I got an iphone !!!!

ok I have to say that I was one of those people that did not see what was so great about the iphone. I thought yeah it looks cool but I do not want to spend that kind of money on a phone.

WELL .... We have been with alltel for about 5 years now and well they were great at first but then we moved and well where we live we have NO service. We got sick of never having any service any where and still paying $200 a month, FOR WHAT ????

Finally my husband got sick of it and went the other day and switched over to at&t. He called me and told me what he was doing and said ok well just get me any kind of phone it is not really a big deal. I do not want to spend a lot of money. Well he came back with a new iphone for me and him and well I have to say that I LOVE IT !!!!! I have no idea why I did not get one of these things along time ago. It is so useful and convenient.

I am one of those crazy people that has a purse full of EVERYTHING. I always have my phone, a camera, a planner, my ipod, and a thousand more things. Needless to say my purse weighs 20 pounds. But now I can do all of that on this one little thing !!!! yes as you can tell I am very happy with my new phone ....... I have such a great husband, lol !!!!

Does anyone really get 8 hours of sleep a night ???

I can not stand it when I am all nice and sleepy and then I go lay down and I am wide awake !!!! As much as I would love to be one of those people that can sleep 8 hours (as it is recommended by doctors) I am just not!!!!!!! I am doing good to get a soiled 4 hours of sleep. I usually wake up about 6 times a night ... why ? if anything makes a noise I am up ! I am a light sleeper were as my husband is not a light sleeper, he would not hear it if a train came through the house. As long as you do not take his covers off and turn on the light then he will sleep through anything else ..... MAN, that must be nice !!!!!!!!!!! For me to sleep like that I have to be heavily medicated.

Awwwww

Coconut Oil

While I was looking at this site a while back I saw this http://www.uniquelyplaced.com/2009/04/coconut-oil-my-new-beauty-love.html ..... at first I was very nervous about trying this but thought " what is there to lose, if I do not like it then I really have not wasted anything. " Well I have been using coconut oil for a little over a month now and I LOVE it. I have really dry skin and it works wonders for me ! And I also use it on my face .... and no it does not break me out or feel oily, it has actually cleared my face up. I do not like wearing foundation because it feels so heavy and like I have tons of makeup on. I like to just use a little bit of power but with dry skin some times just using power it would make my skin even more dry. well now I use the coconut oil and then brush a little power on and it looks great. no more dry flaky patches !!! This is great for people who have REALLY dry skin !!!!

St. Louis

I had a great time in St. Louis. The drive up there how ever is a different story. It rained almost the whole drive and I am not talking about just a little here and there I am talking about I can not see the car in front of me... it was not fun. But the closer we got to st. Louis the rain went away and the sun come out to play :-) !!!!

This is a picture from our room.
The Arch was huge !!!!

we went to the top of the arch and it was an interesting ride to the top. We had to sit in these little pod looking things and at that point was very happy that I am not a very tall person. If you were taller then I would say 5'6 then you had to bend over the whole 4 minute ride up there. 4 minutes is not bad but there are 5 to a pod so it could get a little uncomfortable but we were very lucky and everyone in our little pod was very nice.



The next day we walked around St. Louis some and then we went to the Anthony Rapp book signing. I did not even know that he had a book out and was not going to buy it but then he starting talking about what it was about and well it sounded really good to me so I had to buy a copy. I have not started reading it yet but will let everyone know what I think about it when I finish it.He was a really funny down to earth guy. I was not a huge fan before but after meeting him I would say that I am huge fan of his now.


RENT was great both nights. I got to meet some of the cast the first night but the second night some little girl passed out when Anothy came out so no one else came out that night. But that is ok. I am not really big on having to get their autographs I went to watch the show that is what I did. The last day before coming home we ate at St.Louis bread company, then went to Borders books and then whole foods. I wish El Dorado had atleast one of these things. All would be wonderful but I would take just one. It is so sad how far you have to drive to get to stores like this :-( ....... but any way we had a great time in St. Louis !!!


Here are a few picutes. They are not good and most are snapped with little cam but it gives you an idea.

I miss this place.

WOW it has been a long time since I have been here !!!!!!
