Goodmorning!!
Hi!! How is everyone?? Great here.....so in case word hasn't gotten around yet (which I am sure it has), Jeff proposed yesterday!!! I am engaged!! I am very excited, and he wanted to do it before everyone came in for the wedding so I can show everyone my ring (thoughtful right?!)!!! So I have to get to work now, since I have only been talking and smiling since I got here and definitely not working! But I cannot wait to see everyone next week!
Love you all,
Susan
Love you all,

Work it make it do it Makes us harder better faster Stronger
So I work at PetSmart and a few weeks ago we got a new manager, i loved my old one, he was the best but this new one is really cool too just some people dont like her cause she follows the rules to the tee lol. at petsmart each store is given a certain amount of hours to give to their employees and our old manager Sam just gave hours out the wazoo lol like he would give me 30 hours a week or so, which i asked for cause i like my job and its more money but he was going over on hours and everything so the first thing our new manager is doing is fixing the hours by cutting everybody back some last week i had four hours!!!!! so i talked to her and was like i cant live off 4 hours a week blah blah blah and she felt bad but there was nothing she could do and then she got an email from one of our sister stores that said they needed help and can give lots of hours. Basically its only an extra three miles so im transferring their next week, i went in for an interview on monday and it seems like a step up so... yay! lol and every manager that has moved to a different store says it looks good on your petsmart file so thats good too.
sorry that took so long
Halloweens coming! i was invited to go trick or treating with 2 different groups and to 2 parties and a haunted house but i have to work til 10! which sux cause who's gonna go to petsmart on halloween? so im just gonna go to one of the parties with people i work with cause its a sleepover and starts later

Who The Hell Is This?
I know, I know...i haven't been on in forever, i spent like 2 hours catching up on everyone...and i spent a good portion yesterday with a whole bunch of responses, but my dummy butt forgot to bring all of them in so i just have afew for now....
First and foremost thank you all for your anti-Mazz's sentiment...they are in a downward spiral and i cannot wait to stand over the burniong ashes of the building and urinate all over them....lol... The manager is a jerk and he is literally turning the cool hip place into a drab unexciting place for young professionals to hang out. they are trying to cater to an older crowd, but guess what the older crowd doesn't come out with 8 people on a saturday night, order 8 filet dinners and stay for 3 hours and drink themselves stupid, spending hundreds of dollars. He decided that opera music on a saturday night was a good way to bring in the people...they had the balls to insinuate that i didn't charge anyone for any drinks. they were like, you used to have the crowds bumping till like 4 am did you stop giving stuff out for free. I was like hell no, and f* you for saying that. no one wants to come in and talk to your manager that interjects himself into every conversation held in the restaurant, and more over who would want to go out and hang at a place playing italian tribal music or w/e bs music he listened to. it was horrible, i went from making 300-600 a week cash to making less than 150 in 2 nights. I took myself off of the schedule for saturdays and only worked wednesdays, they then called me up and told me it was pointless for me to be on the schedule for one day a week and that they wanted me more or nothing, so i told them to F* off...
well thanks for listening to that rant.
so my tux for uncle dave's wedding cost $160....to rent, they told me i'd get to keep the socks, but if they're used socks then i'll prolly slap them in the face with them,.....lol....
olivia- i'm so excited you made it to the blog! my cell number is 716-480-2420. Get your brother on here and remind your sisters to pop in and say hello, we miss them, and you all...
It def sux that you're missing your homecoming, but Uncle Daves wedding is gonna be alot of fun...i'll smuggle you drinks like i did for joe at tricia's wedding, which was a riot might i add!
bernadette- i'm sorry i totally forgot abotu the walk until i saw you guys come in from it and grandma's andwas like, how come i didn't get a reminder....but duh....idiot....i didn't check the blog, there were like 8 of them....
with your tire situatuion, you can put air in a tire with a slow leak. my back tire had a slow leak for like 6 months before i got a replacement on, and i'm sure by now its already replaced, but for future reference.
Sorry about Sammy, he was a cool pooch, but i think you did the right thing for him, and as hard as it was he's better off for it. have you guys thought abotu a kitten? they really don't need as much attentionas a dog. i never had one, but i couldn't imagine living without little Zink...she is a cutie.
susan- you're fitting an awful lot into the week after you get back, i say maybe get a little bit taken care of before you go, perhaps try and work out a deal with the dealer before we go, that way when its time to turn it in you already know what you're gonna do. just a suggestion, take it with a grain of salt if you want...i'm, also gonna suggest buying a car thats like 2 or 3 years old, you'll get it for half price, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MILEAGE, and even better when your term is up you get to keep it, now you have an asset, and of course it depreciatedin value from the time you bought it, but you're not just giving it away when the term is up. you could sell it after a year and sometimes get more than you paid for it leaving you the ability to buy more of a car with your next purchase.
sarah- hope you liek Kohl's, hopefully i'll be able to get you into M&T. have you heard from them? i hope so, you would love the branch i want you to go to, everyone is really nice there, plus i know like half the bank, so you'd be a superstar rightaway...! lol...
jen- i hope you're doing well with Mia in school....she's gotta be a trip there, i can't even imagine how much the teacher loves her in the class...Mia is a celebrity! 100% I can't wait to see you guys in a few weeks
trisha- WE'VE BEEN CHATTING ON E-MAIL, BUT I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO FEEL LEFT OUT HERE! LOVE YA
Well i gotta jet
I Love All Of You,

