Only Scooby-Doo:(

Like many young kids I loved watching scooby-doo as a child, but lately it is getting out of hand! My dvd player seems to have a mind of it's own. The only dvd that seems to be capable of playing in my dvd player is Scooby-Doo and the Witches Ghost. Don't get me wrong out of all the scooby-doo movies that one is my absolute favorite, however, a person can only watch so much scooby. I have cleaned the dvd player multiple times with the lazer lens cleaner and still nothing else seems to play. I just don't underdtand. Seems to me that it is just time to retire my current dvd player and buy a new one.

In need of a boat!

I am seriously going to need to sell my car and buy a boat if it continues to rain. It has literally rained very day/ night this week. Why can’t Mother Nature take a break? The roads have been so flooded, it is absolutely ridiculous. I was walking into work yesterday and the parking lot was so flooded that I had water completely cover my feet once I stepped out of my car. I guess on the bright side of things I am finally able to get some use out of my rain boots I purchased a while back. I suppose the rain is not all bad, well minus the flooding. I actually went puddle hopping with a pal the other night in our front yard; it was a good time, although the puddles probably could have been considered mini pounds. Never the less I just wish it would stop raining. Sad news is that there is more on the way:(

Moving Out!

So excited that it is even hard for me to type right now!:) I got an apartment! I will officially be on my own, hard to believe since it seemed that it was never going to happen. This is going to be quite the experience for me. I now have the pleasure of living with two of my dearest friends.  I cannot wait to finally get all of our belongings moved and settled in. The weather lately has prohibited us from moving anything of a decent size, although I felt pretty accomplished when I was able to load a dresser, my head board, and the mirror off of my standing dresser all in my vehicle the other day.  I think that I am going to find having roommates to be rather interesting seeing as to how I never really had to share anything, but my roommates claim that we will change that.  I am excited and a little nervous to see where this will lead me. This is guaranteed to be a learning experience that I will not forget.

Happy B-Day to ME!

Finally! April 23 is just around the corner, this Saturday to be exact. I will officially be nineteen and no longer the only one of my closest friends that still has to say that I am eighteen, however will forever be the youngest there is no escaping that. Seems strange to say, but I have yet to decide how it is that I plan to spend this glorious day. Don’t get me wrong, I am thrilled about my birthday and the turning of another age, however, the party aspect of it just doesn’t seem to bring as much joy as in the past. Maybe this is because I am burnt out on having big, extravagant parties. When I was younger birthdays were a big deal. There was always a big celebration with friends, family, tons of food, cake, and of course the presents! Now I just want to have the day and spend it my way.   

Work Free!

I am totally loving this week, well minus the weather. I looked at my work schedule and found that I am only scheduled to work two days this week, which is rather unusual for me. Plus it just so happens to be my weekend off. This is going to feel like a vacation to me. I am not going to know what to do with myself. One of my nurses always jokes that I should just take up residency in one of the unoccupied rooms seeing as to how I practically live at the nursing home anyways. Sadly she is right. It is rare that I ever have a day off, because of the fact that they always seem to have people call in, resulting in me having to come to work anyways. I feel bad knowing that for one my co- workers will be working short and for two that the residents are obviously in the nursing home for a reason and should not be the ones to suffer for those who just didn’t want to show up to work that day. Not to mention I have a problem saying “no”. I try hard to put others before myself and if that means living in a nursing home, then I guess that’s what I have to do for my residents. (Just not this week;P)  

Tattoo?

What is the obsession with being inked? I personally just do not understand the thrill of a little needle repeatedly stabbing you over and over again. Not to mention the fact that tattoos are permanent! I change my mind too often to even consider the idea of something permanent being place on my body. I joke around and say that if I were ever to get a tattoo it would be on the inside of my lip (never gonna happen!) If you think about it getting a tattoo on your inner lip would be the absolute ideal spot for one. You could say that you went through with getting a tattoo and it would not be visible unless you felt the need to show it to others or just show it off in general. Plus it wouldn’t prevent you from receiving any future jobs, although neither would a black light tattoo. A friend of mine has a total of six tattoos. She claims that they are addicting, I guess I just do not understand.       

Stress

Sooo overwhelmed! I would like to go back to the time when others made the decisions for you. Life was much easier back then, but no now it’s time for Candace to make her own decisions which wouldn't be such a horrible thing if I knew what it was that I wanted. Why can't someone just give me all the answers, that’s all that I want. Is that too much to ask for? I suppose so. Advice is helpful, but in the end it is me who has to make the ultimate decision. HUH frustration!

Funny thing, I started writing this blog a week ago in one of my classes and was unable to finish it so had to save it as a draft. Now that I have finally had the time to come back and sum it up I cannot even tell you where my thought process was going. That just goes to show how quickly things change.
