Change



**Pic above is of me and Val after dinner....

I think I should change the name of this blog to "Lori's Life is Insanely Busy anad Crazy".

OK, I won't do that, but I really feel like I am running around like a maniac lately.

Tonight, I grocery shopped. Why? Because we literally had NO food in the house. Kurt was sad because he had nothing to snack on at all. The pugs had no treats and we had resorted to giving them little pieces of cheese. Kory was using kleenex last night to wipe off the counter because we had no paper towel. I am a bad wife and mother. LOL. $211 later, we are now fully stocked again.

Backtracking to the week.....

Thursday night, I had a board meeting that was pretty long to watch presentations from the food service vendors. Friday, my stepsister once removed Vallorie came over for dinner. It was nice to catch up in person. She has a lot of exciting things on in her life, and I am really excited for her. This semester with school she is doing a paid internship and working excessive amounts of hours. Which resulted in her and her boyfriend breaking up. So, that sucks for her too, but, I really think she needs to be with a guy who "gets" the busy schedule. Val's career is really important to her, and I am glad she is putting it first and prioritizing everything like she should. She is only 20, she needs to focus on school and her career.........Anyway, the place has been flying her all over the country to do audits (she is an accounting major), and she is really liking who she is working with and what she is doing. So thrilled for her. Anyway, the four of us (her, I, Kurt and Kory) went to Quatro's for dinner, then chilled at the house some. We talked about her Vegas trip with us this August, and Kurt told her that if her boss won't give her the weekend off, he is going to Subpoena her to the casino in Vegas....haha.

Today, I had a massage this morning. I needed it BADLY. My other therapist, I think, is having some issues with the person she works with, and moved my appointment this week, not giving me a new one yet, so I went into my back-up place and ended up seeing the owner, Heidi. Oh My God. After Rebecca, I think she understood me more than anyone. I was literally almost crying in pain. Rebecca--she did that myofacial (sp) as well as deep tissue, and scapula (sp) work. I am in pain tonight, but I feel like my body is going back into place. I made another appointment with her for three weeks from now. After that, we headed to the office and to run errands. Worked a couple hours on odds and ends and updating our client lists of things to do. Stopped at Best Buy to price some things out....After being in my car with it's XM Radio and GPS, Kurt is getting jealous. He has the "nicer" car, and faster car, but, he does not have all the little extras that my car has. Also, the radar detector for his car broke at the end of the summer last year, so he needed a new one, and he wanted to buy one for my car. I had $15 in gift cards to use there (which did not put much of a dent in Kurt's shopping). Kurt rarely shops, but it seems like whenever he does, it is NOT cheap. LOL. Anyway, we talked to the guy in the stereo, GPS and radar department for some time. He took the details on the car, and the installation guy is supposed to call this week to verify if everything will work in Kurt's car. We did buy the radar detectors, as well as the smart cords, which will allow us to wire the radar detectors and not have it plugged into the lighter like before. Best Buy is going to install them both too, which rocks. Kurt also picked out this really kewl GPS/XM Radio setup for his car, that was on clearance. It's pretty sweet, really. Touchscreen, and you push a button and it kinda comes out of the dash, then can go back in so people looking in your car when parked do not realize what it is. Assuming that can be put in Kurt's car (Porsches are somewhat weird with how they set up their sound systems, so hopefully it will work......). So, did not buy that yet, but I am guessing he will be. Also, went and bought Kurt a new iPhone. His died, and since we are out of warranty, there is nothing that cane be done. He did get to upgrade to the 3g, which is nice, since we both have the older iPhone version.

Going to bed shortly......Jessica and I are going to Birch Run tomorrow, to try and get some good deals! :). I have not been there in forever, so it will be nice to walk around and check out what's new! Night....

cool gadgets! I thought I lost my iphone at a bar (it was later found under the passenger seat in Bachs truck)... and I was a little bummed when we found it because I wanted to upgrade to the 3G.

I'm jealous you're going to Vegas! You should fix Kory and Val up, keep him in the family, haha.
