Keep on-a rockin' me bay-beh
Hey eRRybody, I know it's been fer- ever. Not too much to post about but I figured I can't keep my public waiting too long or my adoring public will become someone else's adoring public :)
Here is a pic of Stace and I last Sunday at our friend Adam's house - we went to see him perform at the 90's - he was AWESOME. I love the 90's, I always feel so comfortable there. But, alas it was a Sunday and we couldn't stay out too late.
I'm BEET red in this picture - my face looks mostly normal because I'm wearing about an inch of makeup. We had gone tubing at the Apple River the day before, and because we are so smart - didn't put on sunscreen because it was cloudy when we first got there - then the sun came out. I'm fine now - just itchy and peeling. Borderline leprosy.
Travie is still not so good - he actually had the worst of it cuz he's so fair - he's still in the pain stage - and he's still pink :) I teased him and said now his arms and legs match his nipples. HA!
We were standing in the bathroom together and I said to him "If people saw us together like this, you know what they would call us?" "What?" he said, and I said " The Pink Ladies." Hee hee.
Ahhhhh so I have the weekend all to myself, Trav went to Duluth with Simon to visit his muchachos and play a little poker. Carmela and I just got back from shopping. I bought her a new bigger crate and of course another toy.
I have been SO busy with my new job - AND I LOVE IT! It is beyond perfect for me. I cannot tell you how happy I am to be in an organization that is run so smoothly and by such great people - and they appreciate me and love me and need me - I'm hooked for life :) Seriously - it's that great.
I know this is random - but ya know what I thought about today? There should be a Netflix type of thing for books. I would do that.
Anyways, I'm off to Duluth next weekend after the trade show I have to be at for work. Slim Stacy and I are hitting the D town nightlife - they need a little shake up, donchathink?
Off to eat leftovers, shave my legs, lotion up, and go to sleep early! Tomorrow..... more shopping!
I leave you with the kind flowing words of the Bob of Marley:
"Baby, don't worr-eh bout a thing, cuz every little thing, is gonna be alright"
Have a happy weekend!

Last day at old job and new hair
Wow.
Could I look any more like my mom in this pic?
Seriously.
Well this is my new hair cut - not so different - but I like my bangs. The girl styled my hair like Bridget Bardot. It's cool.
I made it black and white because I haven't had a chance to dye it yet and the current color (in pics) makes me vomit in my mouth a little.
Mocha is the new color and I just hope it turns out how I want it.
Yeh for my last day! It wasn't sad or anything - I guess I was ready. So over it.
We have absolutely nothing planned for this weekend - and that's just how we want it.
:)
Have a happy 4th!
Love,
The Beans

THE CABIN!
Ahhhhhhh so much fun :)
Just so you know - the cabin rocks the house. Stace and I had the best relaxing time. We watched movies, went for a bike ride, played catch, played rummy, cooked some awesome cabin food, killed a spider the size of my head, swam on the floaties, and Stace caught a HUGE scary Northern while we were in the paddle boat!!!
Ok here is Stacy's fish story:
We woke up and decided to go and get some minnows from the market to fish with. We got the minnows and some bobbers and got prepared to fish. We went out about 20 feet from shore in the paddle boat and started to fish. I had just lost my first minnow when Stacy screamed "I GOT ONE!" She reeled in a 19 inch Northern! We were screaming and flailing because the fish was flopping around in the bottom on the paddle boat! We had to paddle to shore to get the hook out of it's mouth and to take a few pics. It was so exciting!
Here are some pics of the cabin trip - even the dogs had a blast! They look so cute together - and don't you love the one where Carmela is sunbathing on the towel? It's hilarious how much she loves the Sun.

Good news!!!
Ahhhhhhhhh the Cabin was good.
VERY stress free and we had fun!
I came home to a house taken over by boys and computers - so I have yet to get the pics off the camera and on to my computer. But that should happen tonight because we are rearranging the computers to the dining room and setting them up.
So I'll write about our cabin adventures tomorrow.
Sooooo member when I kept saying I needed to get a new job,I hate everyone here, and I'm so bored here I could poo?
Well I did it! Wait - I didn't poop - I GOT A NEW JOB!!!!!!!!
It feels so good to be leaving here and starting somewhere new. I found out that I got the job Monday afternoon, just as we got back into town from the cabin. My last day here is Friday.
This is so awesome! It pays more money, it's a better company, and such a relief!
I start next Wednesday after the 4th of July. I will be doing the same thing as I am now - an Office Manager - but I will be part of the core management team with the owner's of the company, I will be managing more people, and there are more departments of the company that I will be involved in.
Best of all - I know I will be appreciated. They need an Office Manager there, I'm not going to be filling someone else shoes, so I will get to pave my own path.
Yeh!
I'm treating myself to a little makeover for my new fresh start - tonight I'm dying my hair, Friday I'm getting it cut, and then I want to go and get a mani and a pedi sometime before Wednesday.
Since Friday is my last day here and I don't start until next Wednesday, I get a long weekend to get my house together too. I'm going to organize our closets and get rid of some clothes. Since we are moving the computers out of the 2nd bedroom - I'll be putting our old bed in there and actually using it as a guest room - but it will also still be my art room.
This is all so great for me - I can't wait to tell you all about my first day!
I'll try to post pics of my new look too :)

DUDE!
Good god am I bored.
Seriously, seriously bored.
I'm at work and it's so slow - I have NOTHING to do!
So I'll just tell you all about the weird ass dream I had last night...
I had a dream that Travis and I had twin boys - one with Red hair dressed in a green striped onesie and one with no hair in a blue striped onesie( I had no hair until I was 2 - and Trav had red hair). We couldn't decide on what to name them and in the mean time I had given birth to a baby girl - I didn't say her name in my dream so I don't know what we named her - and then to another baby boy, whom we named Owen - but in my dream all 4 babies were stayed the same age - and miraculously I was able to carry around all 4 of them on my own. So there I was at the kitchen counter making 4 bottles for four babies - who by the way were all just laying on the counter next to me nice and quiet. For some reason I was making the bottles with formula and milk - I have no idea why I was making them with milk - but by the time I was done making all 4 - The gallon of milk was almost gone and so was the container of formula. I made a comment to Trav "How can we go through a gallon of milk and a container of formula a day!" He was just sitting there with his mouth open. So I grabbed the bottles and went to grab all the babies - they were all staying quiet and still except the red haired twin in the green onesie - he had grabbed a knife and was trying to suck on it. I grabbed it from him - he wasn't hurt at all. So I scooped up all my children and went to Trav and asked him which two he wanted to feed. Before he could answer - I said I thought that we should finally name the twins - and I suggested that we name them Frankie and Charlie.
Then my dream ended.
Weird I know.
Cute - but weird.
I haven't found a theme for my blog yet - I was thinking something along the lines of Netflixing different exercise videos and trying them out and giving the reviews here on my blog. Whaddya think? Would you read a blog about that? I'm still not sure, but I think that's a pretty good idea.
I've been riding my bike lately, I forgot how much fun it was to ride my bike - it's been about 7 years since I've been on a bike! I found this awesome bike path near my house and it's great. I rode a little too far the other night though. I wanted to see how far the bike trail went - but before I knew it I was too far past my house and I was REALLY tired. I made it home and crashed into bed right away.
See how freekin bored I am! I'm talking about bike riding for crying out loud!
Seriously, seriously bored.
p.s. I just did spell check and when it came to "freekin" it suggested "foreskin." Haahaahaa!
