This year while David and I were decorating for Christmas and listening to all my favorite Christmas songs, it made me a little sad. I mean I love my husband more then anything and I loved that he helped me decorate, but I did miss my decorating days with my palace mates.
For those who don’t know, my palace mates are the people I lived with in college. We rented a house and we called it the palace. It had 6 bedrooms (which were all huge, except Brittany’s, haha), 1 office, 1 den, 4 full bathrooms, and one kitchen. It was the perfect college house and we loved it. Anyways, decorating for Christmas was an all night event at the palace. We would crank up the Christmas music, run around the house decorating and singing at the top of our lungs and then when Brit wasn’t looking we would grab some tinsel off the tree, since you couldn’t see anything but the tinsel. And when we got finished we usually finished it with a little good ole’ karaoke singing.
It was my most favorite time in the palace. Even though we didn’t have the best decorations AT ALL because we were poor college students, it was still was the best looking decorations, at least at a college house.
So Brit, Lauren and Cait I would have given anything to go back to the palace this year and decorated the house together one more time.
1. Spitting- I hate when people spit…since I am at the drive-thru at the bank I get to look at the gas station next door all day and you would not believe how many people spit. Ugh it is so nasty…I mean I can understand if you were at your house and you spit outside while you were mowing the grass or something. But in front of everybody I just think that is so disgusting.
2. Cockiness- no one cares if you think you are the hottest thing on earth, you don’t have to tell everyone and act like you are. I hate when people think so highly of their selves. No one cares about you.
3. Big WHITE sneakers- First off, if you are not pass the age of 60 you do not need to buy these sneakers. Second, they are so bright they hurt my eyes, go run around in the dirt and get those things dirty.
4. Saggy pants- NO ONE wants to see your beeehind so pull up those pants. Like seriously you cannot even walk when your pants are that long…it drives me crazy.

1. OMG, there needs to be a class that every American needs to take to teach them how to do banking transaction, like filling out a deposit slip and check. And how to keep up with your check register.
2. Please let me sleep just 15 more minutes.
3. Does this outfit make me look fat, no it looks fine, no I don’t like it…
4. Seriously? (my response to my customers)
5. I’m hungry, what can I eat?
6. I do not want to hear about your life story, so shut up and just ask me the question.
7. What show is coming on tonight?

2. My diamond rings- I still sit and stare at them all the time
3. Concealer- To cover up all my zits
4. Sweat Pants, got to be comfortable
5. Coke- I get headaches if I go without my caffeine, but I’m trying to limit myself to only 1 or 2 a day, instead of 5 like I was drinking.
6. Hair rubber band- I usually always have my hair up in a ponytail.
7. Reality TV- I cannot name one show I watch on a regular basic that isn’t a reality show.
8. Camo Red Sox hat- If I’m not at work or church I have my hat on, haha…I’m such a bum

1. When my mom was in labor with me they had to do an emergency c-section so after my mom woke up they brought me in to see her for the first time and my mom looked at my dad and said they brought us the wrong baby. She thought I was either Chinese or black because of how dark I was and my Chinese eyes.
2. I usually change outfits at least 4 times every morning.
3. I cannot drink orange juice because it gives me terrible indigestion.
4. I haven’t grown an inch since I was in 5th grade.
5. I buy Lucky Charms to just eat the marshmallows out of it.
6. I love taking pictures, but I never print them.
7. The second I walk in my house I go straight to my closet and change into my PJs.
8. I want to open a bakery and call it, A Piece of Cake
9. I have 20/13 vision

