so this week i started my pottery class, its an 8 week class at the wellsville creative arts center. right near where i work. it was alot of fun. i tried atleast 4 pots and only 2 actually made it. but then i cut them in half to make sure the thickness was good. next week i should be able to keep one of them i hope. it was so fun though. the place is so cool too, its a coffee house/art place. they have lots of classes. it reminds me a bit of zopies and starbucks in one. oh and an art class. too bad no ska bass player works there. :)
no tv again this week.
we are headed to syracuse for the weekend and taking off monday so we can watch the superbowl up there. i bet grammy, grampy, and auntie b cant wait for the pom poms and the beast :)

no tv week
so this week ryan and i have sworn off two things, tv and beer. i am not allowed to watch tv and ryan is not allowed to drink beer. so far we have got alot done this week. we are trying to finish the basement and i am suppose to be helping. its hard though not watching my shows. on the weekend i can catch up though. tonight we get to watch 1 show - grey's cause our DVR can only handle two shows... so that is nice.
we are also going to bed early which i love. i wonder how long this will last. i am hoping a month. but we will see, ryan loves his beer. :)

shrimpies
i think thats how you spell it... anyways plural shrimp. thats what we won. 6 lbs of shrimp. we were lucky. i wanted some lobsta tail and filets but we didnt win that.
and its a steak and shrimp raffle, i'm sure little ol'olean isnt the only place that has them. i bet snobby manlius has them :P
overall the night was fun, we drank free beer, well i didnt since i was dd. but everyone else did. ate a lot of really good food. and won some shrimp. so we'll bring shrimp to the super bowl party this year.
so are you doing the amazing race pool becky??? i think you should.

SNOW!!!
we have over a foot of snow- it is so nice! we played last night after work with the pups in the snow and then again this morning. Linus and Murphy just love it. Patty not so much. She sits by the fence waiting to get back in. she is such a princess sometimes. we video taped the playing today. I've never seen Murphy so happy.
And Ryan got to use the plow on the 4-wheeler too. since we bought that plow i think we have only needed to use it 4 times.
Today i need to get some pictures copied and go to the grocery store. we are out of everything. tonight we are going to some raffle at the high school. should be a good time i suppose.
we saw Over the Hedge last night, i thought it was pretty good. funny. and it was only an hour which was a bonus. then we watched Ricky bobby. i thought that was good too. next netflix i have coming is breakfast at tiffanys. I'm so excited to see that one.
so everyone who is in for survior- send me your money

survivor pool
so i checked out survivor:fiji. there are 19 contestants this time. not sure how we can divide this one up. either we need 19 people and everyone gets just one person or we wait until after the first week and then draw names.
so let me know if you are in this time. (its $5)

grammar mistakes
i got an interesting email at work today, i'll post a portion of it because it really made me feel stupid...
i'll premise this with the fact that i sent him an email asking for something, and he was confused with what i wanted. so this is the third email iteration.
****Actually you were very UN-clear describing what you needed. I really enjoy doing this sort of stuff. But it is essential that you be precise in your project descriptions. Please re-read your emails for clarity and grammar mistakes. Next time you write to me, save it in drafts, then come back to it in an hour and proofread it. (I was an English major in college.) Since I work 2nd-shift, it won't get to me any sooner anyway.***
my parents are at the SU basketball game today, hopefully syracuse will win.
GO EAGLES!!!!

a long time
wow its been a while since i have updated, i cant believe i haven't got any harassing email from becky.
we are watching syriana tonight- i hope its good.
not too much is going on here in portville. my friend nicole and her husband are coming to visit for the weekend, we are having a game night at our house saturday night.
i think we are going to start trying again discipline patty and linus, get them to listen to us. murphy is well on his way to being the best listener, if only he would stop peeing on things. we went to ryans parents and he peed on their basement pole and the bed. agh.
ryan has been finishing the basement, he put up a little room for storage- it looks very nice. I'll have to take some pictures and post them. he finally finished the shed last weekend, started it in april 2005 - finished january 2007. record time :)

xmas
well christmas is over...and it left me with a stomach bug. i have not been feeling well for 3 days now. today i am doing better but everytime i eat i get a terrible stomach ache... and fill up really fast. maybe it will help the diet though :)
it was a great christmas though, i got tons of great stuff.- lots of hk. i havent used my mixer yet but tonight i might test it out. it was a jam packed weekend, we went out for ryans b-day. then saturday we got our annual pictures taken- i cant wait until we get them. then we went to the casino where i lost $40. sunday we cooked and watched/listened to football. monday was the big day- then i got sick.
work is a bit boring this week, i am the only person from my team here so its lonely. i have been getting out right at 4 though, so thats a plus. i feel a little guilty only working my 8 hours- isnt that terrible??
this weekend we are headed to SYR for NYE... cant wait, should be a good time

