Another one down!

Sunday was the Cleveland Walk to defeat ALS (Lou Gheriggs disease) That I did with cady and her family, I had a good time. I had to take Nevaeh, but she had alot of fun as well she got a balloon corsage and her face painted, she got a rainbow and I got a footprint. I feel horrible that I was not able to raise money for the walk.  We then went out to eat with Her family to Yoconos a really nice Italian Restaurant, and then to JoAnne Fabrics and the summit mall, Then we came home and both Neveah and myself fell asleep face down in her homework. I can understand because of the day we had saterday!

Saterday Morning We woke up, got ready to go to the balloon affair in Ravenna, and went and picked up Aiden for Angie, And we went... We got there met up with my mom and my step sister, got neyas hair wraped and her face painted... then I got this bomb pair of sunglasses for like 5$ it was fun, I bought the kids inflatable hammers and My sister and Nevaeh Big blow up cats! Neya got a pink one and Miranda got a purple one, after all of that we went to my uncle Tims, picked up my cusion Jackie and watched balloons take off and then walked to sunbow valley walked around bought crowns got snow cones, And a huge bag of kettle cooked pop corn the bag was as tall as aiden, and watched the fire works, afterwords Josh Neveah Jackie and myself all went to Joshes sisters house for the night, needless to say thats why both neya and myself were so tired, she didnt go to bed, till almost 3 am and we got up at 6...

Friday Night was uneventfull night at Angies, But thursday was alot Nicer, I went to Dave and busters for my birthday, only 7 out of 30 people showed up... kinda depressing 5 of those people canceled last minute, Joshes Parents being 2 of them, but they had a legit Excuse,  But it was Myself, Josh, Jackie, Larry, Sandy, Cady, Jacob, And his little brother Cory. We had a blast... then we came home and got drunk Just an Awesome night!

wow this was an backwards post... well I will try to keep my life A bit more updated on my blog!

Crazy week...

OK so this last week was completely nuts Tuesday night on my way home I hit a blown semi tire I had no way around it, it happened while I was getting off the interstate it was either hit a guard rail or a ditch I didn't think that it would harm my car, but it did.... I got home opened Nevaeh's Car door and I hear this wired sound and I start looking for it and I look at my rear drivers tire and you can literally see the tire deflating, I HAD A PANIC ATTACK! Josh had to start his first day of school on Wednesday, so I had to get it fixed... So I called AAA to get it changed or see about plugging it like I did to the front tire, But they don't do that they just put my doughnut on and left, so Nevaeh and I had to Get up super early and leave with josh when he went to school because we live in the middle of nowhere and didn't want to put all of the Mileage onto the Doughnut so I went to one place and he said look I cant plug it for you but If you go buy a used tire I can put it on for you, So I went up the road to the place where I normally buy my tires from, The guy was completely rude, He first asked if I wanted them to try to plug my tire, and I told him I already was told it couldn't be repaired, so he got snippy and then he took my car back and came back out (mind you Nevaeh was being a perfect little angel in there she sat still and watched the TV in the waiting room. He came back out and says "I don't Have a used tire for your car and would you Like to buy a new one instead so I asked him how much that would be and he told me 91$ I said sorry I cant do that today, he then looked at the service tech and Told him do whatever get her out of here.... I had never felt so insulted in my life, kinda like well when I do buy a set of new tires I wont be going to Him ever again.... Well Josh and I kept Getting into it Like crazy that day, But we eventually ended up at Wall-Mart that night, for the tire. Wednesday night we ended up at apple bees with our friends Nicole and Shane, and had a fun meal.  

Thursday we woke up around noon and started getting ready to go to the mall we went and got his check, Picked up Larry then Nicole and went to the Boardman mall And split up, Josh and Larry went Looking for my birthday present and Nicole Nevaeh and I all just went and shopped, Had an awesome time!!! got Nicole dropped back off and then Josh, Larry and I took Nevaeh to the park and played with her, then went home and My cuson Jackie came over (who is also dating Larry ) Went to walmart And Taco Bell and then home, After they Left Josh wouldn't Let it go till I opened my birthday presents so I did I got a beautiful Flower necklace with pink Sapphire  for the stones, and a ring that had 2 flowers on it one pink and one green the pink flower had a small green stone in the center and the green  one had a small pink stone in the center. I am in love with the ring!!!
Friday Nevaeh and I went to My cusion Angela's and then to a potato festival! I let the kids go on 1 ride it was a small roller coaster that went around a little track and then we went and got a large French fry to split between the 4 of us we had a lot of fun then we went back to her house and watched the rocky Horror Picture show! It cracks me up that a 4 year old and a 2 year old like the movie and watch it every time Angela and I watch it!

Today my plan is to go get ready and take Nevaeh, Angela, Aiden and myself to Art in the parks and see that so I will have to blog bout that later.... sorry for the ridiculously long post I just needed to type all of that

Love is not a matter of counting the years... But making the years count. Michelle St. Amand

Love is not a matter of counting the years... But making the years count.
     Michelle St. Amand


I like this quote, on September 14th Josh and I will have been together 2 years, Not a big milestone for most but for us it is, Its the most time either of us have been in a relationship.

