Wow, what a fancy tittle ha. Any-who, What is new with me...
Weeell, A lot has happened in the past couple of days. First off; I got in my missing work in at school ha. Nothing wrong there. Secondly; I have a day off today. Thirdly; Me and Dustin had a festive day... ha went out and took tons of sweet pictures.. I still can't decide which ones are my favorites just yet. Thirdly in a half; My dad, has let me actually touch his film camera... and boy was I excited ha. I just got my film finished yesterday, soo I brought it into my photography class today to develop. But unfortunately, I have to wait till tomorrow to develop it.. Shame. Fourthly; If that is a word.. I have noticed lately, that now that summer is JUST around the corner, people begin to sweat more. And when I say people, I mean my dad. PEWEE, his feet stink ha. :) Annnd Fifthly; KENNY IS COMING HOME!!! Yay, excitement ha. I can't wait till he comes home, and gives me an Oil Change :) haha. Although, my mom says that he will be too busy to do so, I am only doubting his words. Because he DID promise me that he will. ha.
Hmm what else is new... Not much ha. Soo I'm going to call it a night, start doing some homework. Later Gater :)

It's Kristi Again

Well as you can see by the title....it's Kristi. Not much new with me. Kenny is coming home Friday and I can't wait. It's too bad that Megan, Kari, Josh and Jenny wont be here but we will all be here for the Graduation Parties. You know the Graduation party that is on Friday, June 11.....the party where Kelli and I have to entertain our friends and Kim and Kari have to bust their butts in the kitchen...lol.
Because Emma-Jean and Karissa posted it on facebook and like 150 extra people are coming. How the heck do we know how much food to make?

I can't wait for the food. I think it's my favorite thing about a party. Who doesn't like a good dip. Chip dip, taco dip, veggie dip, fruit dip. I'm pretty much a dip-lover. Jacob and I like to eat dip with our chips. (even with fingers) I do hate it when my chip breaks off in the dip. What's a person to do. You don't want to leave it in there. You have to pick it out. You can try to scoop it out with your next chip but personally, I like to stick my fingers in the dip and retrieve the broken one. I know you're probably one of those people who don't double-dip, but I am. I guess if you don't like it you should keep your chips out of my dip. I wont feel bad......just more for me!

You know when no one is looking you probably double-dip too. I don't like when little kids double-dip in my dip. That's just not right. But when I'm alone with MY DIP...I like to double-up.

Okay....enough about dips. I'm getting hungry.

Later.

Kristi

Wow, alright.

( it's karissa :P )

So I just got home from work a little bit ago. And I must say, it was one hell of a day. It was the busiest Sunday we've had at Subway in a LOOOONG time, and I got the joy of working 2-1015. Next time I get scheduled that shift, I might just tell my boss to go suck a big one.
Anyways. Enough with work. I went to Milwaukee with FBLA on Friday. Toured UW-Milwaukee, went to the iMax and saw a show on ocean creatures (aka; took a nap), and then went to the Mayfair mall, where we got yelled at by security guards because apparently you have to be over 18 to be in there after 3pm. BOGUS! But it was all in fun. And we got to go to the Brewer game after, which was fun; Although I didn't so much enjoy getting flashed by a 21 year old drunk chick multiple times. It was...interesting? Thank God she got kicked out.
I'm in dire need of a vacation. All I do is school during the week, and work on the weekends. I rarely do anything fun anymore, LAMEE. I kind of want to go to prom in a few weeks, but I have a strange feeling my boss won't give me off work. I left him a note telling him I needed off of work May 1st and May 8th, and what does he do: Schedules me to work 430-730! I know that's only 3 hours a day, but honestly? I asked OFF. But I got my May 1st shift covered, so now I'll for sure make it to church that night. But I'm in the middle of a huge dilema about May 8th! My mom scheduled a tanning appointment for me for 1pm, and I don't wanna reschedule! So I kindly asked another person to work for me, or to switch around our hours a bit, so I could work in the morning, get done at 1130, and then he can come in and work the remainder of the night. But, of course, he's too rude and won't respond with a decent enough yes/no answer so I know. GRR.
Anywho. I might wanna stop typing. It's already 11pm, and I have to shower and finish my 6 chapters of notecards due tomorrow for AP Psychology. I highly doubt I'll finish them all without falling asleep. Wish me luck.
Oh, and Billy must be dreaming. Because he's growling and barking. At first I thought it might be Shelly he was doing that to, but his head is faced toward a pillow, so it can't be. Hahah.
Goodnight! -Karissa.