Happy Birthday Ryan!
Today is ryans birthday! he is 29!! so old...ha ha ha
i got him a book from kodak.com of murhpys pictures, its nice. and then a buffalo bills jersey. i told him he needed to pick a new team, one that was good. but he is stubborn and wouldnt so i got him a jersey.
everyone is coming today, i think i am ready. i had to clean off the beds that were full of presents and we put our christmas tree up wednesday night. Today ryan is picking up our new bench for the mudroom, so that should be all set for the weekend.
Tonight is a big night to go out, everyone i used to work with will be out so it should be a good time.
Does anyone have a male dog that they did not neuter??? Ours has taken to "marking his territory" all over our house. he has not peed in the house since his first week at it and now he has started this. the only thing i can think of is because he is male, esp since my girls have never done this. any help???

the holiday
oh i forgot, actually i didnt understand what your comment meant.
it was good, alittle slow at parts but i thought it was cute. its a good. i dont want to give a way any of the story line, but its a classic love story.

video camera
so excited, last night we got an early christmas present when we went to ryans parents for dinner. we got a video camera!!! i've been taping all night....its a bit boring at our house but the camera sure makes it more fun. this christmas we are going to have to do some newscasts i think.
i have to make some peanut brittle tonight, hopefully i will get my 10 dozen made. this weekend i am going to a cookie exchange party and need 10 dozen. lots of work.... but when i get 10 dozen cookies it will all be worth it.

I HATE home improvement projects
Lets see...As you know Ryan likes to do home improvement projects...Lots of them at once I should add.
yesterday was a typical plan for Ryan-
get up and go to the gravel pit (which was closed) go to hardware store to get some of his supplies (not all of them) go home dig a ditch across the driveway so we cant park in the driveway. Go hunting for a few hours. get the wagon from his parents so he can use the gravel he already spread somewhere else to use in the ditch he dug. at 7pm after dinner START plumbing a new washer and dryer line in the basement. mind you to put new lines in for the washer you need to cut the main water lines. meaning NO WATER in the house. well at about 9:45pm he cant finish cause he broke a piece of pipe and needs a new one, and no stores are open. So now its 10pm and we still don't have water because he cut the lines and cant finish it.
its now 1:33pm and we still don't have water and we still cant get in and out of our driveway. junior came over to help though- so maybe something can get finished.

Dog adventure weekend
It was quite an adventurous weekend with the dogs. Ryan started hunting yesterday morning so it was all me with the dogs. I got to sleep in since Ryan wasn't there pestering me to get up, so I slept until 10- 10:30 and I got up and decided to take the girls into town for a walk.... I cant walk the girls and Murphy so I was going to leave him in the fence. He didn't like that idea at all though- he kept trying to escape out of the fence when I was letting the girls out. So then I remembered I hadn't fed him breakfast. So I fed him and snuck out of the fence and we left. I was about 3 houses down on our main road when I looked in the rear view mirror and there was Murphy booking after me. I pulled over and put him in the car. If he wants to go somewhere he goes!!! It was so scary though, luckily I saw him or else he would have been on the main road for atleast a half hour. He could have been killed!
back to work tomorrow though.... ryan has the whole week off- lucky. i cant wait for thanksgiving...lots of good sales.
we made some more beer tonight, emilys amber, hopefully it will be ready to taste test for christmas- becky you better have your taste test license by then.

walks
i took the girls on a walk everyday this weekend, i am so proud, i havent done that in months i bet. they are such better dogs when i walk them daily. unfort. my new job is alot longer hours its seems than my last.
we went to see borat last night, i thought it was funny, but not THAT funny. it was so embarressing, i went to get popcorn with my old bag from the last time i went to the movies....and i walk into the concession area and looked at the popcorn bags on top of the counter and they changed the large bag!!! i turned around and walked back by the ticket guuy.... i was soooo embarressed! how dare they?! i still had a refill on that popcorn bag :) i saved it though, just incase they go back to the original bag. ha ha ha
today was a lazy day watching football....the bills almost won, which was good cause ryan wasnt too irrate during the game. other than that not too much happened this weekend.