Last Night Josh told me about some guests that he seated at work, They were an older couple, and the older woman told Josh to take her arm and walk her to the table, she then told him that they were celebrating her 90th Birthday and their 63rd wedding anniversary!

I find that so amazing Because the statistic of a marriage out lasting the first year is a 50/50% chance
A Marriage lasting that long is something that I want! I think that I can Have that with Josh, Although I may be 19 I think he is the one, He is my Best friend, and he Knows Me, all of me, and he does not run away!

Josh also Is loved by most members of my family, I think everyone at least Likes him, which is very important to me that my Mom and Dad Both like him, My mom used to not but she said she is glad that I have someone who treats me as good as Josh! 

So From today On I think I am going to quit thinking Another year gone and passed I'm going to think another day together what a blessing! or today is a brand new day I am going to spend it with him and make it something I want to remember until the day I die!

#57 Is now Crossed off of my list,

Today I made my own batch of spiced hot Apple  cider,
and let me tell you it was a pain in the ass, First my grandma was complaining because she was trying to use the stove, Then it took over 3 hours to make, and the Biggest pain in the butt was squeezing all of the apples through cheese cloth. It was so gross pushing mushed up apples through the cheese cloth it just reminded me of vomit.

But all in all the apple cider was good, the only thing I did wrong was let the cider cook down to far, but I fixed that by adding 2 bottles of water and some more cinnamon.

Nevaeh Loves it, she drank like 3 cups of it, and of course so do I!
I am waiting for Josh to come home, I think He wanted to add liquor to it.

My Cousin Angie  helped me cut up the apples so tomorrow I will probably take some of it to her house for her to try since she left mine before it was finished!
 Have you ever made homemade apple cider or pie?

My Guilty Pleaseure,

Ok so everyone has a guilty pleasure,
and I think that Mine is Smoothies, I get them from Sheetz I get them From McDonalds, I get them from anywhere that Has them and  I absolutly love it.
the best part about it is they are healthier then Chocolate or Sweets, I just have to get in the habbit of ordering a small instead of whatever the largest size that there is.

I'm weird and do not like coffee so when we go through the drive thru In the mornings I have to get a smoothie!
now I will admit I somtimes overdo it on chochlate (more than I'd Like to admit.)
     Now I Have to ask, what is your guilty pleasure?

Interview

Today I had an interview with a place called west corporation, It starts out at 8.75 an hour and the hours are from 4:30 pm to 1:00 am I Don't know if I like that its in warren, and after 90 days it goes up to 10.00$ an hour and has good benefits, But they don't want to start me until in October. But I have my Second Interview at 9:00 am tomorrow. I also received an email from A plasma donation center to set people up for their donation so I replied and hopefully hear from her, I would rather do that than work in a call center.

I am also currently looking for a new hairstyle to get on Thursday when I go visit my mom, I will be getting my hair done then,  so far I have found one or 2 things, I will post before and after pictures if I get anything drastic.

Also, I am going to be calling Raphael's hair school to set up an appointment for me to go back to school for hair design. 

I am going to head to sleep now as I have to be up in about 3 hours.

Me.

OK, So I probably should have wrote an about me for the first post but I wasn't thinking I just was so excited over the 101 in 1001 challenge.

My Name is Alicia, My Birthday is September 13th and I will be 20. I love Yellow and purple, Hearts, Stars, Keys, Locks. My favorite animals are The seahorse, Jelly Fish, Crabs and Octopus.

My Favorite bands are Blue October, and Weezer. I love Listening to Them, Also Lately I have Fallen In love with "The Rocky Horror Picture show".  I love Girly Movies, Comedies and Horror movies, I'm not really into science fiction or Thriller action type movies. I love to play card games and board games with a group of people. I think My favorite one is skipbo.

I Have one of the most amazing boyfriends I could ever ask for, He puts up with all of my moodiness, and weirdness, along with my weird and crazy family (which I don't think that I would ever trade. ) He has a little girl She is 4 going on 5.

I love Mexican food, and to cook, I really try to be organized and keep everything clean but it doesn't  happen that way alot of the time because I am a typical Virgo I come up with ridiculous organization systems.

I am a nationally certified medical assistant and I am also a certified phlobotomist, Medical coding and billing specialist, and pharmacy technician, with all of this why do I not have a job you may ask it is because of the economy and the over saturated medical field. I want to be an Rn and work in  a hospital. I am interested in Helping people and doing volunteer work.

I Do not dress girly But I am A complete girly girl at heart, I just don't feel comfortable dressing that way because of how heavy that I am. But I love Makeup, Hair, Girly Clothes, Nails everything of that matter. I went to school for cosmetology in my junior year of High school but did not finish because My mom is a cosmetologist and does not make any money at it, But I learned alot from it and plan to go back and finish it.

I am not sure of what my religion is, I believe in God, and Jesus, I'm just not sure which one out of all of the religions that I am. I am one of the most open minded people you will ever meet I don't judge I can say that I care about alot of things that I should not.

Well I guess I am done writing about myself for right now, If Any one wants to know anything about me they can ask!


THANK YOU!
