Readers

I have been informed that quite a few people are reading my daily (or almost daily) blogs and are amused at my life. Hmm. I'm not sure that I love people laughing at my struggles! ;) Just kidding.

We had our friend Meg over tonight for dinner. She is always a good time. She was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and has had the tumor removed. Next up is chemo and radiation...she has taken this all like the champ that she is. She has great stories of odd boob positions she has been put in and has really kept a great sense of humor through it all. She's one of my favorites. Your continued prayers for her are much appreciated.

I am currently not speaking to Jackson as he lied today about getting chores done. What is he? 10 years old?! Idiot. So I am a wife on strike. I refused to be lied to, especially about something so dumb. Feel free to think he's a dork- I do.

Things are going pretty well at work. I am starting to feel more at home and comfortable with things. Speaking of home we get to fly back to Indiana on the 30th! YAY! :) I'm really craving a McAlister's Deli, but I fear the mighty town of Evansville lacks one. Maybe Guy will bring pot pies?! (hint, hint)

My grandpa & grandma were recently in a car accident on the by-pass. Thankfully everyone is ok and they're getting a new van because of it! All is well that ends well. (I sure hope they do not insure with Allstate)

I thought of another thing about myself this morning on my drive so I will add it:

8. I HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE Allstate insurance company (ranks right up there with cinnamon). I was in an accident April 9, 2006 and they settled with me- in court no less- July 1, 2008. Their check did not clear until August 1, 2008. Their insured hit me and it took over 2 years to solve the issue. Each time I pass an Allstate office I am tempted to leave a note asking if they know they work for Satan's spawn. I also nearly gag when I hear that I'm "in good hands with Allstate" yeah right!

I figure this is my blog and I will whine about whatever I want. If readers don't like it-they'll stop reading I guess!

Another weird thing going on here: Jackson and I are no longer eating at restaurants. We always get poor service so we decided that we'd save money, time and calories by eating at home. This includes lunches at work (no more 40 minute 2 block trips for this hoosier) and everything. We see how long our strike lasts.

I think that is all for now. Nothing too interesting today, I'm sorry.
