Hey hey. It's been a while since I was on last so I thought I would let you all know whats going on up where we're at. I'm into my second full week at my new job and I realize now that it's not all bad. I'm in the rent-to-own business, so the hardest part of my job is that I have to go to customer's homes and ask them when we can expect them in to make a payment. Some people do not like that we go to their homes and "harrass" them. I am a mellow, almost too kind of a person by nature, so I have a hard time dealing with the occasional unruly customer. So far, the benefits of this new job outweigh the negatives. I like to help people so I think this will work out for Leola and I in the long run.
Last Tuesday was my birthday. Hooray. Usually I tell everyone and their grandma's that my birthday is coming up, lol, just to see if I'd get anything from anyone. This year it was a little different. It just seemed like any other day. I almost forgot that it was my birthday until Leola reminded me of it haha. This birthday will be one that I remember because when you spend a special day with someone you love and without gifts that distract you, you're day becomes even more special. But I want to thank all of you who called or sent me a message on Facebook to wish me a happy birthday. Bonus: Leola made me a birthday pie. The best pie I've ever had.
As far as Thanksgiving Day, Leola and I decided to have our own dinner at our place. My grandma invited us over but my aunt and uncle are coming down, and instead of making dinner they are going to order it because they have to work the day before and after the holiday. I'd rather stick to the tradition of cooking, and it would be cheaper for them if we would have our own. I also think its time we start traditions of our own, and still continue with the old.
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving this year, and I'll put some pictures up once I get a chance. Happy Turkey day, and God bless.

Halloween '09
Hey y'all. I hope that you all had a great weekend doing what you do. Leola and I finally got to take Alayna out trick-or-treating. We had a blast! Alayna dressed up as Tinkerbell and Leola was a cat thing. I got to go as a low-cost vampire. (I bought a $4 cape and dressed in a white shirt and black slacks haha). Our pastors' daughter went with us too, so we really got a lot of loot with us four dressed up.
The weather wasn't that bad for the end of October. It was warm all the way up to sundown, then as the night went on it got a little chill. Alayna ended up wearing her sweater under my sweater at the end of the night, lol, so she ended up getting double the candy for being a champ and fairing the cold breeze to get her pumpkin filled.
All in all, it was a good weekend. The day before, my dad came down from Denver and stayed the night with us. Leola and I really love having our family over. We also got to see my grandma Romero and I wished that I could say that she is doing good. Us going over to see her really lifted her spirits.
Oh yeah. Candy corn is the worst candy that exists and has ever been made, along with the other "flavors" that they make too. Don't eat it. Ever.
But that's all I got. Have a great week! God bless
