The life of a Working girl http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/ en-us Homeschool Blogger Tue, 18 Jul 2006 11:11:00 -0500 Tue, 18 Jul 2006 11:11:00 -0500 I had a great idea the other day when I had a longing to be married.....I thought why don't every time that I have a longing to be married I work on a project for something for my hopechest. I would get alot of projects completed that way. :) just my thoughts for today!Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/168747/ Tue, 18 Jul 2006 11:11:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/168747/   Hey friends just thought I would do a somewhat quick update before I head and do my chores. :) Yesterday was a good day. :) work was fairly easy...McKinley had a fever so she wanted to be held and slept off and on. :) And then Monya (my boss) came home and she asked me if I wanted to go along with them to the Gulf coast beach with them for 2 weeks..... July 16 till the 29. I think I am proving myself to them and they really like me now. I am waiting to get the okay from mom about going to the beach. I haven't talked with her since Monday. I hope we can talk soon. :) well, I will end here!Love,Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/165686/ Wed, 12 Jul 2006 10:53:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/165686/ Happy 4th of July everyone! :) Boy this past weekend was crazy busy...Saturday we painted my old room for Amy....we painted it a light green color. :) and then we set up her furniture in there too....I was really tired Saturday night! :) Then Monday Mom and Amy painted my new room Amy's old room.....while I was at work. :) it's a light blue color. I love the way I have it set up now. I have a 5 cd cd player in there now that was in the bonus room before. Dad has to hook it up tho. I am greatly missing a cd player now.....I spent alot of time setting up my room last night! That was pretty fun! :) Dad also needs to hang some stuff on my walls soon! I need to get my new bathroom cleaned today probably. It's nice sharing with Thomas. I need to box up all Amy's bathroom stuff and put it down in her bathroom. :) I got asked out on a date the other day with Luke Wilson a guy that I graduated with. But I have no feelings for him.....I told him I would have to see what my parents think.....<sigh> why is it that I always get asked out by the guys that I have no feelings for other than friendship? I wouldn't mind doing stuff with him as long as he knows that we are just friends....I would hate to hurt him....I think I have been asked out 2 times too many.....I have only been asked out 3 times in my whole life. And when he was talking to me the whole time I was thinking about Chris....Lately it doesn't bother me too much that we are not together. I think that we will be together....since I have been thinking about him for the past 7-8 mos. I am getting paid for not working today! :) Love,Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/161645/ Tue, 4 Jul 2006 16:02:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/161645/ 2-Stretch out your left arm as far as you can.

If someone wants to tell me please do! ;) Nothing too much is going on here other than the usual work and family stuff. I am hoping we might go blueberry picking again tomorrow morning. I love blueberries ;) Anyone have any special plans for the 4th of July? We are going to a minor league baseball game on the 3rd and they have fireworks afterwards. I am hoping we might have company on the 4th.....We might get fireworks and do them at the property we own and possibly see the fireworks display they have at the highschool.Love,Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/158486/ Wed, 28 Jun 2006 12:11:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/158486/ I think I am in love with the car that is currently sitting in our driveway.....it's a 2004 blue Honda Civic (the same color as Chris's Accord). Man, I wish i could buy it! They loaned it to mom when she had to get work done on Dad's car. :) Mom let me drive it to pick up the suburban and back. Maybe I can talk to dad about buying the blue civic. :) I could put every paycheck in savings and that would be an easy way to save up for it....but I wouldn't have much spending money....I guess I should talk it over with dad. :) http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/150227/ Tue, 13 Jun 2006 11:31:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/150227/ Hey friends, this week has kept me pretty busy between working (Monday through Thursday 1-5) and between that and family life it seems I have been really busy. Dad left Tuesday for a business trip to Fairbanks, AK....so he will be gone till next Saturday I think. :) We are leaving this Thursday for Virginia for my cousin Theresa's wedding. That will be really fun! It will be fun to see family again! :) I'll be sure to post pictures here too! :) I have to work the same hours from now on! :) That will work out good for me. It's nice having Friday, Saturday and Sunday off! :)  I had one of those wonderful dreams this morning when I was still sleeping.....I dreamed that Chris and I were just married....and we were blissfully happy.....<sigh> I didn't want to wake up this morning. I love the month of June and I hope that I will get married in June someday......lol well, I guess that is enough of an update for now!Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/149662/ Mon, 12 Jun 2006 11:43:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/149662/ I was thinking the other day and I thought of something intelligent to do with my money....I am going to save a goodly ammount and buy a plane ticket to go visit one of my friends that I have never met before. The Question is who do I want to visit? I have lots of friends I want to meet.....I actually have a pretty good ammount of money for a start! I have like $120 now and I have a birthday coming up too! ;) Laura ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/126325/ Sat, 29 Apr 2006 17:33:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/126325/ I am really sorry I have not been around here at all lately. I have no good excuse other than that I took a break from the computer for a while. Mom and Dad kinda wanted me too....It was kinda needed I think. :) I guess you could say that life has been busy lately. I was just thinking that lately life is good despite the things I have had to go through. :) I have it good compared to some ppl. The end of January Grandpa Ralph Land (mom's dad) died and went to be with Jesus.....it was an expected death so I wasn't too sad about it. His funeral was the first weekend in Feb. so we all went up to VA for that. It was great to see mom's family again! Valentine's day wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.....my friend Brian in MD called me and that kinda cheered me up. He has been calling alot lately. I am not sure what that is all about. I guess he might just like having someone to talk to. It's also nice to hear about the area I used to live in. He was my neighbor in MD. Yesterday Mrs. Anderson called and she said that couple that Mr. Anderson works with is looking for someone to babysit their 6 month old for 3 weeks (13 hours a day/6 days a week). We called the parents and they have yet to call us back. But I think it sounds fun and I would probably get paid well. And plus it's a baby what can be better than that? I am not sure when I might get a real job. I might try reappling a few places soon! I am also considering going to get my CNA (certified nurses Assistant). I am only in the considering it stage though. I think one of mom's friends looked into it for me and she said it would be a 2-6 week course! So we'll see. And I would pretty much be gauranteed a job cause I see ad's for CNA's in the paper! :) I am slowly letting go of the situation with Chris. I am slowly realizing that I may never be courted by him. It was all cause of a letter my dear friend Victoria wrote me. Thanks Victoria! :) okay! I guess that is all the news from here for a while! I am not sure when I might be able to update again! I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks to all of you that sent me e-mails and notes in my absence! Have a great week!

He is interesting to talk to.....Don't worry girls I don't have any feelings for Brian other than that of friendship....and I don't think I could ever marry him. He had a rather strange request when we were ending our phone conversation....he asked if I could come visit maybe near Easter....and I of course said I would have to ask my parents.....I don't really want to visit him anyways.....I think it would just be too weird....I mean staying with his family and I don't know.....I am kinda thankful that mom said she wouldn't let me come visit him.....   Laura May ~* http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/65143/ Sat, 7 Jan 2006 22:07:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/beautifulLove86/65143/