Hi Everybody!

Hello everyone, it's Jenny. I know I'm not technically family, so I hope nobody objects to me writing on your family blog. I feel like you are all family, and I feel luck to know all of you. So, to update on what's going on... well, Josh and I leave next Thursday for Las Vegas. Neither of us have ever been there and I am SUPER excited! No, we aren't getting married :) We are going out to try to win the big bucks so none of us ever have to work again so send some luck our way. Thinking about Las Vegas is a great way to distract myself from finishing up my final schoolwork for the semester. Leading up to leaving for our trip on Thursday I have a final exam for Monday, a 20 minute presentation for Tuesday, and a 6 page paper for Wednesday. I will definitely be ready for vacation after that. Speaking of vacation, I have to agree with everyone else that I am really excited for camping again this year. I have never camped the way that you guys camp before, and I have to say you all got it right. Everyone should camp like that! Ok, enough rambling from me. Have a great day!

Painter

I loved college. I loved painting. I am officially 2 years out of school and I have made only a dozen paintings/drawings since... I know that my hiatus has to eventually come to end and I am starting to sense that it will be soon. Once I have that fiery ambition back there is only one problem... I have no space! As you guys know I gave up the idea of studio space after college so I could afford the gallery space. Along with the effort to foot the gallery bill I also had to bring in an extra roommate, which equals even less space! There is a great old warehouse down the street that has really affordable rooms and I could literally walk or pedal to the place!! So until then I need to start brainstorming artistic subject matter. To paint or not to paint Hostess Desserts...??? MMM :)

Update?

Oooh-tay... Well, I'm looking back at what everyone else has written, and must I say I like it ha. Although, I am jealous because it sure looks like everyone else has a much better, and more exciting life right now.
Anyways... What's the update with Michaela? Nothing. Not at all. I went to work today, that couldn't have gotten anymore lamer than what it was. I slacked off in school today; although, I am doing good. I got a 3.5 soo that is a plus. Umm, I went to the boys baseball game last night with Karissa, and man did that bring back memories. Who knew I was so much like my mom... Girly. ha umm.. I have a new project due for Photography, and I have the idea in my head, but I have no clue how to do it. Mainly because I know of nobody who likes a close-up of his/her face. Sooo Idk about that idea. Umm, just when Manitowoc got the hint of warm weather, it has slipped away.. which is a dis like. and I feel like I'm loosing money, cause all I do is get my Four hundred dollar check, and have to send it away to my brother, my car, and more lame stuff. I went from 480 to 70 in a matter of three days. SUCKS.
BUT on the flip side, I get to lay around now cause I just got done with work ha. Soo I think im going to conclude this.

So Heres a deep one.

