Well I guess I have already not done every day like I said I was going to, but I guess it had to happen at some point. This weekend was crazy, by I enjoyed every minute of it.
On Friday it was our friend Rob's 23rd birthday so George and I went to Hula's modern tiki grill with him. Afterwards we went bar hopping an I got so drunk. Rob had a thing for my friend Hannah, but they ate just on two different levels right now Hannah is looking for her forever man and Rob is basically looking for a one night stand. Well I started drunk texting Hannah telling her all the stuff Rob wanted me to say. I knew I'd have to explain myself the next day.
Saturday I went over to my friends Tim and Alexandria to help do arts and crafts stuff for their baby shower I'm helping host in October. I'm getting a bit sick of their baby. I'm guessing it's because I'm jealous. I worked all day on stuff for them and then after I went out to dinner with Hannah to apologize for everything I texted her. I'm glad she said no to Rob's advances.
Sunday George and I went to go see Resident Evil with George's cousin Beth and her husband Tim (yea there's two Tim's lol) which was awesome :) so yea, I was busy! I had fun though! Ready to start a new week!

How Annoying....
Yesterday I woke up from a text from my sister Belle. She wanted to know more about the fight I had with our Aunt Malorie. So I called her up and chatted for a while about the fight and other things. It turns out that she submitted this essay for a contest to win a trip to a haunted house from American Horror Story. This is so like Belle, she loves everything scary. She rarely plays a video game that isn't the horror genre, her favorite movies are horror. Guess what her favorite holiday is.....Halloween :) Anyway, if she wins she wants to take me at her +1 and I would HATE IT! Last summer our whole family went to Universal Studios for the first time. They have a haunted house there where real people can literally jump out at you and scare you. I was such a big chicken. I literally threw Belle in front of me and made her go first while I hid in her shirt. Why would she want me to do anymore with her is beyond me...because put into that situation again I'd do the same thing.
Wednesday was a pretty free day, I focused on the Kitchen to get ready for this week's orginization that I'll have to actually do on Friday.
Anyway, later that night I tried to get on my blog just to look at it and what do you know...it gets tagged for spam. Ugh....wonderful. Good thing it finally came off today.
My diet is going pretty well too. It needs some touch ups, but it's a work in progress.

Pretty normal day...
Well yesterday went pretty well, I started this blog, which is awesome since it was something I wanted to do for a while! I was able to clean what I wanted and I baby sat Brian. I was looking at creative blogs and I found this one idea that I thought Brian would really get a kick out of. You basically get a poster and tape off their name and then let them go to town with finger paint. Brian had such a fun time!
You can find instructions on how to do it here: http://attackofthetwins.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Anyway, after I put Brian to bed I stayed in the kitchen and played Sims 3 (laugh all you want, I won't here you because I'm too addicted) and about an hour before Beth came home her boyfriend showed up, Neill and he saw me playing Sims and I thought he was going to start laughing at me, but apparently this guy is a serious gamer.
So I was trying to get out of there and he hands be this magazine all about games and I end up spending a whole hour there talking about games to him. Wow huh? He's a good guy though, I think he'll help Beth grow up a bit. I just hope Beth can hang on to him...
Anyway, I came home and watched Face Off with George (love that show!) and then it was bed time...like that's about all that happened yesterday really!
I've been really upset about my weight for a while now and I can see myself creeping closer and closer to 300 (scary right?) so since I am on this spree of doing things my way because it works for me, I am going to push myself hard on a diet I used to do that got me down about 100 pounds before. It's a little scary though, but I just need to do it because I'm not happy. Is it healthy? No, but neither is staying like this. I'll explain more about it when I make my weight loss blog :)