Today me and Heather, at work, started talking about the addiction we have to chapstick. Anyone close to me or who has every lived with me will know that I do truly have an addiction to chapstick. I guess it started back in elementary school when Lip Smacker chapstick was a big thing. For Christmas every year I got Lip Smackers in my socking and I remember going to the store and being excited about picking out a new flavor of Lip Smacker. I still remember using the Blueberry Lip Smacker in the 4th grade and the boy (Jonathan Hawkins) behind me hated the smell.
Throughout the years I have tried, I believe, every chapstick that is out on the market. When I go into a store and see a new chapstick or a new brand I have to buy it because I have to test it out. From Chapstick, Blistex, Carmax, Nivea, Lip Smacker, Burt’s Beewax, Soft Lips, Top Care and many many many more. I am always willing to try a new chapstick, but I have to say that Blistex is my ultimate favorite brand. The blistex medicate greenish tube is by far the best.
Sitting here thinking about my addiction is really kinda funny. I am not one of those people who can have one tube of chapstick and use it until it is finished and whenever I need it to go get it out of my pocketbook or wherever. I have to have them everywhere I go. I have a tube right beside my computer at work, one in one of my money drawers, 3 in my pocketbook, none in my car because they always melt, 2 in my coffee table drawer, 1 in one of my kitchen drawers, 3 in my nightstand drawer, 1 on top of my nightstand, 1 on my vanity, 1 in the bag I take to church on Wednesday nights, usually one in each of my coat pockets, then of course they are scattered all over my mom’s house. I’m sure there are more hiding places that I cannot think of at this moment. But seriously that is an addiction/obsession.
I should definitely get stock in one of the chapstick brands. I probably spend at least $300 in chapstick a year and a tube usually last about 3 weeks. My next project is going to be counting how many times a day I put it on. I figure I apply it every 20 minutes, 15 hours a day so that equals to about 45 times a day. And anyone who sees me put it on, knows it isn’t just one swipe around the lips, it is back and front on each lip about 8 times.
I know everyone has enjoyed reading about my addiction to chapstick! Let my know about your addictions.

I have been extremely slack lately with my blogging. My life just turned really crazy and I have not even thought about blogging. So here is what I have been up to lately.
I have taken over the Fall Festival at my church this year. Usually they start getting everything together in July and I didn’t start planning until the beginning of September. But I am so excited about it. It is a Fall Carnival this year and I have to say that I think it is going to be pretty superb!
There will be games and booths, a dunking booth, a hayride, cotton candy and popcorn machines, live music, a bounce house, a cake walk, hotdogs, a fire truck and lots more. It has been a lot of work, but I love every minute of it. David complains that it has taken over my life, but it will be over soon.
David and I are planning a little weekend getaway in two weeks. I have that Monday off for Columbus Day so we are going to leave Saturday morning and head up to the Biltmore house and either stay two nights in Ashville or Hendersonville. So I’m pretty excited about that too!
Two weeks ago I was driving to work minding my own business and this deer decides to ram himself into the side of my car. I did not see the deer until I heard a loud bang and looked in my mirror and saw it running across the road. I got out and looked at my car and looked at the side passenger door and it was dented and paint chipped off, but I thought hey not too too big of a deal. Well later on that day when my mom was looking at it she was like, Laura did you not see the huge dent up her and notice that the passenger door will not open. So I have NO clue how the deer hit, but pretty much the whole side of my car is messed up and I cannot open the passenger door. Stupid deer!!!!
Other then that, not much is new. I promise I will try to blog a little more!

In life it always seems like the littlest things always make me smile. So why not share some of my favorite things with my bloggers!
Seeing rainbows after the rain, fall leaves on the road and driving through them, hearing david tell me he loves me, turning on the radio and hearing Kenny Chesney, birthday cake ice cream in a waffle cone, singing amazing grace in church, eating sprees and nerds, riding the chair lift at the fair while eating a corndog, getting into my car after just vacuuming it, the smell of coconut lotion, hot lemon green tea, singing sweet caroline, hearing makaylee say wawee, getting cards in the mail, seeing brandi tilt her head at me when I call her name, thinking of college memories, blankets, hearing marriage proposals, daisies, hearing the whistle at the beginning of an Andy Griffin episode, eating nacho and cheese, seeing people get baptized, baby hands and feet, new chapstick, Christmas decorations and of course my family and friends:)
What are some of your favorite things?

