Julie's Journal

Yay, it’s Monday! I love Monday’s when they follow a good weekend, and especially if the work week is only 3 days long!

Yesterday was our first wedding anniversary. We didn’t have anything planned, and thought we would just play it by ear. We thought about going to the movies, but decided to stay in and just catch some movies on cable. J.R. worked crazy hours, so I was busy shuffling him to and from work.

We watched Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo again, which is always great for a good laugh. We also caught the action packed Mission: Impossible III. I thought it was really good, and now I want to see I and II. Michael has seen them all, and he coined this one Mission Retarded III. LOL! No, he didn’t like it.

We ended the night by getting take out at Lucilles BBQ, which was absolutely delicious, and had a picnic on our bed while we watched The Zodiac which was slow and boring. We both dozed off for a bit watching it, but that could have been from our full bellies also.

We got a card from my mom in the mail, with a lottery scratch ticket in it. We were all excited scratching it off, but we didn’t win. It was still fun and exciting though. Thanks mom!

Over all, it ended up being a nice day, and I really enjoyed it.

I’m still here. Things have been a little nuts at work, and on the home front, so I’ve been busy dealing with all those things. J.R. got a job at a large electronics store, so he’s going to be one busy teenager during the holiday season. I’m trying to put my Halloween costume together at the last minute, as usual.

The Google Page Rank on all my blogs went down to PR2′s. That bites so bad, but there isn’t much I can do about it. I’m still indexing really well, so in the end, that is really all that matters to me.

I’m not going to make it to Blog World Expo next week, because I can’t get the time off from work. That kind of sucks, but I’ve still got things planned with the people that are coming into town for it, so I’m looking forward to those gatherings. PostieCon is on Saturday, so I will make that for sure.

Not much else to report. Oh we’re coming up on our 1st Wedding Anniversary (Nov 18th), and that’s pretty exciting. We haven’t made any definite plans for it yet, but whatever we plan, I know it will be perfect. He’s the greatest guy ever, and we’re just so happy.

I think we all have that one couple that you are constantly wondering when they are going to get married. You know the ones that have been together for years, and have kids already, but they just won’t take that next step into marriage. I know a couple like this, and at some point I’m hoping that I will be able to look at engagement gifts for them.

I came across these unique Tyrone Bell’s that come in different styles all symbolizing different things for the couple. For instance the Tyrone Bangor Bell is presented to the couple to help solve “differences,” and the Tyrone Belfast Bell is for helping the couple to be ready for all those very “happy” years of married life together. I think they are so pretty, and you can also have them engraved with the couples name.
