Memories on Monday
Well..I'm already bored at work again so I figured I'd do another Monday post...
I haven't had much to post being that work is the only thing consuming my life at the moment. Well, that and working out at the YMCA and playing with Charli Beth there, tanning, cleaning. Yes, that consist of the life of Paige, I suppose. I'm actually am getting a bit of tan on me...and feel very proud of it. I know that people always talk bad of tanning beds and what they do to your skin, and how they "bake your insides." But I honestly love them. I love the way it relaxes me after working out most of all, and if you lotion very good after tanning your skin looks a hundred times better.
My work outs at the moment are not consisting of much, and I honestly feel like a total lazy bum being that I work out and walk for about 30 mins a piece. I would be running, but it seems that the times that I go it is full of older people on the track...and I almost knock them done by in a fast pace walking and have to say "oh my..I'm sorry" on every lap it seems.Ha! Charli always loves going to a babysitters or to anywhere that she can play with other kiddos. I haven't taken her to her regular babysitter in probably two months. Since I work such crazy hours, I like to spend time with her as much as I can. And why not save money while I can? Although today of the Nursery workers told me that she didn't play at all and she teared up whenever I came in to get her. Maybe she is just in one of the "Charli moods" because we playing b-ball and ate lunch together and we had a blast. BTW, my big girl is such a great eater {some days} we went to diary queen for lunch. And I usually do not eat there EVER; just trust me on that one. But I wanted a salad and a cheap meal for her, plus free ice cream! She hate almost half of cheesebuger and all of my big tamoatoes. She loves maters! Although, sometimes Charli doesn't eat well at all, and it frightens me a lot of days. But I do know that Kids tend to eat different all the time.One reason I love our town is the elder people that sit around at the restraunts, and always say things that make my day. They are so darn cute and funny. I honestly hope to be one of them in my old age. Sit around, gossip (about good things) and talk about the weather all while stuffing my wrinkly face. Ahh..sounds oh so nice!
I better get back to work even though there is nothing going on what-so-ever. I cant help that I love being busy up here. I tell people that I hope we have a quite night, but deep down I hope we don't in a few ways.
p.s. i hate the ground hog =)

oh gracious!
Lady: Hi, how did you phone cost?
My friend: $100, since i renewed my contract.
Lady: oh okay...btw, (to me) whats your name?
Me: Paige (with a funny look on my face because the lady knows me..)
Lady: Oh well I was just talking to my daughter. And man she has gained so much weight. She is so fat now, big belly and huge hips. I dont know what is and I told her that I seen you and you looked kinda thin. (first off, kinda? thanks lady)Then she told me that you haven't ever been thin. haha. But let me tell you she is so big now.
....I am pretty sure that my mouth dropped by then. Then the lady asked Charli what her name was and could not understand or maybe just didnt have the sense to understand that it wasn't Carleigh it was "CHAR"-li
wow. I have never had anything like this said to me. But don't worry it didn't hurt my feelings I had tears coming to my eyes from laughter that was need to explode from my mouth as soon as she walked off. Who in their right mind would ever say something about their child like that? Yes, I have gained a few pounds because of Charli (but I wear the proudly) but I have NEVER had someone to tell me that to my face. Oh gracious! Thank goodness I've been working out lately. We ended up having to leave the restraunt we were at because my friend and I couldn't stop laughing at the awful comments she said, and she was sitting right infront of us.

Well, I haven't had much to write about the past week or whatever, but I figured that I better explain my two pictures that are below this post. The first about Miss Tripod, well she came into our lovely backyard/woods about a month or so ago. She isn't scared of people, or even the semi that is in our drive way. I plan to start putting some feed out for her (but not as a pet, to just help her out some). I have a lot of people thinking she is our "pet deer" by no way or means in she a pet. The game warden here would crap a brick if he were to think or know this about our lovely new friend. I had someone to tell me not let him find out because he will put her down. WHAT! She is just fine! That is craziness, and I hope you all think it is too. I'm not saying that I don't hunt, because I love too.
The second is of Charli Beth probably around the time she was 15 months old. She could do the "fishy face" so well...although her chubby cheeks have slimed down a bit and she can't suck her gums in right. lol.
EMT class has been cancelled all week due to the Ice Storm that has hit all of the nearby counties. I'm not exactly sure how we missed this but we did, and praise God for it. We were very prepared at work, a little more prepared than we have been in the past. Thanks to news we knew that we would be getting atleast something out of the storm, and it luckily came out to be very mild. My sister just lives 20 mins away from us, in the next town and has not had power for days. Her electric company has also advised that it could possibly be up to a week until her power is restored, which isn't even half as bad as a lot of people nearby. I sometimes believe that we are on a total different weather path than surrounding counties, being that we were hit with a tornado and others didn't recieve anything from it. Well, it's greys and private practice night so I better get everything settled in to watch my shows!!
To all of the nearby neighbors, we are praying for you and your families.

Charli Beth's 1st Cricus
Yesterday was my first Saturday off since sometime in September which is alright with me. But it was so nice to have time to enjoy with Charli Beth and my family. We made plans in advanced and headed down to Nashville to the Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey circus at the Sommet Center. A lot of the clown acts were funny to us but got really old and boring to Charli quickly. Just because she isn't old enough to understand. Then came out the horses and the elephants (just like her "ellie" that she snuggles with at night) and she had a blast watching them. I believe she also loved that cotton candy!!! Lol, who doesn't though? We had a blast there and by the time that we left she fell asleep under her clown hat, as we headed to the Rainforest Cafe in Opry Mills. If you haven't ever been there. You should go! We always have a blast, with the lights, sound affects and animals that move every 15 mintues. She didn't eat good at all, but she did love her new cup that her Pa got her! By the time we got home, I believe we were all wore out from the long day! (heres some pics of the circus)
Well, just for a quick update...Just like the top of my blog says this is the story of the life, struggles, success, failures and love...Failure is something that I do not like, something that I dont want anything to do with. But we all must fail and go back a couple steps in somethings. Well, my EMT class...I did wonderful in the class, and in my state practicals, now as far as the NREMT (which you do have to have, and then can let go after you get it..which I sincerely think is incredibly dumb but anywho!) I failed taking it and then I didnt have the extra cash to take it again. I think knowing that I failed the test made me not want to work hard in studying just because I felt that once again I wouldn't do good. I do have that "mind set" about things a lot of times, even though I hate it. But anyways, I have now successfully unsuccessfully let my state practical run out and will have to wait until a class is over and can do them again. Great! So my thinking is..I'm just going to take the whole class again so that I can be sure to be ready and pass the test. Yes, you EMT's may think I'm a little crazy for not passing that test but guess what..I didn't and thats that. I'm just going to strive a little harder this time to get it done. I know I can do it. Anyways, I'm at work by myself and it's been a crazy day, hope you all had a great weekend!