Jersey Shore = most hilarious show on TV. I have to admit I did not
watch the Jersey Shore last year when it came on. David did, but I was
like no, I have too many shows already and I don't need another show.
But when David and I went to the beach in May they had a Jersey Shore
marathon and I caught up and I am addicted now. It is just so funny.
I would have to say Pauly D is probably my favorite, but I love JWoww,
Snooki and The Situation too. I even taught Makaylee to say, "We got a
situation" and she just goes around saying it and it is too too cute. I
don't like Ronnie, Angelina and I don't care for Sammi either. I cannot
stand the whole Ronnie and Sam drama. Vinny is alright.
I don't know if the show is that hilarious or if it is just because Dave
and I watch it together and pause it like a million times and discuss
what just happen and rewind it back to the funny parts. But last night
episode was hilarious. In the hot tub with the grenades and the boobs
floating, Snookie and Vinny on the bean bag together, and why was Vinny
laughing in his sleep?? The MVP outing and leaving Angelina. And the
fight between Angelina and Pauly D, that girl is crazzzy.
I just love the show. It is hilarious and just makes you appreciate your
normal, non-eventful life.
Back in 1999, Nicole Rabon (now Nicole Silvia) asked Mary (my sister), Maegen (my bff) and me to go to a Kenny Chesney concert with her. Kenny was rather new at that time and I didn’t think I knew that many of his songs, but the seats were on like the 8th roll and I believe the tickets were around $15, so I was like what the heck, sure I’ll go. I still remember the outfit I wore. Gray dress pants with cargo side pockets, a black see-thru lacy long-sleeve top with a black spaghetti strap shirt underneath and round toe thick heel zip up black boots…just AWFUL. And my hair, it was really short and curly so if I would have stood beside a picture of little orphanage Annie, well lets just say we would have made a striking resembles. Anyways we go to the concert and after Phil Vassar opened up, we were ready for Kenny to come out. And he came out and so did my obsession. I remember standing and singing his songs and were shocked that I knew so many. As I was singing I kept saying, he is cute, like really cute. I was never the same after that night.
Since then I have been to seven more Kenny concerts and always have had a wonderful time at each one of them. From going up to the stage and holding onto Kenny’s shoe, standing outside for two hours waiting for him to come out of his tour bus and shaking his hand and screaming in his face. From holding up, Lay Us Down Kenny, posters, while he sang Conway Twitty’s, “Lay You Down” song, from getting beer pulled all over brit and mine heads. Painting, We love Kenny and We think Kenny’s tractor is sexy, on Nicole’s car before a concert. And the saddest, watching Kenny’s foot get caught in the stage and ending up breaking his foot.
I have saved every magazine cover Kenny has ever been on, saved all of my concert tickets, have t-shirts that I have wore so much that they have holes all in them, but they will NEVER be thrown away. I have Kenny road signs, pillows, bags, and posters. Of course I have every one of his cds and listen to them religiously. I know every word and every line in all of his songs. I know pretty much everything about him. I am so obsess with this man it’s not funny. And I love my husband even more because he accepts my obsession with no problem.
I don’t know what it is with this guy, but I am and will always be Kenny Chesney’s #1 fan. I just love KENNY CHESNEY.

Pet-peeves…everyone has them, right? Sometimes I think everything people do is one of my pet-peeves, I just have so many. And when I go to Wal-Mart I believe people do every one of my pet-peeves.
I believe my #1 pet-peeve is, Rude Abrupt Stoppers (RAS). That is when you are walking in a store and the person in front of you just stops, dead in their tracks, like HELLO I’m behind you and now you made me slam on my brakes and stop because you are so rude that you can’t step to the side. OMG, this makes me so made I could spit. To all the RAS out there how about next time you decide to stop dead in your tracks, how about stepping to the side and letting the people behind you continue walking. Thank you.
**And by the way I had a RASS the other day, a Rude Abrupt Scooter Stopper. An overweight man was driving the little scooter things in Wal-Mart and stopped in front of me. You know what I did? Ran into the back of his scooter with my buggy and went right around him without even saying sorry, dumb RASS**
Next one is when people push all their fat into pants that are three sizes too small. Yes, I can understand when you gain some weight, it is hard to go up to that next size and you have to give up your favorite pair of jeans, but I don’t understand why you want your fat hanging out over the top of your jeans making you have a muffin top. Seriously, no one finds anything attractive by you wearing those jeans. And if you are one of these tight jean wearers, at least wear an oversized t-shirt so we cannot see your muffin top. Please do wear a tight short shirt where it leaves nothing to the imagination. SICK!
BLINKERS…I don’t mind when people use their blinkers, they should use there blinkers, but if you use it, then don’t forget to turn off your blinkers. Nothing bothers me more while I’m driving then someone who drives fifteen minutes with their blinker just a blinking. OMG can you not hear your blinker ticking? I mean I can kind of understand if it is a teenager because I know they have their radio blaring and they cannot hear the ticking, but most of the time it is old fogeys. And I know they don’t have their radio blaring, but I guess they probably don’t have their hearing aids turned far enough up to hear the little ticking. But anyways no excuse, TURN OFF YOUR BLINKERS.

