Once again, I have slacked off on the blog. This month has been crazy! It has also gone by extremely fast so far. This month is filled with birthdays, including mine! That was a great week! My birthday is not usually a huge deal, but my friends at work made sure to make this year special. We had an ice cream cake to celebrate at work, they all got me a month to the tanning bed (which is greatly needed!), and a birthday crown that I had to wear all night. Needless to say, it was great, and I am very appreciative for it! Al got me my XM radio in my car that I'm too cheap to pay for. I love it! I got some money and jewelry from others, too. I'm a pretty lucky girl!
Destin has gotten so good on his feet. He is actually starting to run. The funniest thing is when he will go half way down the hallway and run back into the living room laughing with this arms straight up just waiting for Al to catch him or to fall onto the bean bag. That kid is a hoot. He also will jabber and hold his hands up like he is saying, "I don't know." He talks alot now! Most of the time it's just a lot of jabber, but a lot of times he will say "Da, Da" and "Ball." He likes to get onto his little play car that he has and play the music and lift the seat up and hide things under it. If we can't find the remote, that's the first place that I look now! He spent these past few days with Al's parents. We took him down to Cleveland on Sunday, and I met back up with them on Tuesday. Monday was also my fall break, so I was lazy all day and literally slept all day! Al says that something has to be wrong with me since I could sleep that much, but I say it was a much needed catch up! I haven't done that since before I had Destin! When I picked Destin back up, he hurt my feelings because he didn't want to come to me. He wanted to stay with his Mamaw Sharon. He just loves her to death!
Al started wrestling practice this week. I love wrestling, but we have so much going on this year I hope that this season goes by really fast! School is going for me... hard as ever but still chugging along.
The terrible news that I found out this week is that I'm going to have to have a new transmission in my car. The cylinoid(sp?) is messed up. It started doing it on Saturday, and it will lock up and shift really hard between the second and third geers. Once I get over 40mph, it drives fine. It's really stressing me out! My brother-in-laws dad works at the Acura dealership and is going to try and help me out with what he can, but he said at retail price it would be $3,800. WHAT!!?? Where in the world am I going to come up with that kind of money! That's almost as much as I owe on the car itself! I'm not really sure what to do, but I guess we will figure it out. It's always something, though. Right?
I'll stop venting about my car now. I better get back to writing this paper. Oh, the joys of being an English major! Papers pretty much every night! I'll try my best not to be so long on the next blog.
