5 days.. Thats it.. 5 days and I live in Fla again.

We're leaving Sunday.. Its been madness around my house.. Trying to pack up everything and live out of boxes.. Hard living right there lol.. This week is going by so slow I could just bang my head on a wall. Yesterday we got the car worked on, we're gonna need new rotars but we got the oil changed. We'll do that in Fla. We pick up the trailer tomorrow so we can start loading it up at our pace. We're waiting for out landlord to come and inspec the place sometime this week and then that should be it for NH. Tom has work Wed-Sat but they said they won't have him doing too much, because if he makes arrests and stops he's liable to have to go to court and they'll have to fly him back up for that. And they're cheap asses and wouldn't pay for anything no pay= no come...

I can't wait to be back in Fla (never in my wildest dreams thought I'd say that.) But I can't wait to see my sister and brother and hopefully buy a house in the next year.. It'll be nice.... So long NH.. I won't miss ya!

So...

So things aren't going exactly how I had planned for the winter here in NH. I've actually come to hate it. I keep asking myself why the hell and I sitting here right now, a space heater blasting on me, I'm still cold, and and still snowing when I can be in Fla right now BBQing on the beach? This is fucking retarded. So that being said Thomas and I have decided to move back to Fla.. That decision was made after only 6 months of living in NH lol.. And I thought I'd last at least 2 years to show everyone up. (yah I know about the bets we'd be back after a year)

We're hoping that the CCSO will hire Tom back , even if its for 911 dispatcher he said he'll take it. Even though he is a certified police officer. But they have a retarded rule of not taking officer till 18 months.. Tom will have 12 in June. I can't wait till Dec of next year ! Its too long... I just wanna get outta here. The stark grey days, the horrible snow and cold. FORGET IT.. All that being said here's some pictures..

Thank god a vacation

So I'm going to Florida on Sunday! I have to fly though,, thats never a good thing! But anything to get the hell out of NH. I never thought I could hate a place more than Fla.. no seriously I never did. The PD here is JOKE! No wonder they let bank robbers get away on bikes (I wish I was joking)... They enjoy fucking over my husband, and have a thing about ordering not asking. Sorry guys dunno how you think you should be do it, but calling someone the DAY BEFORE Christmas and Thanksgiving and ordering them to work isn't how we do it in the real world. I told my husband he should have told them we were out of state, he was nice enough to go in.. We won't be so nice it keeps up.. Btw why is it my husband literally had to beat someones ass to get any respect at the PD? Is that was the PD prides themselves on, having to take down someone at gun point for fear of their own life in order to respect someone? Twisted no? Well they can shove it....

I think its pretty sad when my husband was #1 on all stats for tickets, DUI's etc for the entire YEAR last year, and he only got in 5 months of work cause he was at the academy!! Something wrong there no? He makes minimum 4 arrests a week.. One guy there made his first arrest of the YEAR last week.. Slackers? They're amazed he finds drunk drivers.. WTF Are you kidding????? My husband found one at 11 am on a Tuesday morning, and they can't find them on the night shift on a Saturday night at the college parking lot.. I could find them, and I'm not even certified.. It aint hard people...

CAN YOU TELL I NEED A VACATION!

I hope to hell we don't have to stay here till June! I wanna be out sooner and so does Tom.

I've come to realize that NH and most of NE have a thing about sweeping their dirty laundry under the carpet to put on a false image for people. God forbid you say anything terrible about this state, people are on you like white on rice in a snowstorm. BTW dunno if anyone in Keene got the message but NO you do not need to know my business.. They're so fucking nosey here, even at the PD its like wtf leave it alone... My husband said he has personal family business to attend to in Fla, and he does, their reply well we need more info than that or we won't excuse you.. EXCUSE ME???? What part of personal do you not understand? I mean fuck how much do you want to know about us? You want my fucking menstral cycle days? Fuck off Keene PD. No you can't know more.. its P-E-R-S-O-N-A-L!

We did our taxes yesterday. At least that's outta the way, we were expecting more back but oh well not a biggie we're getting enough to move so I'll take it.

Anywho like I said going to Fla for a little vacation be there till Friday so thats nice. I'm a lay on the beach totally get a sunburn and not regret any skin cancer that may come of it. I'm gonna chill with my gf kayla and her kiddies and my brothers and sister.. Its gonna be so damn nice.. And I can wear my new LLBean sandals I bought.. I wanna go pack right now! AHHH Florida how I miss you

Your Monday Photo Shoot: What's On Your Porch?

This week, the Photo Shoot is going outdoors -- but not too far:

Your Monday Photo Shoot: Show us something of interest on your porch. If you don't have a porch, you can substitute front steps, back steps and patios. If you've none of those things, then just find something out the window. If you don't have a window, move.

Well the thing is I don't really have a porch.. per se... except a blizzard from yesterday..... and a beach chair from Florida that has become completely obselete.. I love New Hampshire! No seriously I do!!

Okay count the steps....

"UMMMMM yeah hunny I think we lost a step"

Oh no wait... the shovel found it

over 20 inches of snow. 4th snow storm of the week ... the snow is chest high on me.

up to the windows

Monday Photo Shoot: Frosty!

The weather outside hasn't been frightful, but it's definitely been getting cold, which inspires this week's Monday Photo Shoot:

Your Monday Photo Shoot: Show something frosty. A frosted window pane, a frosty mug of beer, a pet coming in from the cold -- if it's frosted, it's in. If it's not particularly frosty where you are, or you don't have any frost laden pictures in your archives: Fake being cold. Because that would be funny

Living up in New Hampshire we get plenty of snow.. Especially with the Nor'easter last week , ice this week and snow on top of that! I love every minute of it though and I wouldn't trade it for anything... Check em out.

My yard was lonely the other day, so we built a little friend..

Round Robin Challenge

Sun, 07 Oct 2007 15:33:15 GMT

Sorry I'm a bit behind on the Photo Challenge, I have been under the weather the past 3 days and I finally gave in last night and ended up in the ER at 1 am.. I have an infection in my throat and my vocal chords are swollen.. I've been ordered to not talk for 3 days. My husband is estatic to say the least. So without further delay I will now post the challenge..

"Backyard Photography"

From Tammie Jean; "What I like best about backyard photography (or photography at the local park) is that you don't have to go very far to get great shots - there are plenty of opportunities right there in front of you."

Well as seeing as I don't literally have a backyard to speak of cause I'm just renting till we buy a house next year I'm going to go with the next best thing and show you just around the town a bit.. It is my backyard that I like to drive through on weekends and take pictures.

This is less than 5 minutes from my house.. Its Surry Dam

Here's some of my favorite places around town

The waterfall

My Stone House, I pass this daily and I just love to look at it, espcially now that the leaves are changing

I like to sit here sometimes and read or just walk.

This is about as backyard as you can get here. Its the sky behind my house one night. Isn't it great!