Hello!
Hi! How is everyone? Pretty good here....today is our extension deadline at work, and guess what....we just finished our last tax returns 15 minutes ago! We are leaving on time! I am very excited. I am going to go home, shower, and Sarah is going to cut my hair after she gets back from dinner at Grandma's. Ok, so I have some news for everyone....since Lauren doesn't get on here much, I'm breaking the news for her...Alex did not get approved for his visa, so lauren is actually going back to Columbia on Saturday. She is going for 3 weeks and then coming back here the day before Uncle Dave's wedding, staying for the wedding, going to Spain with us, and sticking around for Thanksgiving, and then going back to Columbia. So, that's the situation....we are sad she is leaving, but at least she'll be back in 3 weeks! Oh and Olivia, take care of your ankle...ice it, elevate it, wrap it. What you did was my first injury, and I didn't take care of it good enough, so I kept re-injuring it, and 9 years later..surgery! Oh so my surgery, they are cutting the tendons in half, 'welding them' on top of eachother to make them tighter, removing a bone spur, and he said I have ligament damage on the side and back (?) and cartilage damage on top, so basically surgery on the entire ankle!! hahah off of work for at least 3 weeks tho!!! Alright, I am going home now (yah!) Have a great night everyone.
Love you,
Susan
Love you,
Susan

Adopted
Sam got adopted this past friday. It is good to know that someone else is loving him and taking care of him now. I hope he is happy and that the family is happy with him.
Tricia- I have a HEPA filter too but something is wrong with my vacuum. It leaves chunks of fuzz all over. Same color as the carpet. I have the setting on the thickest carpet and it still does not seem to pick up right. I have to stop every minute or two and scoop out the fuzz stuck in the bottom. Any suggestions?
I can't remember if I posted on here about Grace's bachelorette, in case some of you out of towners can make it. It will be saturday, November 1st. We plan to go to a bunch of the wineries on the niagara wine trail by me, go out for dinner, then go to the casino. I think Uncle David has agreed to drive us. So far there is Grace, me, her aunt, my mom, Lauren, and Stephanie (depending on a babysitter). Susan and Sarah- are you both working? Two of Grace's bridesmaids are coming in town but I don't think until sunday. The one just got mugged and hurt pretty bad (I think she was pushed into the cement sidewalk) so Grace does not think they would want to go to all the festivities we have planned... so saturday seemed to work better for most of us.
So I need all new tires on my car before winter and especially now that I learned I have a slow leak from a nail. I went saturday (I had an appointment) to a local guy near me that knows Bob's family (and has a weird fascination with Connie, who is 25 years younger than him). Anyway, I get there and he tells me the tires are not in yet. So now I go tomorrow and miss an hour of work. The tires had better be there! I am afraid to drive with the one with the leak much longer. At least tomorrow will not be busy with work. The students have off. They have off today too, and the university is closed so I have off but I am finishing an editing project due tonight. The customer requesting the editing speaks something other than English as her first language and writes so poorly that I have made literally thousands of changes. It has taken me a long time to do this paper. I can't wait to be done with it!
Ok, that about all I have to say for now ;)
See everyone in less than a month for the wedding!!

