Anyways! It is 2009 baby! Yay! I just know this year is going to be a good year! I can feel it. I cant wait to see what God will bring into my life. Josh and I are doing great. We are still happily married…imagine that! Well I hope to post again soon with more good stuff from 2009!!

Take Care everyone!

XOXO

The first night we stayed on the beach until it got dark around 8pm!! So we took some pictures of us!

Trina saying goodbye to the beach! So sad to leave….

One thing that is nice is Josh and I both have webcams. So we get to see each other a little…well, when his connection doesnt go out! ha I think we have talked a max of 5 min. on the webcam. We mainly use Skype. I’m just happy I can still talk to him.

But..I really do miss him. You dont realize what you have when they are here. I realized my life has been Josh and I for so long and when he leaves..its like “now what”. ha There really is a REAL world out there. We are so used to Josh and Lacey World I guess. Dont get me wrong, we have TONS of friends that we hang out with on a regular basis, But when he isnt home its like, eh I’ll just stay home.

I am supposed to go to a friends cabin Aug 14th, 15th, 16th and come home the 17th when Josh gets back, but I dont know. We usually go together and it wouldn’t be the same. But we’ll see. :/

17 more days to go!! The count down beings!

Josh and I the Day he Left. Cant we just turn the clock and make it Aug 17th!!

Maybe tonight

So walking went well last night. Josh came along. It was funny because he thought it was going to be a leisurely stroll. HA I’m power walkin’ baby! So we get to 1 mile, everything is going good. We are passing the old folks on the porches. I think we got a mile and a half he says he’s feeling it in his legs. I think we slowed down alittle bit. But we made it again to 2.5 miles.

I really think it is important to have a good relationship in everything. He supports me in everything I do. I am just happy to have a wonderful husband like him.

Josh is officially leaving for Argentina/Brazil on Sunday until August 17th for work. This will be the 3rd time this year, but 4th time for him there. So if you all could keep him in your prayers and I will for sure keep him in mine!

Talk again soon! Have a great week everyone!!

Frank before he got RED!

Josh and I…a little tan..a little red

I dont know who fell in…maybe Josh!

Josh and Phil

and this is how the day ended after 7 hours in the sun..

My workouts are going great. Josh and I played an hour of tennis on Sunday. Very Hot! So it was cut short. I am about to go walking tonight, I hope it doesnt rain!! And yes dad I’m doing good!! I walked 2.5 miles last week and I am planning to go 3 times a week.

BTW- Thanks for all the support!

I’m ready…I think.

I mean, all I need to do it cut back on Mcdonalds, cut back on the sweets and snacks, cut back on the SWEET TEAS!!( Im really going to miss those!), go walking or running a couple times a week, do some workout videos for a few hours a week…not too bad right?

I need some support! It’s hard to do this alone!

I need motivation..

Tomorrow….I am going to start walking 2.5 miles after work. I need to do this for me, no one else.

Wish me luck!

Ok so I work at a bank..it’s great most days. I just wonder about people sometimes..

50 Things I have learned by being a bank teller

1. I know everyone in the world, so I never need to ask for ID.

2. ‘I’ll be with you in one moment,’ means ‘Come right up here into my business and breathe your popcorn breath in my face for a while.’

3. Every bank in the world steals money from its customers, particularly the ones that don’t keep a register.

4. I’m always kidding when I tell people a check is not any good. I’m a good kidder.

5. I know the balance of every account at the bank.

6. I am at the bank just because I feel like it; my window isn’t actually open when I say, ‘May I help you?’

7. I know everyone’s account number.

8. I know everyone’s address.

9. I don’t understand how banking works.

10. I have to do whatever the person who gave my customer the check said.

11. I don’t know how to count.

12. I don’t know how to add.

13. I don’t know what the date is.

14. I can read everyone’s mind.

15. If I ask for your social, Im trying to steal your identity.

16. I know when every new coin will be arriving.

17. I know how much everyones bills are for the month.

18. We dont sell stamps.

19. We are just here for fun on most holidays, were not really open. We love when you rub it in.

20. When someone asks how you want your cash back, you are supposed to tell them after you get your money back.

21. Apparently people have different definitions of commercial.

22. Your time is more important than mine. I have no life. When you show up 5 minutes before we close to make 10 deposits or open a new account, we dont mind.

23. Everyone with the Bank name tag is related.

24. I am also your secretary.

25. We love to place holds on your checks for fun, we are the only bank that does it.

26. 13 hours and 10 minutes is not enough time for people to do their business.

27. I am in charge of the never ending popcorn, smarties, and coffee.

28. It is polite to ignore someone when they say hello.

29. It is my fault when someone cuts you in line. I should have been paying attention to you and not your money.

30. I know what a checkingdepositwithdrawal for savings is.

31. Being rude should make me want to help you more.

32. I am not really human, I should not make mistakes.

33. It is okay to go into someones office when their door is shut.

34. I have a secret collection of licenses in my cubby.

35. I cant hear. I need you to ding the bell 5 times in a row.

36. The sign that says Next Window Please is just for decoration.

37. I make people wait on purpose, its fun to make them mad.

38. I know everyones pin number to their ATM card.

38. Fraud isnt real, I should give customers exactly what they want.

39. The coin machine is my favorite thing to do.

40. The bank gives out free poinsettias at Christmas, we order them for you, not the bank. Display only means whatever you want it to mean.

41. Please and Thank You are forbidden words at the bank. We hate to hear them.

42. Checking and Savings deposit slips are EXACTLY the same, we just like the color pink and wanted to make them more colorful. Marking through the word savings changes the deposit slip completely!

43. When I tell someone the same thing over and over, Im just doing it for fun. I like to waste my breath.

44. We will break the rules for anybody as long as you gripe for more than 10 minutes.

45. I am a professional coin counter. Even when the machine is broken, I will count the coin for you by hand!

46. I am psychic; when you call I can recognize your voice and pull up your information. My computer is voice activated. Its that fancy technology we have.

47. You dont have to tell me that youve been with the bank for 50 years… I can tell.

48. Even after 4 years, I am a new teller to anyone who has never seen me before. If Ive never met you, I have no idea what Im doing.

49. I make the rules for the banking industry. You can blame everything on me!

50. I’m an idiot.

Hello all you bloggers! I am trying to grasp what a blog really is..

Do I write about how my day is going?

Is this kinda like an Xanga? (Ya know like way back in the day….ok..I’m only 23, but ya know, back in the day when everyone had an Xanga)

Can I vent?

Will everyone see this?

Do you post pictures like a myspace or facebook? (Cause I already have one of those and I really dont want to post pictures on here too)

Do you add friends..do they have to accept you as a friend?

ok…help me out here..what is a blog?

Mom, Dad, Trina and Derek…I know you know, explain.

K thanks bye.
