I Know It's Been FOREVER!!!

Ok Ok... Look, My apologies on my Procrastination... I'm really horrible at updating my blog... I will try and make time...

So For a quick recap of what I've been up to since my last post, I worked at Belk in Intimate Apparel over the Summer... Oh the Joys of Bras & Panties :P
I took a trip to New Orleans, LA with one of my Besties! Lauren!!! It was fun, Noah & I rode the street car to the French Quarter & checked out some toy shops in Jackson Square. Lots of Fun! That is right up til my Fall Semester started at UAH. I'm currently enrolled in Human Anatomy & Physiology=Lame, Psychological Statistics=Lamer, & Chemistry= Lamest!
Noah Had his FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!! It was Lots of Fun!!! & It was so much more Fun for me than it was for him ;) I haven't had much luck on my fitness goals... lol that's probably why I usually don't set any. I have however decided to get back into running.... It has been a long time, but i feel I'm at a place where if i set goals I can reach them... So I'll use this as my offical announcement, that I'm setting a Goal for October 2009 to Run the Rocket City Half Marathon!
It will be my first serious Distance Running ever! So in Preperation for that I'm Going run in the Cotton Row Run in May 2009... Lol *Fingers Crossed* Hopefully I will be able to make it through the winter!!!!! If anyone out there is SERIOUSLY interested in attempting & hopefully meeting this goal with me, please let me know, I'd Love a Running buddy to help me get up on my off days!
Now to the Cuteness in my Life!!!
Noah is Such a Ham!!! He just chatters away like he knows it all... Everytime he see's a telephone he says "Hehwow, Hie, Hehwow"
I'm also going to enter him into the GAP baby Casting Call!!! I'll Keep you posted if anything comes from it! If we're lucky and he moves on in the Casting Process He'll Need all the support & votes He can Get! & we'll be coming after Ya'll :P

Daddy is in Greenland... Doing His Work on a Radar system up there... Updating the Computer Systems & whatever else needs to be done... It's All Very Hush Hush You Know ;)

I do need to get my time management skills worked on, as well as a pinch of self discipline...
as you can see by the hour i am posting this entry, I stay up far to late & because of that I sleep through far to many of my classes... I must admit i'm doing pretty Lame in school this semester... It's halfway through & I need to whip my Boootay into shape :)

I just had a random thought.... Halloween is coming up, I know lots of you out there have little ones of your own, i thought it might be fun to get a group of chitlens together & go Trick-or-Treating around the Historic District/Twickenham Area. Get back at me & Let me know if that's something that you may be intrested in...

I hope to get some new photos up & possibly some videos, if i can get them on my computer...
Thank you all again for your patience & tolerance... I'll will Strive to do better with my blog entries :D hehe...

All is Well!!!

Peace, Love, & Pancakes! ... Mmm... Pancakes :)

Momma Got Her Hair Did!

MmmHmm! That's Right... Momma Got Her Hair Did! : )
What better way for this single Mom to start dipping her toes in the dating pool.
I mean... I know I'm just so unbelievably Hot! & Men totally just throw themselves at my feet; I ask them them to "please stop", but since they insist, I only thought it was polite to Please their eye a little more ;)

Pfffft!!!! Yeah right... but Seriously

I did get my Hair Did!!!! :D

I gotta be a funky Momma! maybe I should have put hot pink highlights in my hair... Hmm... Not So Much!

But I'm diggin' the highlights, they do make me feel hip, & not quite as shriveled & rusty as I've felt since Noah's arrival in this world.

As for an update of my life this past week, Yes Ladies & Gentlemen I did go to Institute this past Thursday. My first official step back into the world of Young Single Adults. It's scarier then it sounds, Trust Me! : P

Saturday Noah & I made the Journey to Springville, AL to see one of my best friends from high school, who was also my first college roomie Get Hitched!!!
The Wedding began at 4 o'clock in the afternoon & the Reception immediately after & lasted until late in the evening, I left around 8:20 pm, & As surprising as this may sound the party didn't stop this time when i left... weird I know ;) Lol, but the guests really started boozing it up & started getting rowdy after the sun went down. So I decided it was time to go :OP Noah & I were Very Lucky that Springville happened to only be about 25 minutes from Homewood, AL. That's where my B.F.F Lauren aka my Baby's Daddy Lives :D
So we spent Saturday evening & Sunday with Lauren and her Family. It was a short & sweet visit! I wish I could have stayed another night, but I didn't bring enough Darn Diapers for Noah, & I really didn't have the fund$ to go to the store & buy a whole new pack of em'!
So Sunday Evening Noah & I said our goodbyes, and made our way back to the "Rocket City."
Naturally I had to call Momma & let her know I was on the interstate making my way back home. Just as I called her, I got a call from a friend I haven't had the opportunity to talk on the phone with in quite some time. I didn't know I had a call until after I had finished the conversation with my Mother. I then received a voicemail, only to hear that my friend Phirun had called.
Phirun is a Buddy of mine, that I've known for awhile... Oddly enough, I've never met him in person...
I can't remember exactly when I started talking to him, I think it was 1999 or 2000? Maybe even 98'? I'm really not sure... i just know it was one of my earlier years in high school... but I had just discovered yahoo messenger & I found an LDS chat room, & chatted up the gospel with a bunch of different LDS folks from around the country. It was just as I really started coming back to church by myself & It always excited me to go there & read as other members shared their testimonies & talked about the gospel. But any who, I met Mr.Phirun There... and We chatted of course, talked about my re-discovery of the gospel, & his conversion story...
I suppose Years go by and he & I have still managed to keep in touch... even throughout & after my many, many relapses into the "world."
We always kind of pick up where our last conversation left off, even if it was 3 or 4 months prior...
He's good Peoples & definitely a Good friend to have...
and in case you're wondering This all filters in to the final story of this blog entry... just be patient as my brain rambles on :P
OK... So some of You know, as I've shared with you, & if you couldn't have already guessed from my earlier comments about returning to the world of YSA, I've recently been getting a big kick in my rear by the spirit telling me to get myself back out there in the playing field...
The Time for Dating has begun... & Needless to say I've been a little weary about it... Because throughout my many talks with Jesus, while I was pregnant, he told me the only man I need to be concerned with was the one that was in my belly :P LOL! JK!
but as I "took out the garbage" & "cleaned house" in the deep abyss that is my soul... the very last thought in my mind were those concerning the opposite sex. Now that I'm in YSA again, I've just kinda been smacked in the face with a stupid stick... I didn't know how, who, why, where or what I needed to be doing... So Of course I turn to my buddy Phirun for advice...
He's been in YSA for a long, long, long time now :P Lol... just picking on him, but I'd definitely call him a Professional ;)
He is an honest guy, so I went to him for male advice, Do's & Don'ts, and any other tidbits of advice he had for me, that would be helpful.
So here's my Thank You to you Phirun... Not only for the Good Advice, but for the Good Conversation & enlightenment that Made my 1 1/2 hour trip back to Huntsville seem like 15 minutes.

I think those are my Big Findings & Adventurous tales from this weekend... I know It's just A bundle of fun for you all to read :P
but it is what it is, So please enjoy... Lol.

Oh... yes one more quick note,
I've also been doing better on my workouts... doing some yoga & belly dance fusion stuff at home : )
So Yey Me!
other then that...
I can't to see what Noah & I get served up this week! until then...
Hugs & Kisses to You All! & I hope You have an Awesomely Wonderful Week ahead of You!!!