Putting this out there...
I have no idea how to start a blog...
But I am going to try. Hello, my name is Holly. I am 25 years old, live in Phoenix, AZ and am currently jobless. I want to ramify that last part pretty soon. I have been married for one year on October 1st, and I have many, many animals. I have tried blogs before, but none really stuck and I am hoping this one will be different. Why, do you ask, is this one going to be different?
Well, I am sort of going on this rampage of "things went better when I did them my way" and so I am using this the way I want to, not the way everyone says I should. I'm sort of using this as a diary, hopefully a daily diary. Of course names will be changed and no one will ever know who I really am, but think of it this way...these are the daily accounts of a random stranger. It sounds pretty interesting to me at least.
Also, I am hoping to use this as a main port of other blogs I am going to create shortly. One of them is some orginization ideas, another is kids crafts. I would like to start a weight loss diet one and maybe even a hiking adventure one :) Yea, I'm pretty excited. If it gets big, maybe my lovely husband will help me construct a website.
But for now it is just this blog and just my daily accounts of life.
So I think I'll start out with the accounts of yesterday, since that's probably how it'll go most days. Yesterday was pretty weird. Usually on Monday's I am free to do whatever until 4pm, when I drive to the other side of Phoenix to help out a friend I made a few years back. Her name is Beth and she's about four years younger than me....she's 21 right now. Anyway, I met her back when I moved to Phoenix about...3 1/2 years ago. Back then she was just an annoying teenager. She even wanted to do a sleep over, which was weird...at the time I was 21...I hadn't done a sleep over since high school!
Anyway, she had some pretty horrible stuff happen to her. She was raped, her parents didn't believe her, her step father started abusing her. At 18 she left and I don't blame her a bit. I would've done the same thing in her shoes. The only issue was about 6 months later she was pregnant. Once her baby boy Brian was born she married the husband and it lasted....about another 6 months. He left and found a girl, Beth moved out and....well had nothing. For a long time she had to figure out how she was going to support herself and her son.
Her grandparents helped her move into a small apartment. She then decided she wanted to go back to school to become a nurse, but she had no transportation and no money for a babysitter. And that's where I came in. I don't know, I felt bad for her and her son. Here she is, going through a divorce and this whole custody battle and trying to better herself. So I volunteered. I like helping people, even though I get A LOT of smack for it.
Anyway, I usually babysit Mondays, Tuesdays and sometimes Thursdays. But she called me up and let me know she wasn't going to school because she hurt her knee and couldn't walk. So I was getting ready to have a completely nothing day when my husband George asked me to go to school with him. It was actually tough to consider because it's about an hour away, but I said okay anyway. He came home and we left and drove for ever and ever.
While he was at class I was in the library goofing off, mostly writing my book (yes I write and I love it!) Afterwards George came and got me and we left. We went to Denny's and had dinner and then horribleness happened.
See earlier that day I was taking care of all our animals when I went to go take care of the rats. Their water bottle was all chewed up! Like horribly! I thought maybe the dogs got it, but it was still connected to the cage. Anyway I was mad because those things cost a lot at pet stores so I started looking around for a replacement. I first tried a two liter bottle, which fit, but it leaked too much. I was about to give up when I remembered a spray bottle we just bought at the dollar store for a water spray (water cleans up a lot of stuff!) so I grabbed it and twisted it on and it worked! I was so pleased with myself I decided to take a picture of it and post it to Facebook (f*#$ing Facebook!!!) Well my righteous left wing Aunt Malorie decides to tear me a new one and starts ranting on and one about how I should be ashamed of neglecting the rats. Like literally treating me like I somehow lost 20 years of my life. I got really mad and replied basically telling her to shove it, that our pets are taken care of here and there's no need for her shaking finger. Then she replies, "Sorry Sweetie, but if the rats are eating their water bottle, they haven't had water in a while." Okay for one, how the hell would she know anything about rats? she barely has animals. And second, I live and breathe these animals right now! Yea, we have a lot, but we take care of them! The damn rats had water last night and if she expects me to wake up in the middle of the night to check up on them, she's crazy (but we all know that anyway!) But I get really mad so I leave another comment saying "Well, honeypie, since you aren't here and it was George and I who actually take care of our pets, you can't go accusing us for anything. Shame on YOU for judging so quickly." and then I left it there for like a half an hour before i took it down. And now my Aunt Malorie is no longer a Facebook friend and she is blocked.
I got angry, and I still am, it was rude and I was totally offended. And one good thing that came from un-friending her is not having to see all her crazy left wing political stuff! Don't get me wrong, I'm not gonna be crazy Republician, it's just that, yea I think people should have political views, but when you start shoving them down my throat is when I get annoyed.
But that's how my day ended, going to bed angry and I woke up angry too. I don't know, life is life. Anyway, that was yesterday. I guess I'll see what today brings and let you know tomorrow!
