Anniversary
So on the 9th of August Brody and I will have officially been married for one year and we are both really excited and still madly in love with each other. The only problem is neither of us have got the slitest idea about what to do for our anniversay, we would like to do something kind of novel that we don't do very often or give each other something really great, I guess that we would just like to do something that we will remember for a long time, but we have no money. If you have any good ideas, just post a comment on this blog and let me know, it would be great! I will post another blog after the 9th to let you guys know how it went. Thanks

New apartment
So we finally found ourselves a new apartment, one that's not infested with mold and doesn't hve a stupid landlord attached to it, if we have a problem than we have to go to our RA so hopefully that will work better, but the no mold growing through the paint because our landlord just painted over it, is in and of itself is great. It is 2oo sq feet larger than our old one and it has two bedrooms so we are turning one into a office so that Brody will not have to go to the school library to study. We just barely finished cleaning our old apartment, we moved out Friday and Brody spent all day Saturday cleaning it, but I had to work. I actually called in sick today so that we would finally finish cleaning it, which we did at about 7:00pm which is really nice. I'm glad that neither of us will ever have to go back to that place again other than to do the look over with our old landlord, but I don't know for sure if she will make us do that with her because I know that she didn't with some of the other tenants that used to live there, but I don't know, we'll see.
We aren't completly moved in yet, we pretty much just have boxes everywhere, we have the tv, couch and desk set up but that's about it. We just threw the mattress on the floor and use them like that, we haven't had the chance to put anything away yet so everything is everywhere and when we want to find something than it takes us a few minutes to find it but I have Wednesday and Thursday off this week so I'm going to be spending those days organizing, and relaxing a little bit. Our couch clashes really badly with the carpet so I think I'm going to have to get some material to put over the couch to make it so it's not so bad but it'll be a little while before we can do that, I have to wait till we have money again.
Let's see, what else is happening, I think I twisted my back the other day while I was at work because I was trying to load some drywall into somebody's truck for them and the drywall felt like it wanted to twist and my body was telling me that it couldn't twist like that. After that I went and got somebody else to help the guy load it, but it has been bugging me ever since. Sometimes it hurts and sometimes it just feels twisted, but it hasn't brought me to tears yet so it's not that bad. I think that I will go and see a chiropractor soon though because I can't do very much without it hurting, I probably just popped it out of place. I should probably wear a back brace at work but their gaudy and ugly so I've been putting it off, customers keep lecturing me about it though, lol. I think I will go and look at some at walmart tomorrow and see if I can find some that aren't so bad and than just get the tax credit for it.
I'm really enjoying my new position at work, it's pretty fun and I like driving the machinery around but I don't do it very often because the other guys that I work with usually jump on first. I think that part of the reason is because I'm really slow at driving them and because they like driving them. But I'm getting faster and better the more I drive them so I should just make them let me drive the machinery anyway. I also got a raise at work so that was nice it was about 63 cents worth which is good, it is about what I was expecting but not as much as Brody was but that's alright it makes a differnce and it helps. I also get commision in my new position at work and I will get 29 dollars worth of that on my next pay check so that will be nice too.
Brody is having problems with his truck so he has to check it out tomorrow and see if he can figure out what is wrong with it. It's probably leaking through the head gasket which would be a big problem if it is but it might just be that the timing is off on it which is what I hope is wrong with it because that isn't to hard to fix. He said that it has just been losing compression really bad, so it might take him a while to get it fixed depending upon what's wrong with it. I really hope it's nothing major though. Anyway, that's about it, I will blog again when something else happens.