As y’all all know, I looove celebrity gossip. I live for celebrity gossip. When I get to work in the mornings, my routine is; open the vault, open the night drop box, turn on my computer, open the internet and pull up US Weekly. There is not a day that goes by, that I’m not reading up on celebrities and their lives. I mean their lives are not that different from ours so what makes them so fascinating? And why do I get so obsessed and attached to certain celebrities? If someone says something bad about one of my favorite celebrities, it’s like they just killed my dog or something and it makes me like that person a little less. What is it with me and celebrities?
Well these are my thoughts and some opinions on some of the most popular celebrities…
Anyone that turns on E!, opens a magazine or even pulls up Yahoo, they are going to see something about Lindsey Lohan. How many people are sick and tired of hearing and seeing Lindsey Lohan? I know I am. Yeah, I liked her in Parent Trap and I will even give you Freaky Friday, but now, can we say ewww. She’s awful. Whenever you open a magazine she is either; doing drugs, doing a girl, flashing her girl girl (what Makaylee calls it) or getting into a fight with her wonderful father. I’m sick and tired of hearing about LINDSEY LOHAN!
Recently Ali Fedotowsky has been in the headlines. She is the recent bachelorette and I love herrr. I liked her on The Bachelor, and I’m so glad she didn’t end up with that idiot, but I love her even more now. Tonight she will pick between Roberto and Chris. I have to say I really like both of them equally, but I think I want her to pick Chris. I feel like they would last over her and Roberto lasting. But Ali is so cute and I love her style so I wouldn’t mind keeping her in the headlines even after The Bachelorette.
Anything that has to do with the Kardashians, I’m there. I love this family. Out of the three girls, I would have to say, Kourtney is probably my favorite. Even though she has an awful baby daddy, I think she is so funny with her sarcasms. Anyways I am definitely a Kardashian fan!
Another celebrity that drives me crazy is, Jessica Simpson. From dumping Nick, starting a “media war” with Carrie Underwood, to her dumb show, and her family I cannot stand her. She just bothers me ughhh—why exactly is she famous.. Yeah, she has cute shoes and pocketbooks, but still she’s stupid.
My top most hated celebrities would have to be Spencer and Heidi Pratt. OMG—I cannot stand them. I cannot stand the links they go too to stay in the media and how all Heidi’s plastic surgery has made her look like a horse. I cannot stand how they think that they are normal and everyone else is crazy.
But I do love Heidi’s cd, it is awesome. I listen to it all the time and of course when I go to the beach I run around in my pink bikini and run through the seagulls singing higher, higher, higher :)
Lauren Conrad = my most favorite celebrity. I love LC! This is the one celebrity I think I would have to end a friendship over Lauren if one of my friends didn’t like. I started watching Lauren on Laguna Beach and then of course on The Hills. I love her clothes and I loved her first book- haven’t read the second one yet. I love how she handles herself and her fame. I feel like Lauren and I would be best friends if we met. I just love LAUREN CONRAD. Ok did that not just sound like a crazy stalker, but I promise if I lived in LA, Lauren would have another stalker on her hands, haha.
Tell me about y’alls favorite celebrities, and no one better say anything bad about my!!
Well these are my thoughts and some opinions on some of the most popular celebrities…
Anyone that turns on E!, opens a magazine or even pulls up Yahoo, they are going to see something about Lindsey Lohan. How many people are sick and tired of hearing and seeing Lindsey Lohan? I know I am. Yeah, I liked her in Parent Trap and I will even give you Freaky Friday, but now, can we say ewww. She’s awful. Whenever you open a magazine she is either; doing drugs, doing a girl, flashing her girl girl (what Makaylee calls it) or getting into a fight with her wonderful father. I’m sick and tired of hearing about LINDSEY LOHAN!
Recently Ali Fedotowsky has been in the headlines. She is the recent bachelorette and I love herrr. I liked her on The Bachelor, and I’m so glad she didn’t end up with that idiot, but I love her even more now. Tonight she will pick between Roberto and Chris. I have to say I really like both of them equally, but I think I want her to pick Chris. I feel like they would last over her and Roberto lasting. But Ali is so cute and I love her style so I wouldn’t mind keeping her in the headlines even after The Bachelorette.
Anything that has to do with the Kardashians, I’m there. I love this family. Out of the three girls, I would have to say, Kourtney is probably my favorite. Even though she has an awful baby daddy, I think she is so funny with her sarcasms. Anyways I am definitely a Kardashian fan!
Another celebrity that drives me crazy is, Jessica Simpson. From dumping Nick, starting a “media war” with Carrie Underwood, to her dumb show, and her family I cannot stand her. She just bothers me ughhh—why exactly is she famous.. Yeah, she has cute shoes and pocketbooks, but still she’s stupid.
My top most hated celebrities would have to be Spencer and Heidi Pratt. OMG—I cannot stand them. I cannot stand the links they go too to stay in the media and how all Heidi’s plastic surgery has made her look like a horse. I cannot stand how they think that they are normal and everyone else is crazy.
But I do love Heidi’s cd, it is awesome. I listen to it all the time and of course when I go to the beach I run around in my pink bikini and run through the seagulls singing higher, higher, higher :)

