Finally an update

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 31, 2008

I take my fireman’s physical abity test next Saturday (11/8/08).  This is what I have been training for.  I signed up for a training class afterwards – provided that I pass the test. 
The weekend looks busy as I have a bunch of little things I want to get done including getting some new fall/winter work [...]

A little this and that

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 28, 2008

I took a day of vacation on Monday.  Hubby and I met with the attorney and drew up our wills.  I felt a big relief as that is one thing off my plate.  We also did living wills and power of attorney stuff.  Hopefully we won’t need to access the wills for a long time [...]

Coastin’

Whew! It is Thursday.  I need to come up for a breath.
I went and spoke at the university today about being an adult who stutters.  It went well but it took a chunck out of my work day so I was busy busy busy.
Friday was my line in the sand for the alumni group and [...]

Weekend update

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 20, 2008

The weekend went very well which makes me very happy.
We went to a wedding on friday night and we were out of there in 30 minutes (call us Dominos).  We went to eat after wards.
Saturday we ran around town and did little things.  We voted early – it took us over 1 hour in line [...]

Weekend is looking brighter

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 17, 2008

So far most of our weekend plans have fallen through so that opens our time in a big way.  Hubby and I need some one-on-one time!  He has worked a lot of hours this week so I know he is tired.  There are a few “fun” things we want to do and a few “must [...]

Happy Boss’ Day

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 16, 2008

If you forgot then opps! This is the first year (in the 3 years that I have been here) that my group has acknowleged boss’ day.  They surprised us with cards then lunch.  It was a nice surprise.  Maybe they don’t think I am an ogre as much after 3 years. 
Had the 7th graders from [...]

Movie Review

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 14, 2008

I received disc 1 of a 5 part Ken Burns documentary on the Civil War.  OMG this is so very boring I didn’t make it through the first disc before I sent it back and cancelled the other 4.  I have seen other Ken Burns documentaries and they have been good.  I am not a [...]

The good, the bad and the ugly

The Oklahoma Sooner lost on Saturday – boo!  But I will give Texas credit.  They played well and won a hard fought game.  Tennessee lost and Vanderbilt lost.  It was a trifecta of losts this weekend.  Congrats to OSU for beating Missouri – I didn’t think the Pokes could pull it off!  Good job. 
I got [...]

Boomer Sooner

Posted by: maloneokie on: October 10, 2008

Speaking of Boomer!  Hubby saw an ad in his employers website for a dog named Boomer that WAS our Boomer.  They said he needed work on house training.  They are now calling him a coon hound which is what I kept telling the lady he was.  A coon hounds personality and a doberman personality are [...]
