New Roomate...

This week sometime my boyfriend and I are supposed to have our new roomate move in with us. My boyfriend doesnt know her and has never met her, but I met her through work. I am real excited to have another person living in the big ol' house with us, because when I am home alone I get really lonely. Also she is going to help with the cost of living. I am also a little nervous becuause I dont really know that much about her. I hope everything works out!

Stressed OUT!

As my first semester at Western is slowly coming to an end, I am starting to feel the pressure. It seems like everything, in every class is starting to come all at once. It is starting to get a little overwhelming. Between working all the time and trying to study for all my classes is getting harder each week. With my work load getting larger, I am not getting as much sleep as I need. Working till 11 at night then doing homework until midnight, then getting up at five when my boyfriend leaves for work to do more homework. Five hours of sleep a night is by far not enough for me. I am starting to find my self a little less attentive during my morning classes, which I'm afraid will impact my grade. But there is only four more weeks left and I am going to get through it one way or another. I mean there is always time over Christmas to sleep.

New ROOM!!

This weekend was a very busy one for me. On saturday my mom and I went to La Crosse and picked out my paint colors for my room. We also bought the new bedding. On sunday we broke down and started painting. It was fun, and I am really excited to see what its going to look like when its all finished. We painted one wall dark chocolate brown and the other wall white. Then we are going to paint all the trim the dark chocolate also. I am real excited to get my room done, so that I can get my bed in there and start getting my new house set up the way I want it.

New puppy

I experienced the hardest thing i have experienced this week. I recieved a call thursday afternoon from my uncle. I was at work so i didnt answer but i listened to the voicemail, and at that moment my heart stopped. My puppy Duke of 7 months was ran over and killed. Duke was my bestfriend, he went everywhere with me! So for the past few days i have been having to adjust to not having my Dukee around. So after i sat at home by myself Friday i came to the conclusion that i couldnt take it anymore and i needed a new puppy. So, on Saturday, my mom my boyfriend and i ventured out to get us a new puppy. We went up to an amish farm in cashton. My boyfriend got out of the car and asked if they had any puppies left and he said yes one male. I was really excited because we wanted a male, and i would have been heart broken if they didnt have any puppies left! We walked over the the kennel that they kept the dogs in, and as soon as i saw him my heart melted and I new he was mine! We have been having a good weekend getting used to the new puppy, but its a big adjustment for me and my whole family not have duke around. Now we have Cope!
