The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I've been avoiding the dial up like the plague for some reason.



I've been cleaning and watching old movies.



Not much changing at the moment.



Aurora's excited about going to school this September. I'm excited to have some time by myself four days of the week. It's going to be a big change.



Since she's going to be going to school this fall... I guess I'm going to be going to the beach for a week right before it happens.



Nothing like spending a week in a five bedroom condo! Heck yes! We're probably going to the Medieval festival too, a battleship, and a snake place.



Aurora will love it.



I've never been to the beach either. I can't wait. The fact that it's a private beach makes it all the better. =) No dealing with rude people or too many people period.



I'm excited.

So we're finally home now, well earlier today. The rest of the fridge and freezer have been emptied and the fridge and freezer scrubbed insanely. Yuck! It was a mess from the sticks of butter alone. =[



After a week of no power or phone and staying with my mother... I'm glad to be home. Aurora's so happy to be back here and I think Brett is too.



On the third, I hit my mother's car. I backed right into it. O_O No damage on either end but gosh, I was freaking! I was distracted by everything going on in the car. UGH! Never again.



We still have no cable and won't for two to three weeks. So Aurora's busy watching movies. Poor babe. She just got her television in her room and the cable is out.



I'm tired of AT&T but heck, I can't get any other service out here for the telephone. =[ I'm stuck unless we get a cell phone... but it only works in two areas of our road, if that. And no where in our little town, village, place. I don't know what this place is considered.



So many people got it worse than us. I'm happy and extremely grateful that we didn't get it as bad as them. Some people lost their whole roofs... trees came down on houses... some are still without power.



I'm a little upset about losing everything in our freezer and fridge... all that meat in the freezer... but we could have lost our house instead of just that. Thinking of it that way really puts my frustrations to rest.



Over $300 worth of meat alone. We just got about $170 worth of food for the fridge and freezer today before coming home.



The dog and puppies ate really good. All kinds of yogurt and stuff. =] Heck on two separate days they didn't want dog food.



I got stuff to do so I don't know if I'll be on here or not. A bulldozer might be arriving in the next few days. Yay!

Are dogs allowed to eat yoghurt?

My puppy likes bananas.

But she's silly.

Hahaha! I honestly don't know. They didn't eat the strawberries in them. =] So I guess they ate the parts they wanted to. *shrugs*



I miss you!

We've been without power and telephone since the 29th of June. We technically have power now. But we were told to turn off our box in the house since AEP is putting in a new pole. Our pole was knocked down in those horrid winds. They cut a big path through the woods for the pole truck to go. But gosh, I think they're going to get stuck there. =[ I'm not too happy about the property being cut on without them informing my stepdad but what can I do... but stay without electricity from now on. Let's just say, I'm not really bitching about it.



The animals are fine. We've gone out there every day to feed and water them all. =] Shadow is a bit of a nervous wreck. Poor kitty. Mama has been outside for over two weeks now and has adjusted completely. She's claimed the medium evergreen shade and dares those puppies to just touch her or get in her space.



I can't believe how this happened. I'm just happy our roof is still there on our house. No trees fell on it. And we're safe. There was a tornado right across the river from us here. There was never one there before that day of the storm. It was freaky how dark the sky over here got and I saw a funnel not far from here.



As for our telephone, the line is still ripped in like three places and no technician can get out to our house until July 6th.



It's frustrating. Gas is a horrid cost. We've bought tons of ice trying to save some of our food. We've lost over 3/4ths of the stuff in the fridge and freezers.



I'm a little upset about that. I had enough meat in the freezers for 2 months of meals if something came up. I guess I'll be couponing more often and extreme for a while from the need.



Aurora doesn't know about the hams yet. She's going to freak out. She already freaked about no power to her television. O_O She started understanding that day what was going on with the power. She's crying that she just wants to go home. =[ She's making my heart feel heavy as heck. I won't take her out home when we didn't have power and now can't turn it on until the pole is in with the weather being in the 90s. On Friday it's going to be 99 degrees.



No freakin' way!



Tomorrow I'm registering her for preschool. She's finally not having accidents with stool. I'm proud of her. She's excited. =] I'm a little sadden by the fact she's growing up and getting so much bigger. But I'm happy. I'll have some time to myself for once in 4 years. Gosh that sounds bad.



I'm going to give her the laptop back so she can play Nick JR games.

I know the bittersweet feeling of sending your child to school! I hope all will go well for Aurora, though I'm sure it will. :)

Brownie died two days ago. I'm horribly upset about it. He had two more strokes. The third one killed him.



I'm just happy he died there instead of someone taking him and him being in unfamiliar settings.



I have no power, no cable, and no phone at home.



There was a huge storm two days ago. We were at my mom's watching the kids and it hit. A tree fell in our yard ripping the cable line and telephone line (that was JUST replaced from a short in the line coming to the house) and pulling the electric line from the side of our house.



We're stranded with most the comforts of home without being there. We don't expect them to get to us until Monday. Ugh!



I started talking to Krissy again and becoming friends with her after not really being on friendly terms for a good 7 years.



I've missed her. I can't say I haven't. Just some things happened in high school that I broke off contact with everyone but Courtney, Amanda and Jared because I knew nothing came from them.



So yeah, I've disappeared from nothing at home being hooked up and needing a new telephone cord for my internet on the old laptop. The new one doesn't have a dial up modem. =[



Buh-bye.

Thank you, Oceanne. I'm just glad it happened before the storm. We had the chance to bury him before we came here to keep an eye on things. Our dog, Poochie was tangled in the television cable. Poor puppy.



=[ I feel bad our animals are out there and we're not there with them. We're going out though to feed/water them. *nods*
