After my post yesterday - we went up to North Shore for some Mexican food. On the way there, I saw a gorgeous view of the sun coming through the clouds over the mountains...I tried to send it to everyone but apparently not everyone got it so I'll include it here:
Then we came back into Pearl City and went to visit his two friends from the Air Force, James and Becka, who were 21 and 20 respectively. We played Taboo and let me tell you - I am officially the bomb at that game. ;)
I'd been pretty dizzy since I've been here (yes, I've been drinking water) but last night I decided to take one of my 'dizzy pills' I was given for the Vertigo last year or whenever. This makes me pass out COLD - so I slept for probably 10 - 11 hours :) When I finally got up - we went to Denny's and got breakfast. After that, it was back to the couch for more ghost-hunting TV shows! Surprise!! ;) I ended up taking the car and running to the Goodwill down the street. They have amazing things there - who knew!? The pants rack was littered with Banana Republic, Limited and the Gap! I bought three pairs of pants for work, a brand-new American Eagle sweatshirt, a t-shirt, a CD, and a tiny little incense burner (in the shape of a grill!! for $1 - I had to!) all for like, $25 I think. That's pretty good, I think!! I stopped by Long's Drugs on the way back and got myself something for dinner, Ben and Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream, and some more canned coffee (this is the best stuff ever and it's only $.77 a can!). And when I returned the car, Jesse left for work so I'm sitting on the floor watching Anchorman about to dig into my ice cream... :)
No news yet on the apartment - so keep crossing your fingers! :) I saw a couch at Goodwill - black leather mod kind of deal - three oversized pillows in the back, three cushions, and two sideways cushions all held together by shiny silver metal...the couch was $150 I think. Is that expensive?! The only issue I saw was that the leather was looking a little 'worn' - not cracked, but just turning lighter - on the center cushion. I didn't know if this was something worth getting or not. Oh well...
I've got some laundry to do - a shower to take - some movies to watch - and a date with Ben & Jerry :) Sorry I don't have much to report but I'm feeling my first headache coming on and I think it's due to a lack of chocolate!
Love you...miss you...
me.

Hi Kristen,
Will they let you know either way on the apartment?? As quickly as the apartments go, surely he will give the news tomorrow..Sounds like you are on a permanent vacation, with a job to pay the expenses. LOL
Sorry to hear the vertigo may be returning, let's hope it's a one day thing...too much thinking going on in that head of yours??
I'm thinking of you...always keeping you in my prayers, and wishing for the best!
Love ya
Hi Kristen,
Sounds like you got some real bargains on the clothes. The Sunset was beautiful - it came through on my phone, but not on this blog! Keeping everything crossed for the apartment you want – surely you will hear something soon! Sorry to hear about the headache – probably just so much going on. When you get the apartment and settled in you will be fine – remember you when there to calm down. Love you and think about you always… Dad
Hi Kristen,
Sorry to hear about the vertigo and a headache. Grab an imitrex!! It sounds like you had a relaxing Sunday. And, did very well shopping!!! Of course, when you wear a size 0 or 2...you have no trouble...lol! The sunset was beautiful..can't wait to see one! It's brrrrrr cold here...37* and spitting snow. Grass was covered this AM but the sun for about 10 min. and it's gone now! Fingers are still crossed for the apt...let us know. Have a great evening!
Love you,
Patty