Sunday
Olivia--We have at least one birthday in every month. That's cool!
Sarah--when will you know if you will be working at Kohl's? That would be great. Perfect time to start getting a store discount, since the holidays are coming.
Susan--Getting a new car is so exciting! Have you seen the new Ford Fusions? I like them and I love the ice blue color it comes in. Your trip sounds awesome! Be sure to take lots of pictures and more importantly, eat lots of great food! Why are you having ankle surgery? What are they going to do?
Let's see, what is new here? The weather is beautiful. Oh, and I got a new vacuum cleaner. I know, that isn't too exciting but for me it is. Duke sheds terribly and for some reason our old vacuum didn't pick up his dog hair. The new one works great and it has a HEPA filter and this cool feature where it sucks from the side too so it gets everything along the edges of the walls. Its the little things in life that excite me, really. :-)
I'm off to get Dave out of bed. Daniel has tried unsuccessfully so its my turn!
Love,
Tricia

car
Well, I am already over on my miles for my car now (it's a lease, up at the end of December). So if Volkswagen gives me a good deal on a new car, and wipes out what I owe in miles, I will probabaly just get another Passat (I really do love my car). But, if they don't make it worth it, I saw a commercial for the new Mazda 6 that came out (they changed the body style), so I was going to go look at them too. Whatever is cheaper is really what I am going to get!

Who?
Who posted that last message needing phone numbers?
So anyways, hi everyone! How are you doing? I am ok here, we have a deadline at work this coming Wednesday, but surprisingly, we've only been working like 50 hours/wk!! I am very excited to not be living here like I was last month!
So very exciting news for Mark, Lauren, and me....so I am pretty sure everybody knows we are going to Spain next month for a week. Well, we looked into airfare, and listen to the itinerary we made: we land in Madrid on Sunday morning, we spend the night there, the next day we fly to Rome, spend the night there, then we fly to Paris, spend one night there, and then fly to Barcelona. There we are going to spend the night, rent a car, drive down the coast of the Mediterranean, spend the night in Valencia (the town where Lauren used to live on the coast), then drive to Madrid, spend the night, and fly out the next day!!! And guess how much those 3 plane tickets cost around Europe....$100 each!!! Isn't that crazy! We are so excited!
I am just stressed for the next month leading up to the trip because in that time I need to buy all my Christmas gifts and work out a deal for a new car! I have to do that before because a week after I get back from Spain, I am having my ankle surgery, and I'll be on crutches (and there is no way I want to walk in the mall during winter on crutches, or through a dealership parking lot)!!
Well, somebody write and update us on your life!!
Love you,
Susan

Happy Birthday Kristy!!!!!!!
well first of all i just wanted to say happy birthday to kristy! i hope you have a wonderful day!
sorry i havent blogged lately, nothing much was going on with me, so i just didnt blog. for the out of towners- on thursday, before our grandparents dinner, i was over at grandma and grandpas, when i heard a knock on the door. (grandma snuck downstairs to do laundry when i was putting away the dishes from the dishwasher.) i opened the door and jean and jen were there asking if it was grandpas birthday, i said that it wasnt today, that it was the 5th. jen, the older one (93) insisted that it was that day, and they came in and gave grandpa a card and a shirt. it was very sweet. they were telling us how they were going to spillios for dinner, a resturant around the corner from their house. jean (85) was saying that they had been to spillios a few days before but jen wanted to go back. well, our dinner was alot of fun. we went to tullys. grandma and grandpa really enjoyed themselves. after mark and i dropped grandma and grandpa off at there house. the next morning i went over to grams, she told me that jean had been over earlier and that her and jen got in an accident the night before. jen was in the hospital with three broken ribs. later, we talked to sandy (jens daughter) and jean. jen wasnt doing well and didnt even realize that sandy was there with her. well jen died friday night- saturday morning. yesterday was the memorial service, i think my mom took a few hours off of work to take grandma. we had jean over for breakfast on sunday and grandmas been over there checking on her, bringing food. just thought i would make sure everybody knows.
well i start a second job on thursday. i got a job at kohls! mostly because ive been bored, and hang out with cooper for about 4 to 5 hours a day, gets a little boring. so hopefully i like it, cuz i get an extra 15% discount on clothes!
well again, kristy have a wonderful day! and i love and miss you all!