So its Kenny.. I must say that its been a busy couple of months for me. I have recently took the biggest job i have done at work so far so its been a mess. I have been doing some things i have not done in a while. but I am going home in less than two weeks to see my family so i have been really excited. but I had recently seen a pic of the closest person that i had in my family. I dont have to list a name because those of you that know me know exactly who i am talking about. I was just going throguh stuff on facebook and i seen a pic of him in a pic with karissa from when he was about 5 or 6. It then brought me to myspace where I went to his page and found that I had went from full of energy to completely drained of it all.. Remebering all that I had lost and forgot how much I miss him. Its amazing how you can flip 180 on how you are feeling just by looking at a picture. I dont know but I feel that what I have done with my self Kasey would have been proud and supportive of all the things that I have done with myself ever since high school. But yet I think to my self was it all worth it. Leaving home almost exactly a month after graduating high school and moving 8 hours away from everything that I have ever know. Giving up all my friends and family for the persute of what I can make of my self. Its what the say is the american dream. Going from living off your parents to livin completely on your own half way across the country. Yet I think to my self was it worth it. My mom always told me go out and do something with your self. Dont make a mistake and doing what Josh did and having a kid and being stuck here. At the time I always seen it as the right thing but now looking back i dont think that josh has it so bad. He has an amazing son in Jacob. Lives just minutes from my parents and gets to go to work with my dad. To me he is doing a awesome dad and reminds me a lot of my dad with us going up. Trying to do any thing and everything for us. i dont konw. I am successful in most people's minds for doing all that I have done at such a young age. Yet I would some times give it all up. Some times I wish that I never left for college so fast. I almost wish that I would have waited. I would have been able to send more time with my family. I would have been able to spend more time with Kasey. Be closer to Jacob. I dont want to the uncle that only comes home a few times a year for most of his life. I know that I will not be in boston the rest of my life. I dont want to be like my dads brother and only remember seeing him a few times growing up. I want to be more like my Uncle John who was always there for me. If every I wanted to do some thing with him like play catch I knew he always was willing. Allthough he some times was not the best at it but he was always there for me growing up. But most of all I wish I could have spent more time with Kasey. I feel that I kind of ran away when things were getting the worst for him. I feel in a way that I let him down. Its like they say if you can not deal with the things at home you run away to some where else. But I know through talking to him that he never thought that I did. I remember talking to him after he was given 6 months to live. I was devistated and just could not stop thinking about it. I know this because my friends and teachers kept asking me what was up with me and what was wrong. But later that night when he told me that he was not going to let this stop him. It did not mater to him that they give him 2 days to live he was not going to give up. He was going to keep on fighting. From there I knew that it was going to be ok but now that he is gone I just feel like something is missing when ever I see a picture of him. I dont know if after loosing him and having so much trust in some one and loosing them that I dont trust people as much any more. Or if its also the reason why I just can not warm up to new people. I know my mom keep asking me if i have met any gilrls out here. Well I have met a few but I dont know I just have not been able to open up and be my self. But i feel that when you loose some one that close to you that you are just not the same. I remember at his funeral I kept hearing I dont know how you can be as strong as you are. But you know its just one of those things that you have to do. No one ever wants to loose there best friends that you have known there entire life. No one should ever have to go through it. But you know what life has its ups and downs. You just have to deal with it. Taking each day at a time and dealing it as it comes. But when i was home for Christmas I was at the bar and I ran into Kevin. I must say that ever since Kasey passed a way I could not talk to kevin and start crying. I dont know why because He is pretty much just like me and alone and dealing with a loss as big as what i had. But at christmas I was able to talk with him and catch up on how he was doing. I knew that while talking to him he was taking it hard but you know what I know that I was too. But talking to him helped me ease some of the pain and reminded me on how important family is. This is why it sucks that i can not come home more often. But i am coming home in 10 days and again for graduation. So sorry if this made you feel like I am depressed. But sorry You have it totally backwards. I am doing great. I love my job. I still think to my self from time to time that I am getting paid to do something I love. SO thanks to everyone for all the support and I look forward to hugs from each and every one when I come home and maybe a beer or two. LOL

My birthday!

My birthday's in about 4 days! Hope you all can come on Friday for my party. I love all ya!

I Do...

I stumbled upon this video yesterday. I love this bitch. I thought it would be a good first post from me. ~Heatha'

True Love is a Shiny New Bicycle

So I need some suggestions as to what I should name her... What do you guys think?? <3

Alright, I'll try it too.................it's Kelli, so if you get chinese letters, or symbols, or you don't get it at all, you'll understand why.

I've noticed that Karissa and Taylor have already been signed in and posted their comments. It's absolutely pathetic when your kids (especially an 11 year old) knows more about technology than the parent.

I'm excited about this thing really. Since I've been told I'm too old for face book and nobody goes on Myspace anymore, and nobody calls me to shoot the shit, I'll be able to know what's going down with ya'll. Now I might feel accepted, even though I'm old. HOW EXCITING!!!

The problem is, I really have no life. I seriously have like nothing to report. If you all want to hear about my day at work, cooking, dishes, laundry, etc. you're totally in luck!!

I really do wish I could go to visit Kenny or Heather. I can't even find time to visit Megz in Milwaukee though. LOSER I know. That's me.

Can't wait until summer though, when the bon fires and camping will start up again.

Sorry for boring you all............well, that is if I even did this correctly.