Last week I needed the oil changed in my car so Friday morning I woke up and decided I would go into town a little earlier and get the oil changed and then head into work. I get to Randy’s (the oil place) and park my car and go into the lobby to take a seat and I planned to read my book while I waited. Well little did I know that I was about to have a ten minute conversation with a complete stranger.
You know when you walk into a place where people are seated and waiting, you look for a seat that is the furthest away from everyone else. Well I walk in and there is a lady and a man sitting waiting and then a boy playing with blocks on the floor. I sit in a chair in the middle of the two, but with about 2 chairs between both of them. I sit down, pull out my book and it started.
“I have family from Michigan coming in this week and I have to get ready for them.”
When I hear the lady beside me say this I look around to see who she is talking too and when I turned my head and looked at her, I realized it was me she was talking to. I look at her to see if I know her and I realize that I have no clue who the lady is. After about 30 seconds of me sitting there not saying anything, I respond, “Oh really, that sounds like fun.” And then I turn back and look down at my book to try to read, hoping the lady gets the hint that I was not interested in striking up a conversation with her.
Well the hint was not gotten. She continued to talk to me about her family from Michigan and how they were bringing their two big dogs, named Lance and Master (dumb names) and how they were inside dogs, but they were not staying inside her house and tearing up everything. After the family conversation, she quickly moved on to tell me how her husband is in the army and he might be going back to Iraq and how he was gone for most of her son’s childhood. But her dad was in the army so she’s used to this lifestyle.
Then she moves unto how her kids going to Doby's Mill Elementary, which is where Mary works. So after telling her that Mary works there, she goes on to say, I know her, I know her, she works at Doby's Mill, I know her—she got a little too excited that she knew my sister. Then she continues to tell me all the teachers/staff that Doby’s let go, due too the price cuts. Which lead to the how much she hated Obama and how bad of a man he is.
Finally, Sandy (the lady that works at the oil place) walks in and I think to myself thank God, please let my car or her car be ready. Sandy calls up the lady to the counter. What does she say when she gets up to the counter to pay?? “I have family from Michigan coming in this week and I have to get ready for them.”
I just start shaking my head because I’m like OMG here we go again. While she is talking to Sandy her son is picking up the blocks from the floor and putting them back into the toy box that they have in the lobby. Well she keeps saying “Son, we have to go, pick up your toys. Son, we have to go, pick up your toys.” Well the boy already had the toys picked up and had already walked out the door and went outside. And she continued to say “Son, we have to go, pick up your toys,” having no clue that her son was already gone and had already picked up the toys. Finally the lady finishes paying and talking to Sandy about her family coming into town and she turns around and sees that her son is gone. She grabs her pocketbook and then drops her keys and walks off. Of course I had to go pick up the keys and I caught up with her and I say, “maim you dropped your keys” and she turns around and says “Oh I guess I can’t go anywhere without those” and then she says “We have to go, family is coming in” and walks off and I just turn around shaking my head, smiling.

