Looking back on February

Here we are a day left in February. Isn't amazing to look up at the calendar and see what you did. I look up and go did that really happen. Life certainly goes fast. We had a few celebrations this month including Johnny's. But others that turned another year were my dad, Johnny's nephew and I think a friend's baby turned two. But we don't see each other alot.

We double dated for Valentine's Day with Austin and Cass. That was fun. Although I could have done without the gun show in Portland. But Johnny did find a pistol that we took home. And we got our taxes done this month. These are the highlights of the Samuel's February. I hope everybody else's was memorable in someway or another. Here's to March!

Johnny's 29th Birthday

For Johnny's birthday we didn't do anything exciting. Unless you call having your mom come over and cook for you exciting. Although it is exciting for me because I don't like to cook all the time. We had a yummy cheese enchilada casserole. It was so good we had it for leftovers the next night as well.

If any of you are wondering what date Johnny's bday is because you must have forgotten it, it is the 17th. Ohh and I was talking to my mom about it being Johnny's birthday and she has offered to pay for a hotel on the coast for the weekend. Thanks Mom, we are going in March. It is suppose to be a birthday present for the both of us. My birthday is in April.

Mom's are the best. I'm grateful for mine and Johnny's both. I don't know what I would do without them. I'm glad that we can still lean on them a little bit every once and a while.

How's your week...

Sitting here this evening and thinking back on the craziness of the week. Monday and Tuesday were nice and normal. Wednesday I got called in to work at the LBCC preschool. I worked until six and somehow was suppose to be in a class at six too. I was on campus to say the least for too long on Wednesday. Thursday I worked a full day and then went to dinner with Johnny and his mom and friend and his now fiancee. Friday I worked a full day then babysat a child that was in my classroom that evening. On Saturday, or Valentine's Day, Austin and Cass joined Johnny and I up to Portland. We went up to Powell's Books and then ate at Sweet Tomatoes and then ended up at Fry's. Today I relaxed, cleaned the living room and then babysat this afternoon and evening. But tomorrow is all for me. I can't wait. I feel bad for the dogs because Johnny was away most of the time I was. He was socializing with friends. Tomorrow I'm going to spoil the dogs with some new toys. I feel totally guilty for leaving them beyond hours that they should be left at home. I'm sorry Mollie and Daisy...hopefully the rest of this month won't be as busy.

Just had to type out my busyness. Make sure it was real I guess. So much to think about right now it's amazing how I just go with the flow of the day and end up in my bed each night.

Funny Things

I just had to share because I'm sure it has happened to someone else too. I recently replaced my headlights in the car. I get the ultra lights that are much brighter than the regular headlights. It helps out when I'm driving home on the highways because the highways themselves don't have lights on the roads. Coming into town I got flashed. As if to say my high beams are on, but there not. My question is: how should I respond back to the car coming toward me? Do I actually show them my high beams or let them think that I'm not paying attention to me? I have been wondering this for a while. I didn't car to respond tonight but once I get really irritated I'll eventually start showing my high beams. It was a nice jester but if I don't respond the first time why flash me again?

My mom is going to Phoenix this week to watch the premiere of my Uncle's movie. A documentary of music. Drums is the focus point. At least I think. I can't wait to here how it was. If life wasn't so busy at the moment it would have been great to go too.

Nothing else to update on. Just filling up my calendar just as fast as I did last month. I know it will slow down for summer since neither of my jobs will be open then. But I am now looking for a more permanent job. Going from place to place during the week isn't as fun and thrilling as I thought it would be. Sometimes it can be a headache. Again my motto for life right now is: you live and learn. I sure am doing a lot of it right now :0)
