Weekend With Family




WOW weekends go fast !! I got up Saturday morning and went out to the high school to watch my cousin Brandon play baseball in a tourney, he pitched and did a really good job. It was cool and windy but very sunny and it was nice to sit out and watch him do so well. I came home from that game ate some lunch and helped my mom at the bank then went to watch Austin , brandon ' s younger brother play little league . He also pitched and did really well, I got some great sun and spent time with my cousins and friends just watching all those games so I guess it was a good day. I usually don't see them play all that much but Saturday I wasn't doing anything so it seemed like a great day to watch some baseball. I came home from the ballgames went to the grocery and washed my car and really did not do much else , nothing on tv 500 channels and nothing and no video store in town so I just hung out at home and read some magazines.

Sunday 4-23-06 I got up this am and went to church came home and changed clothes and then picked up my grandparents and we went to Decatur IN. for my cousin Brady's 6th birthday party. It is about 1 hr and 15 minutes north of us. We had a nice time another day with the family and even got see the pacers win. We got home about 6 pm and I am now just watching the hallmark movie.

Mom's Job is Hard



Hi and welcome to the weekend. I hope everyone has a great one. Let's see .... What exciting things have I been doing well if I had to list them it would stop here, but ok on Thursday I went to work and had a meeting with our supervisor and the other people in our office. I went to lunch with Statia and we went to Mancinos. I went home from work and then had to clean the entire bank for my mother as she was having a colonoscopy on Fri and needed to do all the prep"crap"(pun intended-lol) . Cleaning the bank is not really that bad its a big place and all the desks have glass on the top so everyone has to be cleaned every night because god forbid there would be a finger print left(lol). I also did the dishes at the bank , coffee pots, bathrooms, swept and picked up the trash. I guess one upside is that I finally found a reason to use my ipod. I really wanted it for laying out on the beach but the songs on the thing would be outdated before that happens so best to get use out of it now. I came home and watched the OC and then went to bed as I had to get up early to take mom for her test.

Friday 3-21-06 I got up this am at 6 as mom had to be at the hospital at 7:15. She did well had a couple of pollops and thats about it doing good just groggy from putting her out for the test. We got home about 10:30 then I had to be at work for a all staff meeting at 2 in Anderson. We found out about some changes in positions at the company. Patrick has a new title but me I'm the same ole Stacey. I came home stopped and got some dinner for us at Arby's and ran into the dollar store to get some bags to put some birthday gifts in. I went and cleaned the bank again tonight but it went quicker tonight as dad helped, hopefully mom can take her job back tomorrow , she can have it !!!. Have a great weekend.Here are a couple pictures of inside the bank.--Stacey Out--

Saturday April 15th-- I got up early this am and went to have breakfast at the lodge in town with my grandmother and her friend . I was on my way to breakfast when I saw my cousin Chris trying to flag me down on the road, his car has stopped and he needed a ride to the fire station there had been a bad wreak and he needed to get down to help. I dropped him off and then went to breakfast. I was eating and of course all the people who were running for local offices were there trying to get my vote so I told the one guy I will be happy to vote for him as soon as he gets are county roads fixed they are nothing but pot holes and I could have guessed his repsonse"we just don't have any money". Mom and I then went to New Castle , I looked at Goody's and then we had lunch and went to the grocery. We came home and I helped her clean the bank, worked on changing my closet to summer clothes and Teresa came for a visit and brought me a cute purse full of Easter Surprises.

Good Friday--- Prom Night....







Good Friday to you and it was warm today but stormy in the afternoon and very cloudy. I worked today and had a quick appt. out of town after lunch. I went to lunch by myself and ran some errands, my diamond ring that I got for graduation years ago had a prong loose and I was afraid I would lose it because I had several years ago and was lucky enough to find it laying on the floor. I took the ring to the jeweler down the street and he fixed it and cleaned it while I waited , now it is nice and shiny. I also picked up the cookies my grandmother had made to give to her great -grandchildren they are cute eggs with the kids names on them. I stopped on my way home from work at blockbuster and was getting a video when my friend Teresa called me and said that she was going over to see the kids go into the Prom tonight I really wanted to go because my cousin Brandon and Chase were going and I could not get off work today to see them leave the house in the limo, I went with them . We stopped and ate at my mexican place I always eat at and I am sure they thought WOW this girl is not with her normal crew(lol). We stood outside the Paramount where the prom was and watched all the girls and guys come in all looked good and very grown up. I did not mention that during the time I was standing watching them go into the prom it was storming and hailing out(WOW). I took some picutres of the kids my cousin chase is on the right in the picture with 2 guys and brandon is with the girl in the yellow and the limo they came in also. Teresa's nephew is in the white . I hope you all have a great weekend.--Stacey Out--

