Puppy for Christmas!

Steve is letting me get a puppy for Christmas! Hooray! I'm going to start looking next month though, because I know it takes a while to find the perfect one! But there's a puppy somewhere that is about to be born who already has a forever home. I can't wait to meet her!

Jasmine doesn't know it yet, but she will have a play buddy soon and will hopefully get worn out during the day and leave me alone at 3 am, 4 am and 5 am.

She is frustrating me though. I have to keep our spare bedroom door shut because she's pooped in there twice and peed once. Now that she doesn't have access, I discovered last night she's been peeing on the spare bathroom rug. No pooping outside her box though! Although, I think I'd rather have that because it doesn't soak into the carpet the way pee does. I don't know what to do about it! I keep her litter box clean so I don't know what her problem is!

I just love you and all that you are.

Quarter of a century!

Happy birthday to me! I'm 25!

24 was hard. I'm looking forward to 25 being a lot calmer, and a lot brighter. My family is close by. I'm praying and hoping my husband doesn't get sent anywhere, though. I plan on getting pregnant before I'm 26, too, but that's still months away. 25 will be interesting for sure.

I'm looking forward to the warmest winter of my life so far. People at work were talking about how they can't drive in snow... I don't like it, but I can do it. I will always make Steve do it if we're together, but I can get myself somewhere if necessary. 

I can't believe I'm 25 though. It's crazy! 25 years seems like such a long time, and yet I'll most likely wonder where the time went when I'm 50.

Hope you all are having a great holiday weekend!

Wet ceiling, it's my thing

Remember when I posted about our swamp cooler/ceiling leaking in our last apartment? Remember how it was an ongoing issue? Remember how much I hated it? Remember how grateful I was that nothing important was underneath that leak?

I came home from work today to the sound of *splat* ... *splat* ... *splat*

I went to investigate the sound...

There's one of these in every room. There's a great big puddle on my carpet. I tried soaking it up, it didn't work too well. You would think the sprinkler and/or pipe would be the cause...

He said the sprinkler itself was dry, so he cut a big hole in the ceiling. (I snuck in some pics just for you when he went to get more stuff from his truck)

The pipes were dry, but the water was coming from the right. So then he got maintenance and they went upstairs. Their A/C units condensation line got clogged, as well as their secondary line, and so it filled with TONS of water and over flowed onto my ceiling. 

They left a mess on my floor overnight and so poor Jasmine had to be locked away in the spare bedroom so she didn't try to eat the stuff. (She would. She's THAT dumb.) First pic is the mess he made cutting into the ceiling. Second pic is the stuff he left behind that I didn't want her getting into.

Thankfully, it's not over any where that our stuff will be - if it ever arrives - because I don't want to worry about water dripping on my couch, or TV or bed or anything else really. So let's hope it's fixed for good and nothing else leaks.

"Did you write that? That's beautiful!!!" I was slightly offended, but it was sweet haha.

The way you answered the door.