Billy's started playing with shoes in his free time. Apparently he now gets bored during the day when nobody's home with him. He's getting quite annoying, actually. We give him no less attention than we used to, yet he seems like he's good enough to recieve more and more on a daily basis. It's pretty funny, for the most part. Yet gets frusterating when he won't leave you alone. What's up with that? I wish I could say the same about Billy that Meg does for George. Yet the food issue doesn't seem to be the reasoning. He's just too darn spoiled!
-kar.

George's Stomach

So George was completely sleepless a few weeks ago. I would wake in the middle of the night to him roaming about my room, rearranging furniture and trying on my shoes. Night after night I tried and tried to find a solution, but often would get too frustrated and would throw him out into the cold house; no dog bed and no shoes to play with....
After many nights of sleeplessness, for both of us, the answer to the issue came to me in the form of a loud roar from George's apparently empty stomach... his eating schedule was off! His roaming and playing in the middle of the night was a cry for food!
Who know that an adult dog would need their food intake regulated after a few years of puppy grazing...

So happy that I no longer have to share my shoes.

Sleep tight!

Love,


Megz

New Ways

Hmm who would have guessed that: facebook, twitter, and myspace would have ever gotten old. I remember when I was younger and we would visit grandma's house. We would watch tv and listen to the radio; Oh yeah, don't forget the Dream Street Concert on VHS... ha. I don't even think I was aware of cell phones... man times sure have changed. Then again, I'm only sixteen.. Picture things for Josh or Meg? haha Old farts :) Anyways, I really like the idea of this thing. Any-who... I really have nothing exciting going on with my life right now. I go to school, work, and do homework. Although, sadly I'm liking school more and more everyday. Maybe because i finally have some "idea" of what I want to do with my life. So I'm assuming that, that was something new? ha Anyways, I'm looking forward to reading more stories on this baby. So get typing! Including my auntie Kelli ha.
-Michaela Jo

I don't think I understand this. But it's a good idea, I suppose. Oh yeah; It's Karissa. I forgot we have to say who types it. Anywho. Yeah. I'm gonna hope this works, then I can show my mother how to use it; Although she's not too computer friendly. Ha, ohhh-tay!

Need work

One pleasantly plump middle age man looking for work nothing to strenuous, Who would have thought the roofing business would dry up, everybody needs A roof or that's what I thought. P.S. No cooking cleaning or laundry.Thank you

Hello all! haha its me Emma-Jean Tuesburg. well nothing is really knew with me except i got my prom dress!!! so i'm pretty excited about that. there she is up there :) well i took the ACT of Saturday and didn't finish one section on time! i guess i'm just a slow test taker lol. well this is short but nothing is really knew with me. i hope everyone is doing well love you!

Life is so hard sometimes..
Temptation is out of control. Sometimes it seems like it would just be easier to escape. I miss the people in life that made things easy and simple. I miss being in the state of ecstasy that once existed.
Love is an even harder thing to deal with. Especially when you can't be honest with the ones you love. Finding a way to overcome the feelings that take over. What ever doesn't kill you simply makes you stranger. Love is such an amazing feeling. It can take everything over and make you feel like you're living in a world that doesn't exist to anyone else around you. And it can ruin you. And why do you always hurt the ones that you love the most. I hate it.
Take advantage of the little things that make you happy. There is so much beauty all around. Laughter is the most important thing in life. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh and feel good.
I am in need of a good listener....

Camping.

Family at the drive in when we were camping! Good times! Lol.

It's Taylor.

Heyy.. It's Taylor. I just got it! Lol...

From Bean Town

Well if you dont already know by the title this is Kenny or Kenneth as some may call me. Just thought I would give everyone a quick update in what new on the east coast. It been super hot as far as the weather and as well as my beach bod. Just getting ready for the beach season to start up and riding my bike around to discover more of whats around here. So I am still waiting on my first visitor to come out and see me. Everyone talks about it but still waiting. LoL. So other than that works busy beyond belief now. Which is good. So I did not get to talk to any of yous on EAsteR. So I hope that everyone had a good one. I made sure to make a large dinner of Pizza Rolls and PBR. You know the true american way. As for whats really new there is nothing much here. I got a new bed and am looking forward to going home and EM and Karitas party. So Keep The Posts coming and looking forward to what the rest of you have to say,

It's Kristi