What a life I have – I have good health, a roof over my head, food on the table and most of all, love and happiness. I have such a blessed life.
I have so many people in my life that provides me with love and happiness. First and foremost, the love I have for my Lord, Jesus Christ. If someone cannot find happiness in there life I challenge you to try Jesus. Love him with all you heart and soul and I promise you will truly feel the presence of God in your life and you will forever be changed because I know I am changed.
Then there is my wonderful loving husband. We have known each other and been together around eleven years and he still amazes me everyday. He shows me unconditional love everyday. Every morning when the alarm goes off and he rolls over and kisses me on my shoulder it shows me the love he has for me.
I know everyone says they have the best parents, but I honestly believe I do. My mom is truly my best friend and I know I can go to her with anything. She is such a wonderful lady who would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. My dad has sacrificed everything for his family. He probably has been on the road more in his life then he has been at home, but he does it all to support his family. Every time I think about how much my dad has given up to provide for my mom and my sisters, I get tears in my eyes because it just shows me the love he has for his family. I also have two wonderful sisters. Not a lot of people can say that they are close to their siblings, but Mary, April and I are. Like my mom I can go to them with anything. I look up to both of them for the wonderful Christian lives they both live. And my wonderful Meme and Poppy, who amaze me everyday with their devotion to God.
Then there is my precious angel, Makaylee. When Mary was pregnant with Makaylee, I was excited on becoming an aunt and I knew I would love her, but I had no idea how much. Makaylee has brought so much joy and laughter into my life and every time I hear her say Aunt Wawee my heart just melts.
Next are the five girls who are my true friends. I have never been the type of girl that believed that life was measured by the quantity of friends, but it’s measured by the quality of friends. And I have some amazing girls in my life. Maegen, my life-long friend. We have been friends since age four. Most of all my life’s adventures have been tackled with Maegen. She is the one I can tell anything too and know I will get great advice in return. Katie, my partner in crime. Katie and I met in middle school and always have great times together and we always share a million laughs together. Lauren, my roommate. We lived together for four-and-a-half years and have shared some awesome memories at Winthrop together. Brittany, the one I clicked with. One day we met and the next day we were staying up all night watching TV together and that continued for the next two years. I have never met someone that I clicked with so quickly with and then stayed great friends with. Caitlin, the fun friend. Whenever I am with Caitlin I am having so much fun. We always laugh and act silly together. Caitlin is also the type of person I can go a year without talking too and when we do finally talk, it is like no time has passed. I am so thankful for the five girls God blessed me with. I treasure all the memories I have made with each one of them.
I am also blessed with a job. Even though it is not my “dream” job and I’m not doing what I went to college to do, I still have job. And at my job I work with some great ladies. I have made some wonderful friendships at work. I laugh with them, cry with them -- maybe we do that a little too much, haha -- and vent about life and especially customers. But I love them all and they add a little more happiness in my life.
I thank God for bringing each on of you in my life and for all the memories we have shared together. I love you all and thanks for bringing happiness into my life.