(grandma snuck downstairs to do laundry when i was putting away the dishes from the dishwasher.) i opened the door and jean and jen were there asking if it was grandpas birthday, i said that it wasnt today, that it was the 5th. jen, the older one (93) insisted that it was that day, and they came in and gave grandpa a card and a shirt. it was very sweet. they were telling us how they were going to spillios for dinner, a resturant around the corner from their house. jean (85) was saying that they had been to spillios a few days before but jen wanted to go back. well, our dinner was alot of fun. we went to tullys. grandma and grandpa really enjoyed themselves. after mark and i dropped grandma and grandpa off at there house. the next morning i went over to grams, she told me that jean had been over earlier and that her and jen got in an accident the night before. jen was in the hospital with three broken ribs. later, we talked to sandy (jens daughter) and jean. jen wasnt doing well and didnt even realize that sandy was there with her. well jen died friday night- saturday morning. yesterday was the memorial service, i think my mom took a few hours off of work to take grandma. we had jean over for breakfast on sunday and grandmas been over there checking on her, bringing food. just thought i would make sure everybody knows.
well i start a second job on thursday. i got a job at kohls! mostly because ive been bored, and hang out with cooper for about 4 to 5 hours a day, gets a little boring. so hopefully i like it, cuz i get an extra 15% discount on clothes!
well again, kristy have a wonderful day! and i love and miss you all!

Thats gonna leave a mark!
Hey everybody!!
i think we all know what thats from lol, by the way the last one was from ace venture pet detective lol
Bernadette-I’m sorry about Sam hopefully next time you’ll find the dog that is perfect for you!
Tricia-- I do work at petsmart and I actually work in the fish/reptile/small animal/bird department so if you guys have any questions when you go there the person you’re asking is doing the same job as me =] lol I actually have a couple fish tanks at school I have 3. They’re 55 gallon tanks I love them and my fish.
So college ugh lol umm.. I’m looking into ECC for now but I was thinking that I might stay in Florida just a little bit longer maybe go to Sante Fe Community College for a little bit and see if UF would want me because I know my dad wants me to go there and my teacher wants me to too and she’s on the board of something so she might be able to get me in. I don’t know for sure. But I graduate in June so…! I really want to be a vet.
My school is starting to do surgeries next month and I get to help with them! I’m so excited we spay and neuter a couple cats or dogs a week and I get to like hold the skin open or hand the instruments to them. I cant wait.
I registered to vote last Friday, I’m excited that I get to vote!!
So I spent all weekend with my friends in Tampa and I had a blast but I’m super exhausted and am going to finish my down syndrome paper and then go to bed cause its 5:00 and time for bed lol
Love all
Olivia

It's October already!
Hello my dear cousins,
It is October. "Don't you just love New York in the fall. It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would buy you a bouquet of sharpened pencils, if I knew your name and address." Joe Fox (played by Tom Hanks in You've Got Mail). Love that movie!
Anyway, it is October and with that comes the cold weather. It is supposed to be in the 30's tonight. I love fall though and I enjoy that cold crispness in the air.
What is new with everyone? Nothing really going on here. Oh, well, on Sunday we are getting a family portrait taken. We, as in me, Dave and the boys, Jenn, Mike and the girls, and our parents. We are having it down in my parent's yard near the pond. Jenn and I hired a photographer for it as our parent's anniversary gift. I am looking forward to it.
QOTW: Fall TV...who's watching what???
So far I am watching Brothers & Sisters, 'Til Death, The Biggest Loser, The Office and I saw the first half of Grey's Anatomy. I'm not really into Grey's this year which is disappointing because I really like the show. This season seems to me, so far, to be much of the same.
Well, I am sitting in bed with winter PJ's on and the blankets and I am freezing! I feel like there is a cold breeze in my room. Don't know why I am so cold. Dave has shorts and a t-shirt on and isn't cold at all. Maybe I am just tired? So, I will go to bed and see if that warms me up! Good night!
Love,
Tricia