Meeting at Yorktown

Well today was another one of those all day meetings in our main office. I sat all day in a little room with 20 some people. It is always a long day. Christie, Statia, Karla, Aubrey, James and I went to the End Zone for lunch with some of the girls from Delaware county, its a bar but it has pretty good food. I got a 25 dollar gift certificate for exceling at work so that was a nice surprise and at the end of the day we went over these positive statements that last month everyone said about us, everyone was suppose to say 1 nice thing about everyone in the room so let my paraphrase what they said about me"funny" "bubbly""helpful""caring""nice" "experiened" " a good dresser"" a good fashion designer" and now the one that I am taking offense to" a shop-aholic". I don't really think that is a positive thing(haha, it may be true but not positive). I stopped at the home made candy store on the way home from work and picked up some candy for Teresa, I always make her up a easter basket. I got home and was glad to see that my dad got home from his golfing trip. I changed clothes and worked some on changing my closet to sping and summer clothes. I went down to see my grandparents and then stopped and helped mom at the bank and then came home and got all my easter cards ready to mail. I just watched Idol and they did really pretty good trying to sing Queen songs really better than I thought. Have a great day tomorrow.--Stacey Out --

A Saturday Shower

Welcome to the Weekend--- I got up early today and ran to the bank cleaned and sweeped out my car and then when out to the dealer where I bought it and had the oil changed and the tires rotated and they even washed it. I came home and mom and I ran to Anderson , we had some lunch at Penn Station and I took a couple of things back that I bought last night,YES I am allowed to change my mind(haha). We came home and I changed my clothes and went to the Bridal shower of a girl I use to work with at Lifestream . She and I and others also went to Florida 3 years in a row and we spent a week in her parents condo in Panama City Beach, Fl. It was at the home of another girl I use to work with , I am not sure I ever mentioned that I use to work in our main office where Patrick works, I worked there for over 4 years , but about 4 years ago I moved to our Anderson office, best move I ever made(lol). She had a new home that she had built , she gave me a tour and the shower was really nice,it was great to see friends that I miss and have not seen in a while. I even won a prize, there was a game to match celebrity males with their female mates, I got them all right. I am not sure what that says other than I pay way to much attention to trival things. I came home from the shower and helped mom at the bank and am now just relaxing watching one those Hallmark movies I love so much----Stacey Out------

It's Always Something

Friday 3-31-06--- The day started out with rain and ended with Storms. I went into work and had an appt. out of the office before lunch. We in the office took James to Ruby Tuesday for his birthday. Karla, Aubrey, Christie , Statia , and I all went and had a great lunch. I went back to work after lunch when I got a call from my Aunt on my cell phone that they had taken my grandfather to the ER for pains in arms and back and he was having problems with breathing. The hospital is just down the road from our office. I went to the ER and sat with my mom and grandmother and uncles. They were going to keep him and run some tests. They ran some tests and he got to this room about 7 pm,everyone else had left except for my grandmother and I and then we heard over the loud speaker "code white" and we all looked at each other then the nurse came in and said that it was a tornado warning and we all had to go out into the hall, all the patients and visitors had to sit in the hall for about 20 minutes until the storm passed. My grandmother and I left the hospital about 8 and went to the cracker barrel for dinner. My grandmother said she was scared to stay alone so I stayed the night with her , I did not sleep well, you know how it is when you sleep in a stange place, I just could not get to sleep. WOW what a day.

Saturday 4-1-06- My grandmother got me up at 5:30 so we could get to th hospital in time for a chemical stress test my grandfather was having. We got over to the hospital and waited for the test to be over with , he had that test and some others and the heart dr said that his heart was fine and he was not sure what was causing his pain maybe a pulled muscle. My grandfather got to come home at lunchtime and he said he was feeling pretty good. I brought him home and then spent the rest of the day at home. I am now just watching the NCAA and before I go to bed remember to turn the clocks up , this is the first time Indiana has done this in about 3o years.-----Stacey Out---