As all of you know, I am a bank teller. With any job I’m sure all of you have your share of funny stories about your patients, students, customers, fellow employees and etc. well after two years of being a teller, I have a fair share of stories and I would like to share some of my favorites.
One day a lady drives up at my drive-thru. Like a lot of customers, the lady asked for her balance of her checking account. So I send her balance out and she looks at it and says “that’s way too much.” After thinking about the balance for awhile she then asks me if I could tell her what checks had not cleared yet. Well of course I am not going to know what checks have not cleared yet because I have no clue what checks you have written. So I try to explain to the lady that I would not have any clue what checks have not cleared, so what is her response? “Why don’t you know, you are the teller.” Well yes lady I’m a TELLER not a PSYCHIC, so I’m sorry I don’t know what checks you have written and people have not cashed. After a few minutes of me explaining this too her and with her not understand what I was saying she finally drives off. Sorry lady, next time I will work on my psychic abilities for you.
One day an old lady came thru the drive-thru. Like lots of customers, this lady had her little dog with her and the dog was super excited. The lady didn’t seem like she was too fond of the dog and she kept slapping at the dog to get him down from her window. But that didn’t stop the dog. As soon as the lady starts to drive off, what does the dog do? Jumps out of the old lady’s window and takes off. What does the lady do? Pulls off and stops for like 30 seconds and then drives off. Where is the dog? Running around the gas station parking lot that is beside us. What am I doing? Hanging out the window trying to get the dog to come back in our parking lot. After about 10 minutes of me and another teller hanging out the window yelling for that dog, one of our customers grab the dog and brings her inside. I look up the old lady’s phone number, figuring I would just have to leave a message, since I knew she wouldn’t go home without her dog, but to my amazement she answers the phone like nothing had happen. I tell her we have her dog and need her to come get him and after a lot of consideration it seemed like the old lady agreed and came and picked up her dog.
A scruffy man walks up to my counter one day, puffing away on his cigarette. Yes, inside the bank. I was so shocked at what I was seeing I didn’t even say anything because I was in disbelief of what I was seeing.
One lady came in on a Monday morning and told me about the broil on her rear-end that came up over the weekend. And how she soaked it and put cream on it, but nothing helped. So finally her husband took her to the hospital at 3 in the morning. And as that was not bad enough. She then continued to tell me that the doctor said there was nothing he could do about it until it came to a head and then he would have to suck the puss out of it. Omg, did you really need to tell your bank teller that information and especially in a lobby full of people.
So it continues with another rear-end story. A totally different customer comes in and informs me about the fisher she has. Now I don’t know if that is spelled correctly, but what I got from the conversation was that a fisher is a hole that grows in your butt crack and is very painful. She tells me how she can sit and how it is very painful to wipe after she takes a crap. She had surgery on it and she comes in after that and tells me about wrapping her butt up and blah blah blah. Well guess what? The surgery didn’t work and she has to get it done again. So what does that mean? I will get to hear all about her rear-end problems for at least another year. Lucky Me!
An older man comes to the bank at least three times a week and usually doesn’t have an outstanding balance. One day he comes in and asks if he can get $5 out of his account. I inform him that he only has a dollar in his account. So then he asks if he can get three dollars and I say you only have a dollar and so then he asks for two dollars. Haha, he ended up leaving with one dollar.
Those are just a few I could think of right off the top of my head, but I have lots more, so I might have to update. I hope they got a few little laughs.

I have been trying to read a lot more lately and once I get into book, I really do enjoy reading. It is just making that move and starting a new book I have trouble with. So I have been trying to read a book and once I finish I start another one right away.
My goal is to read all the Nicholas Spark books. Out of the 16 books he has written, I have read 5 and I have seen The Notebook, Message in the Bottle and A Walk to Remember, so I am not going to read those. So that totals 8 books to read, so half way there. I just finished reading, The Last Song, which was WONDERFUL. I have not seen the movie yet, but heard it was pretty good. I have never cried so much in one of his books. I usually tear up in all his books, but this one had me sobbing, haha. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it. It is Nicholas Sparks’ longest book, but I read 240 pages in one day, it is just that good. Currently I am reading, A Bend in the Road, which I have also heard it is a lot of people’s favorite book from his collection.
Other then the Nicholas Spark books, I have another list I would like to read.
MommyWood – Tori Spelling --- anything that has anything to do with people from 90210, I’m in)
Sweet Little Lies – Lauren Conrad
The Twilight Series
Sliding into Home – Kendra Wilkinson
If anyone has any other great books they have read, I would love to hear about them!

