomorrow, my husband and I will go watch my step-dad play again...hopefully they will win this game as well!

*Update on my dog, Duke. He is doing exceptionally well and it is getting hard to keep him calm and restricted. Of course he is still a puppy, so all he wants to do is play, play, and play!

Well work is going good, I am definitely staying busy! I better get back to work, since we have a meeting later today and I have to have some things done and ready for it!

This Is Going To Be A Good Week!

Monday, 21 September 2009 08:43 by Nikki

Eventhough I had to come into work early today, I think this week is going to go by fast and is going to be a good one. My boss is out sick today, which is weird because I was a little sick this weekend...probably something going around!

On Saturday we went to church for the end of the Missions Conference, then we had a big church putluck, then we watched all the children of our church hand out gifts to all the Missionaries and their families. It was a lot of fun and pretty sad to see all of the Missionaries have to leave, but I know they want to get back and continue God's work as soon as they can. Every single Missionary there had more passion for what they do than I have ever seen in anyone and it was awesome to see that.

On Sunday, we went to church, came home and laid around until it was time to go back to evening service, then came home and slept until this morning! I got a great's night sleep and was ready for this morning.

Work is going good. I am staying pretty busy, which makes time fly by!

Well I better get back to work!

Friday - I am so ready!

Friday, 18 September 2009 16:05 by Nikki

My title pretty much sums it up! I am SO happy that it is Friday! I just want to be home right now and stay there until Monday morning!

I think one of my wisdom teeth are coming in and it does not feel good to say the least!

It is almost time to go home and I am SO glad!

Well work got busy for a second there and now it is already time to go home! I will update you on Monday about what all I did over the weekend and more about the Missions Conference that is currently going on at my church!

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

Work..Work..Work!

Thursday, 17 September 2009 08:50 by Nikki

Work has been going really great, but it has been super busy! We have been working on projects as well as trying new things out, so it has been hectic the past few days and going to get worse next week as we have to meet a deadline of next Friday!

Other that work, life has been hectic itself! Last night was the first night of our Missions Conference at my church and it was AWESOME! The conference continues tonight, tomorrow night, and then Saturday as well. I am excited to hear all the different Missionaries speak!

Also, our lives have been hectic trying to get our other site up and running, because we feel that it is important! Our other site is usagainstabortion.com . You should definitely check it out and let us know your opinions...obviously we are still working on it, but it helps to have other views!

Well like I said work has been crazy lately, so I better get back to it before it gets too bad!
