Patty Johnson's Blog

Hey there peoples. Didn't do much this weekend. Planned on grilling out with my friends but it fell through because some people had to work and we didn't really connect with the communication.
Monday we did go to my parents house and grilled out which was fun. Mom, Dad, Grams, Mark & Becky were with Me, Adam and of course Lily.
Spelling Bee is on this week so I'm of course stoaked!!!!
Trying to plan the summer and June weekends are basically booked up which is kinda cool. At least I won't have weekends like this one where I do basically nothing but sleep.

Hey there! It's been a few days since my last post. I've been busy scrapbooking. I'm trying to get further on the Adam & Patty scrapbook. I just got back from Wal-Mart where I printed some pictures and earlier today I went to Herrschners and got some paper. I'm having oodles of fun. Once I can get access to my photo albums (which are somewhere in my storage) then I can do some of the older pages which will be fun
Today I went with my parents to a few garage sales. It was pretty cold outside silly Wisconsin. It was in the 70's in April and now it's freezing and snowy? Crazy stuff
I ran into my ex-coworker Matt today. Noel Group screwed him over too. He was a manager-in-training and right before he got his own team they demoted him to a regular rep and took all his passwords away. They said it was because he missed one more day then allowed. Gosh, they suck. He even made this handy dandy program for them which saved TONS of time while doing claims but they wouldn't pay him for the time he used making and updating the program. They wanted him to leave the program when he quit and he said hell no. He works at associated bank now so that should be better!
Well, now I'm going to do some scrappin' and prolly take a nap at some time (I woke up at 2am last night to feed the baby and then I couldn't get back to sleep til 7:30AM)
Later.

I went out for breakfast this morning at Four Star. Then I spent 2 hours cleaning & organizing my basement - boy do we have alot of cardboard...I'm glad its a recyclying week!
Hopefully we get to borrow Adam's parents truck this week so we can empty out my storage. Do you realize I've been spending $43/month since July 2003 at Stash it storage? Thats almost a grand of wasted $$. ugh.
Now we are trying to figure out what do do for dinner & Family Guy

I slept til noon today but I made up for it by doing a major cleaning job on my car. I emptied out everything, scrubbed the dash & doors, windows, vacuumed it all & gave it a nice car wash. I even bought a car fresherner with "new car scent" Its awesome

Well, sadly our new checks and debit cards have not come in the mail yet. I had to use the checks we have left over (which only say Adam Johnson) cuz I wanted to go buy some scrapbooking paper and get some pictures printed at Wal-Mart. Adam then realizes that his checkbook was left in Shaun's car so he contacts Shaun and after I get my picts burned to CD I go over to the village. I knock and then enter the open apartment, say hello to the cat, and yell out for Shaun a few times. I don't just want to barge into his room or anything so I try to go down to Eric/Aaron/Vanessa's apartment to see if he's down there but no ones home. I drive down to the Mobil station down the road and call Adam. Stupid payphone thinks my phone number is long distance or something so it costs me 75 cents for 3 minutes of time. Adam doesn't pick up right away since it was an unfamiliar phone number I'd assume so I leave this obnoxious message to which he finally answers. He calls Shaun (who was in his room the whole time) and I get the checkbook.
Next I'm off to "The Scrap Shack" and I get a block away and realize I forgot my list of the papers I need. Ugh. So I'm go back home to get the list and turn around again. I then spend about an hour looking for various papers and then checkout.
Then I go to Wal-Mart to use the Kodak machine (I hate Fiji Prints so I won't let Wal-Mart do them) and there is this girl trying to print 2 pictures from Prom. She crops it and auto corrects it and recrops it and adjusts this and that. So, I wait for about a 1/2 hour for her and her cowboy hat wearing boytoy to print 2 lousy pictures of themselves. When she is finally done I pop in my disc and print my 64 pictures which takes about 5 minutes.
Now, I'm at home trying to work on my scrapbook while Lily takes a little nap and Adam went out to Fill's Bar with the boyz.

Well, today during Adam's lunch break we took Lily to his work to show her to his co-workers. They demand to see her once a month they are so funny. She looked all around but I think she was overwhelmed because she didn't really smile at all or talk. Then, we grabbed a quick bite to eat at McDonalds before Adam had to go back to work.
I went to my parents house with the intentions of doing about 4 loads of laundry but only got one & a 1/2 done. Still have some towels there that I'll have to do tomorrow or something. We ended up going to Shopko and then we went to my ex-bosses daughters garage sale where I picked up some baby clothes, toys and some scrapbooking stuff. Then, we got back to my parents where I got to pick up my laundry and get back to my house just in time for Survivor.
Now, Adam and I are both on our computers doing this and that and Lily is in her bouncer smiling up a storm. She's so cute.

Well, my UW-extension lady cancelled on me today because she had a migrane so today was open. Lily & I went to my parents house to do some laundry...mostly baby clothes (including 32 bibs...that girl LOVES her bibs)
We also got to watch LOST with Mom and Dad so that was pretty cool. Only 3 more episodes this season. Adam was listening to the Red Sox Game tonight anyways so I just got home at 8pm. I think tomorrow is the only night those boys aren't playing...As you can tell I just love Baseball season.
I'm currently starving so I'm whipping up a batch of Mac-n-chz and hotdogs..mmm

Well, I figured it was about time to get in the now and make a blog. Adam thinks I'm trying to be "trendy" muhahaha.
Well, in my life lately I've been sick with sore throat and a nauseating headache. But today I'm much better. I even got out of the house and went shopping with Mom, Dad and Grams.
My computer has been fixed for the 3rd time in the last month so I'm hoping this time it works. We changed hard drives (since I'm pretty sure that my new one was super defective) so if this one works we will know for sure what the problem was...hopefully. I'm just sick of putting my files back on my computer over and over. Plus I now have to type in all my email addresses AGAIN! Arg!
That's all for now...hopefully I can keep this baby updated unlike my Live Journal.