You know how you go somewhere like a wedding, church, a restaurant or anywhere and you find that one person you cannot stop staring at? You try your best not to stare you try to get your attention directed to something else, but you just cannot help but stare. And it is not because they are cute or anything--it is because they are SUPER goofy. Well that happened to me this weekend.
David, Lauren, Garrett and I went to Linda Hellstein, a college friend’s, wedding this past weekend at Historic Camden. Right when we all sat down, our attention went straight over to this goofy guy sitting across from us. Not only did he remind me of Patrick Norton, my Lugoff-Elgin friends will know who I’m talking about, but he was wearing this pastel yellow vintage-looking sport coat, which reminded me of Dr. Fisher’s famous vintage blue sport coat he wore everyday to Media Law. Anyways, all of us noticed him and of course I couldn’t keep my eyes off of him. Every time he made a move, my eyes went straight too him, just waiting for him to do something. Most people at the wedding opted to sit in the back because there was more shade, but in the back you couldn’t really hear anything. So what did Yellow Jacket Guy do during the wedding? Gets up and walks down the aisle to get a closer seat because he couldn’t hear. Whenever I saw him get up out of his seat, I grabbed David’s arm and was like, OMG what is he about to do? It ended up to be harmless, but still I was nervous he was about to run up to the front and say he objected or something. After the ceremony was over, we were all standing in the back talking to Josh and who comes up beside us? Yes, Yellow Jacket Guy. What do I notice beside his horrendous outfit?? He is wearing TEVA sandals. Yes, you heard me right, TEVAs. I haven’t seen someone wearing Teva sandals in probably ten years, well besides when I went white water rafting. But NEVER to a wedding. If anyone doesn’t know what Teva sandals are, go look them up.
So we get to the reception at the TenEleven Galleria and who do I start looking for when we get there, Yellow Jacket Guy, which I tried to switch his name to Teva Boy, but my crew was getting confused to whom I was talking about. When Yellow Jacket Guy got there he showed us some of his dance moves and that he knew how to shake his bum bum. I enjoyed watching how he devoured all the Hors D’oeuvres, which consisted of cheese cubes, Ritz crackers and baby sweet and dill pickles. So how he stayed so long at that table and continued to go back to that table just blew my mind. But anyways Yellow Jacket Guy or Teva Boy made my night.
Its little things like that, that just make you smile and makes your night. Whoever Yellow Jacket Guy is, I was truly grateful you were at the wedding because you made me smile!

It ended up to be harmless, but still I was nervous he was about to run up to the front and say he objected or something. After the ceremony was over, we were all standing in the back talking to Josh and who comes up beside us? Yes, Yellow Jacket Guy. What do I notice beside his horrendous outfit?? He is wearing TEVA sandals. Yes, you heard me right, TEVAs. I haven’t seen someone wearing Teva sandals in probably ten years, well besides when I went white water rafting. But NEVER to a wedding. If anyone doesn’t know what Teva sandals are, go look them up.
So we get to the reception at the TenEleven Galleria and who do I start looking for when we get there, Yellow Jacket Guy, which I tried to switch his name to Teva Boy, but my crew was getting confused to whom I was talking about. When Yellow Jacket Guy got there he showed us some of his dance moves and that he knew how to shake his bum bum. I enjoyed watching how he devoured all the Hors D’oeuvres, which consisted of cheese cubes, Ritz crackers and baby sweet and dill pickles. So how he stayed so long at that table and continued to go back to that table just blew my mind. But anyways Yellow Jacket Guy or Teva Boy made my night.
Its little things like that, that just make you smile and makes your night. Whoever Yellow Jacket Guy is, I was truly grateful you were at the wedding because you made me smile!
I am really excited about starting my new blog! I have been thinking about blogging a lot lately and decided, what the heck just go for it! I don’t think my life is too too interesting, but hopefully I will be able to entertain ya’ll. Living in a small town and working at a bank in the town, I hear and see a lot of things and most of the time it is very comical. So I will try to entertain with stories about my life, my precious little niece, working in my small town and of course I have to throw in some oldies but goodie’s. So read, enjoy and of course you better leave me some comments :)
